They give the same amount of rice. This time around, went on a Sunday in July; took over 45 min from ordering to getting the food. Difficult to get a seat. There's a sign that they didn't have the spice version available because they were short staff. However, they gave chili sauce. Finding a parking spot in the shared lot was quick; they still charge $2 to park.

Well if you just so happen to go skydiving and get hungry, this is the perfect place to eat. I got one of the bagels sandwiches and was completely blown away. Not often do you get a sandwich that makes you want to go buy another. I am really grateful that I had the opportunity to eat here because it reminds you that you don't have to be in a traditional restaurant setting to eat great food. I would add more to this about the food, but I recommend you just come and try it. I literally had to stop myself and take the picture lol.

We find parking in the lot nearby as it is quite large so that was smooth. Go around the corner and find Kono's...no line and there are tables/seats available outside (be prepared to dine with chickens) and even inside. We order the Haleiwa, Waimea, and Local Bomber burritos and this is where things turn. We wait...and wait...and wait..approximately 1 hour for our food! Wow. I get folks are on island time but this is crazy. That said the burritos are quite tasty... so can't complain about that. If you are in a hurry (and yes we wanted to get to the beach early to score parking) then you may want to look at alternatives.

If you want your food instantly after you order go to McDonalds... food is made fresh to every order here and the wait is always worth it! It is a food truck after all not a full scale restaurant kitchen. AHI KATSU is the go to and it always kills, huge serving size as well! 5 stars is the max it lets me give for this place but it doesn't begin to express the memories and good experiences I've had here!

We ordered the Ahi Poke Bowl and the Loco Moco, and both were incredibly satisfying and flavorful.

I also have a positive review of them so I'm not bias. This is just better imho. I'm a week late on the review, but better late than never. Food (5 stars) + Extra shrimp upgrade for a few bucks? Huge portion, bigger shrimp, perfectly balanced flavors--not drowned in butter. Great presentation too! + Hot sauce with a sweet kick--absolutely complementary. + Kalbi plate was tender and delicious--sweet, savory, and bone-in goodness. Service/Ambiance (5 stars) + Quick service, easy seating right in front of their truck, no confusion. + Personal touch with celebrity signatures on the truck--BTS included! (Not that I know much about them, but pretty cool) ~ Parking here is $2 and $5 in another lot about a block away. We paid the $5 to support the local community. This is the one I'll rave about! When I'm back, Hono's is my first stop. And yes, check out that BTS autograph!

Another shrimp truck in the middle of the food trucks within the same plaza as Giovanni's. We…read morewanted to see what all the hype was about at Giovanni's and compare it with Hono's, and trust me when I say Hono's wins by far. This Korean-inspired truck has more to offer than its competitors, not only because the menu is bigger, but also because there is zero wait and the shrimp is just as good. The service was relatively quick, and the woman working the truck was very nice. We ordered the galbi shrimp plate, and the galbi was pretty spot on. It wasn't as tender as we would've liked, but the flavor was definitely there. The shrimp was on the spicier side, but again, the flavor really came through. It is a bit of a nuisance to have to peel your own shrimp, but they were soft enough that you could still eat them pretty easily if you didn't feel like it. Seating is also nice since Hono's has its own area away from Giovanni's.

Ray's Kiawe Broiled Chicken is a local favorite that has a pretty intense following. Many people…read morecome here to enjoy the chicken. It is literally cooked outside on a nice fire. Waited in line for a little bit and maybe about 30 minutes our chicken was done. Ordered just a whole chicken to try and this was my first time having it. The seasoning is light and the chicken is juicy. I would say this actually tasted pretty alright. But I think I like mine slightly saltier or seasoned more. But overall if you ever see this off the road you should stop by and try it out.

The wait was a little longer than expected, a bit over 30 minutes. The food itself was okay overall. The chicken was decent, and the pineapple slaw leaned more on the sweeter side than I personally prefer. Nothing was necessarily bad, but nothing really stood out either. The girl who took my order was very nice and friendly, which I appreciated. Unfortunately, the person packing the order didn't seem very welcoming and gave off the impression that they didn't want to be there, which affected the overall experience a bit. Overall, it was just an okay experience for me and probably not somewhere I'd personally return to.

I ordered the dragonfruit and lilikoi slush. I really liked the texture of this and was a refreshing treat for a hot day. It was a little more on the icy/watery side, so I wish it had a bit more flavor and honey on it. For pizzas, we ordered the fungi pizza and goat and honey pizza. The fungi was delicious as there was a generous amount of mushrooms and cheese. The goat and honey pizza was good but not as good as the fungi. I liked the texture of the crust on both pizzas. Overall, a solid spot if you're craving pizza on the North Shore.

This place is not as Wicked Good as it used to be. I've given it a few trips because I wanted to be…read moresure that I wasnt just nostalgic for the old ownership/name. But its been a steady decline and drop in quality. This is specifically for the Haleiwa location. I've been to the Kailua location once right after they opened; experience was similar but they just opened. Biggest problem: they cant put out food in a timely manner. 30+ min wait for a pizza when there is only one other customer there and 3 employees in the truck. Pizza should not take that long. Pizza: Its OK pizza. The most recent one I got was their Hawaiian (pictured). Very greasy. Pizza is small, one is not going to be a meal for two people. At $23 bucks, its definitely pricey for what you're getting. Sourdough crust has good taste but it either didnt cook all the way through or the grease soaked through and it was a little spongy. Slush: My other problem. Used to be unbelievably good and unique. But the consistency has changed. I Regularly find big ice chunks. It used to be smooth, full-flavored, could taste the fruit; no more. You can get much better just straight ShaveIce with natural fruit flavor at dozens of places on the island. It's a bummer. Ive been a customer since it was a dude and his girlfriend slinging honey slush out of farmers marker tents. As much as I want it to be, Its just not as good anymore.

The spicy garlic sauce was bad and did not have butter garlic flavor...it ruined the taste and I didn't finish my plate. The regular butter garlic shrimp tasted better. I usually ALWAYS go to Jenny's Shrimp truck right across the street, but I had visitors who insisted on eating at Giovanni's (they were closed today due to short staff, and I don't care for their shrimp either) so they picked Big Wave despite me advocating for Jenny's. I already knew it was probably going to be a miss after seeing Guy Fieri's pictures plastered everywhere and I was right. Anyways, I'm still glad I tried it out but when in Haleiwa I will never cheat on Jenny's again! Lol.
