Review for January 2021. Beautiful mall in Honolulu.. Had a great time here. My whole experience in Hawaii was remarkable. Thank you so much for all the hospitality and the great time that I had. But about Ala Moana Center. It is a very huge Shopping Center. It is full of many many stores. Especially the luxury stores. But there's also Food Center. The convenient thing about this Ala Moana Shopping Center is that the bus stops right in front of the Santa. So if you're taking public transportation it is very convenient to get here. Very easy. The people here are super friendly and super nice. Even though I came during the pandemic era. The place was still open. However masks are definitely mandatory in everyone working here does everything in their power to make absolutely sure that everyone is kept safe and socially distance. I really appreciate the effort that they take every day to make sure that everyone is kept safe the employees the workers to staff the customers everyone. We all need to do a part to make sure that we keep everyone safe. As much as possible. The food centers are open. But obviously you cannot eat inside. Everything is take out for now. But soon hopefully, everything will go back to the way it was. This Shopping Center added a good vibe to my vacation in Hawaii. Thank you so much for being open and thank you so much for doing everything you can to make sure that everyone follows the covid protocols
Very pleasant, unique, high-end shopping mall! Multi-level, large, complex with lots of open air common space. Not only is this mall's design and look very unique, but it contains most every high-end retailer one could imagine! Plus, many familiar national brands are present. If you enjoy shopping, this is your paradise! Neiman Marcus, Bloomingdale's and Macy's are the large department store anchors. Many small to medium stores located inside the complex. Undoubtedly, this is the premier shopping center, and certainly the largest, in the state. The complex also includes many restaurants and dining options, including a large food court. My favorite feature is the exquisite Foodland Farm's grocery store, located on the lower level. The center is very popular and, at times, can be quite busy. The mall attracts a diverse customer base, interesting "people watching" location. If you're an avid shopper or just want a diversion from the beach activities, this shopping center will provide an interesting outting for the whole family or anyone shopping alone. Located in the heart of Honolulu, just blocks from the beaches of Waikiki.
Rick's Jerk restaurant in Ala Moana Center has some really delicious Jamaican food! I highly recommend any of these items: the Curry Chicken, the Jerk Chicken, the Cabbage, the Macaroni & Cheese, the Beef Patties and the Rice & Peas. The Curry Chicken is moist and had a mild spiciness to it, that was perfectly balanced by the hint of coconut milk I tasted in the rice & peas. The flavor and aroma of the Jerk chicken will make you want to chew the bone too! LOL. The tenderness of the chicken on the inside and the well-seasoned, crunchiness of the skin on the outside of the chicken is simply Onolicious! The purple cabbage has a mild spiciness and is cooked perfectly. I could eat a whole POT of it! The pictures don't do it justice. The Beef Patties were flaky on the outside and moist and flavourful on the inside. The macaroni and cheese was cheesy and delicious as well. I also tried the Brown Stewed Chicken...not my favorite, but I will definitely go back to try more items on the menu.
I enjoyed seeing all the different stores in the mall... from ultra upscale to deep discount, there is something for everyone. One big suggestion, your food court is a nightmare! Being in a wheelchair, there was only one way to go down into it, but chairs, tables, prams and bags blocked my way to get anything to eat, cause I could not get past everyone sitting. I see this not only as an obstacle to those trying to get to the wide variety of food establishments, but more serious, I see this as a safety issue to everyone. If there was a fire or an active shooter, or even an accident and the paramedics had to come in, this would be a major tragedy in the making! Other than that, which turned out OK, cause I ended up getting on another bus and going to the Hard Rock Cafe, where I had one of the best burgers of my life...so I am not upset about being unable to eat there... just worried that it might not be the best designed food court eating areas.
An amazing open air mall the largest around ! High end to low end a mix for everyone with the trip great restaurants well designed pet friendly kid friendly. it’s by the ocean and within walking distance. while loved ones are shopping you hv time to put. Your feet in the water or just admire the view. Loved the shaved ice cream a local favorite ...I miss it !😋 the surrounding of the mall is very nice it dose however have some dirty parts to avoid and an occosainal crazy disturbed person walking around but they didn’t bother me over all definitely worth the visit. My favorite restaurant are ...one is actually in Nordstrom Rocello something 😋 bubba gump ,Islands. In center court they have live performances very cool .i miss this mall and that shaved ice cream to bad they don’t have in Orange County someone needs to bring it to Ca There a market for it.
One week before Thanksgiving and a wonderful shopping time!! No lines, a few early " blank Friday" sales, and facilities kept pretty clean! Loved the decor already out on display....longs was stocking a ton of Christmas items. ( Had everything I needed except healthier drinks with less sugar!) Actually disgusting cannot get better choices in Quality! Nordstrom was a favorite and they are traditional waiting until after Thanksgiving to put up their amazing Christmas 🎄 decorations. Shout out to wonderful Honolulu Coffee company.... awesome service and one best latte ever!! Go with quality rather than these worldly chain stores. I avoided food court because it was actually busiest place in mall and line for Chick Filet was at least 1/2 football 🏈 field ... Not worth it especially with 2 bags of shopping to lug around.
