The largest and best mall in the Waikiki Beach area. The food court offers oh so many orgasmic choices, it's mind-blowing, really. There are also lots of shops, some I've never seen before in person on the East coast of the United States (like Alo! 😃). Great for walks, eats, and whatever your heart desires. 😍😍😍 Just bring enough 💰, cause you know, 💸 💸💸. 😂😂😂

Ala Moana Center is a shopper’s paradise! World-class brands, island vibes, and open-air beauty all in one. From luxury to local, dining to dancing—this is Hawaii’s retail heartbeat. A must-visit! Been here several times and will be back. Love all the food, shopping and entertainment options here including the beach and park across the way. 🌸🏝🍍

May2025 Touted as the best 👌 mall in the country. It is definitely big and has a lot of areas but finding your way here can be a challenge. Bigger is not always better though. The place is a combo of open and closed areas. Parking areas are a bit chaotic and maze like. Definitely a very active and busy place with lots of stuff to do and purchase.

Ala Moana has something for everyone! Great shops (luxury, local, kid friendly) and great food! Everything from hot pot, bars, Chinese, bakeries and grab and go! Local entertainment at various stages throughout the shopping center makes it extra special!

We stopped in here on our way to Sam's Club. This mall is huge. It's an outdoor mall but it doesn't really feel like it. It's designed as though it's indoors. It took us a while but we finally made it through. Lots of high end names but also includes a Target.

Great old mall that’s definitely always a destination when in Oahu. So many stores that make your money vanish !! Fancy clothing stores, great amount of unique stores like Yeti, accessories like crazy watches, giant candy stores, huge food courts … I could go on and on!

Went there for the free luau at 5 PM and it didn’t disappoint. We weren’t willing to drop $200 on two people so we decided to try the free one. It was very short but also very beautiful. We took time to visit the mall and enjoy the scenery.

Great mall in Honolulu! It’s a massive, four-level open-air mall with luxury brands and two excellent food courts. You’ll find a wide variety of Asian-inspired dishes, including sushi, soups, fresh fruit juices, desserts, and more.

If Valley Fair took a tropical vacation, it'd look a lot like Ala Moana Center. This outdoor mall is clean, vibrant, and full of island charm with palm trees, ocean breezes, and a great mix of shops. You've got everything from Nordstrom and Macy's to Ross, Old Navy, Coach, Target, Foodland, and yes, an ABC Store. There's something for everyone, whether you're after high-end or budget finds. The food court is massive, with local and international favorites. Jamba Juice, Raising Cane's, Happy Lemon, Jollibee, Sbarro, and a wide range of Asian eats make it a foodie paradise. One of my favorite places to explore in Honolulu. Great for shopping, snacking, and soaking up the vibe.

This mall is hella big. It has just about every store you need. There are also many, many restaurants in addition to their food court. Parking is free also. We always try to visit this mall at least once when we visit Oahu because there are always new restaurants here. There are luxury stores (not my style) but there are affordable stores too (like Uniqlo and Target, lol).

We wanted a fun shopping day and ventured to Honolulu. Be warned -- if you are near north shore Oahu it is VERY difficult to get an Uber. We got very lucky and met a woman that ended up being our uber for our whole trip. This mall is truly beautiful! We saw hula dancers performing, the people were all very friendly, everything was clean. I took a star off because of the options for stores. There were SO many high price stores like Tiffany or Cartier that it didn't leave a whole lot for options. We didn't find some cute surf shops and some decor stores. I wished I was able to bring more home with me. Waikiki is right there too, but same issue -- just a lot of fancy stores. If you want cuter stuff you need to go to north shore. Would I go to the mall again? Yeah, I would.

Nice outdoor mall. It is huge. My sisters and I came here during our visit in Hawaii. When we travel, we like to checkout at least one mall. Lots of different shops and a huge food court. There were live performances while we were there. This is also a supermarket by the parking garage. Parking is free.

