Let's be clear...to get a 5 STAR review you need a couple things. 1. A memorable experience that is worth telling people about. 2. A desire to come back! 3. RARELY on vacation will I eat at a place TWICE but occasionally, there is such a place and Deez Bowls is now one of them! Deez Bowls is a food truck in a North Shore institution that includes the famous Giovanni's (too buttery for me). You will find food trucks aplenty anchored by Seven Brothers Kitchen and Market. I ordered the combo bowl of Spicy Ahi and Garlic shrimp! So flippin good!!! The portions were generous with 6-7 sautéed shrimp with minced garlic and not overly buttered like other trucks. The Ahi was cubed small enough to fit in a good portion with light fluffy rice and the sauce was flavorful without being overwhelming! Seating is plentiful on this Sunday with picnic tables everywhere and beautiful weather. The aloha service was outstanding with Marte (Mcfly lol) and Aloe taking excellent care of me and making conversation! At the End of the Day this is a mood and taste choice out of the plethora of food trucks. Deez Bowls is a don't miss on your way north if you're driving on H83 and we'll be back since my wife was pissed that she got tacos! read more

Love this food truck. We had the poke bowl and combo bowl of garlic butter steak & shrimp -- both were great portions and absolutely delicious. The shrimp was plump, the steak was cooked perfectly and tender while the poke was fresh. I appreciate both came with [yummy] mac salad because other places charge extra for it. Plus, the lady working there was really nice! read more

Stopped in for lunch with some friends. Love this place. They are very friendly and accommodating. Father and son Ikaika owner makes everyone feel so comfortable while sharing the Aloha Spirit. Their lunch wagon is clean and well protected from flying bugs with protected screens. The food is made to order very fresh and all flavorful. I had steak and shrimp which was very good and big portioned. The big shrimp was peeled and de-veined yet very tasty. The steak was made to order medium rare and well seasoned. They have a pretty extensive menu. I will surely be back on my next visit! Mahalo read more

Been here twice in 3 days-So good!! Their adobo pork belly, steak, and ahi tuna bowls were all delicious. For a few dollars more you can get two meats instead of one. Our favorites are the pork belly and steak but you can't go wrong with any of them, especially if you have a preferred meat or something just sounds good. They were out of the pan seared chicken so looking forward to having that soon. The service is awesome and they really make sure you're getting what you want. It's located in a food truck stop with a bunch of other great spots. They've created a great vibe here and we really don't see going anywhere else for food! read more

Mmm maybe they changed up their poke bowl because this is not what the reviews have described. The bowl I got was just plain tuna with sauce drizzled on top, over rice and lettuce. Nothing special. The fish was on the warmer side. This is one of the worst poke I've had on this trip. And the cashier who took my order didn't know what's on the poke bowl and she had to ask someone. read more

We live in California and we've had our share of Poke. We were excited to try Poke at it's roots, in Hawaii. We literally stumbled on the Sugar Mill, not realizing it was a food truck haven. We all got the Poke book from Deez bowls, and BY FAR, THE MOST AMAZING Poke we've ever tasted. The ahi was the freshest, beautiful texture and taste. The sauce did not overwhelm the fish, not too spicy, just perfect. We had the honor of meeting Sam the owner who was all to happy we were trying his poke, and he told us how it's prepared...from his family recipe over 40 years old. Seriously we couldn't get enough, I'd say this rivals any Poke on the island and beyond! And the food truck camp is such a cool vibe and hang, definitely Italy a local hang but you feel welcome, even as a tourist. Everytime we come back to Oahu we'll be back here! read more

Great little food truck nestled in a food truck area. There are lot of options. This truck in tucked in pretty far in. There is one covered picnic table to use. The service was good. We went around 3 pm so there was no line and the wait was reasonable to get the order. The bowls were good we got a poke bowl and a lechón bowl. Both came with a drink for $20 each - $40 total for a lunch. The iced tea was great and didn't require any sugar. It was refreshing for a hot sunny day. read more

