I can understand why The Strawberry Patch has its loyal fans. You'll find nicely some prepared meals in an unassuming environment at modest prices. Many fans, but I am not among them.This is a BYOB place located alongside the busy Hawaii Belt Road and you will soon find out that truck, motorcycle and car noises will be your dining companions. You'll find the dinner menu is loaded with pasta, cheese, and chicken dishs but no red meat. There are also three curry dishes with various levels of spicyness and your choice of vegetarian, chicken, or shrimp.The very best thing was the baked brie board. This is an outstandingly beautiful serving of baked cheese artfully surrounded by fruit and edible flowers. My yellow curry was bland and I wish I had opted for something spicer. My wife's chicken picatta featured a gristly flattened and breaded chicken breast portion topped with a nice caper/lemon sauce. It was adequate, at best.Our consensus was that this was our least favorite meal on the Big Island.

What a cracker of an eatery. Everything we had was delicious, especially the seafood pasta which is easy to mangle in lesser hands,. The owners young children took delight in serving the tables and good on them for learning responsibilities in this regard. This place as far as we can tell is the absolute stand out in the area around Captain Cook. We heartily agree with everyone who has rated this highly. It is wise to book as it is very popular, but we walked up and got an inside table on a week night in summer. Plenty of car parking off street.

Great place for a little celebration and some very tasty pasta! Oceanside table was the perfect place - not a bad seat on the patio as everywhere there is a great view. Service was excellent. Pasta was al dente and perfect. Fish special was wonderful and full of flavor. Minor disappointments was a charge for a bread basket refill (but worth every penny) and also the added on charge for the kitchen staff in addition to the wait staff. If you believe your kitchen staff should be paid more then pay them more. The food was excellent! A definite must visit in Kona!
