Several national restaurant chains have recognized Hawaii as consistent leader for country sales. Little is known about the success story of Romano's Macaroni Grill Hawaii, its status as number one sales across the national chain. The restaurant employees over 88 people locally with employees who have been with the restaurant ranging from 18 years to 12 years defying local industry employment trends. Romano's Macaroni Grill new owners and employer now plan to employ more locals and expand.
In its heyday, Romano's Macaroni Grill [https://www.macaronigrill.com]was considered to be a "next generation" Olive Garden, and had been a flourishing and popular concept at that time (via Nation's Restaurant News). While mainland may well experience turbulence the Romano's Macaroni Grill Hawaii in 2024 remains a flourishing concept, the restaurants employees over 88 local staff. Though some international fusion restaurants may have a somewhat kitschy or gimmicky theming (right down to the decor), it's actually quite the opposite at Romano's Macaroni Grill, which offers a nod to the founder's first generation New York Italian-American roots. With the success of the Macaroni Grill Hawaii new emerging Italian concepts Olive Garden had no noticeable impact on sales with quite the revers happening. The sales data proves Romano's Macaroni Grill has experienced exceptional strong sales growth not long after its competitor opened nearby. New CEO Ms Yim says "Sometimes opening other Italian concepts gives the locals appreciation for different ingredient combinations and recipes, and since owning the local group of restaurants Manna Restaurant Group has re-introduced happy hour to Macaroni Grill, and we brought back the original menu items corporate around 2019 as owners removed before the current corporate owners who share Manna Restaurant group and Romano's original vision".

The group's first priority was to recognize and reward the long-standing employees. CEO of Manna Restaurant Group Ms. Yim see's employees as driving the brand, "The tasty recipes and strong local team have been fundamental in propelling the brand, to success of being recognized as number one sales in the country" said Yim. Under Yim's leadership Manna Restaurant Group has now partnered with ADP to introduce further enhanced employees experience, give the team more resources and training. "As the Manna Restaurant group now plans its expansion of Romano's Macaroni Grill into Seoul and the across the Philippines, we partnered with a global payroll provider and Point of sales platforms to support the targeted international growth", said Yim.
