Wasn't sure what to order and the friendly server gave awesome suggestions. The butterfish is the best thing I have ate in 4 weeks on this island. The mango habanero wings are just right. Also enjoyed the clams and the bartender was excellent as well, great old fashioned! Highly recommend, also they had live music, not too loud and great selection of songs!

It is crazy to think that a restaurant in/next to a grocery store could be this good, but it was top notch! Foodland is always our go-to store when we land in Hawai'i and need a quick fix of supermarket poke, but our concierge recommended Mahi 'ai Table as a dinner spot also. It was one of the best meals of our trip. Patrick, our server, was super friendly and enthusiastic. The manager was attentive all night and we loved the live music. It was a unique experience for sure. The food shined and the drinks were pretty awesome too. All the food is sourced locally and you could taste the island's freshest bounty. The flavors were classic Hawaii, but elevated and inventive. Please do not think that a restaurant attached to Foodland is a bad thing. It is a great thing and represents all we love about Hawai'i. Please do go and Mahalo to whoever invented this concept.

Hands down my favorite restaurant in Kapolei! The food is always delicious, the staff is friendly, and the atmosphere is great. I love that they have live music every night and that they use fresh, local ingredients — it really makes a difference! My go-tos are the Half Pound House Burger and Fries, Spicy Garlic Noodles, and the Confit Chicken. Honestly, I think I’ve tried just about everything on the menu and have never been disappointed — you really can’t go wrong with anything here. We’ve celebrated countless birthdays, anniversaries, and special occasions with our ‘ohana here — from lunch dates with my bestie to dinner with friends. I highly recommend this spot! And yes… it’s inside Foodland Farms, lol!

Very happy we made it to the breakfast time. Its website said up to 9am. Actually they serve breakfast menu until 10:30am or so. Every servers are nice and friendly. Just don’t know why they save so many tables from letting people sit too close to each table 😂

Dinner for two. Hostess was friendly, as was our server and other staff - 3* for service was because we only saw our server three times in the hour+ we were there - and not at our table, but out on the floor? All this to say the friendliness was not enough to overcome the average service. Food was great though, and the ambiance above average, especially considering the restaurant is in a grocery store. We likely go back and comfortable recommending it as a place for a nice meal in Kapolei, where solid choices are limited. Also a shoutout for the local live music, the duo there our night were great! Edit: subsequently been back a couple of times and the service has been great and the food even better - their misoyaki butterfish is to die for! And also a special shout out for their Korean ribs!

Scallion flat bread was subtle and delicious. We got the crispy chicken confit and it was so tender, the chicken skin was glazed with delicious sauce. The fresh catch was so juicy and cooked perfectly, seasoned very well. Veggies came in crunchy, pleasant texture. Everything is so well priced and came in great portions. We went here for dinner on a Friday and there was lovely live music. Service was quick and everyone was so friendly. Lots of free parking! They take cards for payment. No outdoor area. Reservation is needed as it gets crowded during peak hours.

I ordered kids fish and French fries to go. The fish was cooked to oblivion looking 10 secs from burnt. All the fries except maybe 5 were black! They obviously are using OLD oil. I didnt open it til I got home, it went straight to the trash. It was $12! I will never be back or recommend

Food delicious. Prices comparable. I look forward to the innovative specials of the day. This trip there was only one but didn't sound as interesting as other times. That's OK, regular item menus solid. I enjoyed my half pound house burger, a little too much. I should have had leftovers. Lol. Other table mates enjoyed the fish and chips, karaage nori, and chicken one other the locomoco. Table was pretty silent ! No room for dessert until a few hours later when we stopped for shave ice up the street. Hope to make it back when they have live music. Parking plentiful in the Ka Makani Ali'i shopping mall.

I love that this restaurant is conveniently close to home--it makes it an easy go-to spot. The food is great! The dynamite sauce and crispy chicken were exactly what I hoped for--flavorful and satisfying. Always a solid choice when I'm craving something tasty nearby. Oh yea the kulolo dessert is a must!

The food is fine. But I am never paying $28 again for fish and chips. I get the prices have gone up for restaurants, but at some point it's just not making any sense to go out to eat. It inspired me to learn how to make it at home. Which is good. But these prices are insane.

