    This food truck in Waipahu is usually parked next to mop Central and diamond's kitchen there are orange Food Truck that serves Filipino type empanadas , noodles, and lumpia's today they only had empanadas so we decided to try that as seen everywhere on their Facebook and Instagram. I must say it was very delicious especially with the sauce that vinegar sauce. I definitely highly recommend this place. The empanada had super great crunch to it, and the filling was just right. Was made to order so fresh. The filling has green papaya, shredded long Anisa an egg. So delicious. Service was acceptable they were not the friendliest but food made up for it lol.

    The inside of the empanada. You can order it with or without the egg.

    Don't answer calls for order. Bad business ethics !! Need to answer all calls. We heard that it was a good place to eat empanadas.

I love how they make their pancake crispy and it was loaded with seafood in it. We also noticed it had mochi or rice cakes in it which is not something you usually see in seafood pancakes but it was a nice touch. The food came out fast and the prices are ok. I would definitely come here again for their pancakes and maybe try other things from their menu!

I chose the simple Shinramyun ya not the brightest choice on this humid day but didn't want something too heavy as it just need a bit of fuel to get me going and this spot was definitely on my list. Love that they put the spice level beside each item for a heads up the staff here is nice and as they were more flooded with orders than I realized as they do take phone orders it did take a bit for my order. Since I was dining right there among the bench it didn't need to be separated and loved that it was served on a tray along with a side of kimchee yum the ramyun had a soft cooked egg and some carrots a nice and simple snack which gave me much needed boost though as it was basically no different than a bowl of instant noodle this was crazy overpriced and glad that I didn't get the soft tofu which was $13.50 which I didn't need that type of spice in my life. Thank you!

The service was easy and fast but just know they only take cash or venmo - no cards! The menu is simple and yet creative because there are so many of their signature sauces to choose from. I got the three mix plate with Firecracker Chicken, 94 Sauce Pork Chops and Cream Meatballs. I also got the 74 South Moko. Everything was delicious. The chicken was crispy and juicy and the pork was tender. The meatballs were a little salty with the sauce, but just eat a lot of rice! The moko isn't a patty, it's just their meatballs. The eggs were perfectly runny and a very savory.

    Food truck adventure in Waipahu, Oahu, Hawaii…read more.. If you want dinner or late night eats, go to Mops Central! They have free parking and an outdoor dining area! The menu is interesting! I got one of the sspecials: the Mum Mum Noodles Deluxe; and the Pork Chops with Garlic Kake (garlic Furikake) sauce. Yum! The Mum Mum Noodles Deluxe was topped with easy over eggs, French Fries, and a sweet mayo (?) sauce. I liked the chewy Noodles, but I prefer a more savory sauce - I'm sure I could have asked to change sauce if I knew. Note: Ketchup at home helped a lot! The pork Chops were delicious and tender! Corn was a nice side, along with two scoops of rice. Service was okay. I asked what "Mops" stood for - it's slang for "eating". The cashier made an eating motion... LOL!

    Man, it's been a while since I had some of Sw8 Dada's (I believe it was May of last year). Last…read moretime I went was when they were still a food truck by Waipahu festival marketplace. It was sure good to be back, and I am happy for their business to have its own place where customers can sit, not just takeout. They are now located near West Loch station by Mickey D's and Seafood City [the shops West Loch station). I live in Honolulu but it was sure worth it to take the rail to satisfy my sisig craving. I ordered their pork sisig with rice, and it sure was still delish! Pro tip for the business is using calamansi instead of lemon (but still good!). My order seems like it is for just one person but honestly, if you share it with another person, you'd still be satisfied because it is stomach-heavy! If you didn't have much to eat throughout the day, you could easily demolish the sisig dish I ordered. For drinks, they have canned sodas inside for $2.00 but I decided to get some smoothies at Hang's just doors down the place. As the parking spot may fill up, you can always drop a buddy off to pick up some to-go order. I have yet to try some of their other dishes such as their beef pares noodles. So--if you are craving ramen--try switching it up and get some of their noodles! I also recommend getting bulk orders for parties! Mahalo and I hope this business continues to reap success!

