Good food and great service!! Especially first thing in the morning when our bodies are not quite up yet. Today picked up the ready made brkfst bentos and they're curry plate. Food is ono. read more

Found a new place for breakfast. Just had fried rice, eggs and porcheguese sausage. Breakfast was a little pricey for 2 people $24 but luckily it was good! I think offering a $10 breakfast for laborers in the area, the place might be packed. I gave 4 stars only cuz of the flies in the place. read more

I always love the food at Masa's the staff is quick to take order a they are always friendly They also do orders for parties and funerals . They have been doing graduation parties for years also the shoyu pork always great and the famous undagi. read more

We catered for a birthday party - the food was delicious! Not only delicious, it also was still warm when we picked it up and there was so much food we had left overs. The customer service is outstanding too. Friendly and helpful. Exceeded everyone's expectations. Definitely will be a repeat customer. read more

This cafeteria styled establishment provided a gracious mound of shoyu fried ahi with two large scoops of rice (brown rice available!) mac or tossed salad and an optional butter sandwich for about $9. The ahi was firm, cooked a little too well aka firm for my liking, but flavored well! Slightly sweet, even coating of crumbs and savory. The rice and salad was standard. The butter bread was an interesting offering in my experience. The ladies were also nice enough to give me a small sample of one of their specials of the day, a stew of sorts. Made me a happy customer. Arrive early though! Parking seems limited. My co-workers anticipated the parking so we came for an early lunch. The interior is a spacious room with lots of tables and chairs. Theres a tv at the end of the food line for your viewing pleasure. read more

I forgot to take a picture of the food before?! Now it's gone but maybe that's a better testimony? I have to state I think Masa's Garlic Shoyu Fried Chicken is better than new Mistu-Ken!! read more

Masa's is like a fixture in Mapunapuna. They are always busy on weekday lunches. Parking is usually a pain because everyone takes a lunch break at about the same time, and Masa's closes at 1:30. I've eaten here maybe four or five times. Every time I come, the food looks sooooo good, I can't wait to dig in. But it never fails, I'm always disappointed. My last meal was a hamburger steak with onions. It looked sooooo good. But the burger was probably sitting in the pan for a long time because it was super hard and barely edible. I didn't even finish it! And I ALWAYS finish my hamburger steak. One time I had the fried chicken because it looked so ono. It ended up being oily and yucky. The thing I enjoy the most about every meal is the plain buttered sandwich bread that comes with the meal. That's sad. read more

Large portions for a good price. You can choose how many items you want in your mixed plate. The menu is always different, just come inside and take a look at the entrees in the window and point! The dishes taste like food that your mom makes. There is a homemade essence to the food here that is addicting. Meatloaf, pork spareribs, baked spaghetti, you name it. Once I tried to be healthy and come and eat a sandwich instead of a full-on plate. Their bread is amazingly soft btw. A sandwich at Masa's is not your usual Subway type of sandwich with cold cut meats and lettuce. You basically choose one of the meat entrees and they put in in bread with mayo. I ended up with a meatloaf sandwich for my "healthy" lunch, haha. And when offered a side of brown gravy to go with my sandwich, I said YES PLEASE :D Great lunch spot right in the middle of the warehouses. It is packed during lunch time. Parking is to the left in the elevated parking lot or on the street. I usually park in the lot because street parking can be scarce. Be patient and search around and reward yourself with some big portions! read more

Just came here today; my supervisor took me here for lunch because it's my last day of work at the VA Medical Center! Parking is a bit difficult around lunchtime. We got a stall after circling around once and stalking someone about to leave. The place really had a cafeteria-like feel, with all the foods sitting out already waiting to be scooped onto plate lunches. We got in line to order the Friday special - Hawaiian plate lunch with laulau, lomi salmon, 2 scoops of rice or poi, and some kind of stew (beef stew, tripe stew, or clear noodles with chicken). About $8.95 for the rice plate? The fish in the laulau was a bit salty for my tastes, and yes I know it's supposed to be. I liked it otherwise. The lomi salmon was pretty good, and I chose the tripe stew, which was pretty thick and a bit spicy (Tabasco sauce, I think). I was pretty stuffed by the end of my plate. Pretty good for Hawaiian food, not hugely spectacular or impressive...but good value and great specials. read more

Love their meat loaf on Wednesday's. I'm always their!!! With some grilled cheese sandwiches for the drive to work. They also have good Oxtail soups on Thursday. For Someone people it might be a little fatty but ohhh so good on a cold rainy day, with that crushed ginger a shoyu. What a staple. read more