I absolutely love Ala Moana Center! Fun fact: it's the world's largest open-air shopping center, and with over 350 shops, it really has something for everyone. Whether you're a dedicated shopper or just looking for a fun day out, this place won't disappoint. Over the years, I've come to appreciate not only the shopping but also the extra touches that make Ala Moana so unique. There are two food courts--one on the ground level and a smaller one near Macy's on the second level--both offering a fantastic array of options. On the ground floor, you can grab everything from fast food and pizza to Asian cuisine, smoothies, and even healthy alternatives. I love wandering around and sometimes even snag a sample from one of the food vendors! What really sets Ala Moana apart, though, is the experience. There are koi ponds, photo ops, and even an arcade area to keep you entertained. They host in-store demos, classes, and a variety of live performances on the center stage, which always adds an exciting vibe to the atmosphere. The mall is organized into three levels that cater to different tastes. For instance, I find the ground level perfect for souvenir shopping and enjoying the food court (plus there's a Foodlands right there for everyday needs). The second level is home to higher-end and luxury stores like Lululemon and the Apple Store, while the third level is geared toward a younger crowd with shops like Windsor, PacSun, and Abercrombie & Fitch, along with some great late-night dining options like Lucky Strike and Buffalo Wild Wings. There's even a Target on site! One of my favorite things is how the space blends indoor comfort with an outdoor feel--local music, lush palm trees, and that open-air design really create a relaxed, inviting ambiance. And parking? They've got a huge multi-level garage surrounding the center, so even during busy times, you usually find a spot. But the best part of all? The staff. Every store I've visited has had friendly, reliable customer service that makes you feel truly welcome--it's like a little slice of paradise in the middle of Honolulu. Rain or shine it's a great destination to check out. Whether you're shopping till you drop or just enjoying a leisurely day out, Ala Moana Center is a must-visit destination.

This is one of the largest shopping centers in US. It's a beautiful mall to stroll around, shop and eat. The food court is huge with atleast 20 or more options. We have visited this mall frequently I noticed now they have been bringing in more affordable retailers so a good mix of shopping. Definitely a worthwhile stop on Oahu.

If you have some time or want to get some shopping done in Honolulu, this is the place to do it. Ala Moana Center has it all and then some! Over the years I have finally completed the enter mall only to discover the new Target followed by a trip to the Lanai. Always a good time and a short trip to the beach too. Remember to check out the businesses on the outskirts too like Fitted, Tattoo Hawaii and Teapresso!

Cute little open-ceiling mall in Ala Moana, conveniently splat right next to our hotel. My friend and I did struggle to get in, especially since the place is wrapped in a maze of parking lots and it's huge. Without a car, navigating your way inside as a tourist can be a bit of a hike. One star off for that. Definitely way more convenient if you're driving. Once inside, though, it's pretty impressive. You've got your luxury heavy-hitters like Tesla mixed in with regular mall staples. True to standard mall form, there's a food court -- but this one feels a little elevated (maybe that's just Hawaii flexing). We found some gems, like Musubi Cafe. I internally screamed when I saw the menu. Tons of seating and it wasn't too crowded either time we visited. Bonus: restrooms are tucked in the corner of the food court and easy to find. Outside the mall, though, things were a little sketchier. There were some individuals experiencing homelessness in the parking lot area. The air smelled kind of off in certain spots, and we had a couple unsettling encounters -- one man kept biking in circles nearby, and another older woman stood silently, visibly shaking. Nothing happened, but it definitely gave us pause and made the entrance feel less safe and welcoming. Also, one time I wandered down an elevator thinking it was the exit. Ended up in a series of ancient, dim hallways with exit signs pointing in different directions. The more I walked, the more hallways there were with no visible exit -- very much "turn around before this becomes a horror game" vibes.

Awesome place to visit if you're a tourist and your first time here in Oahu! My family and I stopped by here twice during our stay. There are PLENTY of things to see and do here. Lots of shopping to have had and food to eat. Their food court is large but there's also a lot of food shops around the entire mall. If you're a tourist, I highly recommending stopping by here and looking around. You'll spend a lot of time here and it's also the largest open air mall!

I find Ala Moana Center a pretty safe location to go walking. But please do not walk here too early in the morning or one hour after the stores close. There are three or more levels to walk. The street level is safe during daylight hours. The mall level has more foot traffic so it's pretty safe to walk here during store hours. The top level is designed a bit awkward for walking as there are many bends and curves on the top level. Usually there are quite a few people, elders, retirees, young ones and employees on the mall level. Lower levels are okay but go with a walking buddy. Lots of window shopping and if you need a quick cool down, walk into a store. Pick up a beverage or snack at one of the many food courts. Many public and store restrooms are available at AMC. Keep on walking everyone. Just do it safely.

