    Go to the aquamarine truck by the roadside for da good grindz
    Chun M.

    After getting off the plane from Oahu, it was time for lunch and Da Soriano Grindz popped up as the top recommendation on Yelp search. It was a short 5 min hop over from the airport to Da Tambayan Corner and parking in the adjacent lot was easy. All the food trucks are ringed around the central tables and look for the aquamarine Da Soriano truck over by the road. Their food style is Filipino with a Hawaiian twist if you hadn't discerned it from their name. They have a build-your-own-combo grindz menu that you can pick a couple of proteins with rice options or check out the picture menu if you really don't know what to get. My wife went for the combo of Pork Adobo & Garlic Butter Shrimp with Mac & Green Salad, both very flavorful choices. Her friend went double pork action with Chinese Roast Pork Belly & Calamansi Grilled Pork Belly and Pancit Bihon Noodles as her side. The Chinese roast pork belly was as crispy good as any I've seen in any Chinatown. My Seafood Trio had a Miso Glazed Salmon Fillet, 3 Baked Mussels, 2 Shrimp Tempura and topped with Kaboyaki sauce & Thai Chili Aioli. The Shrimp were not the typical panko coated but battered and tasted good drizzled with the 2 sauces. The mussels are topped with a heavy cheesy mayo sauce and baked. Of course, it wouldn't be a Hawaiian plate lunch without a scoop of white rice and a scoop of mac salad. All this wasn't enough and our friend went back to chat with the chef and came back with a double serving of banana lumpia in crunchy spring roll wrap and drenched in heavy syrup. This was an excellent dessert and wrap up to a great lunch. We were so stuffed, we had to skip dinner!

    Build Your Own Grindz Plate ($18) with Salad, Chinese Roast Pork Belly, and Chicharon with Tomato and Onion
    Kristen H.

    Da Soriano Grindz is the kind of food truck that instantly feels like a local favorite - unpretentious, welcoming, and full of personality. Parked just off the road near the airport, it may look humble from the outside, but it's in a lively and bustling area surrounded by other pan-Asian food trucks, replete with hungry travelers, locals grabbing lunch, and Maui workers on their break. There's nothing fancy about the ordering process - you order right at the window, watch the cooks working with fresh ingredients, and then either grab a nearby bench or take your food to enjoy elsewhere. The vibe is Filipino comfort food with a Hawaiian twist: friendly, no-frills, and all about satisfying, flavorful meals that hit the spot after a flight or early morning adventure. Their menu spans across multiple poster boards and features large combo plates that you can easily customize, smaller starters/appetizers, and daily specials like Miki or Oxtail Soup. At around 6:30pm on a Friday night, there was a short line to order, and then I waited about 10 minutes for my food. We ordered their Shrimp and Char Siu Chow Fun ($17) and a Build Your Own Grindz Plate ($18+), which comes with two starches and two entrees. The chow fun was solid if not stellar: it was a generous portion of stir-fried noodles that were surprisingly not too oily (as opposed to Chinese-style chow fun, which is definitely a bit greasier) with tender shrimp and char siu. My Build Your Own Grindz plate consisted of a refreshing green salad with fresh vegetables and a tangy Asian-style dressing, and I opted for Chinese Roast Pork Belly and Chicharon (crispy pork belly) with Tomato & Onion as my two entrees. The Chinese Roast Pork Belly was succulent and fatty, with a lovely crispy top of crackly skin. The Chicharon maintained its crispiness despite sitting in an acidic tomato and onion sauce, and was sliced a bit thinner than the roast pork belly. Both entrees were absolutely delicious, and the Asian salad paired well with the fatty meats. The two of us were completely stuffed after our meals! In terms of price point, Da Soriano Grindz sits in a surprisingly affordable range: think $15-20 for a large entree - exactly where you'd expect for a beloved Maui food truck. You get generous portions and lots of local flair without the premium resort pricing, making it a great stop for breakfast, lunch, or a casual meal on the go. The focus here is simple: hearty, tasty food with aloha energy every time.

    Shrimp chow fun
    Peggy H.

