This is a nice family owned business with convenient hours and location. They are open for breakfast, lunch and dinner. I'm a vegetarian, so I tried the Vegetable Fried Rice. It was decent. The portion was extremely large. I was able to get two meals out of it. Based on this experience, I would be willing to return and try other menu items. Service was very polite and the atmosphere was comfortable. I love the way they use their windows to display their menu!

The restaurant is located near Kona Airport, and the front desk is run by a pair of twin brothers. It serves typical Hawaiian-style American Chinese food with very generous portions. Everything is served with disposable tableware, which I find convenient. The taste leans toward the local Hawaiian flavor and is quite good. Next time I come to the Big Island, I’ll definitely stop by here after landing—have a meal and then head to the Costco next door for shopping.

The food was delicious, and the serving size was huge. Clean restaurant and fast service. When ordering, the young gentleman explained what other choices there are. And you aren't rushed when ordering. Since first posted, my family has been to Rainbow Cafe 2 other times, and I will be adding more pictures as my family and I try out more new dishes.
