More like one hundred flavors of happiness. I was stoked, cannot even tell you how good it felt. So many options, all fresh, all ono. Service? Straight aloha spirit, bra people genuinely happy to see you. Feels classic, local, yet modern at the same time. You're surrounded by all this resort-style flash, and then bam you hit these trucks, and it's that perfect blend of island flavor and modern taste. Pure stoke, bruh.

You can just feel it--and yes, confirmed: actual Mexican folks running the place, so you already know the food isn't playing around. Everything was insanely tasty and felt super authentic. Like the kind of tacos that make you pause mid-bite and rethink every other taco you've had before. Bonus points for the sauce bar--lowkey my favorite part. Nothing like standing there debating life decisions while trying every salsa like you're on a flavor quest. Easy 5 stars. I'd come back again and again... and probably embarrass myself at the sauce bar every single time. Service took a little while because there's only one guy cooking but it was well worth the wait.

I was in the mood for tacos so I ordered one Al Pastor "Pork" taco and the Shredded Beef Birria tacos. They were both very tasty and I would say "on par" with tacos I've had on the mainland! I would go back again the next time I'm in Maui.

We ordered the blackened ahi plate and the lobster and shrimp. The food took a while (about 10-15 minutes), but it was totally worth the wait. Everything was super tender and tasted really fresh. The ahi had a nice kick -- a bit spicy but in a good way. Ordering was easy, and they called my name loud and clear when it was ready. It was a nice touch that they ask if you want chopsticks or a fork. I had such a great experience that I came back in the evening and ordered a ribeye, and man, was that the best ribeye I've had in a while - the meat was super tender and filled with flavor. Their $26 ribeye tasted better than some $60+ steaks I've had at fancier restaurants and I didn't even have to dress up for it!

I counted 10 food trucks surrounding a common seating area of blue picnic tables, there are even more food trucks close by. I randomly picked Ono Teppanyaki. It looked fine and I could see they accept credit cards, not all places do. My choice was their NY Steak and it was cooked to perfection. It sat on some shredded cabbage and the container included a zucchini and onion mix and a scoop of white rice. Two tiny containers of sauce were included which was not enough, you can buy more (I didn't). We were all very pleased with our food truck fare.

Five years ago I was so impressed that when I came back, I had it on my must eat list!…read more I had intended to eat here much earlier during the trip, but the Kona storm had different plans. So it was again the meal right before going to the airport to go home and the gate was closed, but I saw people eating inside so I did what I would not do In DC, which is get out of the car and just ask if it was open. I wouldn't do that In DC because it's just a little scary here. And a nice people called out to Ola the chef and he opened the gate for us!! This time it felt extra special. It was like eating with a dear old friend and come to find out Ola was living in Columbia Heights just before the pandemic. (We are frequenters of Columbia heights!) We really felt spoiled and cared for here. He whipped up an amazing bed of salad for both of us. The greens here in Maui are just so fresh and the flavors are so good and of course we topped it with mahi mahi either grilled or taco style. He also gave us coconut water and a smoothie and fresh papaya which I told him I only eat on the island, which is true because it doesn't taste as good anywhere else that I know. What a way to end a trip with a flood and power outage in the middle of it. When troubles come later at home, which they will, I will think back fondly and give things for the experience we had here. And there was so much food that I was blessed to take the food on the airplane which served as my main meal (bc I can't eat any of the things that is on the plane sadly with my limitations. Delta loves to serve things with lots of cheese or dairy.) When it's not too windy, sitting outside under the tent is a lovely way to enjoy. I hope I can be back in less than five years to enjoy Ola's food at Ula Ula again. I don't know why they don't have more reviews but after we came in, was glad to see more people come in through. I really think so highly a food trucks in general in Maui, but this is definitely a top winner and a true gem!!

I too was that person and Honolua Farms was never listed in any articles that I read but it out performed every other banana bread that I had tried throughout my trip. This was by far the BEST and my favorite banana bread in all of Maui. If you like coconut this is the place for you. The edges of the bread are caramelized giving it extra sweetness and topped with coconut shavings. This stand can be quick to miss if you're driving too fast but it's in a very cute area with a lot of nature that you can walk around in across the street and visit the locals (aka the chickens) that roam around.
