Hidden gem for sure! We walked by this place a couple of times because we're not wine drinkers, but it's more than wine. It's a full bar plus food (their prime rib was unbelievably delicious! ) and their prices can't be beat!

Wow! I am blown away with the level of skill and professionalism of the team here. Attention to detail, friendly, and quality are how I'd describe this place. It happens to be a bonus that the prices and options are top notch.

After a day of eating with a vacation mindset (think: malasadas), my husband and I were looking for something a liiittle lighter for dinner one evening. Most of the nearby restaurants close to our hotel were either closing soon or offered heavier meals, so I was happy to come across Aloha Wine Bar online. Despite the name, it has an interesting food menu in addition to their drinks. We were able to walk over from the hotel and were glad to see a few other customers there without it feeling overly busy, so we were able to sit right away. We ordered a few of drinks, some sushi dishes to share that really hit the spot, and a flatbread pizza to round everything out. The bartender (whose name I unfortunately forgot) was super friendly, and it was clear he enjoyed chatting and engaging with the customers. That always adds to the experience :) If I "had to" complain about anything, it would be that the pizza took quite a while to come out compared to the drinks and other food. That being said, it wasn't a dealbreaker and we didn't mind much since we were not in a rush. We were on vacation, after all. Tbh I'm not sure when we will make it back to Big Island or to this particular area, but if/when we do, I would absolutely consider coming back to try more of their food and drinks. We had a really lovely time here.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Aloah Wine Bar exceeded all expectations! Despite not trying wine, Mark crafted a custom drink tailored perfectly to my taste preferences. His expertise extended beyond just drinks; his knowledge of the island and its unique flavors added an extra layer of enjoyment to the experience. The atmosphere was inviting and relaxed, allowing for a truly comfortable evening. The drinks were nothing short of fantastic, with each sip delivering pure delight. A visit to Aloah Wine Bar wouldn't be complete without indulging in "The Cat's Meow" shooter – it's an absolute must-try! Mark's impeccable service and mastery of mixology make this establishment a standout destination. Make sure to stop by and let Mark work his magic! PS: The edamame was great too!

We enjoyed this place so much we came back twice during our time on island! Bartender Mark was AMAZING! Friendly, entertaining and personable! 10/10 would highly recommend. Happy hour can get crowded, but usually not too long of a wait for a space.

Best kept secret on the island. Finding a good prime rib dinner for $20 anywhere (much less Hawaii) is a gem. The portions are generous and the food is tasty. Good prices on wine and beer, and the cocktail prices are reasonable for the area. Sabrina keeps moving, taking care of multiple tables and the bar top with a friendly but efficient demeanor. We enjoyed chatting with her. We will be back!

We had an amazing dinner at Aloha Wine Bar tonight! We started with the Tiger Maki sushi and it was absolutely incredible. We also shared the shrimp dynamite, calamari, and the sunrise fries, all were super tasty and packed with flavour. We tried a few different drinks as well. My husband had a beer and a couple of rum & cokes, and I had an awesome espresso martini and the refreshing Spritz Del Conte. Everything was delicious. A huge shoutout to our server, Mark, who was genuinely one of the best servers I’ve ever had. He was so knowledgeable, friendly, and gave us great recommendations. Such a sweet person and a huge part of why our night was so great. On top of all that, the prices were incredible & honestly the best deals we’ve seen on our trip, especially for the quality. We would recommend this place to absolutely anyone. Can’t wait to come back!

Aloha Wine Bar was an absolute highlight of our visit to Queens’ Marketplace. The atmosphere is relaxed but polished, making it the perfect spot to unwind with great food and drinks. The service was exceptional from start to finish. Mark, Justin, and Sabrina were all incredibly welcoming, attentive, and knowledgeable. They made great recommendations and genuinely made the experience feel personal rather than just another stop. The food was outstanding. The dynamite shrimp absolutely lives up to the hype — perfectly crispy with a great balance of heat and flavor. Everything we ordered was fresh, well-presented, and clearly made with care. The drinks were just as impressive. The wine selection is solid, and the cocktails were creative and well balanced. It’s the kind of place where you can sit, relax, and enjoy a couple of rounds without feeling rushed. Between the great service from Mark, Justin, and Sabrina, the delicious food, and the excellent drinks, this place easily earns five stars. If you’re in the Waikoloa area, Aloha Wine Bar is definitely worth stopping by. Highly recommend — we’ll absolutely be back. 🍷🌺
