Maura Market is currently the only food game in town in Terminal A; fortunately the service is great and the food is good quality and delicious. The prices are reasonable and the servers are really pleasant. Every time we depart from this terminal, we stop by for a bite to eat before our 5 hour flight home. Mahalo Maura Market!

Noticed that this was a popular sit down place in terminal 1. We arrived before the surge. It was nice to just sit. Service was slow and the food took a good while to come out. Wasn't clear if we were going to get waters.... My burger was good - Hard to mess up a burger... My husband enjoyed his rice dish. We got a side salad and it was bad. I am glad I didn't go for a salad for my main dish.

I kind of rarely find myself in this side of the airport (I guess the mauka side), well really the Hawaiian Airlines (now Alaska Airlines?) side of the airport. The A gates are newer and fancier so maybe that's why I felt like I needed to sit down at a bar before my red eye flight? I guess when I'm flying United from the G gates, I never really have the urge to go to the restaurants down there. I'm pretty sure they have something very similar to the mauka market o the G gate side. It's probably even called makai market. lol. Anyway, TSA was a breeze. I think it always is on the Hawaiian Airlines side. But I had 2 hours before my flight boarded. I noticed on Yelp, the hours said that the restaurant would be closing, but they actually don't close until like 11 (maybe they stop taking orders at 10:30, but it was definitely later that whatever is officially posted). They were SO busy. There was no host, but there is a host stand. So I sat myself at the bar. I was pleasantly surprised to find very conveniently places outlets right under the bar counter. I hate when restaurants don't list prices next to cocktails. I immediately assume I'm going to get scammed, but they had fruity cocktails that appealed to me and I thought yolo, I'm on vacation. I'm not actually on vacation but in my head I have convinced myself that airports=vacation. I ordered new guava marg. It was very delicious. I liked that it had fancy flakey salt on the rim. It was also very expensive. Probably the most expensive margarita I've ever drank. I also ordered the burger. It was surprisingly pretty good for airport food. It was also expensive, but at least I knew what I was getting into because the price was listed on the menu. I liked that you could get a salad instead of fries, even though it would cost $3 more. I knew from the yelp pics that the burger came with a mayo sauce, so I stuck with the fries and it was a great combo. Using arugula in the burger was a delightful choice I don't normally see and the burger was cooked perfectly. Also, grilling the bread?? Fancy af... The bartender, Heidi, (I only remember because she has the same name as my MIL and looked kinda familiar), was sweet and definitely trying her best with all the cocktail orders and helping the people seated at the counter. Looked stressful, but she was handling it like a pro. They give a pineapple gummy with your receipt which is kinda cute. I think I'll have to be back next time I'm "on vacation". Haha but seriously I'm glad to know they are open late and serve decent food and drinks (even though it'll cost an arm and a leg).... In this economy, sheesh!

Last meal before my husband and my flight back home and it was a friendly, positive experience. Our server was very nice and all our drinks and food came out relatively quickly. We wanted to grab a couple drinks and burgers before we jump on our longer flight back home and this was right by our gate. The high top counter was clean and the drink options were good for being a quaint spot. Our burgers were alright for being an airport spot and not completely overcooked and dry. The onion marmalade added a little sweet tang and the fry seasoning and garlic aioli were good. Overall, the food came hot and the service was prompt and friendly. The taste of everything was alright, but honestly we had no complaints!

Disappointing experience! Our flight to Japan was delayed, so my family and I decided to grab a bite near our gate and came across Mauka Market inside the Hawaiian Airlines terminal. It looked like a nice bar/restaurant, and the standing menu outside caught our eye. We decided to try the chicken teriyaki bowl and ahi bowl. When we went in, there were no signs saying whether to seat ourselves or wait to be seated. The only person visible was the bartender, who was already busy. We were about to find a seat when someone (who seemed to be a waiter) called us over from the opposite side and seated us. We noticed QR codes on the tables to order, which was convenient, but once we scanned it, the online menu didn't include the items we saw outside. After waiting a few minutes, the waiter returned and handed us a paper menu... and again, those items weren't listed. When I asked about it, he said it was the "morning menu." Morning menu? At 4:30 pm? That didn't make sense. He then took away the standing menu from outside and went to another table without taking our order. At that point, we decided to leave. Very disappointing experience overall. Confusing menus, no clear service process, & poor communication. With so many other food options in the airport, we'll definitely pass on this place next time.