    Noodles are important in many cuisines around the world, for good reason: they're comforting, satisfying, easy to prepare (whether simple or fancy), and delicious. A favorite local noodle dish, chow fun, is one of my "barometer" items to order the first time I go to a place, because how well they make it can be a good indicator of their food quality overall. So when I was near Da Soriano Grindz at lunchtime the other day, I had to try their shrimp chow fun. It did not disappoint: noodles cooked perfectly, tender and flavorful shrimp and veggies, and a mouth watering sauce to complete the dish. It was one of those dishes you almost can't stop eating, but you kinda hate to finish it because then you won't have any more....till next time, that is! Their menu features a wide range of Filipino specialties as well as local faves. Service is prompt and friendly. There's a shaded seating area with plenty of space if you want to eat there, or you can take your treats to go. This small food truck pod can be easy to miss but you should definitely check it out.

    Cute & clean little food truck! We ordered the pork adobo, spicy garlic shrimp and the pork lumpia. All of the food was delicious, but the spicy garlic shrimp was by far the best. Probably the best shrimp I've ever had! (I love shrimp and eat it quite often).

    Grace Y.

    BEST MEAL we've had on the island! Our group randomly stopped by and ordered the crunchy moco and that was truly the best decision we made the entire trip. The crunchy moco is made with a really delicious garlic rice and extra crispy pork belly. Definitely a creative twist on loco moco that makes it so much better! We also tried their spicy garlic shrimp, which is fried in a light batter and a delightful dish.

    Marinated calamansi pork belly (recommend!)
    Maria P.

    Originally based in Lahaina, Da Soriano Grindz relocated to Wailuku after the fires, then moved to Kahului at the Da Tambayan Corner food truck lot, which they proudly own and operate. They are one of my go-to spots at the food truck lot which has a variety of other options. Specializing in Filipino and local-style comfort food, their menu has plenty to choose from--and so far, everything I've tried has been pretty solid. If you have decision fatigue and can't decide, you can build your own grindz and pick two starches and two entrees of your choice. My personal favorite plate lunch? The marinated calamansi pork belly plate which comes with diced onions and tomatoes (a must!). It's perfectly seasoned, tender, and packed with that zesty-salty-sweet flavor combo that keeps me coming back for more. I've also tried their garlic shrimp plate, which my son enjoyed (always a good sign), and the salmon dynamite, which truly hit the spot. It's a great option when you're in the mood for fish. Generous portions, flavorful sauces, and mac salad round out each plate. The food is consistently tasty, and the staff is friendly, which makes for a good experience during my visits. Whether you're already a fan of Filipino flavors or just looking to try something new, I'd definitely recommend giving Da Soriano Grindz a try.

    We wanted to see if there was any Filipino food in Maui and this popped up in our search. We got the Adobo fried rice, pancit, and kare kare. Nothing out of the ordinary. No complaints! Food was good. Fairly priced. This is a food truck btw, and is parked with other food trucks that make this food hall area. very spacious for groups and families.

    HALO-HALO
    Sophie B.

    My husband and I came here for the Halo Halo dessert and it was incredible. The dessert had so many different flavors and textures inside, including tapioca, taro, ube paste, shaved ice, evaporated milk, ube ice cream, and leche flan. The most fun part was trying to determine what flavors/items were in each layer of the dessert cup. The halo halo wasn't overly sweetened and was just the perfect blend of creamy and refreshing.

    Glad to have a chance to visit their new spot in Kahului! Miss them on the westside but glad they're open again. This might be my favorite food truck park to date. It definitely has a vibe. Pic doesn't do it justice, it was way too sunny. But there are hanging flowers, table decorations and a selfie wall. Great spot! Parking can be tough if it's busy but definitely worth a stop in. Lots of shade in the seating area.

    PORK ADOBO
    Rebecca S.

    As someone who is married to a Filipino, proud of the Filipino food I can make, and have had authentic Filipino food from family and the Philippines.... I can say... I never knew adobo could be that good. That was outstanding. The pancit was also great and our toddler ate it up. I did not care for the pork belly calamansi, but I look forward to going back and enjoying more items from their menu. We got this on our way to the airport on our way out. We are going back in a year and I think we will go here first (after our Costco trip of course!)

    Had the most amazing Filipino food. This is one of the best garlic fried shrimp I've ever had.
    Rachael W.

    Had the most amazing Pilipino food at a local food truck stop. This was the most unique flavored fried garlic shrimp I've ever had! It's a must try.

