He Mea'ono Market

Quality Hawaiian food! Can be a little pricey, but they give a lot of food and the taste is on point. Always great customer service and tons of kiuke shirts and gifts to purchase. Parking can get tight when busy, best to call in order and pickup. Overall, best Hawaiian food in Kāne'ōhe! Will keep coming back!

Thank you for contacting me about my winning giveaway back in November 2024. We selected the Kaneohe plate. Squid luau, kalua pig, pork lau lau, chicken long rice, lomi lomi salmon, poi, sweet potato, haupia and pineapple chunks. Everything was ono! There's parking on the side and back of the store. The building is pink and there's a big sign as you you driving up, says Hawaiian food. Can't miss it! The employees are nice and helpful. Mahalo!

Hawaiian cuisine for dinner in Kaneohe, O'ahu, Hawaii...Located on Kaneohe Bay Drive, He Mea'ono Market took the place of Angie's Market. There's a small free parking lot a little past the building. I just parked along the front of the building... since I was doing takeout... even though there are a few tables and chairs outside if you want to dine there.To exit, just go straight back and turn left around the property (make a big loop) to exit out to the main road.Inside, the place has been really renovated! It's clean, bright, and modern! Service is pleasant and efficient! The nice gal explained that the Kailua plate has less starch (no rice nor poi) than the Kaneohe plate. Sold!Everything tasted good - like how it's supposed to taste! Kalia pig, squid Luau, chicken long rice, and laulau were spot on! The only question I had was: where's the salmon in the lomi salmon? But that's minor. I really liked the way the hot foods were separated from the cold foods... because I don't like warm haupia nor warm pineapple! Thank you!The kulolo (taro dessert that's similar to mochi) caught my attention. I think I should return for that!

I bought container of the He Mea'ono brand poi yesterday. Not being familiar with that brand I looked it up. I saw the were located in Kaneohe, and had a restaurant. Today was in the area so I decided to pick a tub of Squid Luau to eat with my leftover poi. Well I ended up buying Kulolo, and Haupia. The squid luau had nice size pieces of squid. A lot more squid than the better known Hawaiian eateries. It had a good taste and texture. I enjoyed it, but a little more coconut milk would make a five star winner forme.. I didn't get to eat the haupia or the kulolo. I was just to full. Enjoy

Today 04/06/2024 is their soft opening after taking over the old Angie's Market here in Kaneohe off Kaneohe Bay Drive.You can't miss the building in their bright purple/green paint like their poi containers.Some got to try their hawaiian food offerings at the open markets. If not here's your chance now Got the 2 choice with squid luau and laulau.Luau was good and how we like it. Not sweet and rich like many other places but still creamy from the coconut milk. Laulau was good for the meat to the luau leave ratio. Little under seasoned but for us it's ok we can add our own chili pepper water and shoyu to taste.Waiting to see what other kind of offerings they'll have in the future.

Second time here anf second time i forgot to take photos of the super ono plates of food! this place does NOT disappoint! the Kaneohe plate has everything-rice, poi, lomi salmon, kalua pig, pork laulau, squid luau, long rice, sweet potato, haupia and pineapple! OMG thats a lotta food!! we buy extra side order of the squid luau coz it's that good! Today, we bought their cheesecake dessert and i dont know who makes it but you MUST run, dont walk and get a slice of cheesecake! The mango one is delicious! The coconut caramel...is decadence at its finest! So happy to have found and tried this place! We will be eating Hawaiian food more often!! And the staff are very friendly and kind! For a tiny place they pack in a lot of things too! Snacks and even tshirts!

Love love love their poi. They also have 'uala (sweet potato) poi that I've only seen in their factory or at the farmers markets. This was such a awesome deal, I got 5 for $30.

Worth the drive from Waikīkī for the best Hawaiian food. I got the plate that had kalua pork, laulau, chicken long rice, lomi lomi, purple potato, poi, haupia & my favorite & the best squid lau. The ladies were so nice & kind! The place is so clean. They have refrigerated items for grab n go. This is such a hidden gem & I'm so glad I came here.

Ordered laulau and squid luau, it was ok I like my laulau with fat in it, this one didn't have any. The squid luau was good not too sweet. Also bought Smoked marlin dip, it was good but kind of salty. The lady working was nice.

What happened? So disappointing! In November 2024 we got two very ono Hawaii plates for $35.60. Today we got one plate for $26.18 and I thought it must be different owners, the food was so different. The laulau and squid luau were the only things that was decent. There was very very little salmon in the lomilomi tomato, and everything else was meh.... could not eat the small pieces of dried up sweet potato. And the poi.....was so watered down you could drink it! I really wouldn't complain about the price if the food was just as good as before. So sorry to complain but when you're looking forward to what you expect to be ono, and you end up paying more, the quality should be at least as good.
