Island Manapua Factory Manoa offers a delightful dining experience. The owner is accommodating and friendly, willing to customize orders and go the extra mile to ensure customer satisfaction. The dim sum platter is a highlight, with options available for veggie-lovers. The Bao, filled with roasted pork and Peking duck, is a must-try. The Manapua itself is soft and warm, with a bun-to-meat ratio that could be improved. While the flavor of the filling could be more pronounced, the overall experience is pleasant. Customers often praise the best steamed manapua and char siu chow fun on the island. The food and service are always filled with Aloha, creating a welcoming atmosphere. Many appreciate the affordable prices and recent upgrades to the shop, which keep the old charm alive. Outdoor seating is available, making it a good spot for casual dining and events. The menu also includes brown rice cake, crispy gaugee, and mochi balls, all enjoyed by visitors. Some customers have noticed changes in taste and setup, such as the removal of the aquarium and the new register placement, but overall, the place remains a favorite for its home-style beach food and friendly service.
