Fodor's Expert Review Pueo's Osteria
$$$
The Kohala Coast
Italian
Hidden in a shopping center in residential Waikoloa Village, this late-night destination serves dinner from 5 until 10 pm: pueo means "owl" in Hawaiian, and refers to the restaurant's "night owl" concept. Renowned executive chef James Babian (Four Seasons Hualalai, Fairmont Orchid) serves multiregional Italian offerings that combine farm-fresh ingredients with fine imported Italian products like prosciutto from Parma.
