    Golden Hour is located in the same parking lot of the Kaka'ako Farmer's Market, but thankfully they're open throughout the week. They share the lot with other food trucks, and there's plenty of parking and seating options. I stopped by with a few friends and thankfully did not have to wait long for our drinks. We tried their seasonal drinks that had orange blossom, one with matcha and one with espresso, and boy were they creamy AND refreshing! The edible flowers were an added bonus, making the drinks very pretty.

    I am obsessed with the coffee here!!! When I tell you it was tasty and that coconut whip was sooo yummms. The worker is so sweet and friendly. She made my drink super quick. She has all kinds of drinks from coffee to matcha to teas and even breakfast sandwiches. The cups are one size. My coffee came out to $9 something. This place is located in the fisherman's wharf. She is right at the edge, the yellow trailer. Plenty of seats to enjoy your coffee and relax.

    Good matcha, quick service, & good atmosphere. Lots of places to sit and enjoy your matcha, as there are some other food trucks around. I tried the strawberry matcha latte with oat milk & it was delicious. Will definitely be back to try more drinks!

    Really stumbled upon this coffee stand by chance. I was in dire need of coffee and actually thought this coffee stand was another one I go to, but I was mistaken. I had a nice chit chat with the owner (I'm sorry I never got your name) and found out a few things! They aren't only open on Saturday's for market but one can drive through and they have a little window Monday through Friday to get coffee! All the parked trucks, she kindly told me are regulars there also Monday through Friday. So business as usual for them not only for Saturday market!! This was mind blowing to find out after how many years?? They have different coffees they offer. The price is great and the coffee I got was delicious. You can add different flavored syrups I believe, I just didn't ask. It's such a cute little shack and the coffee was delicious and better yet, the views! You can stare out into the ocean and just enjoy your cup of coffee or take it to go! Super fun and I am definitely happy to be a return customer. She was actually VERY friendly unlike other coffee stands that I have gone to and aren't as pleasant.

    Barista on the go... Found this cute trailer as I was exploring Kailua Lokahi Market and noticed that it was One Bikini Barista as I've seen them at The Street Food Market which is home to several food trucks as well occupying the former Fisherman's Wharf location so you know I was surprise to see a pop up here in Kailua. So excited to give them a try what really caught my eye was "The Cheeky" lol which is a Lilikoi Matcha Lemonade that sounded quite refreshing but it was sold out...sob! What I should've been looking at was the seasonal menu she also had and yes this was during the holidays lol but it was "The Grinch's Matcha" which is made with pistachio cream matcha latte but it tasted extremely minty and wasn't sure if they mistakenly added peppermint which made it quite difficult to drink as I kept trying it. The whole vibe this trailer brings is so nice and festive I just need to find the time to visit their Kaka'ako location which I tried once but they were closed though love the view and vibe it brings making it a great start to my morning. Thank you!

    Today was my first time trying a beverage here! My drink of choice was a matcha sunset! The line was not long, service was quick :) Ambiance wise, it's located at the farmers market at Kaka'ako on Sundays near where the musicians play. It's not too loud and it's easy enough to relax and have a conversation :) pricing is great! An Americano is about 3 dollars. Not bad considering that other beverage places sell an Americano for 6 or 7$. 10/10 would come back ! :)

    Enjoy the sun,  the breeze, and the ocean view with your drink... mine is a Lavender Haze IYKYK

    I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS COFFEE BUSINESS! No doubt her menu has something for everyone but her signature drinks are a must as they are truly epic in flavor, well balanced, the layering of the flavors brings out the best in her drinks and I can say you won't get this experience anywhere else! Being in Hawaii, our home, we live for surf and sun, so bikinis are part of our wardrobe so why not serve up a golden drink island style with exceptional friendly service! So...go check her out and support this local mama! Lots of open seating & parking with great views!

    One Piece
    Donte B.

