There are 2 main things I absolutely love about this location. First, they have great poke, as we all know. Second, they sell plants in the very front section of the store! They have a variety of different options, and prices are reasonable! I got a spotted begonia there, which is one of my favorite plants. Technically this is a third reason, but they also support a number of other local businesses too! Staff is friendly. Lots of parking. Good prices. Just can't go wrong! read more

This particular location of Foodland is considered to have the best poke bar of all other Foodland locations. It is fresh with several different types, including a premium poke using fresh fish instead of poke made with fresh frozen fish. On a good day, you can get fresh poi. They also have boiled peanuts, a fantastic deli bar with fried chicken. Store is exceptionally clean. Service is attentive except for our cashier who seemed unhappy about his job. No acknowledgments at my hello, no acknowledgement of "have a nice day," just cold stone silence. This is why I gave it a four out of five stars. read more

Great place to shop especially if you're looking for friendly staff - quick checkout - fast food lunch or dinner and good poke & poke bowls ! Today got poke chili garlic ahi !

We drop by this Foodland whenever we hike at Pillbox or goto Lanikai beach. This Foodland has everything you need and we especially enjoyed the poke. It was fresh and delicious. The person working the poke counter was fast and patient with us tourists. The store was large and clean. Also, try the butter mochi. You won't regret it. Make sure you sign up for their Maika'i membership before you head to Hawaii. It gives you discounts on their items by entering your phone number at the cashier. read more

There's no doubt that Foodland is more expensive than Costco, but it's convenient and it's got yummy food so I give it 5 stars. You can easily grab a box of squid for fishing bait, grab a variety of poke options (with free samples), and even get prepared catered Hawaiian foods if you're hosting a big event. Yes, it's a grocery store, but it's got local flair, like when they had those fun poke and musubi themed beach towels. As I mentioned before though, it's more expensive than Costco though. I made the mistake recently of seeing there was a "big sale" on oranges so I grabbed 3 as an impulse buy. It was painful to see that those on sale oranges were $7, whereas I could've gotten more oranges for the same price as Costco. But like I said, it's convenient. If you live in Kailua, it's worth not having to drive all the way to town for food. read more

UBE CINNAMON ROLLS!! They are the bomb! Way better than Cinnabons. These are baked just right, just the right amount soft fluffy inside--not too gooey like Cinnabons. First tried when someone brought to a dinner we were giving. Then bought some at the Kailua Foodland--just as yummy. Highly recommend. read more

Foodland has one of the freshest, quickest, tastiest poke on the island. Poke here tops any poke I've had on the mainland, and is so customizable! You cannot go wrong with any of the poke here, but I would completely recommend any of the spicy options. They provide a perfect kick with immense flavor, and is a great snack to enjoy at the beach or right after the beach! This is a must have if you're visiting the islands. read more

Hubs received an instacart order as a get well gif including 2 containers of strawberries. I had the kiddies with me that day so before we picked up our orders for sushi and cold noodles from 2 shops in this shopping center we started here first. All we needed was brown sugar. Bud can read now so he found the section with sugars. He showed me the dark brown sugar box. I said, "Let's get the light one." So fast he found the correct one. In the afternoon after our one hour quiet time( no tv; no iPad games, only nap or read a book) we had chilled fresh strawberries with light brown sugar and whipped cream. Sweetie thought it was the cat's meow cuz the smile on her face as she took her first bite- precious! read more

We ordered a large fresh fish poke bowl. We considered the previously frozen one but we figured since we were in Hawaii, we gotta go for the fresh. The fresh poke bowl with 2 choices of fresh came out to be $21.99. We choose the fresh secret spicy ahi poke and the fresh shoyu ahi. I'd rate this a solid 8/10 for poke as a whole and a 10/10 for supermarket poke. The fish was not as buttery as ones you can get at a restaurant / small poke shop but you could tell from biting into it that the fish was fresh. It was probably because of how they mass produce it that it feels different than getting in from a poke shop. It was not chewy or had any discoloration or slimy features. This Foodlands location had SO MANY options for fresh and previously frozen poke. The person working behind the counter was friendly, funny and definitely kept the line moving, which was greatly appreciated. We ended up getting a previously frozen poke bowl a few days later. It came out to be $10.99 for 2 choices of fish. We got the same two types of poke (secret spicy and shoyu) but with the previously frozen ahi instead. We rated this a 7/10. The texture was a lot chewer that the fresh fish. The flavor profiles were about the same. The color of the fish looked different compared to the fresh fish. This was a lot more pink than the fresh frozen one. Overall, a solid convenient choice for poke in Oahu especially due to the variety and ease of multiple locations alone! You can't go wrong with either choices! read more