Burger

Decent option for the airport! Burger was delicious and enough to split before our plane ride. Plenty of seating, bar, high tops, and regular tables.

Mahi Mahi bowl.
Andilee J.

The mahi mahi bowl was fantastic!Quality ingredients and amazing flavor. A little bit of sweet and spice. Delicious! The perfect serving size as well. Service was wonderful. Server preferred I used the QR code, which makes the restaurant feel a little less high end, and a little more like a chain restaurant. Fairly busy during lunch which I am sure is impart to the great food. Not a quiet setting as you are in terminal A. Glad I happened to be there for a flight to try this place out.

BBQ Pork Sandwich with spicy fries
Gerry L.

My flight was leaving at 11:45pm from gate A10 and I arrived at the airport around 9pm, after putting in a full day at the office. Almost nothing in the main terminal was open but the Mauka Market in terminal 1 was open so I stopped in for a drink and a snack. Dallas, my server / bartender, was very friendly and I ordered a double Hendricks gin & tonic ($25.49) and a BBQ Pork sandwich ($22.99). It was nice to see Hendricks on the shelf at an airport lounge and the BBQ pork sandwich was good but needed a touch more BBQ sauce. The accompanying fries were dusted with a spicy powder ... I would have preferred "normal" fries. In any case, it was a surprisingly good meal at the airport.

Eating at stopovers in Honolulu airport. Becoming harder and harder to fly direct from San Francisco to Kauai, or Maui, with stopovers in Honolulu airport to change planes. We ate at the Mauka Market, which is a restaurant in terminal 1 at the Honolulu airport. Noisy, crowded, typical open restaurant with no walls and minimal ambiance and privacy. The $25 teriyaki chicken came with rice, sauteed vegetables, scallions, nori on a bed of black seaweed. I suppose you could use the almost tasteless seaweed as a tortilla, but it wasn't strong enough and would tear to pieces in your hand. Decent amount of boneless sliced teriyaki chicken, with the glaze giving it some added flavor to the ginger flavored chicken. Wife had the $26 ahi poke with rice, cherry tomato, cucumber, avocado and pickled vegetables to give it added flavor. She ate it all, as not a whole lot of ahi tuna compared to the much larger portion of leafy greens. Yes, they have burgers with fries, and its only $23. $3 bacon and $3 avocado extra. Compare to $25 burger at SFO, one of the few times food is cheaper in Hawaii than CA.

We had a few minutes to kill before our flight to LAS. Enter Mauka Market as it's always cocktail o'clock time! ATMOSPHERE: Located in the new Hawaiian Airlines wing of HNL, I had no idea they existed. Seating was plentiful as the terminal wasn't busy. They're definitely not as crowded as nearby Stinger Ray's. MENU: Cocktails, beer & wine. Burgers, sandwiches, ramen, rice bowls and breakfast items. BEVERAGE: Mionetto Prosecco Cheap price with a matching taste that was a tad too sweet for my liking. SERVICE: Bartender greeting was immediate and service quick & friendly. OVERALL: Fair-priced menu with nice selections.

6AM is never too early when you're traveling
Ran C.

