Mi's Italian Bistro - Kona, HI

With my husband, we had the luck to stumble upon Mi's during our trip to Kona in May 2009. From the moment we went through the door, we were impressed with the comfortable atmosphere and the friendliness of the owners. The menu made our mouths water. We had as appetizer fresh focaccia with Mi's signature dipping (fresh diced tomato, basil, garlic, sweet onion, Parmesan cheese, balsamic vinegar and extra virgin oil). They bake their own bread and made their own pasta. It was simply delicious. My husband chose the pizza and I went for the Macadamia Nut Crusted chicken breast, stuffed with Port Salut, Maytag Blue and fresh basil and served with oven roasted potatoes (to perfection, I have to say), green beans and a creamy tomato pesto sauce. It was simply amazing. The chef and co-owner, Morgan Starr, has been trained in New York. The wine selection was very nice and the desserts sinful. Prices were reasonable, the food and service were worth it. We wanted to come back, but it was closed on Monday and Tuesday and were flying back on Wednesday. I cannot wait to come back to Kealakekua and eat there, I highly recommend this restaurant to everybody for any occasion!
