We enjoyed a late lunch on a Saturday afternoon. Wish we had arrived a little earlier as we only got to hear the tail end of the guitarist (which my kids loved.) My husband and I both ordered the blackened mahi lunch plate. I wish I had mine grilled because it was a little too spicy for me, but it... More

My wife and I have been to Kona Beach Cafe several times. Each time the food was great. The fish tacos are awesome. Good beer selection and a great outdoor area where the kids can run around and play. Good place to hang with friends for a beer or have a quick dinner with the little ones. Plus it is... More

We live local but our daughter and her boy friend was here visiting from Oregon and they were craving fish taco's. The outdoor setting really got "the kids" into the Florida mood. My wife ordered the beef hot dog with turkey chili and she enjoyed it, her fries were hot and not greasy, Our daughter and her friend had the... More

So glad that you enjoyed our "laid-back" atmosphere and gourmet beach food. We hope that you found time to wander into our Outback and played some of our outdoor games - cornhole, bimini ring toss, ladder golf and kanjam. We have live music Thursday - Sunday and surf movies on Tuesday nights, so if you're in the area, please stop... More

We are regulars here and still get shorted with what we order. A group of 6 of us went for dinner, each meal was missing something, needed to ask server to fix several times, also very limited beer selection. Food is good, not great and inconsistent!

We wish that you had brought your concerns to our attention. Sometimes our servers do get the orders wrong, and we're sorry for that. As for our beer selection, we hope that you have tried the craft beers on tap in our Outback as well as the 8 drafts we have at our main bar. We also offer 31 different... More

Ordered nachos with chili, recieved nachos minus the chili, also ordered a mahi fish taco and did not receive the guacamole. So, the taste of the food is excelent, but make sure that you get what you asked for. The missing items were not added to our bill.

Have to say we were in Jensen Beach for 7 days and at the very least ate 5 different times within that time frame at the Kona. Props for the ice cold PBR and Pacifico beer, love, loved them. Maybe it was the heat, maybe the music, maybe the outdoors-ness, nah...it was the beer. Fish tacos, (blackened mahi mahi) were... More

My five year old niece asked to go to the restaurant " with the surfboard" so we stopped at the Kona Beach Cafe. We were greeted by the owner, Frank Wacha. Frank is a surfer who has recently become somewhat of a celebrity since his run in with a bull shark while surfing at Jensen Beach. He is a very... More

Once again the Kona Cafe in Jensen beach Fla came through with a great evening of live bluegrass music and delicious food! Don't miss the fish tacos and share a pitcher of draught beer with a friend.

Full dinners too. A great litle place for an afternoon hot dog and a cold beer. Small place - all outdoor seating, outdoor bar and enough parking. Had dinner there once - no complaints, been to the bar a few times for a quick lunch. Live music, nice staff, good bartenders. Mom and Pop style place. I stronly recommend Kona's... More
