I just recently visited this "spot" in Moiliili. Occasionally, visited their food truck in Waikiki and the menu is similar as I recall. Da Spot offers cafeteria style meals.Their Moroccan Chicken and Coconut Lemon Herb Chicken dishes are both excellent. Portions are generous and pricing a good value. I enjoy their smoothies...they have some 30 different types to choose from. Already have a favorite; #7 Home Grown, consisting of Strawberries, Guava Sorbet, and Guava juice. Takeout and dine-in is available...lots of tables. Parking is available in the back but there is plenty of street parking on University Ave. or one of the side streets. read more

LovED this place. Da Spot has been one of my fav go to spots for a while not to mention the opportunity to support local businesses. Good food, good service, good prices, and good portions. I stopped in tonight to pickup my usual and $18 later was a little underwhelmed. I typically get the reg. Fish plate that comes with 2 pieces of fish, tonight it came with 1 piece of fish. I also opted to upgrade the salad unaware of the $5 charge. As some of the other recent reviews stated the hot food was warm at best and the salad may have been slightly warmer. Not the same quality or service and I didn't see any of the regular workers there tonight. I really hope they can get it turned around and maybe some training for the staff. read more

Da Spot - regular coconut lemon fish with Greek salad - Mediterranean Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

The food is very good. The service is a bit slow. The ambience is OK. I like the Parmesan chicken, lemon chicken, pink snapper

Kind of ambivalent. I usually like the first couple bites of food and go off it and don't finish. My friends like this place a lot. It is convenient... read more

Perfect for when you're craving healthy or healthy-ish comfort foods. Laid back place with homestyle selections to please different palates: variety of proteins, vegetarian selections, Indian, Middle Eastern, Mediterranean, Italian, Asian, etc, plus smoothies and desserts. I saw them setting up for live entertainment, so I'm sure that would be cool too! They have parking down the street, but I usually try to grab a metered stall out front. I contacted them for catering a few times, but never heard back. This was during Covid, so hopefully they've straightened that out. Highly recommend!! read more

Wow, passing by this place for a looong time now. Heck even my uncle lived down the street a few houses away literally and I never been here till now. So like other have said, parking is a little rough. It's either find street parking which is hard due to local residents behind or park across Longs fast kind. Food is cafeteria hot pan style. So pick your rice, today for instance was yellow saffron rice or brown rice. Entree had quite a bit, from coconut curry chicken, teri, Moroccan chicken, tomato basil chicken etc. I had the Mini saffron rice and Moroccan chicken. Let me tell you portions are LARGE! Mini is 2 scoops rice, small scoop entree and side salad of choice or premium add on from tofu salad etc. Rice was good not really stront typical barely hint saffron and just yellow. Moroccan chicken wasn't bad, like the little nuttiness hints and slivers of sliced almonds. Toss, spinach salad was refreshing as well. Now that I know this place does more Mediterranean style foods I'll come by again especially with those reasonable prices. read more

Three letters: W O W The food was so ono! This is the first time that I have eaten here. Don't make the same mistake I have made daily driving past this restaurant! Find a parking stall and order some amazing food! So tasty and healthy- can have all salad instead of 2 scoops rice. Love it!! read more

Da Spot - a plate of food on a table - Mediterranean Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

One of my top "GO TO" spots when I'm around town. Priced very reasonable, portion size will leave you satisfied/full, and it's very consistent each time I go. Easy parking across the street, you can take to go or dine in after you walk up and make a plate. I didn't get a smoothie this trip but highly recommend the smoothies (if they have all the ingredients) read more

Da Spot - Moroccan Chicken/Regular, San Fran rice and a regular toss salad. - Mediterranean Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Da Spot is a perfect place to go to when you're looking for a tasty, affordable and healthy meal (or when you and your wife don't have energy to cook). Most importantly, the staff and owner are genuinely good people. One evening when we were dining in, we witnessed a person who may have been houseless (and also living with mental illness), steal some of the drinks from their open fridge. When notifying the owner he said that it was okay, and that he allowed this person to take what they needed often. My personal favorite is the lamb, saffron rice and chicken. My wife likes the coconut fish and Parmesan chicken... but there hasn't been a menu item we've tried here that we haven't enjoyed. When we're feeling really spicy we like to add a baklava for dessert. It's also very pet friendly and we bring our two large dogs to eat on the outside part of the restaurant. 10 out of 10 would recommend! read more