Foodland has a great selection of delicious poke for a reasonable price. The poke is what brings me in. The customer service behind the counter is terrible though! The man who works the counter is ALWAYS rude and discourteous. I try to kill him with kindness. Maybe one day he'll crack a smile, or maybe not. read more

I've heard so much about Foodland, so it was the first stop that I hit once I landed in Hawai'i (I'm from the Mainland). While it's your typically grocery store (where you can also get beach supplies, if needed!), I came for the poke. They have a HUGE selection of different kinds of poke and ready-to-eat seafood, including but not limited to: crab, clams, and oysters. I got the spicy ahi poke and a salmon poke, and they were delicious, fresh, and filling. The sauces/marinade were flavorful and unique. The staff working here were also so sweet and kept offering free samples of haupia, which was delicious. Definitely a great stop. read more

We heard foodland poke is TOP! So we had to pick some up to snack on by the beach. When we were in line, one of the locals said the "California" was their go-to, so I had to give that one a try. It was BOMB!!! Probably one of my favorites! The octopus one is also pretty good, give that one a shot if you like octopus :) We also got a side of rice and some chips- perfect combo!!! read more

This rating is more so for the worker rather than the store itself. Went to get poke around noon on Sunday nov 30th and the worker at the poke was extremely rude. Originally I asked for one bowl and someone in the group I was with changed their mind and wanted one as well. He ended up making a huge deal about me originally saying 1 and how its easier and faster if I would had just said 2 and now I "changed my mind". Keep in mind there was only one other person behind us and he was acting as if there was a lunch rush. I usually don't care for writing yelp reviews but this dude put a bad taste in everyone's mouth. Other than that the food was great. read more

Staff was rude at the poke area, staff was great at the register area. Overall poke was better at another food land.

All things local! Best poke on Oahu! Beautiful flowers, and house plants and lei! Coffee bean is reason enough!

Just tried to eat their Korean Drumstick special. Very generous serving of 6 drumsticks for $6. However, they were almost inedible. Over cooked and completely dried out with little to no flavor. Would recommend if starving - but only then. read more

The older Hawaiian person at the poke counter with the neck tattoos might be the most miserable person I have ever come across. He holds up the line to take joy in roasting tourists for pronouncing "poke" wrong. (02/20/25 around 5:30 pm) He's incredibly rude about everything. He yells at every tourist and tries to make them feel stupid. He caused a really long line because he had to make his statements about everything they asked for. He clearly doesn't like tourists, which is fine. Find a job that doesn't include them. Made the whole line uncomfortable, and it gets even worse when he doesn't know the codes for a lot of the products. I'm really hoping he's a new hire because he ruined the poke experience for at least 25 people standing in line while he attacked customers. I think he should be drug tested read more

Always great poke here at any Food land location. Variety is great & the freshness is spot on! The make the poke with care! Never was not satisfied, with any purchase made. Service is always good & the presentation of the poke looks always appetizing! The whole fish department is the neighborhood place to go & the sanitation & cleanliness is always noticeable.You can count on Foodland for excellent poke & good variety! read more

This is always our first stop when we come back to Kailua. I can't eat poke on the mainland because I've been spoiled by poke at Foodland. First bowl of our trip: Ahi Limu Poke Bowl. Always great service, fresh fish! Great prices! I love Foodland! Thank you! read more

doing an around the island trip and stopped by for poke before heading back west. uncle franklin & all the workers helping us out were so funny and a highlight in my family's day. needed 7 poke bowls & service was very quick with a side of jokes. there was already a line, but aside from our family the other worker was able to get thru it pretty quickly. thanks to those uncles for the great service! edit: just seen some posts about the uncle i was talking about. wouldn't say he was rude to customers, in fact just a way for him to make small talk. seen him doing the same with other customers (tourist & local) before ours but they were laughing as well. read more

High quality, affordable poke! Each time I visit Foodland, I walk straight to the poke counter. There's hardly ever a line, so it's super convenient! The salmon and ahi are fresh and tender, and the sauces are deeply flavorful. Combined, the resulting poke is *chef's kiss.* There's ample flavors and proteins to choose from. Workers are laid back and friendly. The store overall is clean and organized. We always walk out of Foodland with happy tummies! read more

Best poke bowls! Head into the grocery store and on the right hand side you'll see the deli section where they sell poke bowls!

