    Cream cheese wontons
    Stephanie S.

    We stopped here for dinner our first night in town and went back the next night bc it was so good. The cream cheese wontons are most likely the best we've ever had. We ordered two orders the second night so we didn't have to share. lol I had the drunken noodles both nights. First night with beef and the second night with chicken. I preferred the beef. My husband got the combination poke bowl the first night and the chicken chowmein. He liked both. They were super busy the second night so we waited over 40 minutes for our food. The first night it was only about 5 minutes. There was a nice lighted seating area behind the food truck with picnic tables. We were happy part of it was under a canopy when it started raining we took shelter at a table there. Plenty of parking spots in the lot they're located in too.

    So I came for food, but then noticed that they had the mango sticky rice dessert so of course I passed on food and ordered dessert. It was delicious. Worth every bite, only problem was that I wish I had more.

    Exceptional food at this truck with the sweetest operators, who gave us an order of mango sticky rice on the house. Delicious!

    Awesome food truck. It was located down the Airbnb that I rented out for a week. We went there once but saw they ran out of sticky rice. We went again before we had to fly back. Had yellow curry this time and it was great! The lady taking our order remembered us from the first time we went. Great service and a great place to end my trip to Kauai!

    Thai and Poke is a cute food truck in Wailua super close to the beach. The menu consist of Thai curries, sushi and poke. I ordered a spicy Aji poke bowl. I thought it was pretty good. It was light but filling. The service was super friendly and at the window was informative and kind.

    I'm usually not impressed with food trucks. This place was very good!! The panang and satay were spot on. The panang wasn't too spicy more on the sweeter side.

    Pad Thai with chicken

    Amazing super tasty Thai food!!! Friendly staff and easy to find a table and parking. Also great for take out. Will definitely be back to try more

    Mango Sticky Rice
    Stephanie D.

    I've been seeing their sign for a while and finally decided to give it a try. Yelp shows them near Island Craves, but they're actually located right next to the wine shop and directly across from McDonald's. I ordered the chicken satay, pork larb, chicken Thai basil, and mango sticky rice. All were absolutely delicious with generous portions. The chicken satay isn't served on sticks, but the flavor is spot-on, possibly the best I've had on Kauai. The larb was well seasoned with the perfect balance of tanginess and spice. There are tables set up behind the food truck under shaded covers, which makes for a nice spot to eat. The staff was friendly, and my food came out fairly quickly even though they were busy. I'll definitely be coming back for more!

    Medium spicy garlic shrimp
    Cinthia L.

    The food is incredible and the service is amazing. They are very nice sweet people. I had the medium spicy garlic shrimp. My husband and I keep going back to them because the food is so delicious.

    Drunken Noodle with vegetables

    What a great find! Best Thai food we ever had on the island. We were driving by thinking of what to have for dinner and saw people lined up to this food truck and decided to give it a try. Did not disappoint! Service and food were amazing.

    Pineapple curry, Pad-Thai
    Ruth V.

    100/10! Hands down the best shrimp pineapple curry I've ever had. Perfect balance of sweet, savory, and spice -- every bite was a flavor bomb!

    Cute food truck

    Chow mein tastes like ramen noodles with soy sauce. Not best but not the worst. Over priced for the quality.

In fact, a lot of love show for all the food trucks in the Kapaa area. But this joint had hella high reviews on all platforms and it's been a fat minute since I've scarfed down Thai food so braddah I was hyped. I asked the employees to give me whatever they thought a first time customer should have: hence, I ended up w their chicken pad Thai. There's no spice level as they'll give ya a side of thai peppers to sprinkle over to your liking. Now idk if it's bc I waited maybe 20minutes before eating. But idk. It just didn't hit like how I want my pad Thai to hit. The noodles were clumped together and even after mixing everything together, the taste and texture was just a bit dry and lacking in umame. I really wish I could hype this place more just bc but. Yeah. I'm guessing I just caught them on an off day or maybe it's just my b for taking too long to walk to my end destination for chowing down.

There are several food trucks in that location and there are few tables for sitting outside or easy street parking for a quick pick up. Our order was ready in less than 10min. Price is reasonable.
