According to the app, the items I wanted were in stock but in fact, they did not have the items in stock. In fact, one of the items, men's body wash was almost completely barren. The shelves looked empty as if they were moving the products to another area. This is not only frustrating but also a big waste of my time. In the past, I've had employees tell me that the app doesn't reflect their stock. Perhaps this is just a drawback of the app but perhaps they should indicate with a note stating the store may not have the item in question.

KTA Express, you're a lifesaver!…read more I came to the KTA Express store twice in recent weeks, and this store/supermarket totally saved me from having to drive back in town (Kailua-Kona) to buy something I sorely needed. I was working at a local bank next door doing some lock work when I realized I needed a few 9-volt batteries to fix something. Being that I was traveling, and did not have access to all my normal gear, I asked the bank people where was the nearest store? Originally I was worried that I might have to drive all the way back to Kailua-Kona to get what I needed, but luckily KTA had a store in Kealakekua. Walked over to the KTA store, as it was just a hop, skip, & jump away from the local bank (where I was working). Got what I needed, and time & resources were saved that day! Last week Thursday I found myself back in Kealakekua working at a credit union this time. No, I didn't need anything in particular for the credit union this time, but after finishing the job at the credit union, the KTA store was very convenient for me to get some drinks & some grub. Apparently the KTA Express has a vendor - L&L Drive-In that does pre-made - ready to eat bentos. Some of the items looked pretty good, so I decided to give it a shot & picked up a mini BBQ Chicken & Noodle Bento. The mini bento was pretty tasty, and best part of it all is that I didn't have to go far to get my lunch grub. KTA Express in Kealakekua, you're a lifesaver! Lol!

Parking: They have a small parking lot. Very easy to find. Free parking. This was a large market. It had everything a grocery store provided, but products were a bit more expensive than usual.

Why not Safeway I asked, there will be a deli and we can get a few things. Did. Easy to get to, lots of parking. What a refreshing place, very light and airy interior with wide aisles people walking around in a friendly manner (I have not witnessed anyone in a hurry, angry, nor have I witnessed or experienced road rage on this island). Great atmosphere. I went to ask about the poke bowls and was told what was out was it as they'd already gone through all the fresh fish for the day. Man in a way that was great ... I knew then it was all fresh, what was there was going to be awesome tasting and run with it. Probably not the most filling thing to order, but then it wouldn't sit (grumble) on my stomach for the long flight back. Wide selection of everything you're probably used to getting (staples) on the mainland, it just all probably costs (it does) a bit more on the island due to shipping, etc. Cheaper than a restaurant and FRESH though. Clean parking lot (I am one of those people that bring buggies from the parking lot to use while shopping), friendly place, easy location. Shopped on: 12/11/2024 at 76-971 Henry Street.

When I got there the lady at the counter was exceptionally rude telling me I needed to have the name of the puppies and their birthdays not my name. I told her it was called in under my name. She said it would not be under my name it would be under the puppies last name. I told her they are puppies they do not have last names. I told her the medicine was needed for puppies who had pneumonia and reiterated they were foster puppies. She told me it didn't matter and then went to talk to the pharmacist who at that time was speaking to the prescribing vet. She comes back and tells me that it is under my last name but the patients are the puppies. Ok. She asks if I have gotten prescription there before. I tell her not that I can remember, maybe about 11 years ago. She procedes to say she will then need my full name, birthday, address, phone number etc. I give it to her. After waiting an hour right in front of the counter while they are behind the counter giggling. I finally get up to talk to a male person at the counter. He gives me the prescription and I pay for it. It is listed with my name as my puppies with an address I haven't had for 10 years. Now I know why I do not get my prescriptions filled there.

Then they told me and the doctor had to be called to change the prescription. I used the Walmart optometrist which was fantastic (see that review too).
