Crema's Take

Living Foods is a vibrant gathering spot in Poipu where the craft cocktail program genuinely shines thanks to passionate bartenders like Michael, Ray, and Laura who clearly love what they do. The kitchen shows real promise with fresh, locally-inspired dishes like their special red snapper and ahi nori wrap, though consistency can be hit-or-miss, so timing your visit during quieter hours seems to reward you with the best experience. It's the kind of place where the owners' genuine aloha spirit and commitment to quality create an inviting atmosphere perfect for lingering over a drink or grabbing lunch with family and friends.

There is a good menu, but the quality is unreliable. The ahi nori wrap is excellent, but the waitress didn’t ask how we wanted our ahi cooked. The lamb burger was overdone. Fish and chips was all right. Others had chicken Caesar salad and the ago focaccia sandwich. The house white wine is good and reasonably priced.

Love this shopping center and Living Foods was our first stop! The menu is great and the food was fantastic; we had the quiche and fish and chips and it was a perfect lunch portion. The mini market also has a great selection for your everyday needs. Highly recommend!

Amazing spot! Best food and craft cocktails on the island by far. Michael, Ray and Laura are incredibly talented and kind at the bar. Ownership is incredibly good people and has the right ethos- local, clean ingredients are hard to find and they deliver on that ethos. The community market is killer too!! Thanks all. Also, drink photos would be better but we keep drinking them too fast before remembering to take pics!

I wish we would have found this little gem sooner. Such a great atmosphere and staff and the food was so so fresh. We were lucky enough to have the special red snapper that night and it was soo good. We loved the fish and chips the coffee and the acai bowls. Everything was great and we will be back again. Such a great place with all local sourced ingredients all from Hawaii. From the food to the drinks etc. A must visit for sure 10 out of 10!

We came at off peak time and it was awesome! Updated as our trip progressed: Our first 4 days were in Kauai, then 5 days in Maui, we are now in the Big Island on our second day; Living Foods was so far my top restaurant during this stretch that is within a $25-30 budget. We went back 3 times during our 4 days stay! At the last visit we didn’t have a reservation but they let us use the big table where the reservation was at 7:45pm. The staff was super helpful and authentically trying to help, everything was delicious for the price. Two thumbs up!
