Mahana Fresh

THIS RESTAURANT TREATS THEIR EMPLOYEES TERRIBLE! If they get a CASH TIP the restaurant takes it from the employee! Also if they see an employee use their phone they take $10 from their check for every incident. Which is actually highly illegal. Food was decent but companies that don't take care of their employees don't deserve success.

The staff and manager Gail was absolutely fantastic! She was kind, friendly and was knowledgeable in the menu! I couldn’t be happier Mahana Fresh offers gluten-free and vegan options! A++++

We were so hopeful to find a gluten free eatery, so hopeful and grateful, initially...

Extremely concerned as the safety and storage of food at this facility appeared massively inadequate and potentially dangerous for public health. Temps and bins are not seemingly managed well and the food appears stale and exposed to air for long periods of time. The food had a stench to it and after purchasing and visiting this restaurant for the first time ever, sat down and felt extreme unease as far as eating it. Chose health over finances and I did not actually even eat a morsel of the food I purchased. This truly needs a revamp to the place and the food prep, cooking and storage. Mac and cheese with undercooked noodles tossed in a cream and then cold grated cheese tossed on top was super odd and disappointing but mostly unappetizing. But mostly, please seek out fixing the storage of food to a proper system.

Not bad, not exceptional. Right in the middle. It's good if you need a quick bite. It won't blow your socks off, but it will fill your stomach.

Mahana Fresh in North Carolina is an absolute gem! The food is incredibly fresh, and I love that you can customize your bowl with a variety of delicious ingredients. The veggies are crisp, the proteins are perfectly cooked, and the sauces add a burst of flavor without overpowering the dish. It’s a great healthy option that doesn’t sacrifice taste.

The staff is super friendly and helpful, always ready to make recommendations or explain the menu. The restaurant is clean, bright, and has a welcoming vibe. Whether you’re dining in or grabbing something to go, the experience is always fantastic. Highly recommend Mahana Fresh for anyone looking for a fresh, nutritious meal with tons of flavor!

The staff were very friendly and helpful! I usually enjoy dining at Mahana Fresh, but I've had some mixed experiences. Recently, I ordered meals for both my husband and myself, and while the food tasted great, it didn't sit well with us. After eating at home, we both experienced stomach discomfort and had to use the bathroom later that evening.

The food taste good. They do not give enough of it. If I am spending $17.00. I should get a decent amount. They weigh all the rice and noodles. If you like noodles or rice, just forget about it .

Wow! I needed a quick bite to eat and was not expecting it to be so good! The tofu didn’t look like anything special, but it was bursting with flavor. I eat tofu pretty much every day and this was some of the best I’ve ever had. The employees were so sweet and helpful. Really great service all around. The restaurant and bathroom were also very clean! I will definitely be back :)

Small portions for the price. Staff was not enthusiastic. Barely looked up at me once. Was not knowledgeable about product , not happy about spending $17 per bowl for not a lot of food.

I think Mahana Fresh should have more than 4.2 stars. This restaurant has delicious food that doesn’t disappoint. They deliver to our office building, and I ordered it for a meeting; Everyone said it was excellent and wanted to know where the food was from. One of my favorite lunch spots!

Worst experience I’ve had in Charlotte area. The cashier wouldn’t accept our gift card, offered us only a $3 discount and the other girl had no idea on what to do. Honestly, everyone working there seemed untrained so we didn’t put up a fuss. We just left.

We contacted the restaurant online and received a refund in lieu of a gift card. I’m glad I didn’t taste a single bite of the food they made. The service and attitude we experienced there only reminds me of rot
