    This stir was nice and spacious! Lots of fresh poke selection the prices were reasonable for some items and overly priced for others! They also have huge bakery selection and lots of Hawaiian foods and desserts. The staff was knowledgeable but not many available besides the front of the store! I don't like Poke but it would be a Poke lovers dream! Overall worth visiting this location was just okay nothing spectacular l:

    I know this is a grocery store but the poke here is amazing!!! The worker was so kind, she let me sample everything I was interested in and explained which ones were fresh / frozen. Both still tasted wonderful but definitely worth getting the fresh poke!!! Utensils available at the front, don't forget to grab a drink while you check out.

    Just like everyone has said - best poke! The widest selection of poke you can possibly imagine! Don't forget your shrimp chips :) I could eat this everyday and the perfect lunch to pickup on your way to the beach!

    10/10. The line is long but the service is super quick. Hubby, my daughter and I got the Poké bowls and OMG. Amazing. Tasty and fresh. Definitely will be back before vaca is over and I highly recommend!!

    the line is relatively long and it's pretty packed. If you are in waikiki you need to get it. I got the looks by the pound and LOVED it. It was worth the wait. The fish is so fresh and seasoned to perfection! And you can get samples of you are unsure of which fish to get, but the lines are fast, so try to eye the menu and pick what you want fast.

    The poke here is good for the price! You get a ticket in the back and wait for your number. I got spicy salmon, fresh salmon, and one of the ahi poke. The worker was friendly and gave me input on what to get. This grocery store was a little busy. We got several snacks. I was sad I could not find the pineapple gummies here. Was hoping to buy them here rather than an ABC store.

    Super clean store. I love how organized it is. Most supermarkets feel chaotic but this store was actually peaceful and pleasant. They have a great selection of fresh seafood. Everything is organized. I really enjoyed shopping. Staff was friendly and helpful!

    Stopped by Foodland and picked up a half-pound of limu ahi poke, and it absolutely hit the spot. The ticketed counter went by fast, so it's always a nice spot to stop by especially when in a rush. The poke tasted incredibly fresh, with nice big chunks of ahi and just the right amount of saltiness from the limu. Simple, clean flavors done right, exactly what you want from good poke. Would definitely get this flavor again and honestly a must have at the beach!

    The poke alone makes this a 5 star establishment. I love all the fresh items available.

    The poke here is soo fresh and there's so many options! It's quite packed but ordering is quick - you get an order number. You can try a few prior to picking but try to plan ahead so you have an idea of what you want when they call your number. I really loved the spicy ahi tuna - it was so flavorful and delicious!! The wasabi tuna was also yummy. It wasn't fishy at all. It's located in a grocery mart so there's a lot of drink options too.

    Nice grocery store, when I arrive it was not too packed. The main thing I went for was for the poke and wow it was so smooth and packed with flavor! They have multiple flavors, and when paying our cashier asked me to put my number in and I got the store discounts so that was nice.

    Foodland poke is hands down the best poke for the price. I'd even argue that it could be the best pork regardless of price. They have over 10 different flavors to choose from. My personal favorite is the spicy mayo ahi because of how creamy it is. The fish melts when you eat it. Every other poke spot in Hawaii will typically range anywhere from 20-40 dollars per pound, so coming here will be 10-15 dollars a pound, which is much more affordable.

    This Foodland is very much a cross between Safeway and Sprouts/Whole Foods if you're from California based on the products and layout. They have a great deal on the best coconut water I've ever had (Foodland brand coconut water with pulp, better than fresh imo) for $1.50 each if you buy two. My salmon shoyu poke was $12, a little too salty and there wasn't enough rice. My brother got half and half salmon and ahi, was happy that he got very large scoops, and then had to double-take at the $20 price. The workers didn't say anything beforehand, but according to him they gave him too much fish so there's nothing to complain about. Onto the negatives, the breadfruit they had was very moldy, and there was once a dog right at the poke counter sniffing all the ready made containers.

    At what time does the market start selling poke?

    0900

    When do they stop serving poke at foodland?

    Sundays - Thursdays until 8pm, Fridays and Saturdays until 9pm! This is specifically for Market City location, other locations may differ I believe.

