Ohana Gift Outlet — Local services in Honolulu

Similar experiences as the other two 1-star reviewers plus a little extra. As we walked in, one of the two ladies immediately started following us around as is we are going to steal something. We initially thought she wanted to be around just in case we needed help. We did not take notice of it until it became apparent.

The merchandises were overpriced. That is understandable due to the location of the gift shop. What drove me to rate this store a 1-star was that little extra experience I mentioned at the beginning. It all started when I was browsing in the discounted section. I overheard another customer asked the lady in the front if the shirt on display is in the discounted section. The same lady told him “Noooooo. This is $35...” She kept on going on about how much the showcase shirts are not the cheap ones. After hearing that, I remarked “Ohhhh...” as I was also hoping to find one of the shirts on the display as well. The lady who was following me around immediately asked me if I am Korean. Since I didn’t know where she’s going with this, I just shook my head and said no. Then she followed up with: “Japanese?” I felt weird and didn’t respond. Then the lady in the front overheard us and yelled out “Chinese!” with a derogatory tone. The lady responded with an expression of what I would describe as an “Ohhhhh + Ewwwww.” That’s when I realized I was racially profiled the moment I walked in there.

Normally, I am a type of person who can easily stomach bad experiences and I am also not much of a reviewer. Hence, I have not written much negative reviews, if at all. However, my experience with this establishment was so out of the world that I am compelled to share it. I will always remember this experience for as long as I...

this place was just across from my hotel, so after 3 days of driving by I decided to walk over and check it out. so glad i did, I found the cutest 2 piece sun dress, and the woman at the counter was happy to help me ensure it would fit my larger chest size, once I had decided on a color she put it behind the counter for me, and brought a basket for my other shopping. when i was ready to check out the dress pieces had been folded and she as well as the other 2 ladies present were so pleased I had brought a bag and we had a very nice chat about it having been bought at daiso when I arrived. not only do they have multiple styles of sundresses and swim suit covers, but also several other kinds of souvenirs as well. I found a cute baby shirt and a collectors license plate. Would consider this one of the top gift shops i...

The lady in here is so lovely I went in there just looking and I've been back twice so I'm not walking past this shop anymore I ended up with a dress a pair of shorts a sloppy Joe and a jacket so as I said not going back there anymore they've got some lovely stuff in there quite reasonably priced she's magic at her job because she does talk you around talk you into things even if you don't really want them but that being said I did walk away and say no I wasn't going to purchase something but I thought about it and went back the next morning to buy it so after four things I'm staying away from the shop but she's a lovely lady great products reasonably prices definitely...
