“Ahi Poke was just like my Momma's! Bento plates are legit! You can buy them already made or make one in your own combination. Come in early because they run out fast!”
“A local and very cute market, you can find many typical culinary things, a gem because you feel like you belong to its culture, there is so much to choose from that you don't know but that makes you try, there are many local and foreign things and like I said quite native which makes it adorable, it seems like everyone is family and they are super nice”
“The best poke we found in Maui is from Tamura's. They have lots of options, flavors are all interesting. We got both ahi tuna and we were craving some more after our trip to Maui. Service is fast. You pick two flavors for a bowl and they prepare it immediately.”
“So impressed that I found someone on staff who really understood coffee taste profiles and he helped me choose a coffee without any fruity notes - just so happens he was not a fan of fruit forward coffee either! As a home coffee roaster, it was great that they had a knowledgeable coffee person there who suggested the Maui Oma Haleakala Sunrise blend. It was perfect! Wish I would have got his name so I could laud him here! Thanks to the friendly guy with a full beard!”
“Their poke bowl is amazing! We decided to try the Hawaiian and spicy flavors. We grabbed a bowl and headed to the beach to eat it.The rice becomes a bit tough once it cools down, but that's the only issue.”
“I am not a huge fan of Safeway stores, but they are usually in convenient locations and offer a lot of selection, maybe too much selection. I do frequent the sushi options, the bakery, and sometimes vegetables if they are local. You really have to shop around for bargains, as I find prices here are higher than other outlets. But when they have premium ice cream on sale, stock up!”
“My mom and my aunt use to own this market. We only sold groceries and kimchee/banchan. The new owner is a young chef and she brought in hot foods, bentos and innovative and out of this world banchan (Korean side dishes)!!! You must must try! Her bibimbap is better than the restaurants on Maui! And her kimchee fried rice is on point as well as her Korean sushi (kimbap)! Not only do I love coming here because it reminds me of my childhood working here, but I love coming here because everything is so good! It's so wonderful to see how much better this new owner has made this place and I hope you all try it out, you won't regret it! Nomo mashiso!!!!”

401 Ho'okahi St STE 4, Wailuku“Good selection of frozen and packaged items. Also a good selection of fresh produce. The lady helping us was the absolute sweetest human being ever. Good place to check out if you're looking for Filipino groceries and/or asian groceries in general.”
“This unassuming Asian market is located on Lower Main St. in Wailuku and carries mainly Filipino offerings, but other Asian and local products as well. There's some interesting finds here if you take the time to look around and they have more variety than some of the other little Asian markets around town. My favorites are of course, the snacks. From chips to chocolates - many of their products remind me of my childhood vacations in the Philippines. They also have a hot food line that feature your typical Filipino dishes like pork n peas, dinakdakan, adobo, chicharon, empanada, lumpia, and more. You can get them in plate lunch style form or containers to serve as entrees.What I really come here for though is the Mais Con Yelo -- the only place I know on island that offers this delectable cool treat. Mais Con Yelo is a layered, Filipino dessert that consists of sweet corn, shaved ice, evaporated milk, leche flan, and a scoop of CORN & CHEESE ice cream. I love corn and cheese ice cream and the whole combo of ice and evaporated milk are SO good! It's similar to a halo halo, but with corn. For whatever reason, the last time I got it, the aunty made it so so good that I can't stop thinking about it and will probably go get more tomorrow. Hahah. Speaking of ice cream, they also have the Magnolia boba ice creams here in various flavors and I really, really like that ice cream. I've only seen it around a few stores here so if you like that, you can find it here too.Check them out sometime!”
“Stopped by for cold drinks after going to the Maui swap meet. Peach juice! It was a perfect, convenient stop-off. Auntie working here is super kind and complemented us on our mini-cooler from daiso. Healthy food! Kimchi's and banchan here are so authentic and fresh made delicious! So glad we found this amazing little gem of a market, imports and freshly prepared Korean staples! Good ambience. Fresh veggies!! Would love to go back and try more!”
“This is the Flagship Foodland! It's huge with a very fresh produce, fresh meat butcher section, great seafood poke station, R. Fields Deli, Bakery, huge diversity of Asian foods, American Savings Bank. Well stocked and great prices! Pretty Amazing.”
