The chicken katsu plate with two huge scoops of rice and a big scoop of that mac salad. It was the same fried chicke in bite size pieces and teriyake sauce to pour over top. Sweet Mother of Mercy everything was ono to the MAX. I highly recommend this Minit Stop for a meal.

Since being asked to have my Drivers License scanned to verify my age as they say, (I am over 40 years old), I have received Hundreds of Spam emails, advertisements, and other unsolicited responses. I would suggest if you can avoid this place to do so. I personally will not support a business that tries to retaliate against customers that have supported the business for 20+ years, only to see a corporate company take over, and treat customers like the trash! I will not do business with this branch until they change Management, policy, and attitude, as they treat their customers like they are the enemy! Avoid this place if you are able.

It had that small-town feel where you walk in and instantly feel welcomed, like you've been there before. We grabbed what we needed, but what stood out was the aloha spirit--real, not forced. The kind that reminds you why places like this matter, especially when you're out there trying to help and stay grounded at the same time. The hospitality hit different. Conversations turned into connections, and before we knew it, we were getting names of people in the area who could use a hand. That's the kind of place this is--it doesn't just serve the community, it is the community. Left with supplies, but more importantly, left with purpose and a deeper respect for the people holding it all together.

Got into the car and pulled out the most measly looking price of backbone I'd every seen I've heard stories of this happening to tourists but didn't expect it to happen to me I went back in and laid it on the counter and said, excuse me, I asked for a drumstick, not a backbone, and they apologized while the ladies in the back watched and they were laughing. My girlfriend that has lived on the island for the last 20 years, apologized for them and said that she should've gone in with me. I will say the fried chicken was good, but not worth the customer service

This is one tough pharmacy to review, because the actual employees are fantastic. The store staff?…read moreFriendly, funny, professional. The pharmacy team? Impressively efficient for a place where some customers routinely arrive looking like they just survived hand-to-hand combat with the American healthcare system. I live across the street (so convenient) but may need to drive elsewhere due to the issue with the so-called "ExtraCare" program, which increasingly feels less like a rewards program and more like a social experiment in corporate gaslighting. I pay monthly for promised discounts, yet every few days the system mysteriously kicks me out. One minute I'm enrolled, the next I'm standing at checkout completely disenfranchised while the cashier says, "Huh... it deactivated again." And to be crystal clear: this is NOT the fault of the employees. They repeatedly fix the issue with patience, humor, and professionalism. But when a paid membership keeps "accidentally" disappearing right before discounts apply, over and over and over again, reasonable people start asking reasonable questions. I have every reason to believe it is a scam. And that would be criminal. At this point, I've documented so many reactivations that I could probably teach a graduate seminar called Advanced Longs Drugs Fraud Detection. The pattern is so absurdly consistent that I've contacted an attorney for advice on legal action regarding what I believe are fraudulent business practices. Because if customers are paying for benefits that repeatedly vanish unless they catch the error themselves, that's not "ExtraCare." That's "Extra Charges." I genuinely hope the company fixes this, because the kind and professional employees deserve better than corporate systems that make customers feel like they're trapped in a subscription-based episode of Black Mirror.

I have never found what I was looking for on two visits. The staff is friendly. And the place has a lot of good character. But they need to ramp up the inventory.
