    Definitely one of the larger ABC stores I've been to, this is located right off of Kalakaua - Their selection seems pretty plentiful, ranging from gift items, keychains, snacks, food-to-go, a beverage selection, apparel, etc. There were also some sale items, too. The aisles are a little narrow, considering the overflow of food traffic here from the hub bub of DT Waikiki. Definitely a fun place to peruse as well as pick up some basics. +large selection +huge foot traffic

    Chill ABC mart with a good arrangement of sunscreens, Hello Kitty Accessories, floss, deodorant and so on. Store associates were nice too.

    I'm a huge fan of the ABC store chain. Whenever I'm in Hawaii, I always make it a point to stop at ABC. This particular location is one of my faves because it's conveniently located inside of International Marketplace. They've got everything that you need in this little store. Did you forget your toiletries? They've got that. Need some souvenirs to take back home with you? They've got it. How about some snacks or grab and go food?! Yep, they've got that too. I needed to purchase some sunscreen and a few boxes of those lovable chocolate covered macadamias for friends back home. Found both of those items and of course stocked up on some other things too. They've got the best and most creative souvenirs here! If you're not prepared for the beach, they've also got tons of flip flops, beach towels, and bathing suits. They've also got a pretty decent wine and alcohol section in here too. I love that they validate parking tickets if you're parked in the International Marketplace garage. The staff is also very friendly and helpful. If you're in need of souvenirs, toiletries, or other essential items, this ABC store has got everyone that you need.

    For the tourist, ABC Stores are a life line in the ocean of dining out. To me there seems to be a store on every block in the tourist section of Waikiki. It is also one of those variety of stores whose inventory is "if they don't have it, you don't need it". Overall, we bought meals there, hot and cold, we bought alcohol (to enjoy in our hotel room overlooking the night lights), we bought pharmaceuticals (OTC) and we bought a few articles of clothing that we left at home. Considering we were captive tourists, the prices weren't too bad. You can see from the pics some of the various foods items we purchased. Dining out on vacation can be extremely expensive and it was nice to just stay in, even once in a while. ABC offers an affordable option for doing so. The foods items were fresh. The quality was average or above. I liked the variety to choose from. In the back of the larger stores, they have a hot food area. These meals were generally good and the service was quick (make sure to ask for utensils - it's not always voluntarily provided). The stores were quick in and out, even in the evenings when they were more crowded.

    A must on every trip to the islands!

    It's your classic "convenience store meets souvenir shop then has little ABC Store babies" story. I love, love, love these ABC Stores. They make my heart happy every time I see one, which is fortunate for my heart since you see multiple stores per block. This ABC Store is located at the Hyatt Regency Waikiki Resort. The structure of the store is narrow taking you almost through an alleyway from Kalakaua Ave to the interior courtyard of the resort. It's more of a mini express, but gets the job done if you're staying at the resort. For a wider selection, visit any of the many other stores located within a block. Save your receipts if you're interested in receiving a free gift for spending $100 during your stay. Pro tip: If you're aspiring for a golden brown tan, look for Maui Babe. It's a must get for me during every single visit to the islands!

    Yelp removed my original post. All the things people say on their site and you want to remove mine which is straight forward and TRUE. Basically people of color watch out for this ABC store the managers will look at u crazy. Lady didn't want to give me a new water that one of the ABC store employees cut the bottom when opening the box it came in. And I had a receipt and she still didn't want to give me a new water. A 1.99 its way over priced anyways. Be careful people and keep your receipts until you leave the island and get home. Tried to take my ALOHA spirit. Clearly the manager here needs to get the ALOHA spirit. Thanks for taking my first review YELP. Ps. Don't go to this one next to the Tesla store. There are dam near 20 ABC stores within a half mile air radius. O yea. The blue Hawaiian drink they got is gooood.

    San Miguel , taste much fresher in cans than bottles.

    There are over 30 ABC Stores throughout Waikiki. Very convenient and practically everything you would need. I always enjoy browsing through the stores checking their product availability. Beer and Snack items are what I normally wind up buying and Ahi Poke ( if it looks fresh ) What's amazing is all the ABC Stores are busy. With so much tourist , there's always a flow of customers *** Save your receipts to get your free gift ***

    Chocolate covered macadamia nuts, even available in multiples!

    There is quite literally an ABC store on almost every block! It's great because they have items that a 7-Eleven convenience store would carry (toiletries, snacks, beverages, etc) as well as souvenirs that you might want to take home (T-shirts, keychains, shot glasses, magnets, etc) all very conveniently located all over Honolulu.