The service was great. Filled up our drinks and brought the food with a smile. Even recommended a few things. The food was good. It was what you might expect from a food truck. The steak was cooked well. It was cooked enough to not be bloody but not enough to make it tough. The rice was a bit undercooked but that might be a preference thing. In general I was satisfied with the food. Not overly though. My family got the poke and they enjoyed it as well. No regrets. The ambiance was a good truck motif so there's that. read more

[WARNING THIS IS NOT A PAID REVIEW] This is the most local cuisine I've had yet! Deez bowls has some of the best cuisine to be found in Hawaii. The owner is a very nice guy who explained the menu to me and other customers while we were looking for a bite. [10/10] service! Poke Bowl [10/10] Honestly I'm not really a fan of ahi tuna but I was sold on this bowl. The house sauce and spicy mayo as well as green onions and onions makes their poke bowl different and taste so delicious! By far one of the best ahi poke bowls I've had. My girlfriend who doesn't even like tuna or raw fish is crushing this bowl too! Will get this every time I come back! I give this a 10/10 because it's that good no Smoked Pork [10/10] Its on the daily special for a reason. From the first bite that there's something serious going on in this pork. Deez bowls has put some passion into smoking the pork with their seasoning. Definitely try this smoked pork as I do not regret getting some for myself. A must have. Fried Fish [7/10] Kind of dry and chunky but does not lack in flavor. I give this a 7/10 because it's not the best and certainly not the worst fish I've had just kinda dry and maybe not my taste. I don't regret getting this but probably won't try again. Overall [10/10] I'm glad I gave deez bowls a try and will be returning when I am in the area. I felt welcomed here as a guest and the food was insanely delicious! read more

I'm not sure how this place has such good reviews. It was probably one of the worst poke bowls I've ever had (not an exaggeration). We ended up coming here because Ry's poke shack was closed. It took 10 mins for our order to be ready when no one was even there. I'm not sure if it's because it was towards the end of the day or what, but when our food came out the rice was hard and the poke was very noticeably cold and it was drenched in so much sauce you couldn't even taste the fish. The biggest waste of $20 and I would recommend steering clear. read more

The shrimp were big and cooked perfectly. Seasoned to perfection. Just the right amount of garlic and the extra sauce made for the best rice. I was happy with the quantity of shrimp too. Definitely a worth it meal in my book. I also got a teriyaki spam musubi to try. Also good. I like how they wrapped it. Just a slight variation from the ones I typically eat. Will definitely be back. I still want to try the salmon. We got in line just at the right time bc when we turned to sit down after ordering there was a long line that had formed behind us. Our food got done quickly and we sat down at the picnic tables to enjoy it. It was busy so we shared a picnic table with another family. Hopefully you don't mind doing that bc space is often limited.

We ordered the Spicy Shrimp and the Shrimp Scampi plates, and neither was impressive. The food came out almost instantly, which proves it is not cooked to order. Because it sits around, the shrimp is incredibly difficult to peel. Anyone who cooks shrimp knows that if you do not peel it right after cooking, the shell sticks to the meat, which was exactly the case here. The Spicy Shrimp had a decent kick, but it lacked actual flavor. The Shrimp Scampi was better but still bland. Honestly, 9 out of 10 shrimp places back home in Southern California make a better plate. To make things worse, the two ladies managing the truck were rude. My wife asked for extra napkins, not realizing some were already in the bag. The worker snapped back, "Are those not enough?" and made her feel super awkward. We also asked for a cup of ice to go with our canned sodas. They flatly refused and told us to ask another truck nearby. Luckily, the other truck owners were much nicer and gave us the ice. Save your time and money. There are much better, friendlier options out there.

We drove up to get there just before noon on a Saturday. It was rainy, so the numbers were a bit light in the area, but there were still thirteen people in line when the truck opened for business. The owner was fun, friendly, and engaging the customers in conversations while prepping the food. There are times when I think some food truck owners take on the role of a short order cook and get annoyed that you don't understand "how" you're supposed to order; that was certainly NOT the case here. You just need to decide if you want a hot or regular sandwich and whether you want bleu cheese or special sauce. We got one hot and one regular, but the chicken is HUGE and two adults can easily share one sandwich. I'm torn, because while we would probably order just one sandwich next time, I also want to support the business and get two. The chicken was as good as everyone told us and had incredible crispy batter. The fries though...those were maybe the best I've ever had.