Fast, relatively healthy food! Tasty generous portions and flavors/ingredients. Great place to come after a good hike or activity. As for their food, many options from fish to chicken. For an added price, upgrade from a side salad to one of many other sides they have. I especially love their smoothie options. For $5 you get a large smoothie, customizable to your liking. Parking: street parking or one of the few spots that are in the designated parking lot (follow the parking signs) Only issue is that the floor was so sticky, my HIC sandal sole stuck flat onto the floor and detached my sandal thong. Luckily, I was able to put it all back together. :) read more

My go to when I'm looking for Ono grindz that are quick. I always get the vegetarian Thai curry with saffron rice and it never disappoints. If they have the mango salad dressing GET IT! It's next level! Only down side it the parking situation on king street, there isn't much. But other than that, Da Spot is a solid place for Ono food! read more

Da Spot - Thai Red Vegetable Tofu Curry - Mediterranean Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

I've been here before for smoothies and I really enjoy them but I only tried the food here recently. My favorite smoothies are their Strawberry Smoothie and Da Kine Smoothie. My friend kept raving about the food and he eats here often so I figured to give them a try. He told me exactly what to order and sent me a pic just in case lol. I came here for a late lunch and got my order to go since I had lots of packing to do when I got home. When I arrived, I wasn't initially helped. Maybe they thought someone helped me already? Not too sure but I waited awhile. When someone finally did help me, I ordered a Mini. Unfortunately they ran out of Saffron Rice. I came just to try it and they were out! My choices were between White or Brown. Luckily it took me awhile to choose because someone came out with a new batch of Saffron Rice right after I said "Brown!" What luck! Next, we moved to the entree. As instructed by my friend, I ordered the Coconut Lemon Herb Chicken. Lastly, I had the choice between Watermelon Salad or Toss Salad. I got the Toss Salad with their Papaya Salad Dressing. It was the exact order my friend recommended. The food was very flavorful and the chicken wasn't dry. It was a generous portion size and for only $6! They definitely priced the menu with students in mind. Good value so 3.5 stars. read more

Da Spot - Coconut Lemon Herb Chicken w/Saffron Rice and Papaya Salad Dressing on Tossed Salad - Mediterranean Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Let's start with the positive, they have great customer service but unfortunately This spot is not one I would recommend. Food lacks flavor, very bland. The broccoli salad was too salty and the falafel wrap was dry and tasteless. I did not enjoy my meal. Also, because the store front is a garage birds were flying inside. I was glad my order had to be made in the back because all the food out front is exposed to birds and flies. read more

I found this spot on accident, looking for Açaí bowls, but saw it had more and had to try. I was not disappointed at all. I ordered to go, and didn't make it out the parking lot with it. First, parking is a struggle. They have a sign that says free parking with the address number, but in one area, it's one way in and out. Though it's a 2-way street, cars are parked all along the side, it really feels like a one-way. I parked in the middle and prayed for no ticket. Your best bet is to park across the street in the Longs Pharmacy plaza and walk across. Açaí bowl was the best I've had on the island. It was okay, but felt a bit watered down and could have been topped with more fruits. However, the actual entree menu was amazing. It was fresh, from the smell to the taste. The salad was an automatic side, but it was $2.00 more to upgrade to any other side. They were jammin in there! Personally, it didn't bother me, but some of the music playing was uncensored and could have easily offended someone else. Other than that, I will return for the entree. read more

I used to live by here so went a couple of times. Sometimes the food here is a 4 and other times it's a 5. I love the coconut chicken and they really hook you up with the portions here. The only thing is that I'm not a huge fan of foods that are exposed like their food is because it makes them dry and you don't know what's getting in there. I do love their smoothie choices though. Overall a great quick spot to eat affordable healthy food read more

Da Spot - Mediterranean Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

I always come here when I'm feeling lazy at home and don't have time to cook. The food is delicious, and the serving size is quite generous for the price; it tastes homemade and leaves me feeling healthy after finishing. The service is decent; there isn't much to say because they're quite quick on taking orders. read more

This review is solely based on two things, we wanted a cold drink and snack. So we ended up getting smoothies and an acai bowl. This used to be a small truck back in the day and it's surprising to see it a brick and mortar in the mall. Their smoothies are blended with only the best blenders in the world, Blendtec! So the moment I tasted the smooth texture I realized the familiarity and had to do a double take to realize that I was right. They do use Blendtec blenders! If you just want to escape the heat for a quick cool break, come to Da Spot! read more

