Like the welcoming state that inspired our name, Kona Grill offers global food, friendly people, and unique cultures — all in one place. Since opening our doors in 1998 in Scottsdale, Arizona, we have strived to make every experience exceptional, while expanding to dozens of locations. But no matter how much we grow or where in the world we open next, the Kona culture will always stay true to the values our restaurant was built on.
Kona Grill was built on Exceptional Experiences and meals that create memories. Our global menu features contemporary American favorites, award-winning sushi, and specialty cocktails — all made from scratch using only the freshest ingredients. While the places that inspire our cuisine may be far away, a welcoming place that offers inspiring food, ultimate hospitality, and diverse choices is right around the corner.
