Oceans Sports Bar & Grill

giving this place a 3.5. we did go there on a Sunday night after 9:30PM so it was pretty quiet.  the bartender was cool enough to accommodate some of our song requests and open up the dance floor.  i'm sure this place gets packed on friday and saturday nights. drinks were ok but maybe we will return another night when it's busier.

A fun place, ESPECIALLY for "Taco Tuesday".
Far from fine dining, this place is fun and good food at very reasonable prices for near-waterfront dining right off Ali'i.
Service can vary, though is almost always good or better.  On our most recent visit, the service was very good, and the waitress was attentive and insured our large group was happy, hydrated (with drinks and water), and that we got our orders promptly, enjoyed the food, and had everything we needed.
If you're looking for a casual, sports-bar type restaurant with tasty tacos (and very fresh tasting fish) near the waterfront... this is the place.  
Very good pricing on drinks and food (at least the tacos on tues/thurs).  On my most recent visit we had a party of 8 enjoying their fill of tacos and MANY drinks (for probably an hour and a half at least), with a total bill before tip of $205.
Tasty, fun, bargain.
This place is great and I will continue to come here frequently.

Everytime I visit Kona, I have to go to Oceans.  I like that the atmosphere is laid back and I have always had great service from the bartenders.  They have enough material and signs to inform any customer of their specials, and yes the tacos are great.... So are the Red Bull and grape vodka's!
