Aaaahhhhh, there are few better ways a restaurant can make a first impression! My better half and I chose to get some take out to eat on the beach and enjoy the beautiful sunset. The sunset was beautiful but the food made our evening! We ordered a shrimp/noodle plate ($10) and a steak/fish plate ($14). The shrimp were fairly basic... Simple, but excellent! I actually wasn't a huge fan of the noodles, but my better half thought they were outstanding. We ordered the steak with LIGHT seasoning and it tasted perfect (I tend to like salty things, but had been warned that they tend to go very heavy on seasoning)...the steak was deliciously marinated and cooked just right! Finally, the star of the night was the fish! It was a huge piece of red snapper that was perfect! It tasted super fresh and made an otherwise good meal great!

First time here back a month ago and re-visited again. Two more retries and the recipe or how they…read morecook changed. Went from being the best ive had in a while to "omg so salty", "this is so dry", and "is this even steak?" The cooking method is inconsistent for four tries now, and I was being generous with forgiveness on taste. Seriously though, the amount of sodium on the chicken ruins the crispy reason why I even came to give it another shot. The steak went from flavourful to nothing to almost not cooked. I cannot understand how hard it is to cook consistently with a time and seasoning...its chicken damn it. For anyone thinking I should just learn, I got it. Its just convenience like any other reason to eat out. The fish though...top notch stuff. Furikake ahi was bomb.dotcom.

Love Cosmic Tacos!!!!…read more Based out of Makaha, Hawaii, this one-stop Taco Truck is all you need to get your Taco fix! They have the best Tacos, Burritos, Nachos, etc. Owned by an Amazing, Hard Working Team of Husband Kris and Wife Erica, they always have the best customer service. Purchased dinner from them this past Thursday 5/1/25 at the "Lei of Literacy" event at the Nanakuli Library. As always, everything on the menu is great! We ordered: the Super Nachos, 4 Quesabirria Taco Plate and the 4 Cosmic Taco Plate. Both plates came with rice, beans, lime and salsa. Took it home and completely decimated them :) So Ono and delicious! Their food truck is always clean and orderly. They put their Heart and Soul into everything that they do! They're on Instagram and Facebook. Please follow them. Would Love everyone near and far to come and Support this Awesome, Family Owned Local Company. Thank you for the ono grinds Cosmic Tacos!

Always looking to sample local cuisine we happened upon 808_Puffs when we were exploring Waianae. Too early for lunch, we decided to get some puffs to take back to the hotel. They sat untouched in their box for exactly 2.3 miles or 10 minutes. Precisely the amount of time it took to find a place to park where they were promptly devoured. With gusto and sincere pleasure. We bought four with the intent to share. Unfortunately we forgot utensils and it's incredibly hard to split a puff with fingers, so I can't provide firsthand feedback on the Dubai puff or the chocolate bar puff. I can tell you they were gone in a flash and no one offered to give me a bite. The ube puff was delicious and crammed full of ube goodness and that the chantilly puff topped with chocolate was divine and though I didn't mean it, I did offer my husband a bite of both. The storefront is small. There might have been a table or two in the front, but there was a very hyper child up there, so we stayed close to the register waiting for our order. They also have hot food and a selection of poke which looked fresh, but poke's not my thing so... Their prices were reasonable, the store was clean and service was quick at 10 am.

Great sweet and savory flavor. Their pickled onions are not to be slept on too, got myself some extras. Would get a whole jar next time to eat with whatever

First, you need to know that this business does not have a brick and mortar location. You are able to purchase items from their menu at craft fairs and farmer's market . However, they do offer catering. The contact number can be found on her business IG which is shantells_cocina. Shantell was extremely communicative via text. She informed me that my order would be $95 before tax because she sells 5 pasteles for $35 and a small pan of gandule rice for $60. We agreed on a location that was convenient for me. She. met meet at a public place with freshly made gandule rice and pasteles. My family and I loved every bit of her food and everything was mopped in 2 days. Thank you Shantell for doing business with me at the last minute. Highly recommend Shantell's Cocina for your catering needs!

They serve a variety of Puerto Rican food with a hawaiian twist. I decided to have the steak, shrimp and laulau. It also comes with gandule rice and macaroni salad. The flavors are fire. Steak is a nice medium rare which is to my personal preference and the shrimp is delicious with a creamy unique sauce. The ratio of pork, fat and greens in the luau is so well balanced. As for the gandule rice, it is by far the best I have ever eaten. Every morsel is perfectly flavored. This is a special treat when you want to have a cheat day. This is truly one of the best places to eat on the island. Chef's kiss to Guudfellaz.

I also tried the cabbage and pork and that's also excellent! I wish there's more filling because there's quite a bit of empty space inside the dumpling.

I'm following them on social media now to find out their whereabouts!

I think the noodles were so-so when I first had it but when I reheated it the next day they were even better! It was spicy lemony--where was that flavor the day before?! I wanted to try another drink but they were out of it so I settled for the ginger lemon drink. I saw one review saying it wasn't sweet enough and I can see why. It's like that citron tea you get at the Korean markets you have to mix with liquid -- it needs to be mixed more so it stays at the bottom of the cup. I can just do this at home... Overall, the potstickers were the best thing I ordered but I'm not sure if 6 pieces for $10 is worth it.
