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.

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.

Shrimp and chicken kebab plate

Ordered the shrimp and chicken kebab plate yesterday. It was really warm yesterday and I'm not sure if that was a factor with the refrigeration of the food or not. A few hours after eating the plate, got a bad case of food poisoning. Vomiting all night. This is the last time I'll be coming to this establishment.

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!

This was followed up with a crispy, crunchy, awesome potato dish. Not French fries, but better! Finally we split a fancy sounding fish sandwich only to find out it's basically a tuna salad sandwich LOL! OK it was good, but I guess I better read the menu a little better! I found the main dishes quite pricey, but the appetizers and sandwiches were fine - price-wise. The place is beautiful and the service is really good. Definitely worth a visit!

I was staaaarving so for me and baby I ordered: - Cornbread - I love their cornbread. This was my fave of all the dishes we had. - Bone Marrow - This was probably the biggest marrow I've had anywhere. Like choke marrow. Awesome. Alcohol didn't light on the whole plate so only had little bit and baby couldn't have any. Think no bourbon next time. Just sprinkle some salt and it would be perf. - Chopped - All kine goodies in this salad but the dressing was very "nothing." I added some garlic salt when I ate the leftovers and it kicked it up a notch. - Chicken Pappardelle - The pasta was terrible. So thick and doughy. Took away from the chicken which was okay. Ended up dumping the leftover pasta...which was pretty much the whole thing. - Oxtail Mac & Cheese - This was more like an Oxtail Helper (like Hamburger Helper). Very not cheesey. Baby ate some but think she wanted more cheese. Tasted better the next day. Friends had the Prime. The temp on each was given to the wrong person, which needed to be right since 1 person didn't get the roasted pot. The medium-rare one was cold. Like COLD. Strange. Overall think they fell a little short on the food. Some things GREAT, some thing the opposite, so balanced out. Will I go back? Of course, but now I know what not to get.

The tables are usually taken so I just take my drink to go. I ordered a strawberry matcha drink on my first visit and a French Toast latte on my second visit. The second time I went, they didn't know how to make my drink so the girl had to read the ingredients that were listed on their own menu posted on the counter for customers. Maybe hardly anyone orders it or she was new and learning? It did take a while for me to get my coffee. The waiting area is quite small so there wasn't much room for me to go anywhere. Overall, the drinks have been good with a variety of seasonal drinks and specials as well. I'll probably return for my coffee fix as it seems to be one of the few coffee shops in the area open on Sundays. Happy Drinking!

My fiance won a gift card actually 2 of them (from his coworker whom could not get a reservation secured), we knew we had to make the trip over before they officially close. We had multiple dishes, but staff made Kauai prawns and tomato miso black cod dishes on the house since they ran out the Hokkaido scallops. We ordered the short ribs, lobster appetizer, hamachi crudo and lastly sashimi moriawase to finish food palate. Lukki lemon dessert was great way to end to night. Ordered the Milk tea bouquet cocktail while my better half had water ( either way the food coma knock him out cold the rest of the night lol). To be honest, it was difficult to determine which dish was the best because the staff kept quality there despite it being busy every night since they announce the closure. Sashimi moriawase, fish was so fresh, reminded me of my time spent in Hokkaido and Sapporo. Short ribs was soft and rich in flavor. Both me and my fiance liked the lukki lemon dessert, like lemon meringue pie but broken down version. If you have a chance to dine here before closing and got a reservation, definitely will have a lovely dining experience and your stomach will be full by end of the night.
