    This review is for the bakery. Ordered a cake three weeks in advance. I ordered a chocolate cake with fresh strawberries inside. The cake was awful. Not in taste but it was 100% dry, there was no bottom layer to the cake, and nothing to make the strawberries stick/stay in the middle (like frosting). The strawberries were also poorly picked even though it's strawberry season. They also did not follow design requests. In the picture you can see the strawberries were literally the "base" of the cake because no cake was under. You can also see how hallow/dry it was. By far the WORST cake I've ever bought. Will not be buying from here again. Paid $60 for this.

    You know what's up! Five Dollah DEALAGES on Fridays!

    I will have to admit, this particular Safeway location in Kapolei would not be a location I would frequent only because it's out of the way for me, but since I was hunting for some DEALAGES at the Reyn Spooner store at the Ka Makana Ali'i Mall, I'd figured I'd stop by this Safeway for some Friday DEALAGES!!! Located at the Kapolei Shopping Center, you can find this Safeway store just next door from Mamaya. A pretty big, clean, & well stocked store. Parking here is not an issue, as it's located at a major mall. I mainly came here for some Chicken Tenders, as on Friday they had da $5.00 DEALAGES for a pound of Chicken Tenders! Yum!!! The hot foods/deli dept. was pretty efficient. Although when I originally got in line to order my Chicken Tenders, as the line grew, another Safeway clerk stepped forward & provided additional support to expedite and cut down the line. I think Friday's are my favorite day to come to Safeway, as I'm always lookin' for DEALAGES Yo!

    DMV kiosk inside Safeway

    This Safeway offers so much. If I see something on the Tv and I can't find it at our local grocery stores Safeway is your best bet. I recently discovered that inside of this Safeway location there is a DMV kiosk. It is such a hassle to stand inline at the DMV or pay your registration through the mail. Once I paid my registration online and my registration got lost in the mail This year I decided to try the kiosk at Safeway. I found that not all the Safeways offer this convenient way of paying for your registration so please look on Yelp for your best option. The process was so easy to follow and you receive your registration and sticker right on the spot. Follow the easy prompts and VOILÀ.....

    Deli worker is puzzled and looking for my Turkey Online order. Mind you, she didn't find it!!
    Kathy N.

    On November 11th I placed an online order for a Thanksgiving Meal to go. I received a confirmation for my order, along with a confirmation number and time of pick-up. To be safe, I went into the store today to confirm my order, and according to the deli workers , my order was nowhere to be found. They looked through a pile of papers, and told me later that all orders were closed a few days prior to my email confirmation!! WTH!! I feel bad for others that will be going there on Thanksgiving Day to pick up there turkey, only to be FRUSTRATED, ANGRY and WITHOUT THEIR TURKEY meals FOR THEIR FAMILIES!!! HUGE FAIL!!! Kapolei Manager, you need to check your online orders!! Why were you still accepting orders if the promotion was already sold out!!! Why are you still advertising it on your menu board above the Deli section!!! HORRIBLE!!!!!! Giving you 1 star is way too much for your store!!! Get your act together is saying it mildly!!

    Stopped in for some last minute items. The store was clean and the staff I asked for help was helpful and non hesitant. All of the items I needed were in stock which is a plus and I also found some other items that I actually needed. The cashier that rang me up was also friendly. Safeway can be a bit pricey but they do have some great sales. I also love their floral department which is always in th3 differnt seasons or holidays.

    How can a store this size, servicing this many people, bring in ONLY SIX (6) Prime Rib Holiday meals??? And have it on Ad? Where's the logic?

    "Sometimes good enough is a better option than wasting resources trying to find an optimal…read moresolution". - Herbert Simon Walmart has pros and cons like most places that we all choose to shop at. I like the convenience of knowing that they open at 6am-ish... Most times it opens up around 6:04 to 6:05 depending upon who's in charge of that area. The store is typical of Wal Mart's layout. Rows and aisles of clothing, food, household goods, etc. Most employees are nice and some you can tell are just trying to make it until break time, which is okay because we all have "days". My biggest issue is having to navigate through aisles that are riddled with pallets and merch needing to be shelved. Sometimes they'll be multiple employees in one aisle with their merch carts crammed against each other try to stock shelves. They're focused and most often won't move for you to get your shopping cart through, let alone get what you need off of the shelf. There are (2) restrooms, one is located in the back near the fabric area and one across the cash registers next to the eyeglass shop. The bathrooms are always clean and stocked. Again, it's a toss up between speaking with a nice, cordial employee and an employee who's just going through it. My recommendation is to have a plan if you're short on time. Especially for people who start work at 6:30am and the store is slow to open at 6am. Have a plan and be ready to do an audible in the event that the area you need items from are congested with merch carts and pallets.

No help at all provided. With that being said, very poor service. Don't let them rush you, if you want green onions, tell em, you want eel sauce, tell em. Don't let these guys punk you. Other than that, nice grocery store, I've been here a few times and gotten a few things. Very clean inside too. Grocery prices are a little high but quality is there for the price.

All kinds of fruit and vegetables were available for sale along with fresh poi, filipino pastries, and a variety of fresh herbs. Half of the large parking lot at Kapolei Community Park is closed to allow the vendors to set up. They are all on the basketball court side of the park. Prices were really cheap and the vendors were really friendly. I definitely would go again. I am super happy with a bag of five tomatoes that I picked up for only $2! If you want Thai basil, it is only 50 cents a bunch, and pastries start at only 50 cents among lots of other items. Parking is street parking. There were lots of parking available. One thing though is that this farmer's market is a really early one ending at around 730 or 8 am. Cash only and open only on Sundays.

Among the selections: sweet onions, broccoli, cucumbers, peppers, basil (already made pesto tonight!), oranges, apples, potatoes (all kinds, including purple sweet), beans, lemons, key limes, and apple bananas. I will DEFINITELY be back. One downside is that you have to arrive early (between 7 and 7:30 a.m.). After that, they're getting ready to tear it down, so you almost feel as if you're being rude while they're cleaning up. Be sure to bring smaller bills and even coins. Also, pack some cloth grocery bags or bring a big purse.
