Jackie Rey's Surf & Turf: filet mignon and garlic jumbo shrimp with house demi-glace in Kailua-Kona
Date night

Date Night in Kona

Steak, wine and a table that feels like an occasion

Book the table. Bring the occasion. We take it from there. 

Order the Surf & Turf, a 5 oz filet mignon and garlic jumbo shrimp under house demi-glace. It is our signature plate for the night that matters. Pair it with a bottle from the Wine Spectator list or a JRey's '44 Mai Tai, and finish with the chocolate pistachio torte.

Tell us what you are celebrating when you book. Anniversaries and birthdays get the table set for the occasion, and we can add leis and a custom dessert to make it yours.

Common questions

Is Jackie Rey's good for a date night in Kona?

Yes. Jackie Rey's is Kona's steakhouse for date nights and celebrations: a relaxed room on Kuakini Highway, the signature Surf & Turf, a Wine Spectator list and craft cocktails. Book on OpenTable and tell us the occasion.

Can you do something special for an anniversary or birthday?

Yes. Mention it when you book and we will set the table for the occasion. We can add leis and a custom dessert, and for parties of 18 or more, call us and we will plan it with you.

What should we order for a special dinner?

Share a pupu, then the Surf & Turf or the Mochiko Crusted Fresh Catch, and finish with the chocolate pistachio torte and Kona coffee gelato. The JRey's '44 Mai Tai is the drink to start with.

Which night is best for wine?

Thursday. Every Thursday, all bottles of wine are 50% off. It is the night to open the bottle you would otherwise talk yourself out of.

How late can we book?

Dinner runs nightly until 8:30 PM, and the last table is seated at 8:15 PM. Book ahead for weekends.
