    It was delicious that's all I need to say about them! Thanks for popping up in town :) Their shredded beef empanada was delicious and that garlic lime sauce just is the perfect compliment! Will always make it a point to order when I see them! They took my order and were friendly! They have a truck now and it looked decked out and ready for more pop-ups. Was lucky I was able to try it since I was told they always sell out :o

    A fun food truck option, empanadas are an easy thing to eat when craving an easy meal. I got to try them on a visit to Howzit Brewing, but I know they move around. Their big and filled with great portions for a reasonable price. The shell is crispy and flavorful. The only drawback was they were so greasy, which also imparted that flavor. The people working at the truck were very friendly, orders made quickly. I loved the side sauce, so definitely get that if you're trying it. Bonus, cute sticker logo!

    Empanada variety

    She was the sweetest! I got one of every flavor empanada and each one was so good. The sauce is a must! It really cuts the oil and adds a refreshing flavor to it. They were hot and crispy.

    Venezuelan empanadas made by immigrants from Venezuela with the key ingredient, the corn and wheat flour imported from Venezuela. The size of your hand, hot and fresh from the fryer, not excessively oily, crisp and filled with meaty, juicy goodness. The beef and chicken with cream cheese hit hard but it's all about the pabellon criollos (beef, plantains, and black been stew) or the related colab with Nana Ai Katsu, churry (a blend of bean and beef chili with Japanese style pork curry) that will make you come right back for more. Say yes to the sauce to go with. It adds a creamy, herbaceous finish that readies the palate for more. Popping up around the island. Follow on IG. A worthwhile use of stomach real estate on the next food crawl through Hawaii's ever evolving transient food scene.

    Chorizo empanadas

    This is the best empanadas I have! The flavor is perfect and love I can taste the corn flavor of the tortillas

    We tried their newest chocolate cake & flan creation!! Yummy!!!

    Guaiqueri Empanadas Food Truck makes the most amazing empanadas, Guasacaca sauce and a beautifully rich and moist chocolate cake topped with a smooth flan. We tried their chorizo empanadas, and also their chicken and cream cheese, empanadas. The owners are very kind and the food is a flavorful mix of everything your mouth and belly have always wanted to taste from Venezuela. We found their food truck on the corner of University Ave and Coyne street. It's definitely a food truck that you need to experience in Honolulu.

    Chicken with cream cheese

    Chicken with cream cheese is amazingly delicious! It's fresh fried so crispy outside and flavorful inside. Also the source has authentic flavor to give it a kick.:)

    They do pop-ups every now and then at the CPB Tidepools Marketplace. Always cooked fresh...hot and crispy! She is always friendly and has many regular customers coming for her pop-up. This is my 2nd time trying her empanadas and 1st time trying it with the sauce! Must get that sauce! So yummy!

    Beef and cheese Empanadas out of this world!!!!

    Food is great and delicious!!! Service is amazing very friendly!!! Nice and neat place

    Venezuelan cuisine…read more.. It's so hard to miss this vibrant truck with the cute smiling Arepas flashing a Shaka holding a Venezuela flag, and this newbie is the one to find as you must follow them on Instagram @arepas_hawaii and view their stories for locations feels like an exclusive secret spot. Well I found them in Kaka'ako right beside Milky Way Truck right along side Mother Waldron Park and yes it piqued my curiosity and though I do see on their instagram with menu items including empanadas as well though today it seems to be a selected Arepas seven varieties to be exact (Pollo, Pernil, Carne Asada, Spam, Pabellon and Vegetariana). Arepas are ground corn patties grilled and typically are enjoyed like bread are stuff with various fillings and my Pollo (shredded chicken) was stuffed beyond belief along with queso cheese was so enormous she apologize as it was impossible to close the container lol! The chicken was very moist and flavorful not spicy or loaded with sauce though it's standardly comes with cheese you're able to pile on the toppings by adding extras like more cheese or four types of salsa for +$2...oh my gosh what a fun and generous portions she serves here...it's all love! Thank you!

    First off...for a new truck to have prices crossed off on their menu with a sharpie then not even…read morereplace the price is tacky! Was going to order an empanada, 2 drinks and arepa but they said $38. Paid $20 for 2 drinks and 1 empanada instead. Boy o boy did I regret it! $3 for each bottle water?! So that makes the empanada $14?!....lets talk about it! I understand your an arepa truck. But this empanada seems like is made with the same dough as the arepa but just fried. It was so gross and mushy. On top of it the price that was crossed off said $7 under it. I figure, maybe price change is like....$8/$9. Sheesh $14? That's a big difference. Basically paid double. Wasn't even worth it. It was so gross and lacked any flavor. Took me 3 bites to get into the center where the meat filling was. First and last time I'll be eating here!

    Wow, only one word can describe this place…read more 5 stars all around 1. Prices and portions - 5 stars: considering the outrages prices I've seen at the supermarkets, this place has very decent prices for their food. Their portions are enough to fill you you for sure. 2. Flavor - 5 stars: tried the steak, shredded beef and shredded chicken bowls. The seasoning was perfect, not salty just perfect. The beans and rice so delicious. The chimichurri was one of the best I've had. The fried yucca was fried to perfection 3. Facility and location - 5 stars: very clean, very presentable. Even though its a whole in the wall, the place is very nice. Staff is very friendly Only one complaint. They use foil when they serve the food in the bowls. Not a big fan. Foil isn't healthy. I get they are trying to avoid the juice of the meat to filter through the container, but there has to be a better way. Hope management or owner reads this. Would I come back again? is the big question.....absolutely yes! Give them a try, i hope that you are satisfied the same way I was Good job you guys! Keep it up

    PABELLON AREPA is a must. For $14 the PORTION:QUALITY:PRICE ratio is amazing…read more SERVICE is the best I have seen on the island. I know poke is usually a must when in Hawaii but this spot needs to be on your list! Very versatile accommodating with quick service. So AUTHENTIC I wish they had one in LA! Probably be back tomorrow to try another meat option because they just have so many.