Wow! What a difference from the 1st time we came here. We went to breakfast on a Saturday morning around 7:15 am. We were the only people there. The service was helpful, friendly and prompt. We ordered the Avocado Toast, Toasted Local Corn Bread and the Braised Short Rib Loco Moco to share. Thank goodness we did. The serving was huge! The toast could have been a meal in itself and the corn bread was crispy and warm with lilikoi butter- yum. But the loco moco was really the star of the show. The meat was flavorful and tender with a rich and decadent gravy with crispy garlic rice and perfectly cooked over easy eggs. Even though we shared, it we could not finish it :). It was so good, we decided to try Pau Hana the following Thursday. We sat at the bar and our bartender - Emma - was so helpful and knowledgeable. We ordered the Hapa Poke (my favorite), the Ali'i Mushroom Pizza and Soy Glazed Habanero Wings (both were good). We followed that up with The Shrimp and Pork Dumplings and Fish Tacos and they were both excellent. My husband had a draft beer and I had the Ube Spritz (delicious!). Live music started at 5 pm and the vibe was so warm, fun and Ohana. Mahi'ai Table is our new favorite place. We are going tonight. If you live on the West Side or are at Ka Makana Ali'i, do yourself a favor and stop by.

I've been here many times but for some reason it wasn't that good. My burger took 20 minutes to come, then my bottom bun was soggy & mushrooms was bitter, so I just ate the top bun & patty. My friend ordered the pizza which looked pale in color but was still good. My fries came in bits & pieces like leftover from the bottom of the frier & a bit oily my friend must've liked it because he ate it all. We ordered dessert but after over 10 minutes we cancelled it, even tho the waitress told us it was sitting on the counter she just was busy to give it to us. Kitchen failed & waitress failed. Waitress was nice but she failed in bringing our food in a timely manner. I wouldn't have tipped but my friend tipped her maybe because he ate most of my food.

Not usually my go to cuisine type, but the food was pretty amazing. Service was on point too. You'll forget you're in a supermarket. Everything was very flavorful. Only critique, if you don't like wasabi stay away from the Asian style salad. It is not subtle at all.

We had a great dining experience at Mahiai Table! We went in on a Tuesday around 1pm, it wasn't too busy, we were seated quickly and the food came out timely. We started with the lechon-style Brussels sprouts. The Patis vinaigrette is savory, slightly tangy, and it complements the onions and tomatoes so well. Even someone who normally avoids Brussels sprouts would be surprised how good it taste after one bite. Next up was the Ali'i mushroom pizza. The mushrooms were hearty and flavorful, and the touch of lemon rind added a bright, citrusy note that balanced the richness perfectly. Definitely not your average mushroom pizza. We also had the fish tacos. The fish was well-seasoned with a delicious smoky flavor. We really appreciate that they used lime slices to help the tacos keep its shape...it was a functional and flavor enhancing garnish! We also really appreciated how kind our server was. She was attentive and when we asked for boxes for our leftovers, she brought us boxes, a bag, and even put our drink refills into a to-go cup. We'll definitely be back again!

Today was my second visit here. Truthfully, at least for me, when you're eating at a restaurant in a super market the make or break it factor was dining with wonderful eating companions. Peter booked a 11:30 a.m. reservation for the three of us. For a Friday there were many available seating and when asked, we chose a booth. Peter so generously ordered appetizers for us to share. Out of the scallion bread(crispy with a tiny kick) and the steamed won tons whose topping and sauce looked like it might be spicy had a soft texture with a unique delicious flavor. Our plate came with five pieces of won tun. The kim chee Reuben was missing the pipikaula and was graciously removed from the tab. My nori chicken had an essence of fish, the elote was a bit tart. The garlic rice was good and enjoyable. The appetizers saved me. The fun conversation covering many varied topics during our time there for lunch was both entertaining and interesting. Loved the sharing of pictures and knowledge about our trips, families, growing up, pets and more. Thankyou so much for lunch Peter, truly enjoyed the pleasure of your company and Terry's too! Arigato for the goodies, I'm excited to enjoy all of them from you both.