    CRISPY PORK BELLY LOCO MOCO
    Angelica G.

    I finally got my partner to try Da Soriano Grindz... and he ended up going every single day until I told him to stop! That's how good it is! The food is packed with flavor, super satisfying, and honestly hard to resist once you get a taste. We'll definitely be seeing them regularly, maybe monthly, or let's be real... probably weekly! Highly recommend if you haven't tried them yet.

    Phil V.

    Compared to other food in Maui like Da Kitchen or Tin Roof, this place is way better... I'll give it a 5 star given Maui's tame food scene - half pancit and half salad is must get. it gives the plate a well-rounded balance! - Kalbi has good flavor. Tasted fresh. - Garlic shrimp is non-traditional (it's lightly battered and deep fried fyi), but it was still good. - mochiko chicken. Was decent, not freshly fried - calamansi pork. Flavor wise was decent. But just know that this is sautéed pork belly slices, - it is not roasted or crispy pork. It's soft, not crunchy.

Walked up to the truck and saw a standard bbq menu. Noticed everything that you add brisket to was an additional $8 per order. Kinda pricey, but Hawai'i. Ordered a 1 choice with a side and added on a homemade sausage link. Selected the homemade Mac and cheese as a side as that's classic and waited a bit for my food... I don't remember the actual cost but it was around $30 for my plate after everything was said and done... Got my food and found a table. Opened it up and was immediately underwhelmed. The brisket looked dry and was from the day before. The sausage looked mid. The Mac and cheese looked extremely loose. All the items had the slightest smoke... Now these are all preference things and this food wasn't for me. Overall not my type of place to the price. Won't go too far into detail but give it a try if you like bbq'ish...

We had a party of 9 so I wanted to make a reservation ahead of time, but no one answered the phone. I ended up going in to make a reservation. Parking is located in back of the restaurant. We parked in a space marked Hemi's because that used to be the name of the business. They use portable, electric grills instead of the built-in gas grills usually used in KBBQ restaurants. The electric grills don't smoke as much as the gas grills. Many of the items on their menu are pre-cooked. The only thing we ordered that we cooked on the beef brisket. The meat was tender and tasted yummy with the dipping sauce. The Banchan was limited to kim chee, green salad and eggplant, The food was really good! We especially enjoyed the mandoo. The only downside is that prices are a bit steep. I'm glad Maui has a KBBQ!

It was one or two workers running back and forth to fulfill all the orders. One of the auntie's at the restaurant advised us to just take a seat anywhere and that's what we did. The chairs are a bit high, so we weren't seen right away, but once they saw us they got us a menu, water and asked us what we wanted. We chose from the menu: soondubu, kimchi jeon, and kalbi (which we didn't get but I'm sure they were overwhelmed and didn't notice since there was a big party). Just by observing the place and the orders placed by the bigger party, if you look around the restaurant there are other food items that you can order. We didn't know and just stuck to the menu, lol but a note for next time! Again, the seats are very high so we were waiting for our food for quite a while. But once they noticed that we didn't have our food, they apologized and got our food right away! First came the banchans, I really enjoyed them! My favorite was the fishcake and radish kimchi. Kimchi pancake had other vegetables mixed in, not just kimchi. I wasn't expecting the other veggies, but it was good nonetheless. Then the grill and meats came. It is a portable grill and each table has an extension cord to plug the grills in. Once the uncle came to our table, he got us started with the grill and meats and cooked for us a bit! The attentiveness and effort was there and we really appreciated that. We then got our soondubu. It was very warm, refreshing and not too spicy. Our once empty table was now filled with banchans, sauces, meats, and lettuce! Once all our food came, the nice auntie came over and apologized again for the long wait for our food. She had said she would give us the kimchi jeon as a "service" which kinda means "it's on the house" as an apology. We understood the busyness with the restaurant and short staffed workers, but we're grateful for the effort and attention they had once they realized. Overall we enjoyed our experience here at O BBQ! We left full and satisfied, but not over bloated! I know Oahu has all you can eat KBBQ, but all you need is some good food, good meats and good company to enjoy KBBQ on Maui! We are glad we chose to dine in and try this new spot on Maui. We'll be coming back again!
