LOVE this place!! Best takeout for authentic Polynesian food in Bay Area. NOT the place to go if you're counting fat or carbs!! :-) Also a decent selection of Samoan and Tongan clothes, accessories and media.

Took my kids here for the first time and they loved it! Been coming here every since with my parents

It's always a pleasure to see the owner/businesswoman doing her thing and nurturing all who partake of her cooking, with hearty and delicious Pacific Island meals. She had all the favorites and I ordered my usual tuna, palu sami, and squash meals. Today Lafi had also prepared to'ukutu with banana. It was delicious and a fitting dessert. I love supporting this small business and female entrepreneur. She has worked so hard and continues to inspire generations of Pacific Island women who want to start their own company and maintain it for as long as she has. I am so happy to know of her story and continue to support with high recommendation of this business.

Food is always good but I have to say lately the corn beef has been a little tough other than that always delicious

Was dropping off my car for service up the street and needed to get another tortoise bracelet because my old one broke. I checked on yelp, hours listed that they were open so I decided to take a walk. When I got there they were Closed today(Wed). I was so bummed but I guess I'll come back another day since it's close by. Here's the updated Hours for your reference. I've bought Polynesian print material, pearl braided necklace, tortoise bracelets, earrings, they sell Poly food, kukui nut necklaces, and Poly outfits too! It's an Awesome store and the owner is really nice!! Support Small Businesses!

This is a childhood staple for me, my dad used to take me here. I don't think there's another spot in the city that serves Samoan food. You walk in, it's a counter space to the left that sells accessories, jewelry, keychains etc. all from Samoa. The right side of the store has clothing and ie lavalavas. The food is in the back, cafeteria style serving of course. What they make everyday is half the same as usual and other days it's different. But there's always taro, fa'i (plantains), and sapasui(noodles). I got a regular plate, I opted for all fa'i and no taro. It came with sapasui, fasi povi(corned beef), and Turkey tails. When I tell you the Turkey tails do it every time for me. Slow cooked in gravy with veggies, tender and fall of the bone. Just delicious. The corned beef is a little on the salty side but I just assume it's from cooking in such large batches. The older woman (I call her aunty every time I go in) she's so kind, asks how I'm doing, how my dad and my kids are. It's like walking into your family's place. Always feel welcome. Good and quick customer service.

I love love love this place. My family and I have gone here for years (I'm surprised this is my first Yelp review about the place). It is located near the Cow Palace and pretty easy to get to from across the Bay Bridge. I legit don't mind driving here from the other side of the bridge for this food. I've had Samoan food elsewhere in the East Bay and it simply does not compare. The food is always fresh and delicious. The staff is nice and sweet, always greeting you as you walk in. The plates are $20 I believe and they come with taro, banana and 3 other items of your choice ranging from sapasui, corned beef, turkey tail, lamb curry, etc. The lamb curry is freaking BOMB and don't forget to get some palusami while you're at it. I think my mom and I have gone here weekly this summer lol but that's because it is SO good. Can't wait to see them again next week!
