ABC Stores #51

"We come to this store a lot as we frequent Kamaole Beach Park 1 right across the street. What sets this ABC Store apart from the majority of them is that they sport a gas station. To top that off, since my last review, they've also added their infamous deli and food selections usually found in their more upscale Island Gourmet Markets and Honolua Store in Kapalua. Now you have even more choices like cheeses, meats, breakfast items, fresh deli sandwiches, burgers, fried chicken, local plate lunches and salads. FOOD: Swiss Mushroom Burger - $11.99 You'd think there'd be consistency throughout the chain but there isn't. This exact same burger, when purchased at Island Gourmet Market in Wailea and Honolua Store in Kapalua, tastes good. Juicy, salty, cheesy - hands down my fave mushroom burger on Maui. Here, it was simply bland, dry and tasteless. Even the curly fries were under-seasoned, an oddity as they're probably of the frozen variety and pre-seasoned. Columbus Foods Prosciutto Panino - $7.00 I tried these little suckers on a whim and they've since become a favorite pupu at our beach day. Six pieces of mozzarella and thinly-sliced prosciutto rolled into sticks for the perfect finger food. Pre-packed but deli-fresh and tasty! SERVICE: Service always seems to be consistent though, no matter which ABC Store I'm in - quick and friendly with thank you's abound. There can sometimes be an English language barrier at the deli but it's few and far between. OVERALL: Perhaps I went on an off-day for my mushroom burger but I'll definitely it try again. Your one-stop shop for gas, souvenirs, necessities and now fresh foods."

"Musubi!!! Chicken katsu, span teriyaki, Portuguese sausage and egg and spam musubi. Chicken Katsu was the favorite! Ordered pancakes and they were so delicious too!!!"

"I am obsessed with this place! We spent $200 there in 2 days. The food is really surprisingly good, and the souvenirs are fun. Super convenient for all basics! We loved the bottled juice drinks with the chunks of fruit inside!"

"Food: 4/5 Service: 4/5 Ambiance: 3.5/5 Overall: SOOOOO convenient to get food here and eat it across the street at the beach. The extended review... Food: Loco Moco - 4/5 - This was the perfect lunch to enjoy at the beach. Good gravy and a good patty. More importantly the portion size was good for the price! Service: 4/5 - Friendly staff. Ambiance: 3.5/5 - A pretty clean store."

"I was impressed with the size of the store and the selection, especially the fresh produce and food! We stayed just down the street while on vacation and stopped by pretty much every day to pick up something we needed! The store was clean, well stocked, and the staff was very friendly each time we visited."
