We went with family in January to dine at the Volcano House The Rim Restaurant. Food (most had Mahi, Opakapaka & Kampachi, one steak and one slider plate (teen did not like them as well as the sliders at Ponds...)) was nicely presented & well prepared, and service was very good and accommodating. Also, they have worked to try to locally source much of their offerings.
Of course, for the east side, the prices are higher than most any venue, but where else can you get the view of the glowing crater?

For anyone who has not been since the renovation. Uncle George Lounge is way more elegant than before (bowling alley chic was my old impression). One of the neat things to do on a clear night is to enjoy the lanai service on deck of the lounge, outside on a clear night!
Many have pro/neg impressions on the new lobby, some of the old charm is gone, but all of the old decline is also gone, much more light & bright. Our credit card can verify that visiting teens & twentysomethings LOVE the retail offerings!
