The limeade was refreshing and the chai is a custom blend by the owners. The owner was friendly and we had a lovely time chatting. There is some outdoor seating available if needed!

I don't eat beef but one of the options on their menu was a blackened ono sandwich. I love fish so I'm glad I could get something from here. The lady said their most popular is the bacon mushroom swiss. Sounds good and I'd get it if I ate beef and bacon. The blackened ono burger tasted fresh and came with a bag of chips. The food truck is located on the side of the Prince Kūhio Plaza shopping mall. I think there used to be a Sear's over there. If you're ever in the area, I recommend trying this food truck. Be mindful that they only take cash. Their neighbor is Bite the Eye food truck which is also very good. Support local businesses!

I really wanted to try the brisket and ribs, but that wasn't possible unless I bought two plates. Chef suggested the brisket, so I got that with two sides of corn. Would the rather flimsy fork and no knife be enough? Oh yeah! The brisket just about fell apart. It was moist, which is hard to achieve; usually it's dried out. It was lightly sauced, enough to complement the meat, not drown it. The corn ears were juicy, also not dried out. I'll be looking for this truck next time I'm on the Hilo side! Gotta try those ribs.