Mahiai Table is located in Foodland in Kamakana Alii. We were there for my Aunt's 91st birthday, who didn't show up as she had other plans. So my sister, cousin and I enjoyed her birthday dinner and visited her after dinner reservations. We made it in time for happy hour. The shrimp and pork wonton was really good most especially because of the sauce which we used to dip our scallion bread in. And we shared the anykine crunch salad that we also enjoyed. My sister enjoyed her misoyaki butterfish. My cousin also enjoyed her braised pork. While I ordered the fish tacos which was really filling after eating the apps and salad. However, we still had room for dessert. The Kona coffee mud pie is ice cream that, initially, was rock solid. But it was really good on a warm humid day. Mahiai is a really nice looking restaurant for one that is located in a super market. They have music every night and so it really is a nice added touch while dining. And the staff was great too.

We celebrated our anniversary here with our girls. We made reservations ahead of time. They seated us as soon as we arrived. They had live entertainment. The singer played the guitar and sang beautifully. The ambiance was nice not loud. Casual attire. The waitress was very friendly and attentive to our needs. The food was absolutely "Ono", and service was fast. Everyone there had great customer service. Definitely coming back here again. Definitely one of the best places to go to.

A place to try, we came during happy hour on a Friday. It wasn't as busy as I thought so we were served in a timely matter. Food was good but not anything I would be craving to come back for. I got the poke but was let down and expected more flavor. The poke they sell outside is better. The clam soup was the star of the show, tasted so Ono. I also loved their fish tacos!! Happy hour is half the original size and half the price, so if you want a bigger portion just order the regular size but just be prepared to pay full price. A very nice place to talk story and catch up while having live music playing.

Portuguese Bean Soup; The veggies are thoroughly cooked and soft. Little meat in the soup but I did enjoyed it. Brussel sprouts was enjoyed by the hubs, I personally wouldn't order it again but the lechon aspect has a nice smokey flavorl Seared fish tasted fresh, would def try their other catch. Genuinely enjoyed my choice Charred Pork Belly Adobo. The pinakbet was very appetizing. Would order again!

Our favorite diner type restaurant in Kapolei. Great food, excellent service, and a relaxed atmosphere. We ordered our favorites and added on a new item. Scallion Bread and Korean Sticky Ribs are our favorites. Tonight we tried the Crispy Pork Belly Adobo. It was delicious . Nice Live music to go along with great food and company.

I had dinner at Mahi'ai Table last Tuesday and enjoyed the experience. I ordered the mahi-mahi with local vegetables and coconut rice. My friend got the pork plate and said it was tender and flavorful. The service was good overall, although it took a little longer than expected to receive our food - approximately 20 minutes. The restaurant has a casual but nice atmosphere. They have some local artwork on the walls and Hawaiian music playing softly in the background. The prices were reasonable for Hawaii - we spent about $35 each, including drinks. That's fair, considering the quality of the food and the fact that they're using local ingredients. My only complaint was that the dining room became quite loud when it filled up, making conversations difficult. But I'd go back. It's nice to find a place that celebrates local Hawaiian food without being too touristy.

I've been to Mahi'ai Table many times before and have always had a great experience with awesome food. Today was no different, and it was the first time my friend wanted to come here for her birthday. We had reservations for 11:00 am, which was easily made on open table. We were seated promptly and given a booth, which was requested when reservations were made. There were not many people in the restaurant at that time, but within an hour many tables began filling up. Chuck was our waiter/ bartender. He was very attentive and serviced our table very well. Our pickled mango margarita was made very well and he gave my other friend an assortment of tea with her hot water. All our pupu dishes came out fast. We didn't realize how big the dishes were and had lots of left over to take home. We all enjoyed the fries with a side of roasted garlic aioli sauce. The fish from the fish and chips was a good size. The outside was nice and crispy and the fish was moist and flavorful with a squeeze of lemon and tartar sauce. The spicy garlic noodle had a nice little kick but not too over powering. The dessert was my favorite, as it had the kulolo and haupia ice cream. The brittle was an added little bonus. The mango compote on it didn't really match the dessert so we just pushed it to the side. Everything was very good and I will definitely be back!!