    The One Piece was amazing refreshing and Ilima the young lady that made my coffee was hospitalitable and welcoming with a smile and joy. Making my visit even more enjoyment, One Bikini Barista will be around for a long time with service as grand as Ilima presenting and coffee to indulge in, thank you for an amazing experience... - Donte, Sanford, North Carolina

    Elyse L.

    alright such a VIBE! First off the ladies were super kind and sweet, and very patient with me. Big smiles. I ended up getting a double shot of espresso with pistachio cream! So delicious , and I can't wait to try other lattes and Italian sodas :) shoutout to the two girls with positive energy that's always a BONUS

    Island Breeze Latte (halfway done, SO GOOD!)

    Received great customer service along with an excellent tasty drink! HIGHLY recommend the Island Breeze latte!

    Cutest little locally owned coffee spot in Salt Lake!! So happy to find this place because there aren't many if any other local spots for coffee & tea on this side! They have many options for syrups and they use one my favorite coffee roasters from Kailua! The owner is nice & the service is great and quick. Definitely worth checking out & I will definitely be back!!(:

    Iced latte

    Great coffee and prices! This cute bikini barista truck is located at fisherman's warf, right by kewaloas harbor. No like during the weekdays, can get busy Saturdays as its farmers market.

    iced vanilla matcha

    hands down one of my favorite places to get a matcha. she uses locally sourced syrups which makes it taste 100 times better in my opinion

The array of lunch trucks are found near the intersection of Ala Moana and Kalākaua Ave. It was my first time to this lunch truck area in Waikiki and I was craving some garlic shrimp. I got the shrimp plate for $19.99, they charged a little more when I used my credit card. At first I was getting impatient since I waited about 20 minutes for my shrimp but it was so worth it! They make the shrimp to order so it's fresh and hot when you get it. The shrimps were a good generous size and fresh and the garlic sauce with the rice was so good! The shrimp plate comes with a green salad. I would say this shrimp shack was one of the best i've tried on island because the shrimps are huge and the garlic butter was so ono! There are seats to sit down in the lunch truck area but many seats are in the hot sun w no shade. If you're lucky you can grab a picnic table with shade. It's worth it so go try it!

There are the tiniest baby roaches in the crevices of the picnic table due to the buildup of gunk and I saw them crawling around the table and larger ones on the ground which made me gag.

We had the "highly rated" North Shore shrimp three years ago and the way they serve it to you isn't very appetizing. However, this shack, chef's kiss. The presentation and the flavor was all there. My partner's platter was half short rib and half garlic shrimp. (Fries/drinks from a different location.) Service 5/5 The staff are friendly and very hardworking. They were very quick to get me a plastic bag when I asked. 100000% coming back.

This was more chipotle ish with maybe some sort of minced onion than the spicy garlic shrimp I had the past two times. I didn't eat here when it was Angry shrimp because they mixed onion and mushrooms with shrimp or something and I was looking for Garlic shrimp. I have the picture from last weeks garlic shrimp. Last week it tasted like it had fish sauce in it with spices and garlic, etc...tonight it literally tastes like bbq seasoning mixed with chipotle seasoning and chili onion. I'm not writing this review to bash this shrimp truck because I think they are very nice but more so as constructive criticism...to hopefully keep their recipe consistent. People want the flavor of Garlic shrimp without having to go to the north shore. These other seasonings just didn't cut it for me:(

We were hungry in the morning, so we arrived just after they opened. There was lots of parking. We ordered and while the Poi rolls were cooking we had a chance to chat with the owner Dennis. He described the extra effort that they put into every ingredient. Later after we finished eating, Dennis would bring bowls of freshly cut cantaloupe from a close-by market. It was perfectly ripe and one of the best that I have tasted. That is an example of the Aloha you will feel while visiting. I have been to Hawaii a dozen times and was never a fan of Poi because I never tasted a dish that was prepared properly. We went to a picnic the previous day that had a donut like pasty made with Poi and fresh Poi made at a local restaurant. They were both delicious and this totally changed my opinion. Based on that positive experience I wanted to try the signature Poi dog. We opted for the spicy version. It was so tasty with the matching condiments. If you are a foodie that wants to try something unique, be sure to give it a try. Dennis has a sister location in Waikiki that is managed by his partner Hong Banh-Mi sandwiches are one of my weekly lunch options when at home, so we were excited to plan a visit to Aloha Hot Dog and Banh-Mi for dinner!