    My girlfriend and I were in Waikiki for the last week. We visited a few of the ABC stores while we were there. On the last day of our trip, we went in to this location to buy our souvenirs for the trip. It was one of the largest ABC locations we saw. I grabbed a basket and we started to shop around. As we started to add items to the basket, we started to realize one of the employees following us around. It was not obvious at first but then she kept pointing things out that we were looking at. There were tons of people in the store but she always found it a way to be around us and input her opinion. By the end, it started to get really uncomfortable and clear that she pushed herself on our shopping experience like that. Few things to mention: We did not walk in with oversized bags, backpacks or purses. My girlfriend was the only after an American person in the store. The employee who was on the floor the entire time, also decided to help the cashier check us out (where she was never at the entire time we were in the store nor did for other customers). With Waikiki being such a melting pot of travelers and such a tourist destination, it was disappointing to see these actions in your store location and more disappointing to see how it affected who I was with. It was very clear why we out of all the people in the store were being followed. When it became blatantly obvious that this was happening we should have taken our business elsewhere and we should have spoken up. I hope you realize how you can easily change an experience for people with your employees actions.

Daisy spent so much time with me throughout the customization process, truly listening to my ideas and ensuring my vision came to life. I provided a loose pink stone, and together they helped create a beautiful piece that feels like a second engagement ring to me. What impressed me most was their commitment to customer satisfaction. There was a misunderstanding during the process that was entirely my fault, not theirs. Despite that, Daisy and Amy went above and beyond to make sure I was happy with the final result. They were patient, kind, understanding, and genuinely cared that I loved my ring. Their professionalism, craftsmanship, and dedication are outstanding, but what really sets them apart is their aloha spirit. They treated me with such warmth and grace throughout the entire experience. I am incredibly grateful and would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking for a truly special custom jewelry experience or any piece in general

    First and foremost, I want to call out that it REALLY helps to have done research prior to…read morepurchasing an engagement ring. You should have some idea on what the special person in your life would want and pictures are the best way to get that help in designing the proper ring (if you're going the custom route). This includes, but is not limited to, the setting, the setting material, prong design, diamond clarity/color/cut/size, even other features she might like - and most of all, ring size. Knowing details beforehand made the conversation much more enlightening than I ever imagined. I spent a year sporadically researching options, keeping Moshe in my back pocket - turns out, he was the one I should've went to all along. Back in April, I contacted Moshe since the time was coming up fast. I googled that the turnaround time for a ring was typically 5-6 weeks and I was about 7 weeks out from the day I planned to propose. I needed to get with someone I knew people trusted and that just had a flawless attitude to getting high quality pieces completed - Moshe was my guy. I chatted with him a bit on IG to explain what I'm looking for, got a quick quote, and asked about turnaround time before booking an appointment. When booking the official appointment, you need to provide a deposit (that gets credited to your total cost of the ring). This is when it gets serious so make sure you're ready to commit. When I showed up to the appointment, I was greeted as if I were a family friend. Though I will recommend you inquire about the exact location of their office before you show up. It's impossible to find on Yelp at least to my knowledge and for security purposes, I think it's safe to leave that information out of my review as well, but that's something for you to keep in mind. Anyway, everyone is incredibly nice, they're quite literally like a family. We sat down in Moshe's office where he asked a few basic questions before digging into the finer details about design. I had videos, pictures, and experiences to share (based on discussions I had with my girlfriend). Moshe walked me through the entire customization from diamond size (which I had already picked out prior to the appointment on his website), setting, prongs, and of course, budget and pricing. Most importantly, selecting a date-range for pickup (at least, in my case). After designing, I got to meet Aunty M, who takes payment while Moshe got on the phone to get my order in the queue ASAP due to my time constraint. I was in the process of getting a fresh new credit card for this purchase so I put down a deposit on one card before paying two days later with the fresh one - kind of recommend this since you can end up using these points for a trip later, maybe even your honeymoon, who knows! Come the week that we take off on this trip (proposing overseas), I called up the office to see how we were doing on time. After a bit of back and forth, we agreed on a pickup date one day before takeoff. That meant that I was clear to not only tell my parents it was happening, but to also ask for the blessing of my girlfriend's father. Now that we're back, we downsized the ring by a full size so it'll fit my fiancée's finger better since the hint that I got early on about ring size was actually not accurate. I shared the story of the ring customization with her and let me tell you, it was quite an adventure, but she loves how it came out - it was literally the ideal design. Thank you to Moshe and the team, the ring was perfect thanks to all of you for making it happen. She cannot take her eyes off it now, it's just spectacular.
