Hilo, HI 96720

History

Ratana's opened with a mobile trailer at the Hilo Farmers Market in May 2006. I sold the trailer to my friend Ou and moved to our current location on Kilauea Ave. Not too far from our old location.

Specialties

Green papaya salad and sweet Japanese cucumber salad. A favorite desert is our mango sticky rice. We do not use fish sauce unless it is requested. We do use tamarind seed paste in our sauce to be more authentic.
