Love, love, love eating Eggs Benedict and having a Bloody Mary and you don’t have to get up early to have breakfast here!

I was back again at Bongo Ben’s for a beautiful sunset and good food. Bongo Ben's Island Cafe on the Big Island of Hawaii has quickly became the "Go-To" place for a group friends who came to Kona for a conference a year or so ago because it has an extensive menu and delicious food, outside ocean-view...and spectacular Kona sunset! We ate there three days out of the five were on Hawaii! It didn’t disappoint!

We were seated quickly, every table has an ocean/Bay view. Good food, just pretty expensive for breakfast. $38! and all we had was two plates of B&E. However, there's a burger beer and fries for $13 so maybe breakfast isn't the meal to eat there. Not complaining, just a reality check.