Great location , substantial ambiance and smashing customer service! However.... Two stars for the reason that some items were extremely dry. We ordered the Spicy Garlic noodles and added chicken , the chicken had zero seasoning and was as if it was pre-cooked and microwaved. Also ordered Mochiko Crusted Ahi Belly with Garlic rice. The garlic rice was dry and hard close to uncooked rice grains. Also the Ahi belly was just deep fried and NO mochiko crust. Everything else was good, just very disappointed in the SHORT CUTS taken in the mentioned items.

Disclaimer, It's my first time coming here. Everyone at our table enjoyed their food and I've been hearing great reviews about this place so I was excited to try it out! I ate the spicy garlic noodles and shared the lechon style Brussels sprouts. I don't even like Brussels sprouts much, but this one was pretty addicting and enjoyable. The noodles were flavorful and I'm glad my egg was cooked right and jellish!! It was perfect!!! My friend ordered the spicy garlic noodles as well but I did notice that she had less specks of spice than mine, but we were both very happy with the level of spice! Our server was friendly and attentive! Place is clean and modern! Had a great first experience here! Since it's located in the Foodland at Kamakana Ali'i it was a given we'd shop around after and get a few steps after eating. The only thing I'd say is it's a bit pricey, but I'm glad I tried this place and would happily return again.

Grocery shopping and eating in the same place!? Yes, please! This restaurant is located inside of Foodland at Ka Makana Ali'i. We actually came here for Restaurant Week where they had a 3 course meal for $32/person! Here's what we got: I opted for the Chicken & Shrimp Dumplings for the first course while my friend got the Brussel Sprouts. The dumplings came with a mustard & garlic chili crunch sauce. The dumplings were good and the sauce was tangy/spicy. The brussel sprouts were very flavorful and came with cherry tomatoes & onion. We liked the brussel sprouts more than the dumplings. For our main entrees I picked the braised short rib and my friend chose the fresh catch. Both dishes lacked flavor. The short rib was dry and the fish was plain. My short came with rice in a sauce with bell peppers. The rice had all the flavor. The waiter didn't even let us know what the fresh catch was for the day so we didn't know what we were eating. Lastly, for dessert we got the Kulolo Haupia Sundae and the Lilikoi Creme Brûlée. The sundae was good I love kulolo with haupia. There was also chunks of mango and peanut brittle. I did not like the brittle as it almost broke my tooth because I didn't see it. The Lilikoi Creme Brûlée was good! Very creamy with the crunchy top. The downfall of this restaurant was the slowwww service. We waited almost 30 minutes for our food to come out and that was just for the appetizers. We had to wait even longer for the main entrees to come out. Our hubbies opted to not get the Restaurant Week menu so they had to wait even longer for their food. They both opted for the same 1/2lb burger. They loved that it came with all the fixings and fresh fries! However, the waited asked how they wanted their burgers done and my hubby said medium but it came out very well done, almost burnt. Overall, the ambiance was nice. There was live music playing and thankfully being in Foodland, I was able to keep my 2 year old occupied for the 30+ minutes while we waited for our food by walking her around. However, with subpar food and service, I'm not sure I would return.

It's almost embarrassing that we only now have eaten here in person. We shop at Foodland farms quite often and walk past this restaurant in the store each time. I always marvel at the menu and the glutton in me cries every time I walk away as I usually have something to buy and need to get home We finally made it a destination. Tried out their half bound burger and the spicy garlic noodles and are hoooooooked! The service was great as the wait staff and the manager came by to check on us. We drooled over the food at each table and the food we ordered was cooked to perfection I especially loved the garlic noodles. They had a nice chew to them and the spice was not that hot but accentuated the overall saltiness and garlicky wonder of it all. Will be back and trying other items on their menu Plus the garlic noodles again

We came here for da killah grindz and they had LIVE MUSIC as well. Great Happy Hour Deals, too. We had the Alicia Mushroom Pizza, Fish Tacos, Soy-Glazed Mango Habanero Wings, and the Hand Cut Fries. All was DELICIOUS! Service was OUTSTANDING. Thank you, Rylee.

