Mahana Fresh

I was first introduced to Mahana Fresh via the ever so helpful Find Me Gluten Free app. I was starved and in need of something straightforward with the gluten free options front and center. So I stopped in with my daughter who also has a gluten allergy and my husband in tow who gladly eats healthily when with us (and always surprised by how normal eating gf tastes). Mahana has so many great menu options and entrees to choose from. They offer an option to build your own bowl from the freshest ingredients or choose from any of their specials already outfitted with the best selections to compliment the entree experience. The staff behind the counter greeted us with smiles while simultaneously let them know how excites to try them for the first time. The woman even let me sample something I was curious about. She and the gentleman went on to explain how everything is prepared fresh daily, from the purest ingredients sans gluten all the way down to the desserts! After having the bowl that has become each of our standout favorites I’ve been hooked enough to come back three times in the span of two weeks! I can’t believe it has taken me this long to download the app for future savings, upcoming specials via notification alerts and to write this review! Not only is Mahana worth stopping in to for a nice, filling meal it is clean, quiet and worth the trip for us! I really wish there was a location closer to where we reside. Alas, a dedicated gluten free menu and kitchen alive is worth our drive.

As soon as I walked in, I was greeted by a kind woman. They weren't busy at all, and that's sad because they were extremely kind and the food was delicious. I got the vegan bowl with a garlic ginger tasting sauce. It came with it. If I could change anything, I would like my food to be warmer than it was. It wasn't cold, but I would have liked it a little warmer. Oh , nd the bathroom was clean and functional.

Absolutely impressed with the bowl I got today. Ingredients were very healthy and filling for a great price. it was my first time ordering a poke bowl like this but the staff was very helpful with the selection process. I enjoyed getting all the different sauces in separate containers so I could really experiment with the flavors unlike similar places who drown the bowl with sauce. My buddies and I will be back for more to say the least.