Ala Moana Center is the largest open air outdoor shopping mall! When I was younger, I never saw the attraction to coming here. But, as I got older, I learned to appreciate and understood why so many people like to shop here! This mall has 4 levels of shops, restaurants, etc. It's a great place to bring your family or meet up with friends and spend a day here. They are anchored by some big brands here like "Bloomingdale's, Macy's, Marshalls, Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom, Ross Dress for Less, Saks Off 5th, and Target".

Ala Moana Center is one of the largest malls around in North America, and it certainly stands up to that billing. It's located away from the Waikiki area, and will require driving or an uber to get to this location. It's a very large open air shopping mall, which you can't even see the end of the mall from one side to the other, so that just gives you an idea of how big this mall really is. It's large enough that the two different sides of this mall, each side is probably still larger than most malls you've been to. There's a variety of things here, from various food courts located within on both ends of this mall, to the wide variety of shopping options from clothing, to fun stuff, to random leisure spots around, it's got basically everything besides a beach that is. There are two floors, kind of, for this mall. Some areas of this mall have two floors of shopping, while the other parts are just the parking areas mostly, or smaller store fronts that are just on the outside with random shops here and there. The driving and parking here however is, chaotic, slow, and frustrating. For a shopping mall this large I feel one could have done a better job designing how the traffic flows here, but it is what it is. Parking here also is not easy during peak times, and you maybe circling around for awhile before you find a spot. But the open air shopping is really what makes this a fun shopping experience, especially since this place basically has everything you want from a mall, even an escape room! I would definitely pay a visit here, especially if you have no other particular plans, to come down to Ala Moana Center for some shopping, food, and fun.

I came here on vacation and the mall is pretty big! If you're nearby it may be better to walk because there can be some traffic entering the parking garages. There are sooo many different types of stores definitely will be something for everyone. I especially like the top floors because they're open air. Definitely a place to visit!

If you are a shopaholic Ala Moana Mall is definitely the place to stop. It is a huge 3 story open air mall that offers a good variety of retail shopping. There is also one of the biggest food courts I've ever seen that is sure to please everyone in your party. A good place to go if you need some retail therapy while on the island.

Ala Moana center has drastically changed since its beginning, it was once a simple mall and lots of places to shop. Now it is like a super mall with lots of new restaurants and stores to choose from. You can even test drive a Tesla while you there. It added a third level of shopping and the food court offers a kinds of grinds. Gotta check it out if you like shop, or window shop for that matter.

3:30pm Monday Found parking near Auntie Anne's pretzels, very quickly. Guest services is located ground floor under the excalators /stairs, mauka of Makai Market. Use the auto door opener with the back of your hand. Touch nothing when conducting transaction. Purchased a $200 gift card for $205. The $5 is a service fee. Ala Moana gift cards are good for 8 years. Each gift card comes with a card information pamphlet. (The card is an Amex gift card.) Guest services offers complimentary gift wrapping of up to 3 items/day. Items must be purchased same day. Staff are very friendly, helpful, courteous and knowledgeable.

We walked 3 miles today to this huge monstrosity of a mall called Ala Moana. This sucker is a four story mall that is 3-4 city blocks long and wide. It boasts OVER 350 shops! So, the attraction here was this huge mall itself. The food court alone covered the area of at least a football field. This cavernous feeling establishment just blew us away, there was simply not enough time to even explore just the first floor here. Over 350 shops, trying to wrap my head around that. It turns out that this is the eighth largest shopping mall in the US.... There are larger ones? Woof... We stopped in at a small shop called Teapresso. Highly caffeinated delicious cold drinks! After walking three miles in the Honolulu heat, this was the break we needed to cool off, rehydrate and get ramped up on some caffeine. All the shops we did visit were very welcoming with many handing out free samples of chocolates, biscuits and other tasty items.

I moved into an apartment within walking distance to Ala Moana Center. I love the convenience of having so many stores and restaurants in one place. The major downside is the parking structure - the Lot on Kona near Piikoi is always dirty - it smells and even during the daytime, it doesn't always feel safe to walk through the lot to get to Foodland from the Kona Street side.

