STEVE's AKAKA FALLS FARM Jams, Butters & Honey: This review…read moreis specifically for Steve's Akaka Farms Giving them 5 stars for their great tasting jams, butters, and honey! Giving 5 stars for Katy, who works at the Pearlridge Farmers Market location in Saturdays. She is a ray of sunshine, with her great smile and loves to share samples of their product. Be careful, though because when you taste the delicious products you'll have to get something! Their passion fruit habanero is amazing with cream cheese and crackers or as a glaze for meats. If you combine it with cream cheese it softens the heat. They do have one with ghost peppers or Caroline Reaper peppers but beware - I bought it for my friend who loves heat and she said it's really hot! They have amazing butters - try any of their chocolate butters and you'll think you are in heaven! Note-these are seasonal so there may be different ones available when you visit. Award winning Coconut black chocolate is absolutely amazing, rich, and decadent and the best way to eat this is to get a big spoonful then just sit there and savor the flavor. The Kona coffee dark chocolate is also amazing. Hard to decide which is better! Got a jar if passion fruit Hawaiian pepper (chili pepper) smoked pineapple Kentucky whiskey to use as a glaze for meat. Can't wait to use it. These also make great gifts to send to or give to suiting folks from the mainland to give them a taste of Hawaii. I like the POG jam for islanders who have relocated to the mainland because it's like a taste of home. Kona coffee butter and mango are also divine. I have the mango for me...! I also got a jar of the mango honey and it's marvelous, too! These are high quality and a bit pricey, but after going to the craft fair at the Blaisdell, the prices are not too much more if not comparable. ...AND they are available weekly! If you go and sample a flavor you like, be sure to ask if it's seasonal (such as mango) or not. If it's seasonal - get it. It may not be available again until the next season. Me

Stumbled across the Pearlridge Farmers Market only because I had to kill some time because my car…read morewas being serviced across the street @ Firestone. 1st time here and poor thing very small Farmers market with probably less than 30vendors . A mix array of vegetables, produce and food booths. In the middle there's a small tent for dinning along with live entertainment. I walked around less than 10mins nothing really cached my eye . It's hard nowadays because on a Saturday other big farmers market is going on ! The KCC and Kakaako farmers Market is also on a Saturday. Support local

One of the biggest swap meets on the island, and probably the most popular. There are dozens of…read morevendors, and yeah, some of them sell similar stuff, which honestly works in your favor if you're trying to grab souvenirs without paying Waikiki prices. But if you want something a little more special, definitely look for the local vendors. There are some great spots with handmade items. A few of my favorites that I actually bought from and brought home and I am using: - Cheeky Beach: super cute beachwear by Vivian and her son (they also have a shop in Haleiwa) - Touch of a Goddess: handmade jewelry by a mother-daughter duo - Leonardo Dale Photography: beautiful photo art of the island now displaying at my house. There's a ton to see, so go with time, it's a big market. They also have food and sometimes live music. Admission is $2 per person (cash only), and I'd recommend bringing cash since a lot of vendors don't take cards.

The stalls consolidated across the street and rather than walking all round the stadium, the stalls are lined in neat rows (some in conexs that open up to be a store. All my favorite stalls seem to have made the move - the food trucks have also made the trek across the street. Parking is available in the back and also by the tram station parking lot - just need to walk a little bit. Cost remains $1 for Kama'ainas *locals) and active duty military, $2 for all else. A great place to purchase touristy items, but also stuff you don't think you need until you see it. Check it out! I'm glad the authorities realized the need to keep the Aloha Swap Meet.

There is a little mix of shade and direct sun so it is enjoyable to go for a leisurely stroll, look at the vendor offerings and get food or snacks. It is on the ocean so you can walk by the water and enjoy the view later. The Farmers Market is located in two parts so you cross the street to get to the rest of the market. There is parking in the street and close by so it isn't too bad finding parking.

So many great vendors on both sides of the street. I always go get the green juice, the handmade Chinese noodles are great, and I love the Almond tree toffee. This time I did try the loaded hash browns from a certain stand where I can't remember the name, but it was in the middle. They were amazing and probably the best hash browns I've ever had - crispy on the outside and hot on the inside. My son ended up eating the whole thing! Vermilli is a small booth that sells clothing and I always end up buying something from there. The woman who owns it has been there every time, and I love her designs. Such a great place to shop local and they always have someone playing music!

Great place to get produce at reasonable prices. I get my papayas and dragon fruit here when they…read moreare in season. Theres also a fish and meat market area in the back as well as ready made Filipino food/snacks. It gets crowded on weekend mornings but so worth it in my opinion! They accept card, but I always also bring cash just in case I don't meet the minimum spending amount.

