What a cool couple…read more.. Happen to find this vibrant trailer parked in the Kailua Shell gas station lot and had to show them some love. It seems like they're very new to the biz as they built their trailer from a flatbed with skill and creativity and it doesn't end there as this couple has thought it all thoroughly even from our beloved shaved ice. With lots of flavors to choose from the Cold Brew caught my eye as it sounds like the perfect midday snack and not too sweet as well. It comes with ice cream which sounds just perfectly amazing but declined because it sounds too heavy along with the choice of topping (chocolate, caramel or condensed milk) or all three lol which I got condensed milk. The shave ice is very fine not thick and chunky and she explained that there's a bit of room around the edge of the bowl as it starts to melt it will for a yummy slushy consistency which it does so it does require both spoon and straw to enjoy it thoroughly. The cold brew syrup is house made and is a nice mellow flavor I enjoyed along side the trailer as there are some shaded benches they provide for convenience. They also make smoked meat and baked goods though they can't sell them out of the respect for the shell station mart but do have them at the Lokahi Kailua Market on Sundays. Come find them and keep your cool right here. Thank you!

After much anticipation due to them being closed for the holidays and working through figuring out…read moretheir schedule, we finally got a chance to head over to their evening location for a taste of that fresh Big Island lobster! They park their truck in what I overheard is on the property of one of their friends (what a cool friend!) and as such there isn't really much ambience on the street - next door there is a dive bar and there's not much else going on in the evenings, but they get credit for at least putting out some charming tables out front for customers, and making the best to work with what they've got. I ordered the combo, lobsta roll + lobster bisque. On a chilly night this hit the spot. The lobster was definitely fresh, although I felt like the roll took away from the flavor on some bites. Maybe the lobster wasn't packed in like I'm used to but hey, quality over quantity is okay by me. The bisque didn't blow me away but it was solid. Service was friendly and prompt, and I appreciate their efforts in using compostables over single use plastics (aside from the admittedly cute lobster pinned on top of the sandwich, which might i suggest to make this more Ocean Friendly by making it a paper flag)? I'm always mindful of the impact of single use trash/plastics guys, if you haven't noticed from my previous reviews. With all that said, I appreciate their use and support of locally caught lobsters which not only supports our local fisherman but also ensures the freshest and therefore most delicious seafood option, and for that they have my support. Totally worth their reasonable prices for what you get. I'll be back again when the craving for lobster rolls rolls back in, although their poke does look pretty bomb diggity so maybe I will try that too! Maybe this time I'll check 'em out in the daytime at their other location - I have a feeling the daytime vibe will feel more energetic!

Let me start by I wasn't expecting too much.

They have a nice set up with a table and some chairs under an umbrella in case you decide you want to eat there. I ordered their lobster roll and lobster bisque combo for $20. The lobster bisque came out in a small to go cup and was served with a small toasted square of Kings sweet bread and some fresh herbs. The bisque was good with chunks of lobster meet, a creamy stock, and a little bit of cauliflower. I was surprised by this but I ended up liking it as it added some texture without taking away from the lobster. The lobster roll was served on a perfectly toasted Kings roll with a side of lemon. The lobster tasted like it was grilled with butter and then they add some greens, radish sprouts, and a little but of egg salad. It seemed like he used a whole lobster for the lobster roll (albeit a small one) as there was a healthy mix of tail and claw meet. I liked how he added some egg salad and again it added a surprise to the roll without taking away the focus from the lobster. I ended up ordering another roll and left pleasantly full. I spent some time talking to Dustin afterwards and he's still trying to get the feel for things and he's also trying to figure out where he'll set up in town. He expects business to pick up significantly when he does but for now hurry up and head over to his Kailua spot before word gets out and you have to wait in line.