Single malt Scotch whisky at 6 AM is never too early when you're flying. So, don't judge. But I was following tradition and grabbing myself a drink before I boarded my flight from Oahu, back to Los Angeles. No food. Just the drink. Figured I'd eat whatever breakfast was served up on the plane. Not to mention, I wasn't hungry. So, sitting at the bar as the first customer, where the bar and dining area is wide open - I'm sure people were looking at me and probably wondering if I was gonna be one of "those" guys on the plane. Not just because I was drinking that early - but because I had asked to take a pic of the bottle and the server had left it by me so it looked like I was seriously drinking. Not that service was bad - the place just opened and she was setting up as well as helping a few other guests. She checked up on me and was so sweet asking me if I wanted a chaser. None of that or training wheels for me. I enjoy finding places like this at airports I fly to from time to time. So, I can follow tradition with my usual send off before hopping into a metal tube and flying high.

Before our flight, towards the end of the airport, sits Mauka Market, which was part market (very tiny are) and part restaurant, and part bar. It kind of does a little bit of everything, but that isn't strange to some of the other markets I've been to in Waikiki that does the same with doing various things at once. They have a menu that's got a bit of everything cuisine wise. Prices were comparable to what you would find elsewhere, so I guess that's a compliment considering airport food is generally more expensive. There are some other food options you will pass by on the way to this area of the airport, but none of them will offer a nicer sit down experience like Mauka. Service here was good, even though it could be self ordering, they still had waiters that came by to help us out with direct ordering. We got the ramen and the burger today. The burger was nice, as it was cooked just right, and also tasted good. The beef they used was tender. I do wish the burger sauce they had, had more sauce on there since it tasty, but not too little. The black garlic ramen was quite good, and I was surprised the slices of chasu they included were nicely seared and also thick and fatty. For an airport ramen, this was quite solid. Overall, Mauka Market will be a good visit for a final destination of food. While it's not going to be a very Hawaiian send off necessarily as the menu items are far ranging, the food quality here speaks for itself. Just be aware though because it's a sports bar like setting too, depending on the season and day, the sit down part might be nosier than one would like.

We wanted to grab a quick bite so we saw Mauka Market, located in Terminal 1 in Daniel K Inouye International Airport (HNL). The service from Lisa was nice and friendly! She was sweet and funny. I was thinking one last taste of Hawaii with a Loco Moco, but my wife was not too hungry, so I switched to the... Hawaiian Footlong: beer-braised all beef hot dog, grilled pineapple, bacon, katsu sauce, scallions, sweet bun. Served with togarashi fries (4/5). It's a hot dog but it was pretty good sized dog. It would have been nice to have more grilled pineapples tidbits on it. The gochujang sauce that Lisa brought out separately was delicious! I asked them to not to include it on the fries. Apparently it has the togarashi seasoning and gochujang sesame seed sauce on the fries. Nice place to get food at before or after your flight.

Personally I think 100 people is the perfect count for this place - not too crowded but not empty. Rusty who is the POC for hosting parties there is always responsive, flexible and kind. The staff is also very accommodating and helpful. The first time we booked was back in 2023 and it was when they were first opening up as a venue. Prices were super reasonable in 2023. We booked another party in 2025 and prices were still very reasonable. We decided to cater through them for our party. I was a tad skeptical but was proven wrong. For a party of roughly 75, we ordered just one pan of each thing and it was more than enough. We had the fried noodles, fried rice, short rib, smoke meat, chicken wings., lumpia and fried ahi. The food was Ono!! It was so good that we thought about catering from them even if we don't have a party there. I think his name was Clyde or Klein who cooks the food - bolohead guy. I think the only take away is that you have to keep the doors closed for AC which makes sense but if you have a jumper outside it's hard to see and the kids will keep going in and out. Overall, a super great venue to hold parties with great staff.

