    My friends and I are visiting Hawaii and wanted to try some dessert so we stumbled upon this place. This dessert cart had basically fried mochi balls with different flavor syrups which was pretty different. The textures are very crunchy and the inside was very soft. The syrup were a little bit lackluster however I enjoyed the condensed milk the best. the service is pretty quick and the owner is really nice. She explained all the options of sweets because we were new to the cuisine.

    This spot is a bit hidden near the airport, tucked among a bunch of food stalls. I stopped by on my way to catch a flight and honestly wish I'd found this area sooner. The food I'd been having beforehand was pretty heavy, so it was such a relief to enjoy something light and delicious. The mochi was chewy and full of flavor, and the dipping sauces were heavenly. I'd definitely come back and check out the other food trucks too.

    So I've driven past the Maika'i Market a couple of times now & finally designated a time to stop. Which I'm so glad we did, their set up is hella cute. Plus I'm always a fan of trying out new locations. Food trucks are always packed with some amazing flavors & you'll get to run into some of the coolest people. So thank you to everyone who helped contribute to my mini spur of the moment photo shoot. Not only did I enjoy all my goodies that I picked up on my first trip here. But I also enjoy being able to share these moments with others who might not have known this was here either. Dee's Poi Mochi had my Ube fix times two, Ube mochi with Ube sauce to dip in. The only way I can describe it is pure happiness. I just love the gooey texture of biting into the mochi. Plus that drip when you dip into the sauce it even has a shine to it. If I could make a request on something I'd like to try that isn't currently on the menu it would be matcha mochi & matcha dipping sauce. Until next time. XOXO, ChelsieFletcher

    Interesting - worth checking out. Poi Mochi are little round fried dough balls made from poi and rice flour. You dip them in a sweet glaze. Dessert item - but not overly sweet. Local business

    Even the hot day when I was visiting Maui but love to have mochi and found this place. Many options for the dipping sauce, got original coconut and caramel flavored both of them were delicious. The service was excellent and friendly. Fresh made by order so have to wait a little bit but worth the wait. Crispy outside and soft inside. Perfect texture and delicious. Recommend to try strawberry flavor, it was amazing. Nice food truck area with the table and shades.

    One of the most unique desserts I've had in a long time! I've tried so many donuts, mochi donuts etc.. Worth a visit for sure!

    Their signature Poi Mochi was amazing to have, and all of their choices to use for dipping with it are just as flavorful - a must-have if you catch them at an event or the Sunday Night Market - Miguel Morales Photography

    Super friendly lady! We did the 8 pc (ube, strawberry and poi) and an order of the fried twinkies. I would say the ube is a sure choice. The strawberry just tasted like it was strawberry candy instead of fruit strawberry. The poi was the first time I tried poi... figured fried has to be the way! It wasn't bad!

    I went to visit Maui and this place was recommended by a friend so I decided to try this out. It is a food truck located by a gas station plaza and this place has a few tables so I was able to sit down and enjoy these mochis. The owner was so so sweet and explained the menu to me without even asking!! I'm so glad I did try this place because Ohohohoh this place is so good! I never had deep fried mochi until I tried this place. This is a hole in the wall spot and it was so fire! All mochis are made to order so it was hot and fresh when I got my order. I have tried all 4 flavors (Strawberry, Ube, Poi and Chocolate Brownie), and my personal favorite was the strawberry flavored! I suggest getting a guava sauce on the side because that sauce tasted sooo good w the mochis!!!! Card payment is accepted~

    Deep fried strawberry pb&j and the poi mochi, don't forget the sauce (not pictured)! lol

    Okay first off, I wish I took a picture of the truck.. they're covered in cute stickers and trinkets! The lady greeted us so kindly, gave us some information on the food and not one lie was told. She told us the sauces go with every flavor of mochi and omg it was so good! We got all the flavors of mochi (poi, strawberry and ube) along with the caramel sauce and pog sauce. They were all so good that it made me forget about the deep fried pb&j I got lol definitely will be back!!

    DELICIOUS!!! All of the mochi is made to order so everything is super fresh. Ordered poi, ube, lychee mochi with white chocolate coconut, POG, and ube sauce - all of it was amazing. Definitely check this place out if you're in town!

    I tried poi mochi for the first time at the Maui County Fair a.k.a. Maui Fair years ago and always made sure to stop by the booth even if it means waiting in a 45 minute line. So when I saw that I could get poi mochi from Dee's, I kept checking their IG and even tried looking for them in Lahaina to no avail two years ago. I was determined to track them down this year at the Maui Sunday Market. No line since we were there so early so we got a dozen, half poi and half ube with the POG and guava sauce. The poi mochi on its own didn't quite measure up to the ones at the fair, which are great and addictive on its own, while this one needed that dipping sauce. Overall, it's still great having Dee's to satisfy our cravings especially since the fair had been cancelled these two years.

