Fiafia Restaurant — Restaurant in Maʻopūtasi County

EDITED: BEWARE - not all the tofu dishes are vegetarian and the staff/mgmt/cooks are NOT on the same page.

I went back a few days later, and the owner of the restaurant was there, and she said that it would not be pork that it would be chicken, so there’s absolute utter confusion on what is in the dish, but most importantly, it’s not vegetarian! The lack of communication disgusted me, and I have never been back. They cannot be trusted with sensitive...

Had a party if ten here. Ordered multiple dishes and everything was delicious. The wonton soup has a Samoan coconut flavor in it and the sweet and sour sauce is delicious! Their quick and efficient and everything came out hot! The green tea is healing on a rainy day! No pictures it was too good to pause and picture first then it was gone! Definitely a good choice. ...