My bestie and I decided that this weekend was perfect for a double date night. It was restaurant week and Mahi'ai Table was looking delicious! Especially dessert! We made reservations the day before for 5:00 pm. We were seated immediately and there was live music playing (Johnny). He was really great, but it was loud. It was difficult to talk to the people on your table. Service started off slow and ended slow. I'm not sure if they were short on the back end and the front end, but the food took forever. We were there for about 2 hours. When the food finally came out, it was disappointing. Lechon style Brussels: this was good, but the pipikaula on top was spicy. Shrimp and pork won tons: lacks flavor, not even salt. The filling is just mush with no texture. Fresh catch: lacked flavor. Braised short ribs: dry and lacked flavor. Lilikoi creme brûlée: good, but tart. Kulolo haupia sundae: good, but the kulolo was not soft. The brittle was so hard that it was inedible. Overall, I would not be back by choice. The food was underwhelming.

Finally tried this place out and it was for a restaurant week! Off their $32 prix fixe menu we got the... Lechon style Brussels and steamed shrimp and pork wontons for appetizers. Crispy confit chicken and braised short rib for the entrée. We had to substitute plain white rice for the Hamakua Farms aliʻi mushroom congee, hon shimeji mushrooms under the braised short rib. Kulolo Haupia Sundae and Lilikoi crème brûlée for dessert. The only thing that bothered me was how slow we received our dishes. The wait for our dessert felt like forever! Other than that all the food was delicious. Service was good, guys were removing our plates and gave us a to go box. The live music was nice for our diner date.

I'm glad there's another breakfast / brunch spot in kapolei. It is only open for breakfast in the weekend. Not busy and was sat right away. Glad there isn't a wait like the other breakfast spots in kapolei. You can also reserve a table for breakfast which is a plus. The menu has everything. The food was amazing! Kimchee fried rice was delicious and filling. The ube mochi pancake was sooo good. Definitely gonna order that every time I eat breakfast here. Just all around great breakfast spot.

Today we decided to get dinner here because we had no idea where to go. Surprisingly there was a prefixed menu for us that was part of the restaurant week. The server (Scott I think), was super friendly and explained to us what it was. The prices were reasonable for the big entree plates. It was $32 per person, and it was definitely worth it. Everything was amazing but the wontons & the Brussels were a standout for us. The braised short ribs were also so good. Love the live band as well. The restaurant is Located in the FoodLand farms grocery store, near the mall, so make sure to keep that in mind when looking for parking.

Such a fun spot for Friday pau hauna! Farm to table kind of place, which focuses more on quality than quantity. We've been here twice, once for pau hana and then regular dinner. Location: Inside Foodland - walk straight in and located on the right side. Plenty of parking! Ambiance: Nicely decorated. Comfortable booth seatings and tables near window. Bar in the back. Front stage area for live music. Food: 4.5/5 Everything tasted delicious! +Fresh Fish Tacos ($8 HH) delicious fresh fried fish, this ended up being my favorite of the 3. +Pizza ($12 HH) good flavor, crispy crust, just unexpectedly small. More personal size pizza, like for a child. +Hapa Poke ($12 HH) this was fresh, bright and delicious! The Ulu Chips were good. + Pulehu Steak Frites ($36) amazing buttery flavor, cooked to med-rare perfection, crispy flavorful fries +Burger ($21) - my partner had this and loved it. Large portion and very filling with extra fries Drinks: 4.5/5 +Shiso Mojito ($10 HH) Good flavor! Not very strong but great value. +Local beers ($6 HH) on draft were good. Hana Koa brewing one was my partner's favorite. Dessert: 5/5 If you only come for one thing make sure to try the mud pie! It was amazing. Definitely for the coffee and chocolate lovers. Each layer was delectable and so IG worthy. +Kona Coffee Mud Pie ($11) Value: the pupus were smaller than expected so I wouldn't go super hungry unless you planned to just snack and get drinks. Adds up quick with the drinks, food, dessert! Service: The employees were super sweet and friendly. Our server recommended the dessert and it was the best mud pie I've ever had! Can't wait to come back!

