Great deli and poke selection. Can refill gallon water bottles for $0.35 at the machine outside.

One of the best markets we've ever been to worldwide. Wide aisles, huge multicultural variety, lots of fresh prepared foods for taking to the beach, fair prices, helpful staff, quick check out, conveniently located with lots of easy free parking.

Just went today! I had delicious local tap beer watched the Packers game picked up some fresh made vegetables and sun noodles on the hot bar. Everything was absolutely delicious. You can't get better cooked noodles anywhere on the island. Son noodles are fresh made noodles and you can really tell the difference.

The atmosphere is usually very welcoming here and the workers are friendly.I've never experienced any problems until finding a hair and a cockroach leg in my food today. It was very shocking and disturbing because I already had a few bites to eat. I called the store to report it to a manager; who was pleasant and willing to refund me.I would suggest that workers wash their hands, utensils, pots and pans prior to food preparation; wear gloves, a hair net and also a beard net (if applicable). I don't think I'll buy any prepared food for a while. Hopefully better sanitation standards will be implemented.

New, clean with just about everything you could look for in a supermarket. As I was locating it with Google Maps I couldn't find it because the location shows the property before the market and the other businesses in the area was built.

Nice little market. Has a small variety of organic food. Just a bit on the expensive side.

Largest market servicing the Pahoa area. Pricey yet got everything you need in groceries. Their specialty and take-out deli are great, the food is prepared daily, and an array of variety. The Poki, and prepared raw seafood are awesome and the price is a little more than others, but still a great deal.

Wonderful bud heavily over priced on most stuff. Not everything is over priced though. It’s worth stopping by. I stay on the left side of the store.

Super friendly staff, Awesome building, I have shopped there since it opened, over 100 times and I am still amazed at the cool super high ceiling. My only gripe is the prices are high but we are in Pahoa so we got to pay the extra for shipping. Thanks Malama and thanks Puna Kai Shopping Center ! Mahalo !

Best supermarket I've ever been to! Friendly staff! Awesome selection and variety of products. They also have live music and a place for you to sit and eat. If it wasn't for the high prices it would get 5* (but I'm comparing to London prices)

A bit pricey but small price to pay to get those few items you don't want to run into Hilo for. Their meats are great and produce is better than some fruit stands. Great workers all very nice and helpful. If I could afford to shop for everything here I would.

Greedy establishment! They jacked up their 13 lb., $27.99 Purina cat food, to $48.39 in 1 month! My husband and I made a financial VOW to wait till the weekend, and do our shopping at KTA Puainako instead, for FRESH POKE, a delicious hot deli, fresh local meat (Mountain Apple brand), and intelligent educated employees! I don't even like stepping foot in their affiliated "Food land" stores; same greedy owners!

This Malama Mkt. is the absolute best supermarket on the big island. Really think I've been to them all. Reasons for "best"? #1 The staff is very friendly, knowledgeable, as well as helpful.#2 Their selection is amazing. Their shelves are always well stocked and fronted...nice! Food is always very fresh.I could go on but you get the picture.
