We've passed by a few times and seen the large menu display on the sidewalk and folks lined up, so we tried it for the first time. Expect plate lunch and surprisingly quick pickups! quality of ingredients is what I took stars off for. might be just costco food and sauces. But you can't argue for prices in waikiki!!! read more

My bbq chicken mini bowl was pretty dry. It's inexpensive, good size portion, but unfortunately the chicken bbq could have been juicier. My wife's breakfast bowl was a bit better. The turkey sausage was pretty tasty and it came with hash browns and eggs. The spot is a grab and go and the customer service was decent. read more

Unsanitary. The cook decides to leave the trailer, take a break (with gloves still on), few minutes later goes back into the trailer (didn't see the person change their blue latex gloves to clean ones) then saw them handling our food. We threw the food away. I didn't let my friend touch any of it. Nope! read more

The breakfast service was chaotic, even with only 2 orders ahead of us. The order taker had to ask us what we ordered 3 times while ringing us up. He kept forgetting everything within the span of a few seconds. Then when calling the orders, they kept messing up who's was who's. They would call a number that already was picked up. They told me to come up, asked for my ticket, and pushed my hand away when it wasn't what they thought. Half the food was cold. The rest of the food was okay, not amazing. I'd suggest going elsewhere if you're looking for breakfast! read more

We first reviewed this place was 10 years ago (2015). Back then, they just one food truck, simple menu, grilled fish, steak or shrimp. Since then, this food truck has been expanded to a long standing shipping container equal to at least 3 food trucks with tables and benches. The menu is extensive from plate lunch of different combos of proteins (fish, shrimp, steak), loco moco, poke, tacos, breakfast and even pizza. They have QR code for the menu and taking credit card. If you can't find what to eat here... you will be starving forever... they have everything! For the price, I'm surprised to see what I put in my review back in 2015, $25 for a plate of grilled fish/shrimp or steak... I again ordered a combo of grilled ahi and beef kabobs for... $25! What?!! The portion is a bit smaller though but still pretty good. The fish and steak was grilled perfectly and pretty tasty, served with white rice, green salad and bread. We also order loco moco for $15 plate. My partner is on his "loco moco" diet who likes this loco moco (more than Goofy's or Basalt). The presentation is consistent with the dish name (loco or crazy), messy and sloppy with the gravy and ground beef patty over white rice with fried egg on top. The people here are nice and chill. They keep the area super clean. read more

Wanted breakfast but they didn't open until 8am. They have a very busy defensive menu and prices are expected . They have a QR code to order your food and seating outside for you to wait and enjoy your meal. I came back later in the day for a loco moco )they have several types) and it came out quickly. The guy was nice and offered me a bag since I took it to go. The food was plentiful and hearty. I'll definitely go back since they offer breakfast all day. read more

Blue Ocean Seafood & Steak - This was on the door of the place. - Food Trucks Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

This is definitely your typical Hawaiian spot. It has the outdoor seating and order online. The ambiance is what you expect- laid back and good jams. No one is truly friendly here tho and told me to order online yet then saw someone else order at the window right after me. The food was good- nothing that blew my socks off but good enough. I personally wouldn't come back tho read more

Most visitors know that Hawaiian food trucks are a must...well how about a shipping container? Blue Ocean operates out of a massive shipping container, displaying its HUGE seafood menu for all to easily see. I ordered the calamari and shrimp kebab, which came with a Hawaiian roll, salad, and white rice. For ~$15, the price can't be beat. The quality isn't 5-star worthy, but good for a satiating seafood meal. To me, my shrimp kebab tasted a bit like sticky caked up charcoal, so it wasn't the best tasting shrimp I've had on the island- but again, only $15 for a generous portion of seafood! The only other issue I had was the seating area...I had to clean my table and chairs off due to fresh bird poop (birds lurk around the area in hopes of munching off of you!). read more

First of all I was super excited to try this truck for a few days! I was craving shrimp fried rice! They have what's called tempura shrimp fried rice! 3 little shrimps and some fried rice that wasn't very flavorful. Disappointing...the sweet chilli chicken was ok...they could have added more sauce on the chicken. The lobster and garlic shrimp for $41.00 could have been better too. The service was fast, but the food just was ok. $70 for three items. read more

