UPDATE: NOV, 2018 - Had to close Mama Manoa on Dec 1, 2018.  Nothing to do with the concept or food rather a business partner that would not put in the hours to work and manage the business.  Rather than continue to put up with the non professional antics and behavior, I decided it was in the best interest of my family to walk away from this investment.  I realized a dream of bringing a great little bistro to Manoa that pays tribute to Hawaii athletes.  In the process I met some incredible people, athletes, celebrities and just great people that made this venture very worth while.  Very proud of the restaurant and have no regrets.  Just wish I had chosen a better partner to operate the business.  Truly believe if I had the place would be a success for many years to come.

I love Mama Manoa.  Hands down the best Pizza and Chicken Wings on the Island.  Visited for dinner with friends from California and we were not disappointed.  Started with the Mama Balls ($4).  These Garlicky and Cheesy Dough Balls are delicious and served with a side of Marinara Sauce.  The Mama Manoa Antipasto Salad ($16) is huge and was enough for our table.  Filled with Capicolla, Supersata, Prosciutto, Salami, Provolone, Artichokes, Onion, Tomato, Olives and a delicious Balsamic Dressing and Reduction.  Also loved the Pickled Vegetables that top this salad.  The Garlic Wings ($15) are huge and delicious.  Mama Manoa serves the Wing and Drumette so these Wings are larger and meatier than most places.  Went with an order of Hot Wings ($15) and they delivered on flavor and heat.  The Rich Miano Italian Sandwich ($15) is huge and is by far my favorite sandwich in Hawaii.  All the Italian Meats, Cheese with fresh lettuce, tomato, onion and a delicious Balsamic Dressing.  Love this sandwich!  Served with large side of Fries.  Mamas Meatballs ($15) are served in a cast iron skillet and covered in Mamas Gravy and a dollop of Ricotta Cheese.  The Meat Balls are all beef and melt in your mouth.  Delicious!  Mamas Lasagna ($14) also comes served in a skillet and the portion is large and covered in Mamas Gravy and Meat Sauce.  This Lasagna delivered on presentation and flavor.  The Greg Salas Carne Asada Pizza ($16) is a Carne Asada Burrito on a Pizza.  This is a flavor bomb that is so good.  Served with fresh Cilantro from the garden next to the patio dining room.  The Rell Sunn Margarita Pizza ($15) is simple with only Tomato Sauce, Cheese and Basil.  This pizza delivers on flavor and is delicious.  The Duke Kahanamoku Supreme Pizza ($16) is one of my favorites here.  Pepperoni, Sausage, Onions and Peppers with tasty Tomato Sauce. I could eat this Pizza every single day.  Last up was Mamas Bread Pudding ($9 w/Ice Cream).
Oh my goodness this is a sweet and flavorful ending to an incredible meal.  Got to admit this is my favorite pizza joint in Hawaii and I love the Hawaii athletics theme and Wall of Fame.  Place is cool, hip and is full of so much Hawaii sports history.  Oh and I should tell my readers that I own the place so may be a little bias.  Actually I do love all of the food here.  Would not serve it if I did not think it was the best.
