    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.

    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.

My top two favorites are pastele stew and the guava chicken katsu. Pastele stew is really good, I would recommend to anyone who has not tried this type of stew. It's not very common and I'm pretty particular about the taste. They do it very well. The guava chicken katsu is also equally addictive even when it's cold. My former favorite was the smoke meat. I sometimes buy all three so that I can get it over $50. They give a discount with American savings debit card and give you $10 back. Took a friend there who has the loco moco and he was very impressed by the size and quality of the food. I haven't been able to try that yet cause I'm still stuck craving my top three. I've tried the coconut cake and it's ok. Also tried the candy pork jerky. It has a more pure flavor which is ok though kinda pricey. So I would say you should try those for yourself and decide. Eating in is very nice and clean. The staff serving are always very warm and welcoming. They serve a good mix of locals and visitors. Soon to have a bar. Going to be an awesome place to hang out. Hopefully it doesn't get to crazy crowded. But if it does, they deserve it. Tip. Freeze the pastel stew and bring it back to Oahu so you can enjoy between maui trips.

Our Ohana and family friends have been eating here for years. They serve Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner. If you're looking for a place to have a small gathering or celebration, they do catering and had a small party near our table (we were told to be quiet during a prayer for that party which we respectfully did). Our family of 7 ordered a variety of food. My nephew is Vegan and there was a Veggie Stir Fry he ordered with Tofu. My Brother in Law who is on the pickier side and likes it "simple" got Beef Teriyaki with Macaroni Salad. And my mom and niece love their Filipino food so mom ordered a Tamarind Soup with Shrimp and Vegetables called Sinigang and my niece ordered a Peanut Sauce dish called Kare Kare. My dad, sister and I stick to our favorites. He got his usual Baby Back Ribs (which I didn't get to picture), my sister got Sautéed Mahi Mahi with Lemon Caper Sauce and I got my usual Local Favorites Combo that had the most tender and savory Beef Teriyaki and crispy Mahi Mahi with Tartar Sauce on a bed of Cabbage. The Molokai Sweet Potato is a must when you get a side but this time, I did crave some greens so I opted for a side salad with Papaya Dressing. Your Meal isn't complete without Dessert! And Filipino Ice Dessert I might add...Halo Halo (which literally translates to "mix mix"). Being the true Fil-American that I am, I don't like to "Mix Mix" because I prefer my Ube Ice Cream in tact lol. I explained this to my Brother in Law from the Mainland who also said this is the first Purple anything he's ever eaten haha! But this is a refreshing ice dessert to end the meal since it has fresh cantaloupe, avocado, coconut, banana, and jellies, and the ice is creamy with an evaporated and condensed milk mix. If you want to "mix mix" let your inner Filipino out! Our visiting family had a great time catching up and enjoyed our yummy meal together. The Filipino aunty servers are always top notch and serve your food with Aloha. We probably only waited 15 minutes or so for the food as well which is always appreciated especially when hungry.

They've been part of the island's food scene for over 12 years now, and I still remember their off-the-beaten-path spot on Hobron Avenue in Kahului. You would have never guessed there was delicious food being served up there, but those who knew, knew. These days, you can find them in Kahului parked at Da Tambayan Corner on Lono Avenue, or sometimes popping up out at Ho'okipa. Now, full disclosure -- I don't eat raw fish, so I can't personally vouch for their poke bowls, but that's what they're known for and I've had a number of friends and family enjoy it. What I can vouch for, though, is their fried poke -- perfectly seasoned ahi cubes, floured and fried, served over rice and lettuce, and drizzled with a creamy mayo aioli. Get it hurricane style for extra sauce and furikake seasoning -- it's delicious and gives it an extra boost as once in a while it's on the drier side. Another favorite is the poke bake, which is just as satisfying and generously portioned. Started getting this recently and it hits the spot. Highly recommend either dish, especially if you're like me and prefer your fish cooked. And whatever you do, don't skip the furikake fries -- curly fries topped with aioli and furikake. SO good. Beyond the great food, my team has worked with Like Poke for company events, and they're always a hit. Friendly service and consistent quality eats that keep people coming back -- they're a favorite among locals for a reason.

Maybe a Hawaii thing, but I tip on service, so being expected to tip when placing an order automatically makes me tip lower since I don't know what to expect. But left cash after.