Blue Ocean Seafood & Steak is a larger food stand/Food truck located across from the well know food truck area off this stretch of Waikiki. They are hard to miss as they have big signs everywhere, and of course, that big blue block really stands out color wise while walking down the street. The food they offer here is a massive menu selection, and they offer just about any variety of what you would find from a Hawaiian BBQ place. They offer course offer a wide variety of seafood options as well, and even have things such as lobster on the menu, so not just your typical Hawaiian BBQ spot. They are also open earlier in the day and late into the night, so easily accessible. When I visited them earlier in the day I got the fried calamari and loco moco combo. The service was okay, no complaints. The food I got was hit and miss. The part that was a total miss was the rice and the mac salad, as I feel both of these were just old from the previous early day or further back and needed to get rid of it. The rice was hard, but not in a dried rice way, because it's been reheated poorly. The mac salad was honestly the worst mac salad I ever had, which is strange considering I'm getting it from the source. But not only did it not taste right, the sauce itself was grainy on every bite I could stomach until I gave up. However, the other parts of it, behind the actual loco moco and the fried calamari was fine. Egg was fine that was with the loco moco, and gravy no issue. Fried calamari was a bit on the tougher side but still tender so I didn't mind. At least the main actors for this dish were on point. Overall, Blue Ocean is a convenient option with a vast variety of choices to pick from when it comes to food options. They also offer some of the cheapest options in Waikiki for food, so not a bad place to be either. However, I'm not sure if the rice and mac salad for me this day was just a one off, and hope it was because those really took me out of the redeeming qualities for this place. Perhaps will try them in the future when I'm back and give them a try later in the day. read more

I was hella excited to try this place. Easily accessible on foot from my hotel, the promise of freshly shucked oysters not too far from the beach lured me like a cartoon character following a pie scent. But oh, the disappointment I experienced. Despite being freshly pulled from a fridge and shucked right there, what came to me directly was a half-dozen oysters almost ambient temperature; the first one I brought to my lips only made it just after them. I couldn't swallow. My brain simply wouldn't allow it. A fingertip test of the other five yielded the same conclusion. They simply weren't the temperature I felt safe in eating. The staff member did apologize and give us a refund; I did find it peculiar they wanted the order back, even after I had disposed of it in their trash. Perhaps their cooked menu is the way to go. I just wanted to warn my raw oyster enthusiasts. read more

GIRL. If you like kalbi or love kalbi. This is the place to be. We ate here four days in a row basically most of our time in waikiki. We just had to keep going back for the kalbi. Ugh it was divine and delicious. I have no words for Hawaiian food absolutely scrumptious. It's a food truck off the main strip, cute and tucked away, super overwhelming with all the different options of food but they have photos of everything so you don't go wrong with any choice. I tried kalbi coconut shrimp, kalbi garlic shrimp, kalbi, and just more kalbi haahah Do It now. read more

If you're looking for a variety of food especially late at night, this place has a ton of options. Breakfast to dinner, combo plates to pizza this spot has it all. The combo plates are loaded with a bunch of options meats and seafood. I go for steak and shrimp. All the food is seasoned and cooked well. The menu is the whole side of the wall and they have pictures of everything. My late night snack is the pizza, pepperoni or Hawaiian, it is enough to feed a few and always good the next day. read more

Turn and walk away. How challenging is it to make street tacos? apparently for Blue Ocean very difficult. they are cheap on the meat, and heavy on the pico de gallo. Definitely not worth $15, ate 1 and tossed the other 2 away. I had breaded chicken, overcooked and dry. It appeared to be freezer burned. Felt sick to my stock after eating, so I threw it away. Another waste of $15. Mexican food is not their forte. read more

This place is like food truck, food given in plastic to go containers. We used to come here to eat multiple times on our last visits. They cut amount of food and raised prices. I found it not my favorite anymore. They list prices than add kitchen fee 3 % ? to the price. We got overpriced 3 skinny pieces of lamb rib/chops with bland rice and a few pieces of lettuce with ranch for 33$. Not worthy. There are lots of better choices around read more

We were walking by here and the aroma from this food truck filled the air. The food smelled wonderful and we had to give it a try. It's right by Maguro Spot where I picked up my lunch. The hubby decided to try their sweet chili chicken $17. The prices are a bit higher here in Waikiki. They gave a lot of chicken. I can't do spicy and thank goodness it wasn't spicy at all. It was on the sweeter side. It was yummy after just getting out of the fryer and being drenched in their sauce. It came with white rice, toss salad and a butter roll. I would eat here again, but looking for parking around this place is nuts. read more

There were a lot of options, since they offered many different combos of fish, shrimp, spam, chicken, and other types of seafood. The French toast was well-flavored and the fried rice was fine, with the sweetness being unexpected, but not bad. Some of the calamari was tough, but it was overall good. The calamari came with a sunny side up egg, spam, and loco moco. A scoop of macaroni salad was included with one of the dishes, and it tasted good, but strongly of mayonnaise. The service was fine, though they seemed a little understaffed. Plenty of seating was available at 8am. There was no line. read more

O-M-G!! I drove by here a couple of days in a row and saw all the excitement. I looked it up and yum! It looked so good.. Being that I was staying just around the corner, I planned on coming here for dinner. Boy ol' boy, what a dinner it was! Although I wasn't particularly happy about my $83 bill, I was very happy with my food. I ordered Lobster & Garlic Shrimp (I meant to order steak), Garlic Shrimp & Calimari, and Shrimp Kabobs. F*kn AMAZING! I'll be back before I leave, for sure. They took my order immediately and plates came out quickly. I was amazed at all the different foods they serve here. It is a (permanent) food truck, but a truck that looked like a bus, in blue. There were many tables to sit at and each had umbrellas, which were needed because of how often these little clouds will fly by and rain on you. Overall, a great experience and my tummy is extremely happy! read more

