Not extraordinary food, but better than you'd expect to find at a takeout window at a small grocery store -- especially since it's the ONLY place to eat on the east side of Molokai. We were told the fried chicken plate was a best seller, and it certainly was tasty. The teriyaki beef was good too. Reasonable prices -- like $10 a meal or so.

Off the plane and decided to get some lunch before shopping at Friendly Market and checking in. Decided on pizza as that was what most patrons had ordered. Was told the fish was frozen, not fresh, and that the burgers were "big." Noted nothing said about flavor. So we opted for the pepperoni pizza. It was pretty good and would have it again.

We have tried the saimin at a couple of places on Molokai and this is the closest to the real thing...but still lacks the great flavour. For some reason, there are few veggies in Molokai saimin...a few shreds of cabbage and that is it....

Finally - a place that I want to eat rather than eating at places out of sheer necessity due to lack of options. This place is a gem on Molokai. Tiny store at the end of the main street on the left hand side. They have one wooden table inside to eat at or just take it away. They have delicious salads (hurra!) and very good looking bento boxes and sandwiches and everything is fresh and tasty and prepared with lots of love. The girls behind the counter and in the kitchen are proud of their little business and rightly so. After 4 days on Molokai, finally decent food. Will go back every day until we leave and eat my way through their menu. Very highly recommended in you are into clean, healthy food of the non-burger, non-pizza variety and want to feel good after you have eaten and not just full. Yum. so pleased. This should be number 1 on the island along with the ice cream shop. Supernice service!

The only hotel dining room on the island of Molokai. It is under new ownership and uses local, often organic food including fresh local fish and vegetables.

His attention to detail was very lacking. We ordered an appetizer and it came well after everyone else even though we were the first to order. It came at the same time as our dinner, not good, our dinner got cold. There was a mixup with our check and he was rude to us even though it was his inattention to details that made it that way. The food was overdone and expensive. I was very unsatisfied all around.Aloha whidbeyIsland_girl87Thank you for your review. Please know that Hotel Molokai do not own or operate the onsite restaurant. However, please allow me to apologize on their behalf for the issues you encountered during dinner. I have forward your feedback to the owners/operate of the restaurant. someone will contact you.MahaloMichael DrewGeneral Manager of Hotel [email protected]
