Excellent island fare -worth hunting for the somewhat hidden site in Kailua. Food : We chose entrees we liked the last time -like the Katsu chicken and teriyaki beef -they were still delicious. I really appreciate that they don't overwhelm their teriyaki with too much ginger. We also tried some new dishes like their hot chicken and sweet Mochica chicken--those choices were yummy, too. Everyone enjoyed the sides -mashed potatoes, rice, mixed vegetables ( heavy on the carrots) , and mac salad. Portions are substantial-but save room for the best blueberry cheesecake we have found. We gobbled the food up so fast that I forgot to take photos this time. They also offer bento boxes -maybe we will try those next time. Service : We did carry-out-the staff were pleasant and helpful. Facility --We have always done carry-out. Location -It seems a little funny to say that it's on a street behind the Safeway-but your gps will help you find it -it's not a showy place. It's definitely on our list of go-to places for an evening meal after a work day or a vacation day -just simple plate food when you want something to relax and enjoy while watching the sun setting behind Kailua's awesome, massive, beautiful mountains. We will definitely be back for more.

Yum! best place for a mix plate meal where you won't feel super heavy afterwards. everything was freshly made to order with generous portions. I split a miso butterfish bento with another person, it also came with teri chicken AND mochiko chicken (3 proteins!) over a bed of rice. They have a whole glass case display of different salads/noodles/grab and go foods too, I would recommend splitting a hot plate and a salad from the case for 2 people for a balanced meal. We also tried their sweet potato / haupia pie, it was SO good! Call ahead if you can, it can be a wait since they do lots of take out. No where to eat inside but there is a bench outside you can sit at to eat.

Ordered the fried mahimahi plate. It comes with 1 scoop white rice, mac salad which was warm and 5 pieces of panko crusted mahimahi. I understand that it gets busy but thinly sliced mahimahi doesn't take long to cook. Frying it until it is dark brown means overcooked so the flavor consists of crunchy bread coating and not fish. I believe in the deep fryer for 5 minutes or until golden brown would've been preferred.

As always, the food is delicious and the help is welcoming & friendly. The Food Company never fails my expectations! It is delicious!!!

This place is fantastic. If you're in the area, it's a must. If you're not in the area, then make the drive!After reading another reviewer's post, decided to stop in. Got the mochiko tofu as the reviewer suggested (crispy with extra sauce) and kalbi tofu. The mochiko tofu was bomb. I would have taken a picture, but it was gone before I could think to get my phone. The kalbi tofu was also excellent; smoky and well flavored, but next time, I'd also do extra sauce. No worries though because I had the extra mochiko sauce. Mac salad and rice were also on point. We'll be back guarantee.

Aloha! Just ordered the chicken curry mini plate with mac salad and it was great! I had been craving curry for some time and stumbled upon this place by chance. The phone order and service was so friendly and accommodating that I am definitely coming back to explore the rest of their menu. I walked right in, food was ready within 10 minutes and they handed it off with such a pleasurable customer service and smile. Highly recommend this restaurant! Mahalo!

It's been a while since I've eaten at the food company... years aka 5+ years. Got the mochiko chicken and it's just what I remembered, great marinate and taste. Literally put me back in time. Great to know there are still local business like this.

The Food Company has held a special place in my heart ever since it was just a small corner spot. Their Korean Fried Chicken and Mochiko Chicken are so incredible that I make it a point to return to Hawaii just for them. I've shared this love with many, and it's become a tradition. One day, I hope to earn the trust of the family to learn their sauce recipe--because being able to enjoy this meal anytime, anywhere, would truly be a dream come true. Compliments to the Chef and the family for sharing such an unforgettable gift with the world!

Tried it for the first time .Got the soba and a small bento.Fired rice, spam, chicken, katsu.Both were good.Price was a little high.But everyplace is high these days.I would go back again.
