We ordered the scampi plate and lemon and butter. The scampi was good oozing with butter and garlic. The lemon and butter is plain shrimp with a butter on the side to dip your shrimp. Overall it was okay. Nothing too exciting about it, but that we can say that we tried it.

We ordered food for 11 people, including hamburgers, cheeseburgers, catfish, collard greens, macaroni and cheese, French fries, and cornbread--and everything was a hit! The portions were generous, the food was fresh and flavorful, and there was something everyone enjoyed. The catfish was especially good, and the sides tasted like real home cooking. Feeding 11 people isn't easy, but Lacoy's made it simple and delicious. Highly recommend this food truck if you're in the area. We'll definitely be back before we head back to Michigan!

One of them suggested Lacoy's and since I had read about them through the page, I also wanted to go too! They open at 11:30 and you can drive through this gate, when it's open, into the parking lot. My crazy @$$, drove along the side of the building and went to where they were. The owner, Shawna, told us we needed to wait in the parking lot. LOL! When she said they were ready, we ordered the shrimp and the bbq chicken. Since it was Wednesday, we got the special which came with all the sides. The chicken was sooooooo tender! The shrimp were nice and crispy! Loved the mac n cheese and those greens with the bacon... Soooooooo good! Nice butter corn and cornbread! Oh, and we got lumpia too...and you need to go early or they will be sold out! Shawna also gave a sample of the shrimp and catfish while we were waiting. That was really nice of her. This is one of those not so hidden gems worth driving to! If you're on your way to the North Shore, make a stop and grab some lunch! You won't be disappointed! Mahalo Lacoy's!

While I had gotten some different for lunch, my friends each ordered a plate of shrimp from Jenny's…read moreShrimp. I'm normally not the biggest fan of shrimp, so I don't usually gravitate towards it. But I wish I wasn't so stubborn because the few bites I had of both the Butter Garlic Shrimp and Spicy Garlic Shrimp completely changed my mind. Since I'm not the biggest spice person, I preferred the butter garlic option. The shrimps aren't peeled, but they're butterflied, which makes them much easier to peel. The shell itself is packed with flavor, though, so I recommend sucking it before removing. The rice was flavorful, and the salad on the side was refreshing. I simply regret not ordering a plate of shrimp for myself. I'm a lazy person and don't like peeling shrimp, but this was worth peeling for.

BACKGROUND ON JENNY'S SHRIMP:…read more Jenny's Shrimp Truck began as a small, family-run business with a simple mission: to serve the freshest, most flavorful shrimp on the North Shore. Jenny, the founder, was inspired by the rich seafood culture of Hawaii and wanted to share her love for local flavors with the community. Armed with a secret garlic butter recipe passed down through generations, she set out to create something truly special. In the early days, Jenny's food truck was nothing more than a converted van with a makeshift kitchen, parked along the scenic roads of Haleiwa. She focused on using locally sourced shrimp, ensuring that every plate was as fresh as possible. Word quickly spread about the delicious shrimp dishes, and soon, both locals and tourists were lining up to get a taste. JENNY'S SHRIMP TRUCK MISSION STATEMENT: A Taste of Hawaiian Paradise Nestled in the heart of Haleiwa, Hawaii, Jenny's Shrimp Truck is a must-visit destination for seafood lovers looking for a true taste. BACKGROUND ON VISIT: This was part of our Dole Plantation/Haleiwa tour that we signed up for. Lunch wasn't provided so this was on our own dime. CREDIT CARDS: They're accepted, but they tack on a transaction fee. RESTROOM: There's a restroom next door. AMBIANCE/DECOR: Not much ambiance, but they do have tables and chairs setup in their covered patio. SERVICE: Service was alright. Didn't take long for our food to come out. FOOD OF CHOICE: Garlic shrimp plate which came with rice and a slice of pineapple. Enjoyed the shrimp. It was quite tasty and easy to peel. I had a nice time eating the rice with their signature garlic sauce. SHRIMP TRUCK FOR THOUGHT: I would love to come back to have it again.

Bomb-looking food, but not so bomb-tasting…read more My mom was inspired to place a New Years' Eve order from Kapakahi Grindz thanks to her co-worker, so she texted me to order a 20 pc spicy ahi bomb tray and a dozen pasteles ($95 total). So I did by texting the number, and communication was amazing. I pulled up to the meet-up location in Wahiawa at the designated time, and the order was packaged nicely. I'm sad to say that the spicy ahi bombs were too salty for my family's taste, and the pasteles were too bland. Spicy ahi was frozen, which I actually didn't mind because fresh ahi is really hard to come by these days. However, I don't think that the price was justifiable for the quality. Don't think I'll order from them again, but it was nice to try. 2.5/5.

If you attract mosquitos, spray some repellant, they are brutal found that out the hard way.

It was crunchy. The fries were pipping hot and very tasty. We also tried a plate with some nice poke and coconut shrimp. The food is good quality and hits the spot. The problem was the amount of time it took to make and deliver the food to the customers. There were two people in the truck. It was as if they were cooking one thing at a time. It look at least an hour and there were not even that many people in line waiting. One woman was taking orders and the man was cooking. The woman said it was her first or second day but in the time my husband ordered, my other child and I walked around for twenty minutes looking for other options (I wanted garlic shrimp, and they did not offer that on their menu), I went across the way after our walk, ordered a meal, got my meal, and sat there waiting to eat and it still look half an hour for the rest of the family to receive their orders. It was absolutely ridiculous. As another patron stated on Yelp, perhaps they should have stopped taking orders if they could not keep up. Love the food here, but not sure I would recommend my family coming back next time.

He made conversation with me and let me sample choke stuff while I waited for my food, which wasn't long at all. I got the #3 Hapa Burger (added jalapeños and creamy wasabi sauce) with a side of fries. Let me just tell you... MEAN. The flavor of the dill sauce mixed with the creamy wasabi sauce had a perfect balance of flavors. The patty had a teriyaki glaze which wasn't too sweet or overpowering. You'll definitely be full at the end of the meal. I'd also like to note their fries are my favorite kine fries, shoestring fries. Overall: 5/5 Service: 10/10 I'd come back just to support unks Value: 5/5 Prices were very reasonable Food: 5/5 Not too over powering but not bland at all

They are located in the parking lot across the downtown shopping district of Hilo (in the park down from the KTA store and almost across Sig Zane).

LUAU SQUID - My absolute favorite is the luau squid! It's made with fresh taro leafs stewed for along time with coconut milk and cut octopus. BOMBSHADIGGIDY ONOLICOUS!!! It taste just like the old days where grandma used to use the freshest ingredients to make the family favorites during dinner. A great portion (2 cups) served hot and steaming. You can get this with either poi or rice (get the poi!!!). $7.50 for the combination. Grade: A+ PORK LAULAU - super authentic laulau (taro leafs) steamed with fatty pork, salted fish. Wrapped in taro leafs and steamed for hours. Everything melts together because of the steaming. (Side order $4.00). Eat this with the poi and you have an authentic meal and tons of memories to talk about! Super ONO!. Grade: A! KULOLO - a dessert made of freshly grated taro root, coconut milk, and shreaded coconut. The consistency comes out like a sticky pudding / mochi. Not many places can make this old-time dish anymore. Found it here at the Ono Hawaiian Food Truck and glad I ordered it. You get a 4 x 6 slice of the dessert for $4.50. Well below market value (I've purchased this for double the price at other places). Grade: B+