Cute little restaurant in Foodland farms Kapolei. Perfect for after shopping all day at the the mall, or after work to un-wind, relax, and just have an ice cold glass of cocktails. Live music is a plus, so very welcoming and chill place. Staff was oh so very nice and on point. Seated right away with a smile, love it! The food was oh so flavorful and delicious. You can sit at the bar, or have a booth. Definitely coming back for more relaxing, and chill nights. See you there.

We made a reservation on OpenTable just in case. It was for lunch on a Thursday. The restaurant supports the farm to table concept using locally grown produce. Our server was Ryan. Very unassuming server with a relaxed attitude. The three of us ordered the same meal- the big boy mixed plate. Consisted of prawns, Korean spicy fried chicken, Kalbi ribs, potato salad, two scoops of rice. Plenty of food. Hubby finished his plate but daughter and I took unfinished food to go. It took a bit for our food to come but once it did we all enjoyed it. The restaurant is located inside Foodland Farms. There's live music in the evening but we were there for lunch. Plenty of locals enjoying the food. Every place we went we were asked if we were locals. I'm glad we fit right in.

I had lunch here this afternoon with a friend and the service was excellent! The food was kind of mixed. We started with the Brussels sprouts, which were really tasty. It was slightly charred and served with pipikalua, tomatoes, and sweet onions, and drizzled with some kind of sauce that elevated the whole dish. It could use a little less onion, but otherwise it was very good. For my main I ordered the ahi burger with salad instead of fries. The burger was meh - the ahi burger patty itself tasted like it was ground up leftover spicy poke and it was very dry. The salad, however, was really good! I was originally going back and forth as to whether I should order the Cobb salad or the ahi burger, and I think I chose wrong. My friend ordered the other salad on the menu (the one with cabbage) and really enjoyed it. I will definitely be returning to try the Cobb salad which looked unique. I also had a plantation iced tea which was just the way I like it - sweetened, but not overly so, and the pineapple flavor was there but not overpowering. It was just right.

Went on an impromptu date night with the hubs and it was accidentally Restaurant Week. We got the Prix Fixe menu they offered and it was phenomenal. The food took a long time. Or they just took a long time to take our order.... it was a few months ago lol. I definitely will go again though. I was very impressed with my Chicken Confit. And the dessert was hella good.

This place came up open near me so we decided to try it. Service was quick. Sat immediately, server was very attentive and helped make decisions between items. Drinks-i tried both Ube whiskey sour and Pickled Mango Margarita. I liked the Ube whiskey better. Food- Lechon Style Brussels were flavorful, a little on the saltier side than I like but still nice and crispy . Hapa poke was good. Korean sticky ribs fell off the bone. Steamed shrimp and pork wontons were tasty. We walked in before closing so the live band was packing up. Spacious. Bar seating available. Ordered the kulolo haupia sundae and the chocolate mac cream pie. Kulolo had candied mac nut bark which I didn't recall reading on the menu. It did give it a crunch buy I feel like there was just too much. The kulolo and gelato would have been all I needed :) I did not like the Chocolate mac nut- it was just not my thing.... chocolate pudding is not my fave.

Randomly stumbled on this restaurant. Located inside Foodland farms Kapolei was this hidden gem. It was a random but busy Sunday night. From the outside it looked like the restaurant was fully booked. But with the help of a very kind hostess, she was able to sit us in just 10 min. There was a band playing awesome local music, which was an added plus. Our server was above/beyond helpful and knowledgeable of the menu, which made our dinner enjoyable. Food was on point, delicious, chefs kiss !! This restaurant was perfect. Mahalo

We want to thank Mahi'ai Table for a great evening, we celebrated our Jordan's Birthday with ONOLICIOUS food, awesome servers as they worked as a great team especially MSmith! She was the best. We'd also like to thank Manager Christian & Javis for pre ordering and communicating with us to make it all happen. Live entertainment by Danielle Parente, she's so talented and helped along to sing Happy Birthday and sang Bubbly as a special request from our Faith . Our Granddaughter was comfortable, there was lots of space for her and for us to maneuver around our seating area and the servers were so sweet. Our kids had a great time and we totally enjoyed ourselves. Mahalo Mahi'ai Table we'll always come back for more!

