I got the beyond burger with a wheat free wrap. It was soooo good and tasted so healthy! I would definitely come back here. I am gluten and dairy free and they had so many options. They even had a food bar with lots of good looking food! They also have wheat free and vegan pastries. :)

Great allergen friendly store! I didn’t realize they were only vegan though- I was very surprised when I asked where the jerky was when I ended up in front of mushroom jerky haha. But a good place to stop at to stock up on snacks regardless!

Amazing allergy friendly grocery store with many vegan and gluten/wheat free options! Pricier (as expected) but has everything you could want plus some fresh ready to eat food.

We stayed at Aulani resort and needed an escape from resort food. We were so happy to find Down to Earth. We ate off the deli buffet and we were a bit nervous because of cross contamination and scoops getting mixed, but no reaction the 3 times we ate there. All of the ingredients was listed for each item. We had the Kale sesame salad, purple potato salad, greek salad, Asian rice wrap with noodles and bean sprouts. The fresh fruit smoothies were safe too. We bought other snacks and goodies that were brands we trusted and new to be GF. It was a very good experience! Thank you Down to Earth!

GF chocolate doughnuts. Enough said. I cried when I first came to this store. There are so many GF options where being GF is the norm and not the exception. It's an important feeling for someone with Celiac. Being from the South, I've missed potato and chicken salad, but their mock chicken salad is on point! Found my new favorite place!

Very satisfied with the options that were available here. Only down side was their lack of Organic Bread. I did my homework before visiting the island. Happy Shopper here!

Salad/food bar with ingredients clearly listed, GF pizzas etc. Take out or eat at a few tables on the sidewalk in front of the store (it's a grocery store). The store has a good range of GF products too. Great for lunch while shopping in Kapolei.

My son and I ordered the wheat free sandwich/burger. Both of our orders came on wheat bread and wheat bun. I asked to see what the wheat free bun and bread looked like and could tell we did not get that. We got a refund.

They have Gluten free groceries. They offer gluten free options for their hot food but due to cross contamination not a single thing is safe for celiacs. Got my hopes up for hot food from here while traveling only to result in being told I can’t have anything.

Stay with what you know. There are many safe packaged foods on the shelves of this vegetarian grocery. Prepared foods from the deli are not celiac safe. Read the cards, they say wheat free and they do not cook/bake using celiac safe guidelines.

They have a large selection of gluten free foods in their store. In the deli section, “wheat free” options are clearly labeled. However there are no separate preparation areas, which makes it not the most celiac friendly of places, although we have never gotten sick. The foods in the deli are all health foods—mostly vegetarian/vegan, and it is mostly good.
