I do instant card show them with the receipt of what I bought and they won’t take it back except any return for refund it’s a crooked Chinese supermarket. They pretend they don’t understand English and they kicked you out of place with the security guard when you try to return something with the receipt that you bought seems like communist country here.

I visited this place right across the street from the hotel I stayed at. It's sais Hawaiian market, but it looks like a large Chinese market.They had a wide selection of hard liquor beverages, and there was a sizable meat section with signs advertising the sale of live frogs and turtles! (Personally, I wanted to check that out, but it said you had to inquire separately if you wanted to buy them! Perhaps they slaughter them on-site? Wow!) I had read other reviews mentioning frozen armadillo meat, but I didn't see it when I visited.However, near the meat section, there was a pretty strong smell, so if you have a sensitive stomach, it might be best to stay away. In other sections besides the meat corner, they sold a variety of items, including Korean and Japanese products, making it enjoyable to explore. It wasn't your typical American market, but it was definitely an intriguing one.

Not the freshest produce nor the best variety for produce, but some really rare items. I'm not sure I've seen armadillo meat and alligator meat anywhere else in the area. Some really good produce and meat deals! Also just a large space with a large variety of goods

My god do they have everything.Tried my first Durian there! They have a large selection of exotic and tasty fruits and vegetables. Various sorts of meat and fish, organs too! Their lobsters are massive, I'm talking. HUGE! Lovely sweets and decor. Come on by!

I am very saddened by the state in which they keep their fresh water and softshell turtles. I understand that they are being sold for consumption, but the turtles are kept in a small/dry container, alive and stacked on each other with no space to move - which is very inhumane. Very poor treatment of these sweet and innocent creatures.

This place is a hidden little gem. I hesitate to write as it's crowded enough but it's a bit out of the way. I've always passed by this place as I grocery shop at the other markets nearby. Had some time and decided to go in this time as I always notice the parking lot is full every time I drive by. I'm glad a went in.There is an stellar selection of wins and spirits. Particularly whiskey and scotch. I found some rare bottles and grabbed them at about $20 off prices seen elsewhere.The produce selection is fresh and at a great price. This is the place for produce.I will say the meat and Seafood department look very sketchy. Major smells and looks very dirty. I would hesitate to buy meats here.They have good actual bargains on near to expire vegetables. They are stacked in 99 cent bags but actually still look decent quality. I bought a 3.5 lbs bag of ginger for 99 cents.

First time visiting Hawaii Supermarket. We thought it was a average Asian market. All around good prices.

Want to feel like you've left the United States? Then this the place for you. You get free plastic bags with every purchase of groceries. Prices are decent, but definitely a ghetto grocery store.

The alcohol selection is impressive. Good spot to get trending American alcohol since it will sit due to the buyers gravitating toward whiskeys and cognacs.The bathrooms... .... Don't go in them.

Can find almost anything Asian. Not Japanese or Korean food though. Parking is small and always seem packed. Prices are reasonable. Love to get snacks and junk food here.

More southeast Asia goods than an East Asian store. Very good prices for chicken and ox tail compared to 99. Didn't have green onions when I went which I found peculiar. A bit messier than the larger Asian market food chains.

I mean where else would you go to get armadillo meat or 26 different selection of durian and vintage wine?

It’s a good family supermarket especially for Asian food & commodities. Prices are reasonable & services are acceptable.

wide selection of products at a fair price but quite literally the worst parking lot of any market with similar levels of visitors

It was a long drive for us, and we could have found the same items closer to home. Thought with the Hawaii in the name we could find a few things from Hawai'i, mainly luau leaf/taro leaf but none available. No one to ask questions, so we left with some.prawn crackers and bok choi.

Awesome variety of foods and fish market selection. Reminded me of markets I used to frequent in Japan.

It is the only place in my area where I can find my mom’s noni tea. I like the huge selection of ramen noodles from Korea and SE Asia. Also a lot of different kinds of snack (chips and pastries). My mom likes to shop the produce section for hard to find vegetables.

The food is fresh and the place is fine. I liked it. My mom got everything she likes. Just one thing I don't like is the service at the cashier. They can not give the full service to customers. They didn't even say Hello or thank you after paying the money, so at least did they smile at customers?NO, not at all. The coworkers talked each others but mute to customers. I don't know about other cashiers but my cashier name was H** T. I am also a cashier at my place but I had never stopped smiling to my customers because my boss said I needed to treat the customers like a king and queen. I hope I can meet with better cashier next time. Thank you.

Compared to its Korean counterparts in the Asian supermarket genre , the place needs a deep cleaning better yet a complete makeover . Some hard to find Chinese and other Asian goods and foods can be found here . In the front of the store and extensive selection of high grade liquor is sealed in a glass case . They take their security seriously here . The security guards are armed and are always on the lookout , even on their smoking breaks . Everytime I've been here , the place is packed to the bone with rabbid shoppers finding fare for their next meal . The parking situation is absolutely horrendous to put it lightly .

Market is friendly, check out is notably quick. Seafood has limited option, but that's how every Asian supermarket runs. Meat section is fully of choice with meat always looking fresh. Produce is somewhat fresh depends what you are looking to buy. They have large selection of alcohol and wines.

The employees here yell at you when you need help. They also help the Asian community before those of other colors of skin. I had the number and they would not help me, but helped someone who was after me because of the color of my skin. Horrible service here!The guy in the image has horrible service and even tried skipping me again, until someone else told him I was next!

Solid supermarket with a really great seafood section. All the basics, solid Asian food market.

Do not come here if you are not Asian they are so rude and give you dirty looks. Even though we aren’t the same race we are still customers and deserve to be treated with respect not hostility.