This place always hits!!! Literally a hidden gem for date night. Inside of foodland farms has its own restaurant and it doesn't disappoint. We walked in at 7pm on a Sunday night and had live entertainment and amazing staff. We ordered the Brussel sprouts, Clams, and ribs for appetizers. Main course was the Vietnamese Fried chicken and adobo. We loved everything we ordered. No complaints at all everything tasted fresh and seasoned all well. For dessert we had the kulolo and it was so delicious I'm glad we tried it. A must try for a nice night out in Kapolei.

Me and the miss wanted a quick bite with some drinks and found the perfect solution! We ordered the shiso Mojito & the West Side mule. Both drinks were really refreshing & delicious! for small plates we had the hapa poke & fish tacos. Both portions were small but sharable enough for two people. Server and hostess were really nice and live music was the perfect touch! Will come back soon :)

Decided to finally try this place since it's always busy--and it did not disappoint! The staff were friendly, and the service was fast. Our food came out quickly, and everything we ordered was delicious. We tried the braised short ribs loco moco, mochiko-crusted ahi belly plate, spicy garlic noodles, and the steamed shrimp and pork wontons. All delicious and flavorful. We also ordered the (hot) latte and the strawberry matcha latte, both were great. Highly recommend if you're looking for great food and quick, friendly service! I'm sure we will be back.

Wait! a restaurant in a supermarket? Wait! do they have a bar? Wait! You mean they are located where???? OMG.... and what an OMG it was. Here is my story: SITREP- My friend offers to drive me out to the Westside while our other friend who lives out there will save a table for us at the Mahiai Table. So along comes the day when my own personal Uber comes for me and we head out for lunch. (You know you're in a bit of pinch if you have to "GPS" your way to Kamakani Alii right?) Mahiai Table is located inside Foodland Farms. So, like most of the newer Foodland Farms locations, the footprint is the same, such that the restrooms are in the "back" behind dairy and produce.... Just saying.... We had fish and chips, salad and an ahi burger. The portions are more to the large side. The taste is good. The service is good. Nuff said. Would I go back? I might have to give my personal Uber driver a raise and see if I can get a ride out to the west side again.... Why? Because Mahiai Table was a clean, pleasant place to dine. Hana Hou

Since moving to Hawaii (from San Diego in case you're wondering), I've been a fan of foodland. Been to a few of their restaurants and this one is one of my fav. Food - 5/5 Drinks - 5/5 Service - 5/5 Ambiance - 5/5 We had a few items. Lechon brussel sprouts, ahi belly with garlic rice, salad w/salmon and Keiki fish and chips. All were delicious. Brussel sprouts were crispy and cooked well. Ahi belly was tender as well as the salmon. Their old fashion was right up there with high end restaurants on the island. A big plus IMO is the live music. Ambiance is chill and relaxed. Last but not least, service is awesome. Will come back again next time!

Came here 10:30am when they opened for a Birthday Brunch on a Monday. Host seated us right away and took our drink order. Small plates that were already set on the table were dirty with smudges of oil and left over sauce on the brim. Host initially seated us in the corner as requested, but the cushion for the seats in the booth along the window were torn. I knew it would be uncomfortable so I asked to choose another table. Did not understand why the host would seat us in that spot if the entire restaurant was empty. Hopefully Foodland fixes their upholstery so when the restaurant is full, whoever is to be seated in that booth won't be uncomfortable. The food was ONO ! Ordered ribs, garlic fried rice, Brussels sprouts, mango habanero fried chicken wings, scallion bread and 2 desserts. The 2 desserts were a recommendation from our waiter. Crème brûlée and kulolo with ice cream and dehydrated mango. I was not impressed with the fruit they used to top the kulolo and vanilla ice cream. It was not fresh but rather dehydrated. I feel something tart like local Kula strawberries and or blueberries would be best with the kulolo and vanilla ice cream flavor. I would come back to Mahi'ai table again for the food, but not for the dessert.

Ordered the strawberry guava mochi pancakes and the alii mushroom omelette with potato's. The mochi pancakes were very tasty and the omelette was a standard omelette with mushrooms. Also ordered a strawberry matcha latte, but I couldn't taste too much of the matcha and ended up tasting like strawberry milk (I didn't mind but keep that in mind when ordering :)) We had made reservations but when we got there, they had no available tables only had bar seating available so it kind of felt like the reservation was pointless which is the only reason for 4 stars. It is located in Foodland Farms in Ka Makana and there is a decent amount of space. The staff was very friendly and on top of things, updating us on our order. Overall it's a nice casual brunch place located in Kapolei!

