The poke at Malama market is one of our favorites on the island. We've been here a few times only for the poke. The staff are friendly and the service is always quick whenever we've stopped in. We love getting their tako and spicy ahi with extra sauce drizzled on the top and sides of the container. Their poke is made fresh daily and just about melts in your mouth because it's so soft. We've brought it to a few family parties whenever we're in Hawaii and our family always asks where we get it from because it's so good. What I also love is that they pack so much in the containers. We usually order by the pound but when my friend and I came in this past Friday to pick up poke, we decided on getting a poke bowl as well for lunch. We were surprised how heavy our bowls felt once got them. We also decided to order some fried chicken from their hot food selection. We were amazed how crispy and delicious it was. Definitely recommend! We will continue to keep coming back again and again.
Such a nice small and friendly place. Love, love the poke bow! My favorite was the spicy ahi poke with rice and they put this sauce on it, makes it simply mouth watering! The parking is very limited.
Malaga market is the place to go when you want to find Fresh produce on the shelves!! Their deli station is awesome, once I went and they were selling prime rib :) I didn't go for prime rib but because it was there and looked as if it just came out of the oven I had to get it!! I had a positive and friendly experience with Each of the employees I've had to interact with!!
You gotta love cheap, grocery store, high a quality poke. Thats what this is all about. I wish I took a picture but I was starving and the taste was immaculate so I went in I got the spicy ahi and spicy salmon combo. Star was super friendly but a tad bit slow
This market is in a small plaza, right next to a coffee bean and tea leaf. Honestly, only times I've ever been here is for the poke. The poke, in my opinion, is one of the best on the island. I really like the Korean style and I always order it whenever I stop by here. The workers have always been quick with getting my poke and when completing my transaction. It's a smaller grocery store but from what I've seen, there's still a lot of variety in what they carry. And it's always been clean whenever I've gone.
Truly a treasure! Kapolei has a lot of places to buy groceries, but Malama is hands down MY FAVORITE!!! The deli, produce, meat & seafood selections are always so fresh, and their friendly, helpful staff is always there to help you find what you need. Their cooked foods are also yummy, especially the whole chicken they offer. Tasty, indeed! They also have the tastiest, fresh poke! And, my favorite cashier Jeannie is there to ensure my shopping experience is a great one. To those with comments about parking - try to slow down. The parking isn't any different than parking at Safeway, Walmart, Costco or Foodland. In fact, it's actually better at Malama.
Stores really convenient to have and the workers are very kind. It's short by a star because of the people that don't know how to park or know where they need to park! Throw trash in the trash! Not on the ground! Otherwise a great place
My newest favorite place to buy poke. The poke guy knows what he is doing as you can tell he cares about his food. But the fried chicken guy doesn't do a good job as the chicken I bought was too dry but tasty.
Convenience at its finest. They are Always well stocked. Workers are always helpful and friendly. Decent size section of produce. Meat and poultry a little small but good enough for last minute pickups. They have a pretty good selection of Beer and wine. I find what I'm looking for most of the time. Poke is one of the best. They run out fast of the good stuff, especially peak hours, around 2pm-5pm and weekends.
