Hilo Restaurants: Uncle Billy's, Hawaiian

Uncle Billy's


Address: Hilo Bay Hotel, 87 Banyan Dr., Hilo, HI
Phone: 808/

Price range: ¢-$$

Location: Hilo


Uncle Billy's is pure Hawaiian kitsch -- right out of 1930s Hollywood -- but the thatch roofs, tinkling capiz-shell wind chimes, and Tahitian-print curtains add to the fun, as does a free nightly hula show.

The show and the ambience are the reasons to visit; the food is so-so.

Choose from mahimahi meunière, teriyaki chicken, and local specialties.
