We were seated in a corner table that was very cramped and snug up to the wall that encroached on elbow space. The music and AC were just right. The food accessibility of the serving dishes was very high off the floor and made it quite difficult for my wife and also I noticed many other customers, struggling to reach the food and opening of the food containers. A handicapped customer could not see what dishes were offered and needed help from family members. The temperature of the main dishes were mediocre/barely warm or cold when they should have been served hot. The fish was overcooked and dry and room temperature. The Prime Rib was overcooked. Chicken was cooked perfectly and moist. Broccoli was cooked correctly. Ham and Prime rib was off to the side at the end of the Bar, not noticeable until others in our party mentioned it was there. The clearing of used dinner plates was very slow, noticed that waitress's were standing around and not policing the tables prudently. At the 08:30 a.m. opening, restaurant was not yet ready to open and serve us. Customers entering from the Foodland Supermarket entrance need to be "policed" better to make sure that the items they are bringing into the restaurant are already paid for and they don't sneak out your Piikoi entrance/exit after they have eaten without paying for there merchandise from the Foodland Supermarket.

I had high hopes for this visit. Food was not hot, food levels low/not replenished at the time we went to the line. Service was fine. Flavor of food was good, just not hot enough. Fruit flies on pastries. Juice and coffee was good. Ambiance 10/10. Generously provided mimosa bounce-back coupons. Greeted and thanked as we exited, gentleman was very personable.

What a great experience! Who would have thought a brunch inside a supermarket would be so amazing! The food, drinks, & service was just so good! What a great deal, would definitely recommend & come back again! Mahalo!

We had a really nice, relaxing dinner here. It was a Wednesday and not crowded at all. The selection of really fun, unique cocktails was good and the small plates were very good (we had the chips/popcorn), asparagus and the salmon. It was a fun, quirky place. Our server was exceptional as well.

Awesome secluded Gem for a special brunch! They must've hand-picked the staff as every person in there went above and beyond to make your experience, perfect ! Looking forward to having my 60th birthday party here as this place is a perfect venue for a special occasion! 

Everything was better than expected beside one waitress C. I reserved thru open table 9:45. We arrived there 9:35. She asked us to sit right next to entrance from outside. There r so many tables left until we finished eating. But we sat on the counter n ordered cocktails n eat. Bartender Tom was very kind. Restaurant business, foods is important but service is bad I hesitate go back but we'll go back again.

Good value for the price. Food was very good, all items a cut above other buffets. The prime rib was worth the price of $35, plus all the other items. The clam/smoked meat chowder was chocked full of claims and meat, one of the best chowders Iʻve eaten anywhere. I canʻt believe we only found out about this place when a friend noticed the signage at the entrance to Foodland Market Ala Moana. Why was this place not promoted in Crave and Dining Out, food and restaurant announcements in the daily newspaper? The customer base would have been huge for such a great bargain.

This is definitely a hidden gem and arguably the best brunch in Honolulu. Amazing selection, specialty items, all very high-quality. Great price too. Far better than Duke's which is just a breakfast buffet, not a full brunch buffet. There's a difference! 

I have been wanting to try this place for awhile. It is tucked away in a corner of Foodland Farms. The entrance and vibe almost reminds me of a speakeasy. It is not a big space but it is cozy. The brunch buffet was all laid out on a bar in the middle of the room. Seafood bisque - quite good. Breakfast pastries - not bad. Salmon Benedict - needed to wait for it from kitchen. Brioche French toast - good but slightly soggy. Perhaps, because it's a smaller space, the food does not turnover as quickly and they stay in the warmers for too long. Prime rib - tasty. Dessert was served to us by server. Four bite-sized choices but the server did not seem keen on giving you one of each so we both chose two each. Both quite good. I would go back because of the vibe and coziness and it seems nice for out of town guests, but I do not plan to go regularly.

We had a reservation for 11:00 am. No host/hostess at the podium outside. I opened the door to enter at 11:00but was told to go outside again. It's not efficient enough. Although the food was tasty enough, it was disappointedly cold. It was difficult to flag down a server, obviously short staffed that day. The desserts were postage sized and not worth the wait. It was nice to see a carving station added to the brunch, though.

What a great spot in the middle of an amazing grocery store at the end of an awesome shopping mall. It's just the break I needed after all that walking. The service was great--letting us taste a couple of wines before choosing. We had arrived in the early afternoon and by the time we were leaving, around 3, the place was filling up with locals--always a good sign that we made a good choice!

Perfect place to unwind and relax while others are shopping! Richard Field is an exemplary person and a wine expert (sommelier) enjoy!!!

Loved this quaint, and out of the way eatery nestled in Foodland Ala Moana. It was quiet for a Sunday morning brunch. The menu selection doesn't look like much, but it was actually quite filling with a good mix of sweets and savories.

The food was pretty good except for the chicken that was dry. Perhaps it's because the food had been sitting in the chafing dishes for awhile but the short ribs were excellent. Foodland's et.al restaurant's food was way better!

What a cool concept, grocery shopping , then drinks after, so funny. Love this bar, right dab in the middle of Foodland farms. Menu is just right for appetizer or if your really famished, burger, pasta, charcuterie board. They have one hell of a, French onion soup! So delicious and on point! Small selection of beer, but it's ok, I'm sure you will find something to quench your thirst. More selection on wine. They have mimosa's, love that. Staff is very friendly and accommodating. If you don't mind chilling in the middle of a very busy grocery store, love people watching, this is the place. See you there!