I decided to do the long walk from Waikiki down to the store, and I was so rewarded for the effort. Walking up and the row of epic restaurant stalls had me grinning from ear to ear. There were so many delicious options OUTSIDE the store that I almost never made it in. From handrolls featuring the freshest seafood from Hokkaido to wagyu kushiyaki and more, my mouth was watering seeing it all beautifully displayed in the windows, and I'm surprised no one said anything about my gawking. Don Q is such a fun store because they have anything and everything you can think of across nearly every category. If I said they're like the Japanese Walmart, it wouldn't hit quite right because the quality and breadth of the selections here are far better. My favorite part of visiting Don Q has to be the incredible array of Asian specialty ingredients and snacks they sell and the reasonable prices. I picked up some gifts here including some exceptional styles of furikake and togarashi, but saw way too many other things I wanted. They also have amazing prepared foods here, specifically Japanese items. There's an entire sushi counter featuring all cuts of bluefin and more, freshly made onigiri, great selection of bentos and and poké too! You really owe it to yourself to visit!

We picked up a half-pound of Hawaiian-style spicy poke, which was super fresh with a nice kick of heat, and it paired perfectly with the furikake wonton chips we already had. Honestly such a great snack combo. We also grabbed a sushi tempura roll and were surprised by how good it was since we saved it for the next day for an early morning snorkel sesh: it was fresh, crispy, and filled with big chunks of shrimp, easily better than what some sit-down restaurants serve. The crispy Japanese sweet potato drizzled with a bit of honey was incredibly comforting and homey, and a nice balance of sweet and savory. We also tried the chicken katsu, which had a light, crisp breading and came with fluffy white rice topped with furikake. The side potato salad was refreshing with nice, chunky pieces of potato and not overly heavy. Perfect spot to grab quality food quickly before heading out to do other day-long activities. Everything was fresh, well-prepared, and way above typical "market food." Would absolutely stop by again on future trips.

The store itself is pretty small but very nice and as soon as you walk in, you are greeted by the amazing staff. They have a really nice selection of ready-to-eat meals, which I would recommend, and they also have a huge selection of wine and beer. They also have a nice selection of souvenirs and handmade items, and they carry many local products and brands not seen at other stores.

She told me she couldn't do the transaction and went off to lunch. I tried getting someone else to help me but he stated he was an operator not a manager. So her co-worker explained to me that it wasn't an issue with my identification. At first, I thought it might have been because the address on my passport wasn't current, so I provided another form of identification along with a piece of mail showing my name and mailing address. Unfortunately, that didn't make a difference. The associate explained that it may have been because it was my first time cashing a check of that amount at Walmart and suggested that I go directly to my bank instead. While I appreciated the associate's efforts in explaining it to me, the experience was still extremely disappointing. I had planned to use the money to buy groceries, but since I couldn't access my funds, I had to return everything I had picked out and leave empty-handed. It was a frustrating and discouraging end to an already long workday. I understand that policies and verification systems are in place for security, but I wish there had been a clearer explanation or an alternative solution to make it right with me. I was so disappointed, I just deposited the check through my own Chase mobile banking. A bank I haven't used in over a year and a half since I moved to Hawai'i. To make matters worse, the employees started discussing my situation in the corner in Tagalog as if I wasn't right there. I wish people didn't do that. Speak in another language thinking other people don't understand you. I speak Visaya, English, and Tagalog by the way. I was born in the Philippines and understand the language... It was just a very discouraging encounter. I walked out of Walmart trying not to sob because after two weeks of waiting for a paycheck, and not being able to go to the bank with my work hours, it's been incredibly difficult to have money in my pocket. I was really counting on Walmart to take care of me today. So, reluctantly, I took a picture of my check instead and deposited it through my mobile phone and now I have to wait days for it to go through. What a rough day.

And even after we moved, we would still drive out just to come here for the seafood. That's how special it was to us. The reason why he chose Tamashiro over other grocery stores was simple--it was quality and because of my Nanay (grandma). His mom purchased from here and made so many delicious dishes. He knew what to look for, and he trusted this place. For him, it wasn't just about buying food... it was about getting the best for his family. My dad isn't the type to say "I love you." He shows it. One of the biggest ways he showed love was through his cooking. Even after a long day on his feet cooking for others, he would come home and cook for us. That was his way of taking care of us. I loved coming here with him. It was a five-senses overload--the smell of fresh seafood, the sound of people talking story, the colors of fish on display. Back then when you were allowed to sample a grape or poke to make sure it was good before buying. But more than that, it was time with him. I still remember the excitement I felt when I saw the pink building with the huge crab. I thought back then was to look at everything but now I understand that it meant something more..... something special--time with my dad. It's with a sad heart that Tamishiro Market is now closed.