Chose to come here for my bday dinner again with my friends. I'm glad I'm able to book reservations through Open Table. Makes it a little easier. I love the live music! The food was delicious, the service quick and efficient. Our server was very friendly, they usually are! I live not having to drive into town to partake in a great meal. Ample and free parking are pluses.

A cute restaurant located in Foodland, I've always walked past it and ate here and finally found the time to eat there. There was also live music that was lovely. The food was DELICIOUS. For appetizers we got the wontons and the mango habanero wings. They were both really good, definitely recommend getting the wings. For entrees I got the Seared Fresh Catch 9/10, the XO chili sauce was great with the vegetables and fish. But you have to get their butterfish!! Probably one of the best butterfish I've ever had, already planning to go back just for it. We also got the creme brulee for dessert and we thought it was a bit too sweet, but still good. The thing knocking down this review was the service. The staff were friendly but our service was so slowwww. We came in on a Thursday night and it wasn't busy at all. It took our server 15 minutes to greet us and even then, we had to ask somebody to grab our server before that. After she took our order, it took another 10 minutes to get water. I'll try to be understanding since we were a slightly bigger party (6 people) but I don't think it should take 15 minutes to greet a table, especially on a slower night. We saw other groups come in after us and get their appetizers before we even got our waters! The food also took very long to come out, we're hoping it was just an off night.

I honestly didn't know what to expect since this restaurant is in the Foodland Farms but wow was everything so delicious. And the service was excellent as well which always makes a meal so much better. Scallion bread was a great start with the Manila clams. Fish and chips were so crispy without being oily and were seasoned perfect. Spicy garlic noodles had so much flavor without being super spicy. The short rib loco moco was so good that I forgot to take a photo. Was such a great meal, I would definitely eat here again.

Another first for us, but we ended up going there twice as well. First surprise was that Mahiai Table (Farmer's Table) is inside Foodland grocery store. Didn't expect that. The food, service and atmosphere were also great. There is even live music after 5pm (I think). We ordered the short rib Loco Moco, the spicy garlic noodles, the Makai Bowl (amazing), the Crispy Confit chicken, half pound house burger (which according to one in our party, was the best burger he'd ever had), the sticky ribs, and the lechon style Brussels (not pictured). Outstanding food, parking on the premises.

This restaurant is located inside of the Foodland Farms's grocery supermarket to the right if facing the front from the parking lot. I made a reservation for 2 at 8pm and checked in at the front of the restaurant with hostess and was checked in promptly. They were pretty busy for a Sunday night and had live music playing which was amazing. Our server was very nice and we ordered lychee lemonade and the braised short rib loco moco. The lychee lemonade was a bit too sweet but was very refreshing especially after letting the ice melt and squeezing the lemon wedge in it. The braised short rib loco moco was so good! I enjoyed the change from hamburger meat. The short rib was tender and flavorful with the gravy. The eggs were cooked perfectly over easy and the fried onion straw gave a nice touch of flavor and crunch to the dish. Parking is easy to find. We did have a hard time finding the location but it's because Google maps took us to jollibee's. We realized it is past jollibee's and in the next entrance to foodland farms.

I came here specifically to try their Restaurant Week Prix Fixe menu for $32. I ordered the steamed shrimp & pork wonton, crispy confit chicken and the lilikoi crème brûlée. My husband ordered the Pulehu Steak Frites off of the regular menu. The amount of food I received for the price was great and the food was delicious. I was able to share my entree and my dessert with my husband because it was too much food for me. There was live music the whole night which was nice. The servers were really attentive. The only downfall was that the food took FOREVER to come out & I mean every. single. dish. had a ridiculous wait time. We were there for over 2 hours and it was only 2 of us. Even the dessert took at least 20 minutes to come out. Such a bummer because we loved everything else but I don't think we'll be back here for a while unless we have a lot of time to kill.