COVID 19 11/2020 ***** I wish I could eat here at least twice a week. Super tasty Mediterranean style food on the healthy side. I always order coconut fish with lots of sauce on saffron rice and side salad combo $8. Bursting with yummy flavors without guilty calories. Mango fresh smoothie is refreshing tasty too. They are following Covid rules. Tables available inside and patio area now. Restrooms are closed during Covid time. Parking on street or free small parking lot on side street. Thank you for my tasty healthy meals. read more

Love the smoothies! The chocolate, peanut butter and haupia sherbet is my favorite one so far

when you're in hawaii and it is hot as h*ll, there's nothing that tastes better than a delicious fruit smoothie. i would call myself a smoothie fanatic, i am obsessed with them so trust me when i say Da Spot has got Da Best smoothies around. I had a Sweet Express and loved itttt. so damn refreshing! read more

Da Spot is a great place to come for a healthy lunch, dinner, salad, or smoothie. The prices are shocking to me, how much food you are able to get for a great price. I assume this is the case because it is not too far from the university. However, with that being said, you can easily get a sandwich or plate lunch, and a smoothie for under $10. This is pretty unheard of in Hawaii. The food is also healthy, with several veggie and salad options available, something that is also harder to find when eating out in Hawaii. I have come back a few times, and have made it a regular spot that I check out. read more

One of the BEST places ever ! A family favorite. We love the Loco Coco shakes and Acai bowls But today we tried Strawberry Haupia bowl because they didn't have any acai bowls left. OMG OMG omg what a winner !!! Our family loved it so much. We REALLY hope they add it to the menu. It will be a regular item on our list. ABSOLUTELY Love Da Spot plate lunch selections and vegetarian menu items, curries and vegetables healthy fare read more

Da spot is DA SPOT. Looking for a cheap meal that's healthy? A place that supports local business and gives great portions ? You can't go wrong with this place . Believe the hype. I can't begin to explain how fresh and delicious everything I have had from here has been. They are always consistent with flavors, recipes and dishes on their menu. They are known for their smoothies but i love their food too. Super close to the university so it can get pretty busy and parking isn't the easiest but we came around dinner time and found street parking. Can also park across the street at Longs. Let's get to the food! The saffron rice is to die for , especially since right when we got there the fresh hot batch just came out. The miso shoyu chicken was alright i didn't think it was anything special but that thai red chicken curry was so delicious paired with the rice. I like how they ask if you want sauce all over, like yesss sauce it up! The second plate we got was Saffron rice and Lemon pepper chicken/ Moroccan chicken. My other half said it was really good especially the moroccan chicken ( he ate it all before i could try any of it) lol. The salads are well prepared too, the veggies weren't soft and mushy but crunchy and crisp. don't you just hate when you get a soggy salad? bleckkk. My all time favorite though is their Mac nut pesto penne pasta . Must have! Overall service was great too, their super quick when taking orders you can feel a little rushed but i think it's just how they keep the flow going. I loved the energy and friendliness from John who served us last night. Thank you John for being a hype man and exhibiting such great customer service. read more

It was my first time coming here. I've passed this place a lot and always wanted to stop and try it. I finally got to try it because bf suggested it! I will have to say that the hot food was really good! I got bf a plate with the vegetable curry with the yellow rice and tossed salad with the papaya dressing. I got the yellow rice with one of the chicken and quinoa salad. The quinoa salad was an additional charge but it was really good! I will definitely be getting that again! I also ordered the berry smoothie and the espresso smoothie as well. Lol initially I was getting the espresso one for myself and the berry for the bf but he liked the espresso one more! XD so of course he drank most of that! Lol I wanted caffeine that morning since bf had an Americano with 5 shots from Starbucks that morning, thinking that would be enough caffeine for him! Haha guess not! Lol But if you haven't tried this place, you should definitely give it a try! It's definitely better than getting fast food! Healthy and hearty food!! read more

My wife and I walked in last night, a Sunday about 730 pm, so was not expecting too much. We both ordered regular plates. My wife got the lemon coconut fish, and I got the Thai chicken curry...and 2 scoops rice with wonderful choices of salads...and great mango dressing as a choice..... We were amazed at how much food we got. We ate at a table out front and had a reallly delicious dinner. I went back to tell the server that both of our meals were really excellent, and we will be back. Strongly recommend. read more

