Julia Tries 33 Of The Most Popular Menu Items At Kona Grill | Delish

This has been the most honest episode in this series. Don’t think I’ll be trying this place out anytime soon

I’m so impressed with the evolution of this series, Julia. Been watching you for years, and your comfort and playfulness in front of the camera is always a joy. Keep up the great work!

You guys should do a “Julia’s meal” at each restaurant like build your perfect meal of what you tried appetizer meal and dessert with drink

This restaurant looks and sounds like they don't know who they are. So they tried their hands at all food genres and kinda came up short on all of them.

In Mandarin, lychee is pronounced as "li-zhi" hence "lee-chee" while as in Cantonese, lychee is pronounced as "lai-zi" which is translated into "lie-chee". Both are correct and ok to use, the pronunciation derives from the two different languages! Much love 😚❤️

She was brutally honest in this episode. I’ll be in no hurry to eat here 😂

For numerous reasons, this seem like peak Julia. Great episode.

I appreciate the increased honesty in this episode vs other/older episodes which were clearly editorialized and overly positive.

With a Mom intent, I have to say Julia's hair and nails were perfection today! She's always beautiful but outstanding today!

Today is my last day at Kona Grill in Scottsdale, and there are a couple of things that you said that kinda made me laugh. You mentioned that the fries reminded you of McDonald's, and that would be because they are McDonald's fries, just more seasoned. It also amused me that your fav appetizer was the seabass sliders, as at least in my experience, guests don't care too much for it. There is not always a live DJ. At my location, we only have a DJ on Friday and Saturday nights and Sunday mornings. Again, at least at my location, we don't do unlimited Kona Mosas. They are 3 dollars each, and only from open to 2 pm on the weekends. Kitchen and Sushi also over-plated your food. Normally, they are served with much less garnish, almost half-hearted at times compared to what you were served. Overall, check what revies say before going to the restaurant. There may be a lot of 5-star reviews, but more often than not, if a review mentions a server by name, it's not an honest review. My manager has on occasion, given guests 10 dollars off their check, in exchange for posting a review with the server name in it, to improve online presence.

Joe’s Crab Shack please! Love this show❤️

I would check the Yelp reviews for your local Kona Grill before visiting. In Gilbert, AZ NOTHING looked the same as served here. Lots of one-star reviews too. Julia was given far better prepared and better quality dishes then reality for the rest of us.

You'd be surprised how many people, young and old are getting into the old fashion. One of my favorite cocktails👍🍸

I’ve never had a good meal at Kona Grill, appreciate your honesty while still trying to keep it respectful

More honesty like this! Love it!

You know a restaurant is trying it when they start in Arizona with a Hawaiian theme...I can't believe how thick they cut their jalepeno...when you get it in sushi its usually razor thin which makes it more manageable physically as well as spice. Since they vary so much from pepper to pepper, it seems insane to put such a massive chunk on every piece...

You know how the food is when the salad is the favorite 😂

I use to watch these incessantly when my eating disorder was really bad I feel like now I can truly appreciate them which is nice

"I'll let you decide what that means" hahaha I love the honesty

I would love a series that's "Julia eats at a chain, describes food, and then June makes it from scratch, but it's 10000 times better." I love synergy. :D