Ala Moana Center is a large shopping mall that boasts of high end stores such as Gucci, Rolex, and Bloomingdale's; additionally, there are more affordable options to choose from: Old Navy, Stussy, Macy's, etc. There are plenty of restaurants and a large food court available to satiate your appetite as you shop, and they even have live music and performances. To get here, you can take the Waikiki Trolley. They have an all day pass for $5.50 that takes you throughout Waikiki. If you want to get your shopping on, this is a great place to go.

When in Waikiki, go shopping right? I mean, if that's what you're into, sure why not! I'm not anymore lol. This mall reminded me of Fashion Island in Newport Beach or cruising around Fashion Valley in San Diego. A pleasant open-air breathable mall! It's your glamorous mall to say the least. You can probably find whatever it is you're looking for here. Everything from A to Z. Lavish designer things to Old Navy lol. What I didn't expect was seeing our US post office and a small shop selling stones and crystals. Loved Lupicia for teas, and the ukulele, and Yeti store as well! Don't get me wrong, I dig here, but mainly because of the walking aspect of it all. And the little koi ponds. I also noticed the place was pet friendly, another plus in my book. As others have mentioned, this mall is really really ginormous. I mean, you can walk around and window shop for hours on in. Or you can walk from floor to floor to get your stairs and steps in. It took us a few hours to get through the whole place, but we did it. You can even chill at the food court, and just people watch the herds of cattle waiting in line. If anything, the food court was definitely the busiest area. In a nutshell, this place already has a name for itself over the years, so I'm just gonna give three stars. It's lovely here, but I'm not gonna say I love it here. Besides, my review is just a drop in the bucket.

Every too I'm in Oahu this mall is a MUST to go to. I love how spacious and beautiful it is. I could wander around for hours just looking at everything. Expect lots of madness in the parking garage as this place gets very very busy. I was lucky enough to find parking immediately on the second floor about 45 min after the mall had opened. There are so many different stores to choose from, though a lot of them are very high end and expensive. I love the food court as well, as they have a decent variety of foods to choose from.

A beautiful day for shopping and there is ample parking everywhere! Five stars for covered parking! (I did pass on any attempt of Black Friday excitement;)!) I'm sure I'll still find great gifts (maybe some at bargain prices) nonetheless!

It's Yuge! [Honolulu HI] We stayed at the Ala Moana Hotel Mantra which has a connecting bridge to the mall via Macy's. We had to go through the parking lot but didn't have to walk on the street which was nice. We looked for food... it was our first evening in Oʻahu and the 3-hr time difference had our eating schedule off. We ended up at the LANAI Food Hall inside Ala Moana on the side of Mall Level 2. After dinner we walked around until the mall closed. We found ourselves at an ABC Store on the street level near Centerstage. Unfortunately, we were not able to return for another visit because we were out and about during their business hours which was from 10:00a to 8:00p. Total mall time during our vacay: 1 hour and 15 mins. I am not a mall person but the Ala Moana Center is worth visiting. The last time I visited this mall was when I lived in Oʻahu during the late 70's... as a teen the mall to me was already huge... this last visit Ala Moana became even more YUGE! Review #3589

The Ala Moana Center is an outdoor mall that has a great selection of stores, with a great mix-in of high-end designers! You'll be bound to find something if you're looking to purchase, as they have such a good variety. The place is beautifully arranged, and there are also restaurants, cafes, as well as vendors/stand throughout. Plenty of parking in the large garage as well. +great selection of high-end designer stores +outdoor mall +plenty of parking

This shopping center is a MUST if you are visiting in the area and need a good place to eat, chill, or walk around at. They have a food court inside with many options including all different cuisines so everyone can find something they enjoy. Also there are an abundance of stores ranging from more affordable items to luxary, The mall is kept very clean and tidy with many plants along the middle aisle. Also the parking is easy to navigate and there is plenty! I really have no complaints, only a suggestion. Since most of the mall is outdoor with a small covering over it, suggest bringing an umbrella if there is rain in the forecast! Highly recommend!

