Sparky's Food Company - Kahului Restaurant

Sparks’s Food Company is a great stop when you want bold, local-style flavors and comfort food that’s done really well. We started with the spam wontons as an appetizer, and they were awesome — crispy, salty-savory, and dangerously easy to keep snacking on. For mains, we had the Hurricane Mochiko Chicken, which was the standout: that perfect mochiko crisp with big flavor and a satisfying, hearty vibe. We also ordered a furikake panko-crusted entrée, and it was excellent too — crunchy coating, great seasoning, and a nice contrast to the mochiko chicken. Overall: fun menu, big flavors, and everything we tried was a win

***photos are taken after we already started eating*** :) Food is amazing and came out so quickly. Hurricane Poke bowl had amazing flavor and portions. Smoked meats were awesome too. Staff was very kind and friendly. Highly recommend! You can sit down to eat but it comes in to-go containers so it’s just chill and casual.

We popped in here on the way to the airport on a cool February afternoon. As soon as we walked in, we knew this place was special! The walls were lined with wonderful, historical photographs of people critical to Hawaii's development making a strong statement to the food's authenticity. It took us awhile to decide because the menu had so many delightful choices. As we were on a bit of a time crunch, we chose a few items, to share, and every single one was fabulous! I was feeling adventurous and asked our server what sauce I should have with my rice dish. There were two to choose from, with one being a bit spicy and the other more mellow. I chose the mellow one and was not disappointed! The hurricane sauce was so flavorful and creamy that I scraped every last bit out of the little container. If we could have brought the large bottles they had for sale on the plane, I would have purchased a dozen. The meat dishes were delicately, seasoned, well prepared, and tender. The kids meals came with a drink, and included simple dishes like hot dogs, quesadillas and fish, which the grandkids loved! The entire restaurant, including the kitchen area, restroom, and seating space was immaculately clean. Looking forward to going to Sparky's again where we may take our time and try more dishes!
