Marzo’s Country Sports Bar & Grill isn’t just another place to grab a meal. It’s a gathering place built by local people, for local people. Founded by longtime community leader Ikaika Marzo and his partners, the restaurant brings together great food, live entertainment, and genuine aloha. As a result, it has quickly become a favorite destination for both residents and visitors.
Local Beef, Raised in Hawaiʻi
One of Marzo’s greatest points of pride is its commitment to serving locally raised Hawaiʻi beef. The beef comes directly from Ikaika’s network of ranch land on Big Island. Because the cattle are raised locally, guests enjoy fresh, high-quality beef while supporting Hawaiʻi agriculture. It’s a daily sight to see local fishermen and farmers delivering fresh food to Marzo’s.
Every meal reflects the care that goes into responsible ranching and stewardship of the ʻāina. In addition, every purchase helps strengthen Hawaiʻi’s food security and food sovereignty by investing in local producers.
More Than a Restaurant
Great food is only part of what makes Marzo’s special.
The restaurant was intentionally created as a place where neighbors can gather, families can celebrate, and visitors can experience authentic East Hawaiʻi hospitality. Whether you’re stopping in after work or spending an evening with friends, you’ll immediately feel welcomed by the friendly staff and the spirit of aloha.
Live Music & Community Events
Entertainment is a big part of the Marzo’s experience.
Throughout the week, local musicians perform live, creating an atmosphere that celebrates Hawaiʻi’s incredible talent. The restaurant also hosts karaoke nights, line dancing, Happy Hour, and other community events. As a result, there’s always something happening that brings people together.
Furthermore, Ikaika envisioned Marzo’s as a place where Puna’s artists could perform on a quality stage while sharing their gifts with the community.
