My husband and I originally saw this on Somebody Feed Phil. Then we read the Yelp reviews and knew we wanted to try it. The evening starts with outdoor games. Then they give you a history of the ranch before you eat dinner. After dinner, there is dancing, s'mores, and you're free to explore the ranch. The buffet dinner was fantastic. There were rolls, asparagus, salad, mashed potatoes, baked beans, BBQ chicken, and prime rib. We also had mac nut pie for dessert. Water, juice, and soda were included and you could pay cash for alcoholic beverages. You can go up for seconds of anything you like, so we left stuffed. The sunset view was beautiful and it was such a fun evening. I'd highly recommend it!

This ranch is an absolutely stunningly beautiful location. The BBQ dinner is very tasty... Buffet style. You get to eat with a panoramic view of the sun dropping into the Pacific. A very memorable experience.

Fabulous dinner at the ranch. The food was terrific. The view and sunset were spectacular. The entertainment was wonderful. A nice surprise was the star gazing. We saw Saturn and 2 of its moons as well as Jupiter and 3 of its moons. It's well worth the trip.

Incredible experience. We had a wonderful time with our kids aged 8 and 5. Pictures don’t do it justice to show how breathtakingly beautiful the ranch is. The experience was well thought out with plenty of activities - cornhole, horseshoes, lasso, giant telescope, brand your own wood craft, s’mores, dancing to the fantastic live music, and the campfire story (which was my husband’s favourite part). And the food was fabulous, prime rib was perfectly cooked. It’s a great family run operation and you can feel they put a lot of love and care into their work. We cannot recommend this enough and will definitely be back again.

Our trip to the ranch was wonderful! The drive up was gorgeous, the activities were engaging. Especially the live music, dancing and the cow wrangling. The food was top notch. The prime rib was mouth watering!!

Right up there with shave ice and swimming with manta rays, Paniolo ranch BBQ is a must do while on this island!!! Let me tell you why. This place is on an actual, functional ranch established in the 1800s. The Hawaiian cowboy is a piece of history I had never heard about, and was presented in an engaging, storytelling method. The view from the ranch is stunning and the sunset is gorgeous. Great photo op. Combine this with yummy food (including amazing desserts), and talented live music it’s the most fun activity my husband and I have done all week. It is absolutely worth the scenic drive from wherever you are coming from. There are a ton of extra activities, such as lassoing fake cows, cornhole, and horseshoe. We can picture ourselves taking our kids here sometime in the future. All the staff are extremely friendly, and did I mention the food? Also, wear a light jacket. Enjoy!

Both my self and my cousin had a great time. We visited Paniolo BBQ on 02/15/2023. What a treat to learn the extraordinary story of the Hawaiian cowboys and how they got to be some of the most respected in the world. Also, from the minute you step in the ranch, you are made to feel like home and everyone is exceptionally friendly. The food is fantastic and with great salad and meat selections. Lots of entertaining activities like learning how to lasso, play cornhole and horseshoe games. Dave and his wife are very talented musicians and will play music while guests enjoy dinner and even teach you how to dance! Overall it was a phenomenal and genuine experience and highly recommended it!

Wonderful Night. Food was amazing. Their Team was kind, knowledgeable and very helpful. Beautiful night. We will recommend this to all of our guests that come visit us here.