I've tried Foodland before and it's good so came here again. I bought their poke bowl and musubi. They have so many flavors to choose for poke bowls. It's so fresh and yummy. It's definitely worth it. And their musubi was so huge and I've never seen this huge musubi. I enjoyed the taste of every single bite. It's a great place to grab poke bowls and musubi with family and friends. read more

Foodland will fulfill your basic grocery needs, but it's the hot food section and poke variety that win me over! It's so convenient to pick up good food for a quick meal or picnic on the beach. Highlights were poke, salt and vinegar wings, spam musubi, and gummy candies (3D pineapples, sour lychee, li hing covered ones). The poke obviously won't be the best that you'll ever find on the island, but it was pretty good for supermarket poke. I was definitely tempted by the ube cake slices, mochi options, and macadamia nut ice cream though, and apparently, you can find Ted's Bakery haupia pies here sometimes. They also sell adorable little tote bags with illustrations of spam musubi and pineapples. There's just no way you can visit Hawaii without going to Foodland! read more

This grocery store is amazing when it comes to fresh poke. Like your usual market, they have everything offered. But the main things that is always a line is the seafood counter, which basically is poke. And poke they have, so many choices to choose from. As well as priced very well compared to other places. They also have the hot food section as well, and sushi counter. But mainly always makes a stop for poke. read more

I loveeeeee Food Land!!! I look at this as the Hawaii version of Whole Foods. This location is very clean and organized. The staff are very nice and helpful. Out of all sections in the store, my favorite section is the hot meals and POKE SECTION! OH YEAHHH! I have never been to a local grocery store that had good quality hot meals to buy. You definitely need to get some containers of Poke, they have so many combinations. I love getting the Shoyu Tuna Poke with Avocado, ugh i wish I could have some right now. Kailua Beach is right near by, so my family and I always stop by to grab few stuff to make a picnic at the beach :))) Parking is good here. read more

My family has been coming to Foodland ever since I was a young girl. We often opt to go to Foodland over Whole Foods or Safeway for specific types of produce. They always have a worker at the door who greets you with a smile and they supply alcohol wipes so you can wipe your cart handle down upon entry. The fruits and vegetables at Foodland are fresh and affordable, especially if you have the Maika'i card. However, I've recently started to price some of the other items there such as chicken thighs and milk (specifically Lactaid - lactose free milk). I'm not going to lie... you are definitely better off getting some items a different store. The chicken thighs were pretty expensive (more than $10 for a pack of 4 or less), and the Lactaid price was outrageously high. A large (2.8L/96oz) of Lactaid was $10.29... You can get the same one for around $5 at Target. There is a Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf connected to this location that serves various caffeinated drinks. In addition, there is a wine shop (R. Field Wine Co) that offers a wide variety of fancy wines, crackers, and cheeses. Overall, Foodland is a local favorite. They have a great produce section and some really tasty poke. However, the meats and dairy items are rather expensive compared to some other grocery stores in Kailua, so be cautious about what you're putting in your cart! read more

Foodland is our favorite local grocery chain. On a recent holoholo to Kailua, we needed to grab some items for both our day and to take home. This location is in the shopping center area at the center of town near Big City Diner. There are lots of dining options and other shopping around, which means the older parking lot is sometimes too full. The store itself is kept to the high quality of the other locations - well organized, selection of national and local brands, great produce, and friendly customer service. We love the Mai'kai Card rewards for Hawaiian Miles. The store was somewhat busy, but the checkout lines didn't take long. If you're a visitor or local, this is a great option for groceries at good prices. read more

Foodland is always a go to spot for Poke! They have an assortment of flavors but my go to spicy ahi. You can request for a poke bowl which comes with rice or you can ask for a specific weight of poke. Usually 1/2 a pound is just enough for me! The poke tastes so fresh and buttery, I always crave it read more
