Parking in this area of Kailua is difficult, especially with a 4-month-old baby and all the things…read morethat come with trying to have a beach day for the first time in months. We stopped here because the sign clearly stated parking was for paying customers only. I went inside, bought snacks and drinks, and paid while my wife walked across the street to Kalapawai Deli to grab sandwiches since their lot was completely full. Despite the fact that I had just made a purchase and the parking lot was still mostly empty, the owner chased me down as I walked across the street and abruptly told me I could not keep my car there. I returned to my vehicle and decided to simply wait for my wife instead of abandoning her and our baby while I circled Kailua looking for parking. Roughly two minutes later, the owner came knocking on my window demanding to know what I was doing. I explained, calmly and logically, that I was waiting for my wife and utilizing the customer parking that was advertised on the sign after making a purchase. Rather than respond reasonably, he became increasingly emotional, irrational, and confrontational over an almost empty parking lot. The interaction honestly felt less like speaking to a business owner and more like dealing with a child throwing a tantrum. By the end of it he seemed genuinely on the verge of tears over someone calmly sitting in a parking spot they had every reason to believe they were allowed to use. At that point I decided it was better to leave before my wife and infant walked back into an escalating confrontation with someone behaving so unreasonably. If the business wants to impose hidden rules or arbitrary time limits on parking, they should clearly post them instead of emotionally harassing paying customers in an almost empty lot.

They have QR CODED to SCAN posted in the buildings. I've NEVER noticed them before... Then again, I've only came during the evening most times. And don't stay LONGER than 2 hours. But if you ever need a drink for the food shops you're eating at... KNOW that there is a mom & pop shop in the center. It's a bit messy & cluttered tho. So, it kind of makes you wonder if they're renovating inside. Anywho, that's mostly the reason why I gave a 2 STAR because of the appearance. Otherwise, I'm glad they had drinks. And I think there's what looks like an adult "SAMPLE TASTE" station. BUT IM NOT TOO SURE! I didn't ask... he looked a bit grouchy. I didn't want to irritate him more. Anywho, you should check it out if you need simple snacks or drinks! Okie dokes! Have a good one!

He genuinely cares about ensuring that you purchase what is right for you. They have a huge selection of wines and spirits (I even found a wine that shared my last name!), as well as refrigerated drinks. They often have reduced price bottles, and a point-redeeming program to earn certain free products. You may even get a chance to get a taste test of certain items. Where else can you do that? I really enjoy this place and try to support local.

When you walk in, it feels more like a liquor store at first, with alcohol and wine bottles lining the space. The poke counter is tucked all the way in the back, and when we visited, there were only about 2-3 flavors available. We ended up trying the Ahi Tamura Sauce and the Spicy Ahi. The flavor and seasoning were really good, though it leaned more on the watery side. The fish itself was decent--not the freshest we have had, but still enjoyable overall. The rice was well done and complemented the poke nicely. Later on, we decided to take some poke to go and asked for the poke and rice to be separated. However, the price ended up being higher than the bowl when we checked out, which was a bit of a turnoff. Overall, it was a solid poke experience. Nothing mind-blowing, but satisfying, and we both left happy with our meal (and definitely confirm the prices if you go)!

Ahi Sunrise is more of a loaded Spicy Ahi, and you can really feel the heat from the sriracha mayo. As for the Ahi Tamura's Sauce, I liked how flavorful and tangy it was. They don't do samples of the poke but you can ask the staff all about the different types of poke that they have. The cuts of the ahi were HUGE, which was a plus for me. Really satisfied that I had this for my lunch, I told my coworkers about it so they ordered too and were satisfied as well.
