    This supermarket is perfectly located in Kihei to do a quick run for a fresh poke bowl. They offer great variety of bowls at a decent price. Supermarket has everything you expect for it to have but prices are a little higher of course than sometimes Safeway and Walmart. Service is ok, not much to expect from the staff. They are just foing their job. It was missing a few items we were looking for even though it was early in the morning around 830am. Place is clean but it does look a bit worn down.

    Why do you even need to search for a poke restaurant when there is Foodland. Their pokes were the best among all the pokes I have tried this trip. They also carries various unique snacks and delicious alcohol beverages. Highly recommended!

    Love love love the poke here! Our go to during our visit here, we probably came here 3-4 times in the week that we were here. The poke here is really fresh and they have tons of selections. Our favorites: Kpop salmon (slightly spicy/sweet, and even tasted almost meaty with the marinade) shoyu ahi, and the California roll ahi. Don't skip out on the seaweed salad and the Mac salad (from the hot foods section). I got both a half pound as well as their bowls, and they PACK the bowls with poke. Definitely a great option if you want rice. Lines were never super long during lunch. No outdoor seating, but there is a park right across the street.

    This Foodland is historic for me, as it marked my 100th grocery store rotisserie chicken of the year. It just worked out that we took a family vacation right when I was set to hit the century mark. I could sit here and gush about this whole journey and how much it has meant to me, how it took me from 2k IG followers to 111k, and how it genuinely did change my life, but I've done that enough on other reviews. I'm going to let it rest. A whole tissi ran $12.29 and it ended up landing at 8.8/10, which ranks it a respectable 16th out of 100 grocery store tissis I've tried. I also got the poke from here, which was PHENOMENAL. The spicy garlic ahi went insane. I never thought I'd be using these adjectives to describe grocery store fish, but Hawaii is built different. On my 3rd trip to Foodland in 10 days, I ended up trying every musubi they had as I've never seen another grocery store that sells musubis. It got me thinking about how much I love a regional grocery store, as they give you a granular look into the local culture. I learned a lot. I learned that spam musubis are so popular in Hawaii because during WWII, fresh meat was scarce as Hawaiian shipping lines were disrupted and the US Military brought in large quantities of spam. Hawaiians began creatively incorporating it into local cuisine... interesting facts like these always send me down the craziest rabbit holes. Anyways, shoutout to Foodland. They are running a great operation in here. IG @johnny.novo Tiktok @jnov__ Substack @johnnynovo

    I visited a different Foodland everyday on my visit to Maui. At this location, I grabbed a beet poke bowl for my plane ride home and I also tried the by the pound breakfast. I tried the rice, egg, and Portuguese sausage. It was average tasting, but I like the by the pound price as my breakfast was around $4.00 and I didn't have to worry about having left overs. Good service and easy parking. Please come and create your own adventure.

    Loved Foodland in Kihei back in July 2015, and definitely over multiple visits late August 2025 a decade later. Nice, well stocked store and used by locals and visitors alike. Pleasant staff too! The Homie and I liked the deli/hot food section, cold beverages, and items available to supplement what's needed at the condo. Pro tip: join the MaiKai membership program. Purchases add up to significant savings and freebies.

    Wonderful poke - we recommend the spicy ahi. Also the store made edamame is amazing. The poke sometimes goes on sale later in the evening.

    Foodland is a great place to get fresh and delicious tasting poke! It's well stocked and clean. Everyone is really friendly. Plenty of parking!

    Such a neat grocery store and I love the variety of baked goods and hot food choices. Definitely stocked up on some treats for my time in Maui! I prefer the hot foods here compared to the ABC store. Friendly staff. I had to get some of the Ube crinkle cookies. Would highly recommend to check out. Prices wont break the bank and yes they have masubi and a cool poke bar!

    Shrimp, octopus, and scallop poke
    Kenny L.

