My relationship with Māla Market started via Uber Eats, and it's been a hot minute since I've…read moresupported their establishment due to ... budgeting. Today I needed some self care. Their sandwiches are excellent and the chips that that come along with the sandwiches make the perfect pair. I'm typically in town (thus the Uber Eats) and after a heavy workout I was craving something healthy-ish. So I made the trek to Hawaii Kai to finally visit in person. I got a little lost in the parking lot, but after a quick phone call they were kind enough to point me in the right direction (pro tip: nearest shop is Panda Express). It's down a little hallway near the pavilion. I would never know this because I rarely come to Hawaii Kai. Fast forward to ordering my food; they are fast. The assembly line is on point. And the eating area has a gorgeous view that's perfect for a lunch date or a girly fab sesh. Sandwiches as just as good as I remember and the cold brew kept me productive on my day off.

Here's a balanced review that gets your point across while acknowledging the positives:…read more This sandwich shop definitely seems to be one of the local favorites, so I had to give it a try. The sandwiches are good and the ingredients taste fresh, but I was surprised by the price. At around $16 per sandwich, I expected something a little more substantial. The sandwiches have a lot of toppings and presentation, but they also have quite a bit of "fluff," and the bread is sliced very thin, making the overall sandwich feel smaller than expected. The side options are limited to either a salad or potato chips. I chose the chips, and I have to admit they were really good. Overall, the food tastes good, but I don't think it matches the price point. For what you get, I'd say these sandwiches feel more like a $10 value than a $16 one. I'd come back if I was craving one, but I'd love to see either larger portions or a lower price to better reflect the value.

The loco moco also comes with that same thick bread underneath the egg, but it's still really good. Overall, I absolutely love this place. Great matcha, beautiful atmosphere, good service, and delicious food. Definitely a 5-star spot for me!

We ordered the Repetti pizza and fettuccine with diavolo sauce and meatballs. We also had the Caesar salad and focaccia bread with marinara sauce. Our server was Grace. Grace was so friendly and knowledgeable and professional. In addition to the food, Grace made the dining experience exceptional. We sat outside and even though it was a very hot day, the temperature was very comfortable under the roofed area. The Pinot Grigio was excellent! Our meal was brought out in a timely manner and Grace was an attentive server. The Caesar dressing is perfection! The diavolo sauce was delicious and just-right spicy. We loved the meatballs and the fettuccine was cooked perfectly. The pizza!!!!! Wow. Just the right amount of crisp in the crust and the toppings were a delicious combination of flavors. The focaccia with marinara could have been a meal for me. The bread was hot and crispy while also being soft and savory. I couldn't get enough of the marinara. We had a lot of leftovers and ate some for dinner and still have more for tomorrow. Repetti's will be a new place for us to dine and bring friends as often as possible. We were so impressed and could not have wanted any of the experience to be different. Fantastic in every way!

It's good that you can personalize the sandwich to how you want. It is unfortunate that you can't substitute an ingredient for something of a similar or lesser price. It is also disappointing that you must pay extra for sprouts instead of that being an ingredient in all the sandwiches since that is the name of the business.

Been me and my girlies go to for the past few years for our bi-monthly debrief, and we are not alone. Take a look around and there's always a few tables that look like the 2020 Hawai'i version of a Sex in the City girl gang talk fest. The location is genius. Who would have thought that putting a coffee shop in a hidden outdated strip mall in a tiny neighborhood valley would pop off? Yet it does. It feels current, it feels now. Surf Camp shares its name with its sister the popular Surf Camp attire and retail store which is the older sister as well to Up and Riding for kids- a surf themed clothing, accessories and shoes store in Kahala Mall. All of these spots exhibit a taste level, an eye for trends, and quality products. There's also a subtle but felt honoring of what makes local, local, underneath everything. I think that's what adds to the success. They know how to create a look, a vybe. Now when it comes to coffee I'd just like to do the shrugged emoji girl. Some of it I just can"t get into. I think I'm too old to get on the matcha bandwagon. I really just want drip coffee or espresso shots. I don't need fancy. I don't like milk. But my friends do, and I love my friends. The pastries are really good. The kids behind the counter are cute and hard working. I enjoy being here every time I come. If you want an experience with your beverage, a chill spot to sit and chat with your homies, or are headed out to Sandy's, Makapuu, Koko Head, or any of the other fun, beautiful spots this side has to offer, check out Surf Camp. I bet you'll be back.

I requested to have the smaller sized scones, so we could have 15. I received a phone call saying only 12 scones fit in the box, and if I wanted 15, I'd have to order 3 separate scones. I pre ordered two days in advance, and said that 12 was fine, I'll order more if I have to. I'm assuming the person who called, did not relay the message. I received a door dash message at 630am saying the same thing as the phone call. My delivery time was 8:10-8:20 am ... the scones were not ready for pick up until 8:20! My meeting starts at 9am, when I needed the scones... Needless to say, I hope they're tasty. However do not order on door dash from them. They are communicative with their customers though. So that's a plus.