However, they told me they don't take reservations and to just walk in. Well, we got there and had to wait 58 minutes before we got seated. Pro tip: just have them put you down on the list. Don't listen about not taking reservations for large parties. I found out after that a group of 8 got reservations for 6:30 so I was quite unhappy about that. It didn't help that there was a table with 3 people who were there since 3pm (it was already 7:58 at this point) who were still occupying the tables and the staff couldn't make them leave. They eventually moved them to another smaller table, but they could have done that sooner, just saying. Not the restaurant's complete fault, people can be extremely inconsiderate but there maybe should be a system for dealing with these types of situations. All they had were empty bottles, they were not ordering anything. Anyway, we finally got seated, and as expected, the food didn't disappoint. We got the Tasty Chicken (always a must), boneless kalbi (super tender and flavorful), loco moco (one of the best on the island) and oxtail soup (theirs is pretty solid). We also got pumpkin crunch, strawberry crunch, and cream cheese brownie. Everything was amazing as usual and they all said it was the best food they had on-island during their trip. The food was worth the wait, but, that wait could've truly been avoided. It's not somewhere you take a first date unless you are bowling because it is super loud. It is located in an out of the way, not really scenic spot. Parking can be a bear. But it remains to be one of those tried and true "local" spots that never fail to please. *Rating is solely for the food and reliability of the excellent flavors and quality of the food

Underdogs is actually a lot bigger than it appears from the outside, which is sort of nondescript - so much that you could easily miss it from the street. Lots of dining seating on the inside and plenty of room at the bar. Lots of flat screens on the walls, too, so I'm pretty sure this spot gets crowded during football season. Like many other bars around town, they have open mic karaoke. This spot is country-music friendly, so make sure your Garth Brooks is on point. Lots of local pupus in their menu. Kind of hungry so we ordered the following: - Dynamite chicken - 7/10: I would say it's like chicken karaage with lots of Sriracha mayo drizzled on top along with bonito flakes. Large and shareable pieces for maybe 2-3. Very filling and tasty. - Fried rice with smoked meats - 6/10: large portion shareable between 2-3 people. Good dish and they give you a lot of smoked pork meat. Unfortunately, the pieces were quite tough. Rice was on point and flavorful, however. This is a great spot to chill with nice people in a comfortable, unpretentious environment. Go off the beaten path for once and check this spot out as a great time was had by all.

(Queue Cheers Theme Music)…read more.. "Sometimes you want to go, where everybody knows your name, and they're always glad you came. You wanna be where you can see, our troubles are all the same, you wanna be where everybody knows your name". I had to get that out of my system. Just like the sitcom...The 10th Puka is one of those bars that serves up good drinks and good times without breaking the bank. Now, I have to say without making the Puka sound pretentious, it caters to a select crowd. Needless to say you have to be able to access Hickam AFB (Active Duty, Reserve, Guard, Retired) or be a guest of a military friend in order to partake in the festivities. The Puka is not flashy or fancy and can be compared to the corner pub in Anytown, USA, and that's its appeal. It's totally different (and a good change of pace) from the bars and clubs which dot Waikiki. The don't serve up any food, but there is a Mexican place right next door which will bring food over to your table at the Puka!! Mexican delivery to a bar!!? It doesn't get any better than that. The busiest night by far is every Friday starting at about 1600 ish (that's 4 pm for you civilian types) and it runs till about midnight. Friday also features Karaoke which is always fun after you've had one too many. The folks that run the Karaoke are always taking suggestions and updating their playlists, so that's pretty cool. The other nights of the week are pretty slow, with a regular crowd. Friday is definitely when it gets packed. The Puka is definitely a spot where you can gather with friends, let your hair down and kick a few back after a stressful week. Oh did I mention that the lanai back to a golf course? Hmm, cool bar, good drinks, food next door, Karaoke and a view, that's what I'm talking about! So if you find yourself on Hickam on a Friday night I would recommend stopping by.

If I remember correctly it was Kalua pork nachos and man this place does it right! Pulled pork topped with all the cheese, jalepeno, olives, and so on, but man that pork was on point. It wasn't too wet or dry just right and tender. Man my mouth is watering right now. On Friday nights, they do set up a huge Karaoke system, so you can sing your heart out to a lot all night.
