Pork Lau Lau 3 the leaf on the outside is edible, soft, not stringy; pork chunks wrapped inside, medium juicy, medium flavorful

I ordered Chicken Adobo with Mac salad. Its different from the Filipino version. It's very salty and soy sauce taste not the same I used to eat back home. Even the Mac doesn't taste like the other Mac I had in the island.

Absolutely superb. And you get a LOT of food for a VERY reasonable price. 20-something dollars fed my partner and me for three full days. The food was absolutely delicious. The staff was friendly, communicative/descriptive (I am a blind patron). Poi Bowl? Perfection on a plate.

The BBQ chicken and kalua cabbage are nasty. 80/20 split on cabbage to meat, and chicken has definitely been sitting out for hours (ordered at peak lunch time 12pm) never ordering here again.

Pretty good for food court fast food. Delicious local food.

It's good the food... quality has went down a bit over the years and the food court is filled with flies... its not this restaurants fault but ala moana really needs to do something about the flies its disgusting

The beef stew is delicious! 😋 also try the curry stew bomb!😋

Portions were generous, which was a nice surprise, but the prices felt a bit high given the food court setting. The service was quick, and we got our meals without much wait. There are plenty of other options around, so it’s easy to compare. The food was okay — not bad, just not memorable. Overall, not a bad stop, but I probably wouldn’t go out of my way to return

the hawaiian food here isn’t the best

I stopped by the Poi Bowl at Ala Moana Mall and ordered the Trip Stew, which turned out to be great. It tasted exactly how my mom used to make it for me.

Located in the food court of Ala Mona center in the basement floor, Great place for local specialities! Portion sizes are MASSIVE for the price. Lomi lomi salmon has a salty dish made with tomatoes and onions, but there was very little salmon. Poi is a bit sour, but that might not be everyone’s taste. Overall, you do get a massive amount of food for the price and you get to try all the local specialties in 1 plate!

Prices have gone up. 14.40 for a mini plate. One choice and rice and Mac salad. Not worth it. Won't be eating there ever. Such a shame on ripping off customers.

We got our food off of DoorDash, I’m a local and I am very picky with my Hawaiian style food. 10/10 with the laulau it’s not just pork it is real laulau with fish in it not too much kalo leaf I love the stem and they had that. Hot and ready to eat! My husband got the loco moco, now it’s his place to go next time we visit. He said it was the best loco moco he had in his life! My son is not a pork eater but loved the Kalua pork and rice. I’m picky with my chicken long rice I would say 8/10 cause it needs more ginger and green onion but it was still soooo good! We got kanak attacks after eating it. The poi just want to add in here is a bit too runny for me but still good. 👍🏻 and the last part the lomi salmon that one was a bit too salty but still 10/10 ! This is true local food and I will be back to try the other plates!!!