    Seen this place showcased on a couples YouTube channel and decided to come in and try for myself…read more They made it look and sound so good! I ordered their pork sisig with egg which cost me about $23 including tip. I'd say it was worth the cost given the portion size and the deliciousness of the pork sisig. The one thing I did not like was the Rice my plate came with. It was very wet and mushy which sucked because it killed the enjoyment of the pork sisig for me. Also, service from the cashier was not very friendly when I asked her a question, maybe she was not having a good morning. Idk. Anyways aside from that, everything else was good. Location is easy to get too, lots of convenient parking outside and dining area was very clean and up to date trendy. I do have plans to return to try their beef pares! That looks Ono too. Hope I get a better experience next time. It wasn't that bad of an experience, so I'd still recommend this place to friends and family because their pork sisig was delicious! Make sure to squeeze the lemon on top gives it extra flavor.

Ordered lechon with spam on top of fried rice, a bbq pork skewer, pork lumpia, n' turon. When you got a block party + Filipino food, it's sure to put you in a good mood!" SERVICE: fully staffed INTERIOR: n/a EXTERIOR: pop-up tent @ Waikīkī SPAM JAM 2026 WAIT TIME: 25 mins prior to placing order, 15 mins to receive food PARKING: street, nearby lots n' garages OVERALL COMMENTS: arrived at the line, which was long but surprisingly moved faster than expected. Everyone was working hard to get the food out fast. Lechon had the perfect crispy skin while the meat was tender. A good amount was given n' was nicely prepared. Ate it with the mang tomas sauce that was provided. The addition of spam pieces was to incorporate the main attraction. The fried rice unfortunately didn't have much flavor. I ended up eating it with vinegar to jazz it up. Bbq pork stick was really good on its own. The vinegar that was provided added even more flavor. It was actually my favorite out of everything; had a good char. Pork lumpia was two long pieces that was equivalent to like 6 regular size pieces. My kids enjoyed it. The turon had a good crunchy exterior, the banana seemed a bit on the dry side. Glad to see many people trying Dick's Lechon n' supporting local!

We ordered the adobo omelette -n- the lechon plate, which came with rice -n- pancit. Actually, I got the lechon kawali but when we went back to the car to eat, there were no tomatoes or onions . Also, there's a sign that says "don't forget to ask for sauces" but because it started pouring rain, I forgot -n- assumed they would just add it. The lechon was super good -n- crunchy but I'm a sauce person so it definitely would've been better with some vinegar sauce, onions -n- tomatoes. The pancit kinda tasted off, I can't describe it. The adobo omelette was ok, but salty; I was tripping out that the rice was so dark colored. I think I would go here again just for the lechon -n- I won't forget to ask for sauce haha.

They're located on the corner and once you see a tent & smell bbq, you're at the right spot. This restaurant gave karinderia vibe to it! Karinderia is basically like those food stalls they have in the Philippines, where they have a bunch of dishes and you sit out to enjoy the food. Home cooked & affordable eats. They have everything from bbq sticks, adobo, lechon, kilawan, lumpia and more. I got the bbq stick & chicken inasal plate. The bbq stick was packed with so much flavor! The chicken inasal was more on the huli huli side & was served with Filipino dipping sauce. They also offer free sabaw with your meal. Ordering was a little complicating, they have a menu outside with food and also more food inside. The bbq items were cooked by order and the inside food had more of the Filipino dishes like (adobo). But next to the cashier, you could also find other fried dishes as well. So a little complicated. You also have the option to sit outside under the tent or inside the restaurant with AC. For this type of place, if you're dining in, you order & eat first then pay. Like any karindera. Overall, this place was VERY good & SUPER AFFORDABLE. If you want to experience a true Filipino experience with great food, this place is for you.
