Certified broke da mouth! Auntie that run this food truck…read moreshowed all the aloha and let me do a half/half combo plate bc I couldn't decide between the tempura and ahi katsu plate. Tempura was so crisp and ono. Ahi was so fresh and good, the way only Hawaii can do it. I was a dummy and also forgot to get a drink before getting charged for my meal (I believe the minimum for a card is $5?) and auntie said no worries, on the house. 5/5 all around, highly recommend.

Ordering can be done online or from tablet at the store. We liked Grandma's Empanadas best with its delicious ground pork and Puerto Rican spices. Pollo Loco was slightly dry and more one-dimensional. The crust was thin and super crispy. Also tried Guava Quesitos from "Kona Sweets Bakeshop" they had at the counter and were glad we did: guava and cream cheese in puff pastry was match made in heaven. Other goods from "Kona Sweets Bakeshop" are also available at the cafe next door.

Now realize it is not a brick and mortar eatery it is more like a food truck feel. They do have plenty of parking and outdoor picnic style tables. I love it but I don't eat there I only take away. Usually order a plate lunch and take home a whole chicken. Don't know where he gets his chickens but they are the biggest I have never seen lol. The chicken is so large that I use one half for a Randy's Huli Huli Chili. Yummy. The other half I freeze to use later for maybe an enchilada dish or just re heat and serve with rice. Highly recommend for locals (realizing all locals know about Randy's) and certainly worth the while for visitors.

The order came out fairly quickly and as you can see from the pic, its a large portion - I couldnt finish it in two sittings. The chicken was not as crunchy as I would have liked, but it tasted great and was moist and tender inside. The lack of crunchiness may have been my fault since I added a little extra Sriracha on top of everything. I recommend Da Braddahz Grinds and will be back!

The owners are so kind, the staff is energetic and joyful. Excellent customer service, quality drinks, and lovely baked goods and breakfast items. My favorite hot drink is an oatmilk mocha; favorit cold drink is their sweet cream cold brew (they don't do iced drinks) so it's cold, but not iced, which I actually prefer. Their protein balls are robust and wonderful if you enjoy peanut butter and chocolate. Their lemon and blueberry scones are super ono. Hours are daily 4am-10am, which makes it a perfect drive through spot if you're headed to work, or want to grab a treat as your enjoying your weekend! HIghly recommend, you will not be disappointed.

The sauce was tasty, though didn't have any of the pineapple flavor that some Huli Huli chicken has and overall the meat was a bit bland. If you just get a half chicken, they put it in a plastic bag so very hard to eat, especially since it is piping hot. Hot food in a plastic bag is also not a good idea as the plasticizers can leach into the food and none of us need more microplastics in our food! If you can plan ahead, bring your own plate and a knife and fork instead. You will also need to take it somewhere to eat if you want to site down, or like we and many others did, eat it off of your tailgate or hood of your car.

Be prepared for a wait - it was probably near 30 minutes from waiting to order to waiting for our food but it is made fresh to order and you can customize flavors and toppings. The Malasadas are delicious - warm and fresh! The fillings for me were hit or miss - some like S'mores tasted lovely with marshmallows and what I assume was a Nutella filling but others, especially local flavors like Lilikoi tasted very artificial and overly sweet and anything with coconut in it turned to liquid like a coconut oil! Glad I tried them - fresh, warm and hit and miss on fillings
