Review of Mahana Fresh

Our experience here was moderately positive. I was excited for a gluten-free restaurant and generally enjoy the types of foods on their menu.

The sauces we tried were delicious, and really helped to tie all the flavors together. I was surprised that the creamy Wasabi my son ordered was not too spicy, and my sweet potato coconut tasted nothing short of yummy!

The service was a little lacking, however, since there was a disagreement between the two counter workers as to who would serve us. We probably waited 5 to 8 minutes longer than was needed.

Probably the area needing most improvement was the appearance/quality of their food. We arrived about 7pm on a weeknight, so after the dinner rush. Much of their food looked overburnt or dried out. When I asked about the few mushrooms left, the server went to the back to get a fresh batch, but added it to the old ones. I wasn't impressed. Also, the scoop of Guacamole cost $2 but was so brown, my teen son threw that scoofrescos.

On the positive side, I really liked their selection of soda fountain drinks and Aguas frescas.
