Down to Earth Organic & Natural - Kahului

I've driven by this place so many times but never gave it much notice until my girlfriend said she wanted to stop by and grab some food. I tend to think of natural food stores as somewhat run down places. I was completely wrong this store was immaculately clean from top to bottom. Even the bathrooms are cleaner than most store restrooms. The store is wide open and not cramped which I like. There is also a second floor area for dining which is nice and quiet with plenty of windows to let in natural light and look at the mountains and skyline. The store clerks were very welcoming and answered our questions. I've been to many natural stores where the clerks were very rude and in some cases downright mean. I highly recommend stopping in to this store if you need a healthy bite to eat or some groceries. I'm not likely to shop here often but seeing how well they keep this location going, I would definitely be more open to stopping by on my way home from work and giving it some more tries to see if they have a lot of things I would be interested in. The store was well stocked and everything was easy to see!

Great health food store. We needed a supper after a long day and there was plenty of vegan/vegetarian options that the kids even liked. Liked the fake fish sandwich. Great smoothies too. Would definitely recommend.

Like the other reviewers, I do wish to have something like this locally. They have some cool products!All vegan options! The tofu musubi was yummy! Same with the rice, cheese and bean burrito.Açaí bowl was too sweet due to too much honey on top .

The local workers have a huge smiles as soon as you come in & greet you by your name & genuinely talk & joke with you. They are so helpful & have a very cheerful vibes. I absolutely love the fresh made wrap & their Acai. The choice of products is excellent & very well organized. The view from upstairs is pleasant & it feels like a family home.

Great store full of so many fresh, local, organic, and vegan options. The vegan options at the hot bar are great, and the staff are very friendly.

Absolute delight if you are a vegan. As the name suggests it's truly down to earth store. We had a sumptuous meal. They had a huge spread of food bar with lots of vegan delicacies .

Great variety. Their food bar and deli are terrific too. So Ono for healthy food. Their organic coffee is the best I've had hands down!

Wish this place was local in Colorado for me. The ethics this place stands behind should be in every grocery store. Their hot and cold bar was delicious. Reasonably priced meals compared to the rest of the island. So much Vegan and Vegetarian options. There were so many different brands / food that I have never tried or seen.

Incredible find! Cannot recommend this place enough. Fresh, nutritious, plant based ingredients and delicious foods. Great buffet style food for packing hearty and satisfying meals on the go. While it is a vegetarian store, most items are also vegan. For most foods there are vegan options as well. Reasonable prices and friendly staff.

Really good place for vegetarians and vegans, but insanely expensive. I would come here only if there is no other option around for you.Some of the staff members were very helpful and they accommodated me a sandwich as per my diet (no onion no garlic) and I'm thankful for that.

Great local fruit selection. Carole was incredibly nice and personally cut up some pineapple and watermelon for us when she saw we really wanted some for our road trip. Thanks again!

Amazing selection of healthy and delicious vegan/vegetarian foods. It's smaller than Whole Foods, but there's a better selection of quality items here. This is the only location in Maui where I was able to find vegetarian parmesan. The food bar is great too and not just for a grocery store; their Down To Earth Burger is really good.

This place is just awesome! So much variety in the offered products and food. It's really heaven for vegetarians and vegans, they offer almost everything one could imagine. The buffet bar is amazing with delicious meals and and a diverse offer. If it would be a little less expensive, I'd definitely eat there everyday when I'm on the island! They also offer freshly made burgers and other food at a counter where you can see how they prepare it. I'm overwhelmed by this store - that's what the world needs!

The quality and selection of food here is amazing. You can find something for every cuisine. I got an incredibly flavorful indian spiced macadamia dip from here. 👌 I also ordered a down to earth special burger and it was one of the best Vegetarian burger patty I’ve ever had. Its guilt free yet very tasty food. They are also a lot into sustainability and most of their food packaging was completely compostable.

Everything in this store is delicious! Tons of vegan and healthy grocery items. Deli with a ton of delicious vegan options. Try the signature down to earth burger with a hearty vegan patty made from real whole food unlike fake meats. While everything in Maui is expensive, I got the most for my money at this deli compared to other places I ate. There is also a hot bar with a ton of amazing fresh hot meals. Sadly, you can’t serve yourself due to covid restrictions, but there is a staff member that will scoop items for you.

Cute little grocery store with a bunch of options for many different dietary restrictions...but still delicious quality stuff...also the deli is literally my favorite restaurant of all time and it's just a sandwich counter. Everything is so fresh delicious filling but also light. I love this place so much

Wow! This place is heaven for vegan and vegetarian folks. Fully organic and delicious food options. The buffet was amazing, pick up a box, fill it with assortment of vegan/vegetarian dishes and head to checkout. That simple. You can enjoy your meal out in sun or head up stairs for small seating area.I am definitely coming back to place to grab a bite when I am on the island.

Love the buffet here! Great organic food all around. If you want local produce, this is the place to get it. Their breaded tofu is my absolute favorite, and they make a mean veggie wrap. Come here for your clean living needs!

I visited their deli twice on my trip. The food was delicious both times. I got the falafel wrap and the avocado sandwich - both were incredibly tasty and the staff had no issues with minor customizations. I would highly recommend these items for a cool and fresh meal. My partner got the mediterranean panini and it was good, but not great. We got all items vegan, which was such a nice option to have. We also purchased the vegan banana bread from the grocery area and it was SO good!

This is a great natural foods store. It has fresh local produce, as well as packaged goods and health / beauty products. It is small enough to not get lost in but yet also big enough to have everything you need. The staff is very nice and there is a good selection. I have no complaints about this store. It's a great natural foods mini supermarket.