This place comes to my mind quickly if I'm looking for a place to eat in this area (Mapunapuna and Saltlake). Service counter is always fast. Great local food! Things that I like to eat here: Corn beef & cabbage, roast pork, chicken/turkey ala king, shoyu pork, roast beef.......aww.. man...they have a lot! They have just about the same daily specials each week and I do recommend that you come before 12 noon because some of the daily specials run out by then. You can order take out at the outside counter or come in grab a tray, order your stuff, and go eat at any of the open tables. Make sure you come hungry because they give a good hefty portion...even if you order a mini! read more

What can I say about this hole in the wall. ONO ONO ONO food (and TONS of it), at the price of about 10 bucks. Musubi's the size of bricks and local atmosphere. Cafeteria style with auntie cleaning up da lunch tables. Be sure to tip her. Parking can be a challenge during peak hours so go early and don't forget to pick up your white soft bread with real butter inside!! read more

Hawaiian Plate lunch...Laulau, beef stew, lomi salmon and rice is one of the weekly Friday specials. Parking is limited so our office had to tag team one person circles the block while the other jumps out to get the phone order. Which I would recommend to do is call in your order, so you don't have to stand in line. OH, and don't forget Thursday is Oxtail Soup Day! read more

Five stars! I wanted to see what happens if I add five stars when their is only one other review with one star. The app won't let me post a super short review so yeah just trying to fill up some space with rambling nonsense. Cool beans yo! read more

Food is good and price is right but this is the only business that doesn't want me to buy things. Went in one morning and wanted 2 dozen andagi and the lady said I could only buy 1 dozen because people that come later may want to buy. WTH?? Funny, a month and a half ago when I went in there at lunch time and bought out their supply, they didn't give me hassles. Make up your mind; you want me to buy stuff or not? Told if you want more than 1 dozen, gotta call in your order the day before. read more

Ono food with generous portions. Prices are very reasonable! Sweet sour spareribs is da bomb!

Local joint in Mapunapuna. The ladies who work here are very nice. I like the pancakes. Standard local fare.

The daily specials are amazing! My favs are roast turkey on Wednesdays and the pastrami on Thursdays! Pastrami on a plate lunch? Amazing! read more

Nice place to eat. Enjoyed breakfast while watching cable news. The have a breakfast + coffee meals. The Denver omelet was good. Plenty of room inside. read more

I went to Masa's cafeteria Saturday night for a reunion & was surprised by the size of this place. Perfect for any event you can think of. The food was ono, & they put out a large variety of entrees! Lomi salmon, crab casserole, mochiko chicken, bake ham, chicken long rice, kalua pig,ube potatoes, undagi, haupia, roast pork! Sorry if I missed anything but everything was broke the mouth ONO! There's also a stage for entertainment... so there... Everything you need for AWESOME PARTY! read more

I go here once a month or so for a quick homestyle lunch. The food is already made (thus the "Cafeteria" in the name), so it's a fast place to get lunch. Some of the food runs out if you go later so I get there at 12 or earlier. I usually eat the corned beef or fried chicken. But everything here is a winner. The regular size plate is huge, and the mini is like a regular size plate. read more

a no frills cafeteria setting, with decent parking + street parking available. at the recommendation of a friend, finally gave the place a try and wasn't disappointed! hawaiian plate today, good portio s and reasonably priced. I need a pillow and a cot!! read more

Attended a graduation party here this past weekend. I was super happy they have a/c, a stage up top and a podium on the floor. Great place for parties =) And the food...I saw a sign saying it's $9.95/person...not bad at all...fish tempura (my fave), their mac salad is winnahz, and andagi for dessert...awesome! And there weren't any glass or alcohal restrictions...everyone was walking around with their beer bottles. read more

Food is okay, nothing to write home about. The pricing is pretty steep for breakfast but the portions are good. They give toast with everything it's automatic.... read more

I can't believe no one has Yelp'd this place yet. I gotta go here. The portions are huge, and they give two pieces of buttered bread with every plate. If you're working on clogging those arteries, then this is the place to do it. I always go for the beef stew, but all the plates are good. read more

Wow if you are really hungry, you need to try Masa's. They have various daily specials, so I decided to try their Shoyu Chicken plate. Winnah! Taste just like homemade...and I'm very picky when it comes to shoyu chicken. The meat literally just fell off of the bones. Had it with brown rice and mac salad (not a fan), but it was very good! Prices are reasonable too! read more

