There's no doubt that Foodland is more expensive than Costco, but it's convenient and it's got…read moreyummy food so I give it 5 stars. You can easily grab a box of squid for fishing bait, grab a variety of poke options (with free samples), and even get prepared catered Hawaiian foods if you're hosting a big event. Yes, it's a grocery store, but it's got local flair, like when they had those fun poke and musubi themed beach towels. As I mentioned before though, it's more expensive than Costco though. I made the mistake recently of seeing there was a "big sale" on oranges so I grabbed 3 as an impulse buy. It was painful to see that those on sale oranges were $7, whereas I could've gotten more oranges for the same price as Costco. But like I said, it's convenient. If you live in Kailua, it's worth not having to drive all the way to town for food.

We like the hot food plates and their deli-items like chicken salad (both original and curry are tasty) . We also like their sale items. We tried their prepackaged pound hamburgers squares on sale last week when they were Buy-one-get-one-half-off, and the meat was great grilled. The prices are higher for some items than other markets, and lower for some items.

Safeway has been a staple on Oahu, long before the nearby grocery chain. Corporate chains...any…read morebiases aside...are a comfort to most consumers offering uniformity, consistency, and convenience. The Kailua Town location is off Hamakua Drive. Parking lot has a fair amount of stalls. Demographic is similar if perhaps older than Target's. I just went for a plastic container and came away with a kombucha and a Select ( Safeway's own...slap a label on it...brand ) sparkling water. Self-checkout kiosks make smaller purchases convenient. Store is clean, organized, and well-stocked. Police was busy near the entrance dealing with what appeared to be homeless man.

However, this last trip there seemed a bit off price wise. Yes, I know DTE has always been pricy - however, $7-$8 for a tofu musubi seemed wild to me. For TOFU? I remember these being between $3-$5 each not too long ago. Was there a tofu shortage that I was unaware of? Not sure. Either way, everything still tasted great as I remember. Just some questionable price raises.

Compliments to our waiter, Stacen. He was extremely friendly and helpful. My parents recommend the poke nachos. My mom really liked the fish tacos. "They were excellent", she said. My dad loved the caesar salad. "The hardboiled egg and delicately sliced avocado was a nice touch", my dad said. My sister loved the buttered pasta with Parmesan cheese. She said they put the perfect amount of cheese. I got the pasta with red sauce. It was delicious. I loved it. The red sauce was really good. Lastly, my sister and I got dessert. It was hard to choose which one we wanted, but finally, we decided to try the s'more brownie a la mode. It was amazing. My mom said that it was the best s'more brownie that she ever had. I agree, it was really good. By: a satisfied customer!
