    Great place. Everything is made to order but it only took about 5 minutes. Spicy food was very spicy! But good!! Romantic and fun outdoor seating area.

    Thai iced tea w condensed milk

    Some of the best Thai food I've ever had. I got the pad thai medium spice with chicken, My sister got the green Thai curry with mahi mahi (my favorite) the service and staff were amazing, attentive and kind. The ambience is chill and the bench by the window corner seats are really vibey. It's very chill in there late at night, with some swanky jazz music. We'll be going there for the 3rd time tomorrow

    Papaya salad

    I drive down to Koloa every two weeks for an appointment and this Thai spot is my highlight. It's my favorite food on island. I get the same thing every time. Papaya salad, spring rolls and an extra side of peanut sauce. Sometimes the mango sticky rice if they still have it. It's my favorite salad ever!! And best home made rolls ever. You can taste the quality of the food is so fresh and everything made from scratch. Thank you for providing such wonderful food for our island. I would eat here everyday if I lived closer!

    Chicken fried rice

    Incredible Thai food truck! Still thinking about the spring rolls. They were so good I came back a second time just for them. All the dishes were nice and fresh and had a very vibrant flavor. I came here because my sister wanted something simple but i ended up ordering spring rolls and Thai tea for myself. Safe to say everything impressed. The service can run a little slower mostly because everything is made to order. Thai tea (not pictured): I really appreciated that this one wasn't overly sweet and I could actually taste the notes of the tea. If you're looking for a sweet bomb there's plenty of other places but if you're looking more to tickle your sweet tooth this would be the drink. 8.5/10. Spring rolls: The star of the show. Perfectly fried with a nice crunchy outside that doesn't compromise the delightful noodles and veggies inside. Don't skip on the sauce as it adds a nice bit of sweetness. So good I returned the next day for another order. 9.5/10 Chicken fried rice: Before you get on about this being basic there's something to be said for doing the small things right. The chicken was generous, the veggies cooked well, and the sauce hits all the right notes delivering familiar with well balanced flavors.

    green curry with chicken

    Craving Thai food truck in Kauai in same location as Chalupa's and Monster Sushi food trucks. Ordered, paid by credit card, and waited 20 minutes for our meals to be ready at the food truck Craving Thai. The $13.50 chicken pad thai came with a generous amount of sliced white chicken, over rice noodles, bean sprouts, green onions and crushed peanuts. Ordered spicy, but the orange sauce was very bland. Noodles stuck together, tasting like the boxed $2.85 Thai Kitchen pad thai kits you buy at supermarkets. Could have used more bean sprouts and green onions. Salad on the side came with a spicy vinaigrette sauce The $13.50 green curry came with sufficient white chicken, shredded bamboo shoots, carrots, peas, yellow bell peppers and too soft overcooked eggplant. The sauce was thinner than I'm used to -perhaps they didn't use enough coconut milk. Very spicy just the way I like it. Came with a scoop of white rice on the side. Would order again. The $13.50 eggplant came with lots of sliced chicken, sliced eggplant, onions, carrots, and bell peppers in a delicious thick sauce. Scoop of white rice on the side. Would order again. Wife's sister ordered the $13.50 chicken satay. The dish was 100% chicken, without vegetables. Peanut sauce too sugary for me. We cooked brown rice in our timeshare, as wife doesn't care for white rice. Serving portion, amount of chicken, and quality of food comparable to Bangkok Happy Bowl 2 miles away, although the restaurant Pad Thai noodles better with more egg. Both take credit cards. But $13.50 here compared to $21.95 at BHB. At 430pm Tuesday you were SOL if you wanted the $6.95 Mango sticky rice, $9.95 Green Papaya salad or $9.95 Spring Rolls(2).

    Food is great and I often get lunch here however the pricing has gone up too much that I can no longer go as often as I like. I would recommend their curry with extra rice as they do give plenty of. Their Thai basil dish along with Tom aloha soup is also delish

    Outstanding food. One of our favs on the island. Peanut sauce sate and the crispy chicken. So good

    Absolute gem of the food truck!…read more It will take some time to get your food as they only have one or two people taking orders and cooking. But it is well worth the wait! I ordered the vegetarian option and was blown away by the flavor. Also, do not miss the elote! Seating is limited to two small tables. But people vacate as soon as they're done eating and we did not have any problem finding a seat. Highly recommend this place!

    The BEST Mexican food on Kaua'i, no lies!…read more We got the breakfast burritos at 1pm on a Wednesday. We parked on the dirt next to the skincare clinic--make sure to be past their sign/not inside the clinic's parking lot. Taco Libre is located in a lot with other food trucks, including Aloha Always which has the best açaí bowls. The lady working at the truck was super sweet and friendly, she recommended half al pastor and half carne asada for the burritos, and they did not miss! The tortilla had a beautiful grill on them but still soft, the cheese inside the burrito was ooey gooey and the meat was moist and flavorful with no fatty/chewy bits. The burrito was a great size and served with side of rice and beans. Both their red sauce and green sauces were delicious, I didn't find them spicy but some might. They also had pickled red onions and pickled jalapeños by the sauces and they were a tasty addition to our meal. Plenty of seating available all around the lot, Taco Libre has its own family style seating right next to their truck. We can't wait to come back and try more dishes from this food truck! Don't forget to ring the bell if you liked the food! :D

I ordered the shrimp summer rolls and three chicken satay skewers with a peanut sauce. I also ordered the tapioca dessert as a sweet treat. My in laws ordered the shrimp pad Thai. My summer rolls were awesome. They tasted fresh and came with a dipping sauce. They had plenty of shrimp inside!! The chicken skewers were also good, lots of flavor but seemed a little dry without the peanut dipping sauce. My In laws liked the pad Thai but mentioned they wish it came with more shrimp. The tapioca pudding with coconut milk was really good and refreshing after a long day in the sun. The wait time was only about 15-20 minutes and there were a few picnic tables outside to sit at and wait for our food. The lady at the window was very nice!
