Down to Earth Organic & Natural Kakaako

The food bar here is delicious. Lots of great veggie and vegan options. The manager, a young fellow with long hair named Caleb, is amazing and knows his job well. He has upper management written all over him.

Down to Earth is the local version of Sprouts or Trader Joe’s, with a unique and highly desirable selection. It’s Disneyland for health-nuts, especially for peeps like us with a gluten intolerance and a keto diet. Everything is clean, well stocked, abundant, and delicious. Not pictured here is the amazing, out of this world vegan, gluten-free spread we ordered for Thanksgiving. Honest to goodness out of this world delicious stuff. And it wasn’t an absolute cluster f..k like WFs was. Just saying. And we had to pick up our outrageously priced cold turkey from there so we know. This place is a jewel. See photos of the awesome selection.

Wonderful grocery store! Loved their hot foods section with all the plant-based options. Discounted options also available later in the day, like musubis and pizza. Great service every time we have been there. Very inclusive environment.

Not the cheapest grocery store, but wonderful for many heath-promoting foods and options. Also love their bulk section.

Vegan + vegetarian options galore!!
Locally owned speciality grocery market so its a bit pricier than other super markets.

This market is newly built/modern, clean and well kept. Service here is friendly and helpful.

Outdoor seating area along Keawe St

Inside has ample seating options as well. Great place to wait for your pizza to be made

Prepared foods like lasagna, Sandwiches and wraps are tasty and readily available.

The hot food section is also great.

Parking entrances along South St, Keawe St and Pohukaina.

Take a ticket and Down to Earth will validate for you at cashier/check out for 2 hours.

We're baaack!🤗

My Honey and I visited DTE this past Sat for lunch. We ordered our burgers (again!), only this time I tried the lavosh wrap. Just like my first experience-the burger was absolutely delish! The veggies are so fresh and crisp. The Beyond Burger was insanely juicy and yummy! Although, I did not care for the lavish wrap. Reminds me of a wheat tortilla, only slightly thicker. The sandwich was "toasted," but it didn't seem to be toasted. Wrap was still soft. I expected it to be a little toasty. Oh well 🤷🏼‍♀🤷‍♂I had a hot chocolate with my meal. I really enjoyed that! It was made with coconut milk and had a generous sprinkling of cinnamon! So yummy😋 After lunch, we got food from the self-serve. We had enough food for the next 4 or 5 meals!!! What did we have? Eggplant Parmigian, Meatballs😋, Curried rice (dried out, so I just sprinkled water all over it before sticking it in the microwave), mock barbeque chicken wings 😋😋😋(I was really pleased with the texture and flavors! Yum!), mock chicken and luncheon meat musubi (have yet to try it!), and some other veggie dishes. Like I said, when I get food to go-i have enough for the upcoming week and my Honey's lunch for work. 😉😁

Thank you for another great experience! 🥰

Love this DTE location. Parking is validated (by a machine close to the front entrance, so quick and easy). The store is clean, organized and fully stocked. I could spend hrs here! I was looking for a mushroom supplement and I was so surprised by the selection, especially the support to a product made in Hawai'i (see picture). As a sober person, I was also surprised by their botanical teas, hop waters and other nonalcoholic selection. Sparkling Botanicals by Rishi Brand is just lovely (and absolutely sugar free).

While browsing, I was asked multiple times if I needed assistance which shows how great their customer service is. Though I didn't get hot, prepared food this time, they have an amazing selection and everything is so delicious. So glad DTE exists! Mahalo

I miss this food store, it was my neighborhood go to store. As a vegetarian they had basically everything that I needed, including the hot bar. Just recognize that all food in Hawaii is expensive. You get what you pay for and this store always had quality produce.

DTE has a wonderful value menu. I love the burger. It's a regular for me when I work.

I recently shopped in this local store. I tried the organic coffee in the deli and it was delicious. I also was looking for supplements. I was delighted when a store associate asked me if I needed help. He was very knowledgeable and we talked for a few minutes. Great customer service. I will return because if great customer service and friendly associates. Thank you.

Fantastic buffet, sandwiches, burgers & pizzas all catered to healthy eaters, vegetarians & vegans. Groceries. Vitamins & supplements too.

Awesome place i go almost every day, the food is very good and the customer service is excellent, best Down to Earth on Oahu and i been on all of them!

Such a great selection of all kinds of products that are healthy for you and the environment. Their hot bar has an excellent selection of food, and they have pizza that you can order, and smoothies, drinks, salads, etc... Love Down to Earth! They also have free validated parking for up to 2 hours!

Vegetarian grocery/deli with many vegan options. Many grab n go lunch/dinner items.

Local souvenirs, great selection of supplements, fresh wok dishes and juices made while you wait. Can order ahead for pick up.
Nice clean store.

Best bakery on the island. The ube sugar cookies are particularly very good.

Great selections, super friendly staff, easy parking and it's free with validation

Vegetarian grocery store. Amazing place to buy health foods.
They also offer ready to eat food to eat there or to go. All very tasty options full of flavor.
Best grocery store around.

My salad was excellent! Easy to find things! We need down to earth on Big island!

On the smaller side of Down to Earth stores on Oahu, but does have some unique items I have not found at other stores, as many do. This location offers various affogato drinks and some unique bakery items not found at other locations on Oahu. Parking in the ramp is free for under 15 minutes or an hour with validation at the store ($5 or $10 purchase)

Wow! This is what a health food store should look like. I'm from the Big Island, we have island naturals, which is mediocre, and abundant life in Hilo which is a little bit better, but nothing like down to earth. The selection was astonishing, the place looked like it had just gone through a Marie Kondo organization redo, and the prices were actually very reasonable. We got packaged food as well as hot food from the recently opened hot and cold bar. I asked if they were considering bringing a store to the big island but no plans yet. If they came here they would put the other health food stores out of business in about 2 weeks.

Nice place. Organic and vegetarian store.
Had the Mediterranean Panini
