Fodor's Expert Review Verna's Drive-In
Verna's is tried-and-true among locals, who come for the juicy house-made burgers and filling plate lunches, and the price is right with a burger combo that includes fries and a drink. If you're hungry for more, try the traditional Hawaiian plate with either laulau, beef stew, chicken long rice, or lomilomi salmon (salted salmon with onions, tomatoes, and green pepper). Whatever you choose, you won't leave hungry. Outdoor seating is available. Verna's is one of the few joints in Hilo that's open 24 hours a day.