Ala Moana Center is such a beautiful open air mall that it makes malls in the mainland blush in envy, what a beautiful mall! And we are talking massive here, at least a few blocks in size. A labyrinth of ground parking could easily make a visitor lost trying to find the closest spot to your destination. To tell you the truth, I think we barely scratched the surface as far as checking out the whole of Ala Moana Center. We came here for some snacks at CVS, ramen for dinner, and some boba. Now I see why a lot of social venues happen here at Ala Moana; its just such a beautiful mall.

Yelp
Is it just me? Every time I visit Ala Moana Center one or more escalators are closed for major repairs. And did they do away with security guards? If not then management needs to walk around because you never see one patrolling the grounds. That raises a major concern especially with what's been happening at Pearlridge and Windward Mall.

Haven't been here in a while, but this is the second or third time I've been here. Last time was this November 2024. Lots of standard mall shops with some luxury shops too, so that diversifies the shop offerings here. The mall directory and location of some shops can be confusing so refer to the directory listings there or use their website to direct yourself to what shop you want to go to.

It is advertised as being the largest indoor/outdoor shopping center in the world with over 350 merchants. First off, the parking situation is HORRENDOUS!! It is incredibly popular, so finding a space can be trying. Many of the stores are high end, like Cartier, Nordstrom, Bloomingdale, Neiman Marcus, Rolex, Hoka, ... Target is the most reasonable. The food court has probably close to 30 choices of different cuisine. It's a good time waster.

As a local and an employee of the mall, I have witnessed this mall undergo many phases over the years. I say this with deepest concern when I note that this mall needs some major improvements. Examples of issues consist of but are not limited to numerous escalators that are consistently broken or malfunctioning, Filthy and vandalized areas around the mall such as restrooms, elevators, and most concerningly foodcourt eating areas, and lack of presence of security and custodial personnel. The overall mall experience is still excellent and the mall I still know and love but I feel that if these issues are fixed ASAP, it will improve the experience for visitors both locally and abroad.

Took a short trip to Oahu last weekend and enjoy our stay at Ala Moana hotel. Of course had to check out Ala Moana for shopping and eating too!. We enjoyed all the shopping and enjoyed the food court too. Even enjoyed ourselves having a few drinks with good live music. Server was really friendly and came around many time checking on us even though it was a very busy night. This was at Mai Tai's on a Saturday night , Mahalo Mai Tai's for having great servers and bar tenders too. Gotta say a bit Mahalo to the cooks who prepared our Ono Pupu's!

I really like this place. Outdoor with plenty of sunlight but shaded areas, covered in case of rain. Fresh breeze but also blast of cool air as you walk by the boutiques. What a combination. Parking can be tricky. But can always find space somewhere.

Everything is in this mall. There's Nordstroms, Crocs, Macy's, Neiman Marcus, Louis Vuitton, Gap, Anthropolog, L'occitane & CVS/Longs. Food Land and Target. Dim sum, restaurants with pork, coffee, Lahaina Fried chicken, Pho, and so much more. Some of the stores are small but they're clean. Great place to shop! They have a Barnes & Noble with the biggest selection of cookbooks. Most stores have nice salespeople and good service. The value is great if you are from the mainland due to the 4.5% tax vs 9.25%. I make a point to spend at least one day here.

Shopping: 5-Very good. I always find what I'm looking for whether it's for a gift, groceries or special occasions. Great selection of stores. Mall: 4-Very nice open air, koi fish, local music playing throughout the mall level. Cleanliness: 1-Needs pressure washing especially in the parking lot. Urine, feces, trash cans full. Do not sit on those nice benches outside of Tory Burch. Needs cleaning, DNA all over there. Access: 1-There is always at least 2 main escalators that are not working-always. Locals know to use the instore escalators to get around. Sad for those that are mobility challenged. Management: 0- I witnessed a female identifying herself as management pulling off signage and speaking loudly to a tenant store employee. Unprofessional.

Ala Moana Hawaii's Center is the largest outdoor shopping mall in Honolulu, Hawaii. This shopping mall has 350+ stores and restaurants with four levels. A great selection of stores that include some upscale shops, boutiques, department stores, Makai Market food court, a grocery store the Foodland Farms, Longs Drugstore, Target, salon/spas, professional services and the list goes on and on. Beautiful landscape all around and nice art pieces located around the shopping mall. It surely has increased in size since back when I last visited in early 2000's. Great for shopping, eating and for getting your steps in!

