Koolau Center

Beware of cell phone thieves. Just had mine taken from McDonalds (temple valley). Not recovered… yet. I will not stop looking and posting. You phone thieves simply have no self conscience. You live with your own ugly-​ness in taking what’s not yours. Shame on you! What a shameful life you must live. You are a disgrace to your family and to this island. If anyone out there has any information on stolen phones, please report it to your nearest PD. Mahalo for reading this post.

Koolau Center is located across Valley of the Temples in Kahaluu. Plenty of parking with a mix of various stores and services to include Times Supermarket, Subway, McDonald’s, a snack shop, local gift shop, karaōke, driver’s license testing location, dental office, nail salon, dialysis center, theater, and a handful of restaurants for Hawaiian, local, sushi, and Chinese food.
I’d say the best part of the Center is the Consolidated Theater.

This little neighborhood shopping Strip Mall can be decieving, but it actually has quite a few shops that should suit your amenities.
The 2 anchors is Times Market, which convenient if you live in the Koolau, Ahuimanu, Kahaauu area and you don’t want to drive to Safeway.
I do like their local produce, and their wine is Fujioka’s. It does lack in the meat and bakery department and specialty items.
Entertaiment-​We also prefer to see movies at our Consolidated 10 Theaters because it’s never crowded.
For Beauty-​They have a Supercuts for hair, Koolau Nails and Wellness Center that has massages, yoga, Zumba and JuJitsu classes.
My dentist Dr. Brown has been there for the last 12 years I’ve been here, and more.
Food–
For breakast, they have Time’s Restaurant, local food, L & L Drive-​in and Pakele’s. The Temple Valley Chinese Restaurant & Ninja Sushi for Asian, Subway and McDonald’s for a quick fix, Koolau Snack shop for goodies, and the ever so popular Steak & Chicken & Garlic Shrimp plates at Time’s every Saurday and Sunday.
Even food for your pet’s at Eastside Supply Pet food.
And if you need a new Driver’s liscence or take a test, they have the least crowded DMV on the island!
So next time you pass by, drive in and see what fancys your palate!

Koolau Center is great. It has changed so much over the years. I think many people would consider this to be near temple valley in Kahaluu, which is on the windward side where i grew up.
I like this center because of the excellent shops that are here, they have a times, korean bbq resturaunt called «Bob’s Korean BBQ» and even a Hawaiian food resturaunt which used to be «Masa and Joyce» but recently changed to another resturaunt.
Another highlight of this town square is the theater. While Koolau Theatre may not always provide the most up-​to-​date and advanced technology in cinematics today, its is very much a peaceful movie theater with plenty of room and seating. I have never had to show up very early to get a good seat for a show.
Along with the various restaurants and theater in the spotlight center of Kahaluu, there is also a times super market, which may supply most of your grocery needs. Although do not come here looking for great deals on poke, because it is quite pricier than other places and previously frozen.
The town center itself, is really laid back, and it brings about a feeling as if you’re entering the country zones of the island. Surrounded by the beautifu Koolau mountain ranges and temple valley cementery, temple valley may not offer the same variety as ala moana center but is great place to bring the family to relax, watch a movie and grab a bite to eat. HANA HO koolau center!