I want to give it more stars but I have my reasons. I don't want to put down any business…read moreespecially small businesses in there. There are a ton and they are all fun. It's just extremely congested and sometimes too busy inside. Cleanliness can be an issue for some but for the most part I'm buying vegetables and fruit and that's enough for me. I used to take my knives to be sharpened in this area but this review is just for the vendors I shopped at. I needed papaya, fresh vegetables and fruits. I saw many vendors that share the same items so sooner or later if you become a regular you will have your favorite vendor you will lean towards. They have vendors that sell already prepared mainly Filipino foods and desserts. They have vendors that sell you fresh fish and seafood as well as fresh meats. I always go to farmers market but I decided to start shopping here. It's convenient for what I was looking for. I see I can buy seasonings and noodles (dry packets) as well as many other things. I will return again when I'm running low on stuff. The prices aren't terrible but not that inexpensive either. You can find some bargain vegetables that aren't pretty but for $1 a piece it's good if you're using them up that day. I say try and go around and see what you can find. Plenty of convenient parking. Nearby outside there's Kamehameha bakery, sugoi'a and other eateries. Nearby is Costco and Costco gas and Home Depot so you can't go wrong.

Ok so I must say I love the fact that this farmers market is in my neighborhood!..maybe that's…read morebeing bias but really, the food is great and more vendors are adding onto the list every Monday. Its also nice running into friends and catching up while enjoying good food. Ok so the food... Since I love it so much its pretty hard to disappoint me but Id say i'm a good food critic. First off I have to admit ive had the best padthai and stirfry at Olay's Thai food. Im half Thai so I should know what i'm talking about right? Anyways, get a 2 choice and instead of rice substitute it with padthai! Mmmm you'll feel like you've just taken a quick vacation to Bangkok haha! Then there's Manny's bakery, ooh my, he's definitely going to make me fat. Baked goods galore! He promises that his Spanish rolls are better than infamous Nandings bakery. Ha! I bet you it is! not only does it taste BETTER, its BIGGER!! and I almost forgot, I absolutely LOVE the Onion Hopia! Mmm, its like sitting at the white sand beaches in Boracay! Heaven! Check it out every Monday 3-730p! If you don't know where Foster Village its, its across Radford.High school near the Stadium.

They had soursop for $1.99/lb! I bought a small and a large one, so sweet. They even had Filipino foods there. I had an Ilocos empanada. I never knew this empanada existed. It was so good dipped in garlic vinegar. I have to say, I'm so glad my friends brought me here since it was hard to find a farmers' market near Ko'Olina. Mahalo!

One of my fondest childhood memories is going to Tamashiro Market with my dad…read more When we lived in Kalihi, this was our usual spot. And even after we moved, we would still drive out just to come here for the seafood. That's how special it was to us. The reason why he chose Tamashiro over other grocery stores was simple--it was quality and because of my Nanay (grandma). His mom purchased from here and made so many delicious dishes. He knew what to look for, and he trusted this place. For him, it wasn't just about buying food... it was about getting the best for his family. My dad isn't the type to say "I love you." He shows it. One of the biggest ways he showed love was through his cooking. Even after a long day on his feet cooking for others, he would come home and cook for us. That was his way of taking care of us. I loved coming here with him. It was a five-senses overload--the smell of fresh seafood, the sound of people talking story, the colors of fish on display. Back then when you were allowed to sample a grape or poke to make sure it was good before buying. But more than that, it was time with him. I still remember the excitement I felt when I saw the pink building with the huge crab. I thought back then was to look at everything but now I understand that it meant something more..... something special--time with my dad. It's with a sad heart that Tamishiro Market is now closed. Thank you, Tamashiro, for providing quality food and memories for so many years. You were more than a market--you were part of my childhood

Goodbye to another Hawaii landmark! Tamashiro Market is closing its doors on April 30, 2026…read more FPO and I went the Sunday before for one last tour of the legendary fish market. It looked the same as it did the first time I went with my grandfather. I picked up a couple pounds of dry aku for my favorite sister and some tee shirts as memorabilia. It was pretty busy and I expect that will continue until They close. Still, the people were nice and very helpful. I'm really going to miss it!

Okay, I've only been here technically once, but I have to say:…read more The first time I went here and got Thai food. The pumpkin curry bowl with sticky rice and the pork skewers are AMAZING. The second time, my boyfriend got produce from vendors bring home ingredients to make pico de gallo, and it was so fresh that a quart and a half disappeared in two days. BUT the main reason I'm writing this is for the gentleman that makes one of the TOP THREE pastas I've had IN HAWAII. First is probably Uni pasta (or something else pasta) from Arancino Kahala. Second is La Cucina. Third, but coming up very close is this random never would have suspected it farmer's market pasta. Carbonara and Amatriciana. Just get those. It's gonna take 30 minutes, even if you get there early. It's one guy making pasta from scratch, fresh, with noodles and sauces that he made from scratch. Just put your order in, go buy your veggies and bread, wander around to look at booths, then come back. My boyfriend hates waiting in line but he said he would wait an hour for this. We left some of it out and ate it five hours later and it was STILL delicious, even all cold. Even the best restaurant stuff you save isn't THIS good later on. I don't like that I spilled this secret spot, but I really hope he opens his own restaurant one day, if he wants to. I would eat his pasta and bread every day and enjoy every pound that I put on!

Ordered the Blacked Ahi ($10). It was ONO! Guys, you need to try this. The ahi was cooked perfectly and they serve it with brown rice and salad. It was delish. I definitely want to come back and check out other vendors!