    Fried Oreos n mochi mix

    Deep fried Oreos so good. Can never go wrong with that. The mochi was also tasty! The I've mochi actually didn't have much flavor to it but the dipping sauce provided the flavor. Nice little snack to share.

    Dee's Little purple stand! So cute and great music and vibes

    On my first trip to Maui, I was excited to try as many local food spots as possible, and Da Soriano…read moreGrindz ended up being one of the highlights of the entire trip. I was immediately intrigued by the calamansi pork -- an item I had never seen it on a menu before. One bite and I was hooked. The pork was tender and flavorful, and the bright, citrusy calamansi added a unique tang that made the dish completely unforgettable. It was so good that I'm still thinking about it after coming home. We also tried the pancit noodles, pork sisig, and mochiko chicken, and every dish was excellent. The pancit was packed with flavor, the sisig was gelatinous (fir those who are into it), and the mochiko chicken was crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and impossible to stop eating. For my first visit to Maui and my first time trying Da Soriano Grindz, this food truck set the bar incredibly high. If you're visiting Maui and want amazing Filipino food that's a little different from what you'll find elsewhere, don't skip this spot. The calamansi pork alone is worth the trip.

One of the owners, Sharon, took our order and she made us feel welcomed. The location had ample parking, located in an easily accessible food truck pod which was clean and inviting. Ambiance was low key and fun.

    Well, sadly I didn't take a picture. I stopped in this past weekend and opted for this truck…read moreamongst the crowd. I was a little hesitant because I didn't look up reviews and being so far from the Caribbean was a hint a caution. But let me tell you what, this truck delivered. Abiki was such a kind, generous woman. Her aura was matched by the food. I opted for the special of chicken curry. The chicken included two very large drums, a thigh and several small potatoes. I chose the rice and beans as the side component. The spice was perfectly balanced. Just enough to be present, but not overpowering for a standard guest. I'm obsessed with spice, so it was fortunate that the plate came with a small cup of a fantastic sauce. It seemed to be more habanero driven, but I cannot be too sure of that. The chicken was absolute perfection. The potatoes fell apart as I chewed them and I think I'm going to dream about them for many years. I don't know if I'll ever get a chance to try this place again, but I sincerely hope so. It is tough to find a mix of food and person as lovely as this location has.

    Quite possibly one of the most underrated food trucks. Don't sleep on this one folks!…read more AbiKi's is one of the few Caribbean food options on the island and I think the only option in Kihei. They've got that hot and spicy Caribbean flavor infused into dishes like empanadas, nachos, curry and oxtail stew (available on Fridays and Saturdays only), and more. My husband spontaneously ordered the chimichurri burger one day and while I didn't know what to expect at first, man that burger was mighty delicious! The beef patty is topped with chimichurri sauce and paired with lettuce, tomato, grilled onion, cheddar cheese, chimichurri aoili on a brioche bun. It's burger heaven! Flavorful and moist, it was devoured in no time. It also comes with sweet potato fries and a side of sauce. I don't know if the sauce is for the fries or the burger, but it pairs extremely well with both. Just give your burger a little dip -- SO good. All in all, this burger ranks pretty highly in my list of tasty burgers. We'll definitely be back again to try their other Carribean dishes!

We have tried quite a few of the trucks and there were long lines and I was hungry so we drifted over to Kaipo's as they didn't have much of a line. Staff were ready for a laugh with us and we ordered the Shrimp Dynamite and the Rib Eye. They were quick to cook em up, just long enough for us to buy some pineapple lemonade from the stand next door (Wailemi). The food was MOUTH WATERINGLY GOOD. I cannot understand how they didn't have a long line!! People are missing out here! My Shrimp Dynamite was served in a small container, full of melty mushroomy goodness, with crunchy courgette, shrimp cooked to perfection and a creamy sauce on top. It wasn't as hot as I like, but I only deem something spicy when I can't feel the front of my face and steam is coming out of my ears so perhaps it is spicy enough for the general public. Nevertheless it was DROOLWORTHY, so good I had to share a single piece of courgette with my husband, but that was all he was getting! No more, Nada, nope. All mine! Hubbs didn't take long to demolish his with gusto, and he was 110% satisfied with dinner. Meat was cooked just right. We liked the scoop of macaroni salad, and the green salad with mustard dressing and scoop of rice that came with each dish. All were delicious and complimentary to each other. Very filling, very satisfying and totally DEEEELICIOUS. If you visit this roach coach park you have to try Kaipo's. It is one of the best there and you don't have to wait!
