Fish tacos !
Macall P.

I got the fish tacos multiple times while visiting! It's inexpensive and filling! So delicious. Also the y are super nice. Great service and atmosphere.

Food Truck

Best food truck in Waikiki! Got everything you need! Great service! Lots of seating and good vibe! Don't sleep on this one!

Garlic shrimp and bbq chicken plate. Heinz bbq sauce nothing crazy or local tasting
Mason W.

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!!!

Eat local! Spam for the win! We stopped by for a quick breakfast. It was fun. Wow! What a menu.

Turkey sausage breakfast
Steve S.

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.

Loco moco with mac salad $15 (oct 2025)
Kelly L.

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.

This was on the door of the place.
Andrea S.

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.

Spicy Ahi Bowl
Ron B.

Fast efficient service with a smile! Many dishes to choose from and all of them have an authentic flavor. Spicy Ahi Poke bowl was tangy and very spicy! A great light dinner or snack! Food truck vibe!

52. Calamari Shrimp Kebab
Abigail C.

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!).

Lobster and 9. Garlic Shrimp
Bridgette R.

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.

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.

Fried Calamari Moco
Fabian L.

I've visited this place four times during my trip. The food is amazing, and the outdoor seating area is particularly nice, especially at night. This restaurant is just a few blocks north of Waikiki Beach. One day, we ordered food and walked to the beach to watch the sunset. Don't hesitate to stop here at all definitely worth it.

They were steps away from the Vive Wakiki Hotel. FYI-horrible and overpriced food. Fish overcooked and dry. May be glad that you cannot find them!

Last week it tasted like it had fish sauce in it with spices and garlic, etc...tonight it literally tastes like bbq seasoning mixed with chipotle seasoning and chili onion. I'm not writing this review to bash this shrimp truck because I think they are very nice but more so as constructive criticism...to hopefully keep their recipe consistent. People want the flavor of Garlic shrimp without having to go to the north shore. These other seasonings just didn't cut it for me:(

We had their poké the last time we visited Hawaii and counted the days until we came back for more. On this trip, it rained a LOT and 5 Star was closed most of that time, but we were able to sneak in during some dry spells between downpours. You have a choice of 3 sizes for your poké bowl with 1-3 flavors based on ahi tuna and salmon in mild & spicy flavors (garlic shoyu, ginger-scallion miso, sweet yuzu, spicy mayo & wasabi shoyu) and you can customize it with a few toppings. My favorite combo is the ginger-scallion ahi paired with spicy mayo salmon. The ginger-scallion reminds me of the Chinese sauce used with chicken. The marinated cubed pieces of fish come over a bed of rice with seaweed salad and garnished with fresh scallions & crunchy fried onions. It's one of the most refreshing & delicious meals we've ever had in Hawaii!

They're located in Kuhio's food hall. This place was popping at 8PM on a Saturday night…read more I ordered the Chee Hoo combo which came with beef brisket, baby back ribs, smoked sausage, and short ribs. It was ~$30 and easily shareable with 2-3 people. Everything tasted great and I loved the smokey flavor and bbq sauce. Beef brisket and short rib were kinda tough and chewy. It came with three sides so I got cole slaw, potato salad, and Mac and cheese. Cole slaw and Mac and cheese were solid; Potato salad was just alright. They also gave one warm bun too. The reason I gave 3 stars was because service was extremely slow. It seemed like they were short staff and had one person at the cash register AND getting the food. He would take a few orders, and then grab the food. When I arrived, he was grabbing food for multiple folks so then I stood there waiting like 15 just to place my order. Then when he restarted and took my order, he took like 5 more orders before grabbing the food so then I waited even longer for another 15 min. That's 30 min of waiting! Also he wasn't serving food in the order that orders were received so it felt actually felt even longer. There needs to be a better system! Surprisingly he did a employee discount on my order. Not sure if it's because it was close to closing time. Btw they charge extra if you order to-go because of the supplies for packaging. I think food is alright but wouldn't return and wait that long for bbq.

It's a grab and go type place. There's normally always a line but it moves quickly. We usually would go at least twice during our trip.

There are many different type of selections but my fave is the classic teriyaki spam musubi. You cannot go wrong! I also really enjoy the spicy cod roe rice ball. They also sell some cute bags and other spam related items. Definitely worth checking out when on the island!

Took a while even with only 7 or 8 people in line about 15+ min to get to the cashier but they are quick to finish your order in about a couple minutes once you order. All things considered I'm going to go out on a limb from most other reviewers and go 4.4 stars. 5 stars for my non-expert opinion on the Musubi but the ball and poke bowl were not 5-star worthy and hole in the wall doesn't earn bonus stars in my book.

Nothing against Waikiki Chicken in Paradise, but I'm not going to lie - I had no idea the mini food…read moretruck park they're located in even existed, let alone had them on my list of bookmarks. However, after having to abandon our original dinner plans, we were no less intrigued after randomly stumbling across this place. While they may not have been our first choice for dinner, coming here was far more appealing than eating fast food or at the nearby IHOP! Although seeing so many folks at this mini food truck park may have been what caught our attention, it was the boxes of fried chicken on nearly every table that swayed us to try Waikiki Chicken in Paradise in particular. After skimming the menu, it wasn't hard to see why they were such a popular choice - everything on it sounded great. Granted, that's not overly difficult when there are only eight items to choose from, but tough to argue with the likes of fried chicken loco moco, fried chicken curry rice, fried chicken sandwiches, chicken & croffle, and fish & chips! Since we saw how big the portion were and didn't want anything too heavy (read: sadly, no loco moco or Japanese curry), we opted to split a FRIED CHICKEN RICE PLATE ($16.95) which came with a Fried Chicken Cutlet over White Rice with Mac Salad & Green Salad. Funny enough, despite already having a sense of how much food they give, I was still surprised by the generous portion size. As for how it all tasted, this was great. The breading on the chicken reminded me of Popeye's (though, without the spice), the batter was crispy, and the chicken itself was rather moist. As for the sides, the mac salad was pretty good, but the salad was a little heavy on dressing. If there was one thing I could change about our order, I think I'd want to see how it would taste with a sauce or glaze. At the very least, I'd definitely go with a different dipping sauce, like their Pineapple Ginger, Lilikoi Mayo, or Guava BBQ, as the Honey Mustard we went with tasted a bit generic. Of course, we could've solved both problems if we had gone with the Fried Chicken Loco Moco or Fried Chicken Curry Rice instead! I guess I'll just have to wait until the next time I'm in Waikiki!