Talk about NOSTALGIA at it's BEST! I'm 25 and I don't know how long this place has been around but all I know is that when I was younger, my mom would always take me here. My mom used to worked around the Mapunapuna area and she would always take be there for breakfast since I was 5 years old! Through the years though, I haven't been back only because of moving and with their hours being from 5:30am-1:30pm, it was hard with school and work. But then I came back there about week ago while on vacation from work and everything was like how I remembered it! The nice old ladies who had this presence like you were talking to your sweet Grandma, the nostalgic cafeteria style service line, tables, everything I remembered about this place was still the same! If you're looking for that HOMESTYLE COOKING and HUGE PORTIONS this place is truly the spot to go to. They would have about a 5 different items on their menu everyday, with Fridays being more of a HAWAIIAN STYLE PLATE theme. Their BREAKFAST is SUPER HOMESTYLE as well. Whatever breakfast you order, THE COFFEE IS FREE and it comes with COMPLIMENTARY TOAST! MASA's will always be one of those places that NEVER CHANGE with the times and it will always be a GOOD THING! Take your friend and family there whenever you can with their hours being the way it is, YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT! LAID BACK,NOSTALGIC,HOMESTYLE,HUGE PORTIONS,GREAT PRICES -- what a REAL place to it is SUPPOSED TO BE! read more

Went to Masas today for a take-out breakfast and the experience left a bad taste in my mouth. I ordered a side order of corned beef hash, one scoop of fried rice, and two eggs. I know they sell this combination as a complete meal, but the complete meal also comes with toast and coffee, which I did not want. The server took my order and charged me for the complete meal. When I explained that I did not want the complete meal and ordered side orders because I did not want the toast and coffee, she said "You can't do that." I looked at the side order menu and nowhere was it stated that you can't order sides if the combination is equivalent to a complete meal. The food was okay...standard cafeteria-style food. It was their lack of flexibility that I did not like. I will not be going back. read more

Cora and I went here for her neighbor's birthday party. I had the nishime, two pieces of fried chicken, and a shoyu pork that tasted like it was slow cooked. I was reading their take out menus while we were waiting for the birthday party to start. We found two typos in the menus. Before we left, I took four andagi doughnuts to go. There was a roll of aluminum foil at the end of the buffet line and a stack of paper plates. read more

This is a favorite place for breakfast and lunch. Big portion and reasonable prices. I love their breakfast special (my choices are cornbeef hash, scramble eggs, hash browns) come with toasts and sm coffee. For lunch, there are many choices, including daily specials. read more

Food is cheap and they really pile your plate to the top, I recommend ordering a small plate. Not unless your planning to go to sleep right after, then get the regular. read more

Delicious local style cafeteria food with generous portions. I've only been there for breakfast super early in the morning. Parking is terrible and the place gets busy, but it's worth every penny paid to consume great food. Decent customer service, but bland environment. read more

Can't believe no one has yelped about the pancakes!!!! Bar-none the best pancakes you ever had. Trust me on this, the best ever!!!!

Whenever I am in the area I get my corned beef hash breakfast plate at Masas. I love the little sweet old ladies that serve my food. I feel like their grandchild. I haven't tried much else on their menu b/c I am always content with my CBH. I also like the little fried doughy balls of goodness at the counter. They are only 1 buck for 3. One of these days I'll order something else, but until then I will keep this place on my hit list. Thanks MASA. read more

Standard fare for local cafeteria style food. Grab and go musubis, andagi, noodles, were good but not something I would crave. Probably your best option for food if you're waiting for your car to be serviced at Servco like I was. Just a block away! read more

The food here rocks and they are flexible if you request substitutions for the starchs. They pile on the food as well. There are lots of choices and not every choice is a homerun but you can order a mix plate of two to three choices. Try a few choices and ascertain your favorites. It is impossible to leave this place hungry. The girls serving food are always friendly. read more

The food is excellent! All of their foods are prepared and seasoned professionally. I recommend all their foods, regular menu and daily specials. The portion is just right but they need to improve their customer service. Recommend the food but not the service. read more

Its been about 30 years since ive been to this restaurant, and it was as good as i remember. Its simple cafeteria food, good prices and good food. The service was amazing and staff friendly and helpful. I order the wrong item and they were very helpful to correct. read more