Plenty of shaded seating and the staff has been friendly and welcoming. There are still menu items we'd like to try! read more

Blue Ocean was a recommendation from Dexter at the Hilton on Kuhio. Grateful to Dexter because we enjoyed BOSS more than once during our stay. I first shared the garlic shrimp/lobster combo with my husband. I didn't take a picture of that but it was delicious! The combo isn't cheap but it's perfect to share with two people and I'd say it's well priced for what you get!. There were at least 4 large shrimps smothered in buttered garlic bits and the lobster was tender and easy to pull right out of the tail. The tail was grilled perfectly and both came on a bed of rice with a side of corn and a small amount of salad. We went back a second time for some moco for breakfast. This time we each had our own. the moco came with macaroni salad and rice. I preferred the traditional loco moco but both were yummy! read more

The calamari was rubbery and there was only a couple pieces of garlic shrimp which was decent but honestly the best thing in the meal was the salad which was purely lettuce. Terrible for the price. Honestly can get better anywhere else but here. Expensive for a bad meal. The service was terrible too, she had a scowl on her face while taking our order and looked at us like we had diseases. It used to be packed here but since anywhere is better than here, it was practically empty. Overpriced and not good food. read more

BOMB CRAB AND GARLIC SHRIMP. I have been here in Waikiki for a week and have had seafood from other restaurants in Waikiki and Blue Ocean knocked it out of the park. It was very close to where we were staying (Alohilani resort). Seriously reasonable prices deluxe seafood combo plates (I got a 6 garlic shrimp, snow crab cluster, rice and salad for under $45.) Very welcoming and quick service. read more

I had a hard time picking because there were so many options! The whole side of the building was dedicated to their menu with photographs. I appreciated the photos of the menu because I am a very visual person so it was nice to see and it also helped me select my order. I ordered the Mahi with coconut shrimp- and it was scrumptious! It's hard to go wrong with seafood while being on an island. The mahi was grilled and it had good seasoning and texture while the coconut shrimp was nicely breaded and had a sweet crispy taste. I also tried their Chicken and steak kebabs and that was great too! It was an outdoor establishment with a large open seating of umbrellas, tables and chairs. The service was friendly and efficient. There was a small wait for our food but all good things take time! They accept cards but they prefer cash. We parked in the international market place and walked there which was about 0.35 miles/ 8 minute walk. It's also walking distance to Kuhio Beach, Waikiki Beach and Queens Beach. We went here twice during our visit, I highly recommend trying this place out! read more

Blue Ocean Seafood & Steak - 13. Shrimp Tempura - Food Trucks Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

We took a big family trip to Honolulu last month and needed a place to eat for about fifteen people, three of them small children, within walking distance of our hotel in Waikiki. To make things even more interesting, we planned nothing in advance, and this particular meal was our Saturday night dinner. I was relieved, if somewhat skeptical, when my dad suggested Blue Ocean Seafood & Steak. He'd found it on Google Maps, I believe, and it felt pretty random, with mediocre reviews. To be fair, Blue Ocean met all our needs, and if we had better options, I was not aware of them. The space was kind of ideal for our large, loose party: a food shack with a window for ordering and a plain, casual patio. It wasn't busy at 5:30 on a Saturday, and we were able to walk in and grab two adjacent tables without fuss. No booze, but we were free to bring our own--my dad picked up some Coronas nearby. Service was fast and friendly. There were some crazy forks that broke about as soon as we used them, but otherwise, no complaints about the set-up. The food wasn't great, unfortunately. Blue Ocean has an enormous menu, with every kind of seafood as well as pasta and chicken and lamb. There was even another part of the shack that served pizza, though I didn't see a soul going over there and can't imagine it being any good. This felt like a place that would do better if it picked a specialty and did it well. I got the lobster and shrimp kebab combo, which came, like all the other plates, with choice of rice or fries, salad, and bread. The lobster was solid, definitely the best thing I ate here, flavorful and cooked more or less correctly. The shrimp kebab tasted good but was on the dry side. Not terrible, but not the quality you might hope for from a seafood shack. I ate my lobster and shrimp with rice and some hot sauce, which was provided on request. I also tried some of the calamari, both grilled and fried. The grilled calamari was rubbery, but the fried version was satisfying. My husband made the mistake of ordering fish. His salmon was genuinely awful, maybe the worst thing I've eaten at a place that exists to cook and serve food. Gray and dry, an almost inedible waste of fish. Our kids fared better with their spaghetti and meatballs. I can't say I'd recommend Blue Ocean, but it was there for us when we needed it, and I did enjoy my lobster. It's an easy option if you need to feed several people in Waikiki. Avoid the fish, and you'll do okay. read more