Whoa! So I haven't been here in a while. I think the last time we came here was last year and it wasn't this developed. Meaning, the shops they have NOW was NOT HERE or opened yet. Anywho, this place is HUGE! It ridiculously HUGE! I remember knowing that Ala Moana Shipping Center was either the worlds or the states largest OUTDOOR MALL. Meaning, having a mall that is open without being enclosed. I thought THAT was pretty cool to know then. But NOW, the shops are even extended into where the parking garage is. I mean, it's like it's an extension of little shops on the parking garage area. I thought that was cool. It's just too bad this place doesn't run down by the waterfront.m or on the beach walk. It's close to the beach park, but it's NOT actually on the ocean floor. It's more inland. Anywho, they have pretty much every shop you could think of. I don't think someone would be able to shop here all in one day. Back in the 90's, we were able to walk from one wing and work our way to the other sides. It took us almost the whole day. Now, with all the shops and extentions, I'm saying it'll take someone all day & night to get through this whole complex. I'd suggest shopping here if you know ow what you need from here. Otherwise, good luck!

Way too crowded. What was once a pleasant, open aired shopping center is now almost fully enclosed. Once two floors, now three. Even little store areas where once you could walk.

They have EVERYTHING HERE. From high end couture to grocery shopping, it's here. Be sure to plan out your trip through the mall. You will get tired easily as there are several floors and wings. Park with caution on the restaurant side by Mai Tais, the lanes are painted crooked.

Ala Moana Cemter (AMC) is the largest open-air shopping center in the world with 2.4 million-square-feet of retail space. It used to be anchored with stores like Sears, Shirokiya when they first opened on August 13, 1959. The locally owned Slipper House is still there but at a new location. Back then, it was the largest Shopping Center in U.S. I missed the stores & food places that used to be at AMC like Liberty House, JC Penneys, Woolworth, Ritz store, Lynn's Deli, & I believe Little Sicili's pizza. There are many high end and specialty stores with many restaurants today. The AMC just celebrated their 64 year anniversary this year 08/13/23! There are ample free parking, but just need read signs for one hour parking stalls and tow away areas between the late hours. If you park to go off premises, there are signs to scan to pay for parking at Ala Moana Center. Ala Moana Center gift card can be used at the stores at AMC or places that accept American Express. Just heard that Genki Sushi accepts just their own gift card and Apple just did a system change and accepts payment with a chip card. The card I purchased on 9/14/23 expires in 1932. After expiration, you can call the American Express number in back of the card to have the balance transfered to another card. There are purchase fee for the gift card since it works like any American Express gift card. $3 for card value of $30-49.99. $3.95 for card value of $50-99.99 & $5 for card value of $100-$250. I can save about a dollar in fees if I make the gift card $49.99 instead $50.00. lol Ala Moana Center is a great place to meet friends and family for a meal or to find a gift for others and yourself.

Service and selection of stores/items within the Ala Moana Center were great! The value is based on the stores within the center. Lots of high-end stores located here. As a tourist to the area, it was nice having so many options close to our hotel. It was also decorated nicely for the holidays to give a festive vibe while shopping. It is an open air shopping experience, which was perfect while visiting Honolulu. Not sure about parking, as we had to taxi and Uber everywhere. It was a close walk from our hotel, so that was also a plus.

Five stars for hosting this epic event that honors Hawaii Sports Officials for their commitment and dedication to Hawaii youth sports! The chicken dinner was very tasty and chocolate cake moist and satisfying. The coffee had that delicious Hawaiian fresh brewed taste! Meeting room and large screen made the program very entertaining. I appreciate this great honor as the Hawaii Wrestling Official of the year! Mahalo to all my fellow sports Officials for their dedication towards excellence in Hawaii youth sports! Pin to win!

Awesome place to get your shopping/entertainment/dining done all in one place...can't say enough about it! However...the mall music sucks! Sorry, but it does! Not everyone wants to hear reggae all the time. Our shopping experience could be better if you replaced your background soundtrack to something more neutral, something that everyone both young and old can enjoy...
