Of the dozen or so times I've visited Kona, I can't recall any instance that was particularly memorable, aside from sitting next to a certain local celebrity who shares title with a vegetable. And that was only mildly entertaining.
Kona has a good quality standard, that rates with many other mid-range chains. I do really appreciate the indoor/outdoor bar layout. That's a good design and works well for quite a few places here in town.
Negative points for Boca Park's parking situation. Sorry to pass those along to Kona, but I would do so for any of the establishments in that strip. Nothing like parking at REI and walking across a blazing parking lot to have a beer and appetizers.
Sufficed to say, I will likely return to Kona on occasion, as it's a good central meetup location for most people on the West side of town. Maybe something will surprise me one day and I'll up the marks on my review.
