We came here after having dinner nearby looking for a sweet treat and were happy to see this shaved…read moreice spot. I shared a mini strawberry shaved ice with my partner and we were happy with how light the shaved ice is and the whipped cream gave it all sweetness without being as heavy as some of the ice cream choices. It's on the pricier side starting at $10.99 for a mini version and I wish there was more fruit as it was largely whipped cream but overall a nice refreshing dessert

So it looks like there may be a wait at times, just a heads up. Order at the counter. Staff calls your number and brings the item out to you. The shop interior is cute and minimal, and they have number of two-person tables outdoors on their patio. We got a couple of items: the fruity pebbles, the Biscoff, and the watermelon. It was very helpful to have photos of the items at the counter. Nevertheless, we ordered too much - they were HUGE. We should have split. But we all loved the bingsu - the actual shaved milk is not too sweet and the toppings add the flavor. So the watermelon was a little less sweet overall as the fruit was the flavoring since there was no syrup. The fruity pebbles and the Biscoff were a little bit more sweet and layered throughout, which is what I wanted.

The service is friendly and even though you wait a minute for your order it's not too long and bingsu has to be made to order. This spot has become a regular stop for us as it is a family favorite!

Our pickup was about 25 minutes later, so we just walked around the little shops in the building. But if you're hoping to just grab and go, definitely place an online order.

A Southern Gem in Battle Ground - Krisey's Kitchen is a Must-Try! If you haven't made the drive to Krisey's Kitchen in Battle Ground, WA, let me tell you--you're missing out on some of the best Southern comfort food you'll find in the Pacific Northwest. This food truck isn't just good; it's transporting. One bite, and I was back home in South Georgia, where rich flavors, generous portions, and soul-warming hospitality reign supreme. Today, I had the shrimp and grits, and let me just say--muah, superb! Perfectly seasoned shrimp, nestled in a creamy, buttery bed of grits that had just the right texture. The flavors were bold yet balanced, with a depth that only comes from someone who truly knows their way around Southern cuisine. I also couldn't resist the breakfast pork chop plate, and it did not disappoint. The pork chop was thick, juicy, and fried to golden perfection--crispy on the outside, tender on the inside. And the sides? Oh, the tater tot casserole was pure indulgence--cheesy, crispy, and packed with flavor. But the real surprise? The cinnamon roll casserole. Imagine everything you love about a warm, gooey cinnamon roll but in a rich, buttery, melt-in-your-mouth form that made every bite better than the last. Krisey's Kitchen isn't just serving food; they're serving memories on a plate. If you've been craving real, down-home Southern cooking--make the drive. It's absolutely worth it. I promise you'll leave full, happy, and already planning your next visit. read more

I stopped by Krisey's Kitchen because my girlfriend was craving fried catfish and fried okra. And honestly, it was the perfect choice. The service was incredible, she took our order and made us feel super welcome. The fried catfish was crispy on the outside, tender and flaky on the inside, with a perfectly seasoned cornmeal crust that added just the right amount of crunch. It was everything you'd want from classic Southern comfort food. The fried okra is a must-have, lightly battered and fried to a golden brown, each bite delivered a satisfying, fresh flavor without being greasy. I couldn't resist trying the ravioli casserole, which turned out to be a cheesy, hearty masterpiece. Layers of pasta, rich tomato sauce, and melted cheese combined for a deliciously unexpected dish at a Southern-style food truck. And then, there was dessert. The pecan pie was a standout. It sweet and nutty with a gooey center and a buttery, flaky crust. It was the perfect way to wrap up the meal. I also grabbed a side of fried pickles, which were tangy and crisp with a light, batter that made them an addictive snack. This food truck knows how to nail both the classics and a few unexpected twists, making it a great spot for anyone craving hearty, comforting dishes. Do yourself a favor and stop by. read more

I ordered at the restaurant since their online ordering wasn't working. These guys really crank out the food during their considerable lunch rush. They completed my two white chicken meat bento in less than ten minutes. I was able to get home in time for my honey to eat lunch before a doctor appointment. The chicken has this perfect char on it. We didn't even use the included sauce. Just perfect with the white rice and corn side. It was so good we're going back this weekend for more! Prices are about the going rate for lunch in 2026. $38 for two kahuna sized bento. It was enough to keep me going all day. Best teriyaki we've found so far in Vancouver and we've tried more than a few. This one wins for ticking the boxes on portion, price and quality. If they reduced the plastic they used for packaging they'd be pretty much perfect!

So that is what I was expecting, since they have really good reviews. Service was great... fast and friendly. Sandwich was well stuffed, lot of meat and veggies. But the grilled pork was more traditional, more savory with mayo and Maggi or soy sauce. The pickled veggies (Đồ Chua) were sour / salty... unlike most of the Vietnamese pickled veggies I love, which are a good bit sweeter. The french roll was ok. Not as crispy on the exterior as I prefer... might be been a little underdone too, or under proofed. I will have to try the Lemongrass chicken bahn mi... might be more to my taste. Also got eggrolls with my meal, and they were ok... crispy outside, interiors were a bit mushy.

I also ordered vegetables because Hawaiian food is always lacking on that front. To be honest, it was way too salty and I would have just been happy if they had cooked it without any salt, just steamed, but that's just me! I also tried their chocolate cake slice. It was okay. I would recommend eating here. I do like the food and am willing to try more dishes. I think I was just choosing the wrong options the first time round.