There was a long line and the wait time was also long to get your food.

Mike's Huli Chicken

Definitely worth stopping in at Seven Brothers Restaurant and or the bakery as well. Back to Mikes, You'll walk up and spot signage plus the yellow signature bus shack. I'd seen Mikes Huli Chicken on an episode of Diners Drive Ins and Dives and Guy said "the skin is as crispy as it gets next to being fried." That never left my memory. This being my next visit since seeing that episode, I had to try it. What did I order? - Mikes Huli Chicken Plate $17: 4/5 Stars - Chicken is a nice half chicken portion, perfectly juicy, nicely slight char taste. Crispy skin? Unfortunately no. - The Mac salad is nice. - Generous serving of rice *** Mikes Huli sauce is delicious! Be sure to find the self serve bottle and the to go sauce cups and get you some extra. You'll walk up and place your order at the window, pay, cash or card, then find yourself a seat. The cashier was simple and quick to the point. No small talk. The seating area within mikes truck is a decent size accommodating roughly 15 to 20 people. Outside, there additional tables as well. Overall, I'd say if you're in the area, give it a try, it will neither blow your socks off nor disappoint. Mikes is a solid Huli Chicken plate. It simply delivers satisfying meal.

Meh. I feel like the quality of Mike's has gone downhill…read more I stopped by yesterday during a trip to the North Shore to get some lunch. I got the #9 plate, which is kalua pork, huli chicken, and I got mac salad. The kalua pork meat itself was fine. Not gristly and not too fatty. However, barely any smoke taste to it and was fairly bland. The huli chicken didn't have crispy skin. It seemed lukewarm like it had been cooked a while earlier and was just sitting. The sauce is amazing and I do think it's delicious with the sauce. Rice was just rice. Meh. Even adding shoyu didn't add much flavor to it, to be honest. The mac salad is extremely bland. I don't know if they need to add some acid to the mayonnaise or more salt, but it was pasty and no flavor. I would honestly skip getting the mac salad next time and get regular salad! That's how bad this mac salad was. Two slices of pineapple on the plate were fresh and flavorful. I did enjoy these. Service was okay. I had asked if they still honored kama'aina discount and was told no. That's fine; I understand not all places offer discounts. I don't know when kama'aina discount stopped being offered, but back in the day I used to receive it when asking. I did notice though that two guys who ordered before me got a "mahalo, braddah" in a friendly tone but I got a terse "thanks." Guess haole girls don't get mahalos even if local. It's just uncomfortable when certain people get friendly, effusive mahalos and others get terse thanks, like I didn't want to be serving you food today. Maybe cause it was Mother's Day and they didn't want to be there? Sure didn't feel like 'ohana today. So many flies around, it made eating uncomfortable. A few fly fans on tables but not at the one where I was seated, so it was basically like constantly shooing away flies and trying to take a bite of food super fast before they came back on my food. Probably I should have taken my food away and gone to the beer garden nearby with fewer flies. Meh. I used to really like Mike's but I will stick to Da Bald Guy and Seven Brothers when I visit the sugar mill in the future.

The shrimp was buttery and packed with garlic flavor and the steak was tender and cooked just right. That sauce soaked into the rice and made every bite better I didn't want it to end. Yeah, you have to peel the shrimp so your hands get a little messy, but that's part of the experience and totally worth it for the flavor. Everything tasted fresh and not rushed. I'd definitely come back again.

I might be a little biased because this is the only shrimp truck I've tried on Oahu but honestly,…read moreI'm not even interested in trying others at this point. I've had shrimp plates on other Hawaiian islands, but this one is still the best imo. The shrimp here are just so flavorful and buttery. Every bite is rich, garlicky, and packed with flavor the kind of dish you keep thinking about after your trip. I like to switch up my order sometimes. Usually I go for the classic shrimp plate, but other times I'll get the combo with steak or squid, which is also really good. Everything is cooked fresh and comes out hot and satisfying. If you're doing the North Shore drive, this is one of those stops you can't skip. For me, it's officially part of the Oahu food tradition now every time I visit, I have to come back.

So so so good !
