Mililani Shopping Center

My 2,000th review. I definitely like this shopping center as it's outdoors and seems like a lot of high school students come here to hang out as with any mall. I like how there's lots of restaurants you can eat at. Not too many big stores but there are a few I definitely like. I like Morning Glory and Jeans Wearhouse. That's pretty much it. No other stores here interest me.
Only the restaurants are what attracts me here.
My daughter came here for a kid's activity once. She got fed a taco and a drink. She got to do arts and crafts.
She also loves going to the arcade here. Plenty of parking around the shopping center.
It's a little out of the way for us but traffic going and leaving isn't too bad. I would definitely come back again.

Very convenient spot to get what is needed for the day. (from around 6am to 9pm) There's a decent pet store and vet office, banks and credit union, minor medical offices (dentist and small clinics), Autozone and Goodyear along with gas stations, Fantastic Sam's, a 24 Hour Fitness, and a few restaurants and small takeout spots including Starbucks, Blazin' Steaks, Subway, BaLe, Papa Murphy's, Nagoya Ramen, Maile Chinese Restaurant, Mililani Restaurant, and The Shack. Foodland is a nice spot to get groceries and essentials.

Owned by the same company as Town Center of Mililani, Mililani Marketplace, and Gateway at Mililani Mauka, between the four spots, there's a good variety of places to meet the needs of all residents and visitors at almost any hour (one 24 hour Long's Drugs, a few 24 hour convenience stores and fast food spots, and a UFC Gym and 24 Hour Fitness... and that's why I enjoy living in Mililani).

Four car chargers, ALL BROKEN. One was working for the last a year or so. Now it is broke too. Store owner next to the charger hogs it all the time anyway. Mililani Shopping Center wifi can connect, but doesn't give you any internet. Mismanaged garbage shopping center. Getting more and more run down every month.

Like the walkability of this shopping center and the food options here. I will say there are 4 EV chargers here but only one works. The only one that works is always taken by either a worker or owner of the nail salon by foodland. Really wish the EV chargers worked at this mall I would come more frequently!

My most frequented shopping center on the daily is where I usually pick up my groceries at Foodland, plate lunch at Mililani Restaurant, work out at 24 hour fitness, pick up a drink at Jamba Juice/Starbucks, and shop at Ross. Those are some of the few stores located at this part of MSC. It's a two part shopping center. Across the street from Foodland is First Hawaiian Bank, Mililani physicians center, Gentle Dental, and the farmers market on Fridays to name a few. Parking is much more scarce on the Foodland side during most of the day, but eventually a stall will open up after circling for quite a bit.

Some things I recommend:
-advertise volunteer opportunities to help out at seasonal events somewhere readily available
-place the activities elsewhere instead of the most frequented spot of the mall (Foodland area). Parking is scarce enough..

I had an eventful day leaving the shopping center today. Obviously a non-local, he decided he wanted my stall as I was trying to exit. Yes of course you may have it just so long as you follow the road signs and I can exit. Wouldn't want to run over your tiny car ;) It was a clear one way which I made it clear to him but he insisted on that stall. I had my laugh of the day and went on with it. Not much can be changed to the structure of how the parking lot works, it's just drivers who don't read the signs nor paint on the road.

The parking lots on both sides of the shopping center are a bit chaotic. There's not really any rhyme or reason to the direction of the traffic and it really is confusing especially for the ever growing community of new Military service men/women. Countless times I've been so frustrated with out of state license plates driving in the wrong direction and you can't always blame them. Another thing that seems like an ongoing problem is the pot holes or cracked roads. The trees are nice to provide shade but they create so much debris and the huge roots ruin the roads. Not sure what could be done about that but just a little annoying to shoppers. On the First Hawaiian side they have added some seating, shade and tables which is nice. It's just a matter of time before they start looking all moldy, it's just what happens to everything on this rainy side!

First Farmers Market today February 24, 2017- 3-5 pm; will be every Friday. Small but offers few good options for dinner plus fruits, veggies, couple craft booths. I purchased from 2 booths - combo plate i chose was ahi nuggets and furikake ahi. They also have modagi made with mochi & one with oreo.

The next booth I got 2 plates: combo 1 which has adobo,lumpia(various kinds like jalapeno cream cheese, banana, pork & more), and pancit.

Parking here is a challenge.

I'm usually here for Foodland.

Other places I visit here is The Shack, BOH, Mililani Restaurant, and Maile's Chinese Restaurant.

Parking is rough during peak hours, & even crazier during the holidays! Some of the driveways are narrow, so kokua big vehicles :)
Very busy shopping area, lots of stores to shop at including Starbucks, GameStop, T-Mobile, Ross, Foodland just to name a few.
I frequent here a lot just not a fan of the parking.

What can I say, this is central Oahu right smack dab in the middle of everything, shops, parks, schools, and malls.....

Every district has its good and bad but in mililani the good definately outweighs the bad .....

I am originally from wahiawa born and raised but spent alot of my youngster years in waipio valley which is right down the hill from mililani, so these are very familiar grounds for me......

For the past eight + years my family and I have been residents of this beautiful town and loved every minute of it .........

Mililani.....A great place to live and raise a family........There still is changes and repairs that need to be done, but show me a town that doesn't......