    Honestly the best poke I've ever had hands down. I tried it twice here and the 2nd time was even better. The scallops are amongst the freshest and tastiest I've had. I also thoroughly enjoyed everything else such as the ahi and octopus. We tried it both with rice and some wonton chips and I preferred it with rice, but the chips were a nice change.

    Easter to find off s Kihei road. Private parking lot which is nice. Be sure to grab a cart outside if you need one. Sign up for their rewards program there are bargains for being a member. They have a great poke bar in the back with helpful clerks to help you make a decision. On Fridays they have $6 specials-if you're a member of their rewards program. Great deals in the deli that day also, clerks there are super helpful if you have any questions. They charge for bags so you need to bring your own if you want to save a few cents. Happy shopping

    Enjoying poke on the beach
    Jennifer M.

    If your in Maui, please try the poke from foodland!!! I went to a few other places and i kept wishing I just went back to foodland instead. During my one week trip I had to of come here Atleast 3 or 4 times. Everytime I got something different and there was nothing i didn't like. Oh and go enjoy it on the beach. Makes it 10 times better!

    Spicy mayo and Hawaiian specialty
    Samantha C.

    I came here 4 times before finally getting my poke!!! The first time, being tourists, we didn't know the poke was located in the back so I only looked in the front. The second time, the couple in front of us took the last pound of poke. The third time, it was too early and they didn't have the poke ready yet. But finally the fourth time we got it!! The spicy mayo poke is the BEST I've ever had. The Hawaiian specialty was ok since the texture was a little too much for us. It's also in bigger chunks so the mouthfeel is off. Would come back just for the spicy mayo.

On top of that, they operate a poke bar that is just as much their identity. This location is in Kihei in what looks like a desolate parking lot. The building looked outdated and quite frankly closed when we arrived. We opened the door to see a huge store full of different liquor options. Our main purpose was the poke bar to the left. They sell poke bowls with rice as well as fish by weight. We got an all ahi bowl ($16.99) with ahi spicy garlic, half pound of hamachi poke, and half pound of salmon poke ninja teriyaki and chili oil. The ahi spicy garlic had TONS of fried garlic; it tasted good at first but it was too much near the end. I had to remove some as we kept eating at the end. I was interested in the hamachi poke since that wasn't a common fish in poke but it was fresh. The salmon poke was another one we didn't see often, and I liked the flavor and it wasn't too spicy. This is a good spot if you're looking for lunch and also to grab some drinks for later on.

I also ordered a mimosa with cranberry juice. I was told to give the bartender a couple minutes to make it and then where to pick it up. Stood there for a few minutes with no bartender insight but a glass of sparkling wine on the bar. When she finally arrived she said there was no juice type listed on the receipt. The bagel and arugula salad that came with it were amazing! Hubby got scrambled eggs and their furiaki potatoes. Great seasoning, he thought they were a little heavy on the garlic. Very friendly staff and for an open-air restaurant seemed clean, even with the chickens coming and going. We also didn't like that we were expected to add a tip when ordering. Maybe a Hawaii thing, but I tip on service, so being expected to tip when placing an order automatically makes me tip lower since I don't know what to expect. But left cash after. Don't know who picked it up or if it was pooled.

Their main selling point is the fresh fish and the different ways they're prepared. You can choose between different fish options from ahi to mahi mahi to snapper. You can also choose the cooking preparation such as charbroiled, sautéed, cajun, or blackened. Then you can choose your sides. They give you a number and you find a table to sit. We got the ahi sautéed with cajun rice ($28), the mahi mahi blackened with french fries ($27), and the clam chowder ($7). I liked the sautéed flavors with the butter and garlic. I loved the flavor of the blackened char flavor, and we loved that the fries were thin. The clam chowder was standard. One of the surprising stars of our meal was their house magic sauce. It was one of the condiments table-side and we found that it was so good with everything. We drenched it in the fish and even dipped it in the fries. I thought the flavor of the blackened mahi mahi was better, but the magic sauce went better with the sautéed ahi.