The value of the food here, potentially unparalleled, they really pack your plate to the brim. When I saw them loading it up my eyes went wide, well as wide as my little asian eyes can go T^T I had the spicy chicken and a curry, which are loaded with veges and feels really healthy for restaurant food. I believe the 2 item plate is only like $12-13? Comes with fragrant saffron rice and a green salad, sweet creamy dressing. U can park at Times across the street. read more

Always great place to stop by and get food. No long waits, always fresh, lots of options, and pretty healthy. Not to mention, the prices aren't too bad for how much food you get! I'm always stuffed! Hope this place sticks around, we need more reasonably-priced places to eat on this island! read more

The smell of amazing food drew me in on my way home last night. Stopped in & grabbed a mango smoothie real quick - was so bomb & hit da spot- THANK YOU!! read more

Loved every bite, especially any dish they serve with the word "Moroccan" in the name. Service is always very friendly, fast, professional, and helpful. We always did takeouts because it's our lunch time, and we work nearby on King Street. read more

Been loving Mediterranean style food lately and this is one of my convenient go to places. I think it's pretty consistent with the one at Alamoana lanai food court. You can get the mini plate that is $6 and the portions are great! A mini plate looks like a regular at some other places! It comes with plain lettuce salad but you can upgrade the mini for $2 more to get your choice of one of their other side salads like pasta salad, fruit or potato salad, they have a variety of different ones daily. The regular plate I think is $10. I like the saffron rice and so far I've tried their tomato bitter chicken and the coconut lemon herb chicken entrees. Both were good but prefer the butter chicken. They also have many flavors of smoothies that start at $3! Tasty food and very reasonable prices. Right now they have open seating and takeout. Recommend! read more

I normally don't leave these types of reviews but felt it necessary since I was very uncomfortable. Whoever they hire to do their food deliveries (unless it was one of the workers?) was extremely unprofessional. A van pulled up and a man started pounding on the glass from inside the van staring at me. I felt very uncomfortable and threatened being that I happened to be alone and the only customer seated. Then, out of the van come 2 workers ( I was unaware this was a work van ) that let him out. He then proceeds to walk by me saying, "thanks for the help." I understand he was probably joking. Maybe if I knew him or was not alone when the van pulled up. One star because food was satisfying. read more

My first time eating at this location was 2 days ago and it was so good I had to come here again. The selection of dishes is wonderful and the taste is amazing.

I enjoy trying new foods and the Moroccan and Egyptian dishes are so delicious. I also love the fresh greek and quinoa salads..yum read more

Da Spot - Saffron rice, coconut lemon chicken, Egyptian chicken curry and quinoa salad - Mediterranean Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

We had our wedding catered by Da Spot! Our wedding menu included lemon herb coconut chicken, lemongrass beef, tomato garlic red snapper, grilled rosemary herb vegetables, and half-half of jasmine rice and saffron rice. The food was such a hit among our local and visiting family and friends attending our wedding. Just as good is the reasonable pricing for catering! For anyone who cares, Da Spot also promotes sustainability through using only paper utensils and plates. Besides our wedding, I've eaten here on two other occasions. All the entrees and salads tasted delicious. I have yet to try their smoothies, but I'd love to! It's great to know Da Spot is also located inside the Lanai food court at Ala Moana Center, though I've never compared the two. I would love to have a first wedding anniversary lunch here with my husband to reminisce our special day. :) read more

Ate here for the first time with my wifey. I ordered the Moroccan roasted chicken, chicken curry, green salad, and Saffron rice. My ordered the coconut lemon herb chicken with green salad and Saffron rice. We also ordered a large drink and some kind of pie all for $22. The food was dirt cheap and pretty delicious. The pie was very sweet. The staff here are all friendly and helpful. There are a lot of tables and chairs to eat at. Although the parking was pretty horrible. They have a parking area on the side of the building, but it wasn't easy to find. I actually ended up parking off on the sidewalk at the corner for another establishment lol. read more

Of course the food is amazing, every dish is so good it's hard to decide what to choose. I'm leaving this review because Camille deserves a shoutout for the excellent service he gave. If I could give him more than 5 stars I would. He was extremely friendly, was exceptional with fulfilling my order and when I had a question about one of the sides, he knew the ingredients, how it was made and even gave me info on one of his favorites as well. Camille's overall demeanor was professional, welcoming and knowledgeable. I was so impressed with his work ethic, I will definitely be back sooner because of him. Thank you again! read more
