    Lots of aloha for Pineapple Express! We were so glad we could stop by and loved all the food. Super friendly and terrific service. Nice and relaxing with some picnic table seating if you want to eat there, but perfect for takeaway meals to your favorite beach. We wish we could've come back again! If you're in Kapa'a, def go visit! Loco moco was eaten before I could take a picture.

    Friendly staff and amazing food! Smoked meat was flavorful and tender! We also had the moco loco! Gravy is delicious!

    3.5 stars. Lone food truck in a lot with a few parking spaces, another eating establishment and another food truck around the corner. We shared 2 items, fried spam musubi and pork Lau Lau which came with rice and a scoop of Mac cheese. The pork was juicy and moist. Mac cheese was OK. I didn't care for the fried musubi. It had chopped bits is Spam instead of whole slice on top of the rice. What I liked the most was the lilikoi lemonade with a delicious mix of the 2 flavors.

    Amazing spot to try for authentic kalua pork! It's a tiny food truck in a parking lot but nothing short of flavor. Will be back the next time we are on the island!

    Steak, Mac and rice with an egg on top.

    I saw this food truck and decided to stop by. I got the Steak, Mac and rice with an egg on top. Absolutely incredible and would come back again! Thank you for the delicious and fresh food!

    Stopped here directly after my flight for a quick snack, and this was the BEST fresh & tasty food to have after a flight. I love the variety of options on the menu and the prices are really good too. Also, the lady in the front was so nice I've never had any Spam Musubi like this, but it was SO good I loved the crispiness and the flavor. I ubered from the airport for $7 (if there's a surge, just wait 5-20 mins until it goes down.) Also, it's right on the left of Walmart. Thanks for the yummy food & a nice welcome to Kaua'i! Mahalo!

    Ahhhh.... What a great place. Great food, great smells, and an awesome chef! If you are near the Walmart give this a try. After getting the food back to the resort I can honestly say that it was excellent. After my frustrating experience this morning at The Kountey Kitchen in Kapaa I would recommend this location hands down. Keep up the good work.

    Shrimp

    We tried hurricane shrimp, deep fried spam musubi, pork plate lunch, poke and a pineapple smoothie. This was our first truck we tried in Kauai and 5 meals around the island later it's been the best and most memorable. I'm not a huge fan of musubis but this one was SO GOOD! You can tell that the food is made with passion and love. The hospitality was amazing as well! We will be back before we leave!

    Scan and see!

    We came right as they were closing, I believe they ran out of a lot of things so they closed a little early, keep that in mind when planning this for an early dinner. I ordered the Garlic Furikake Chicken plate (comes with Mac salad and rice) but they were out of Mac salad :( so they doubled the rice. That's easily the best chicken I've ever had! I'm bummed they ran out of Mac salad but I'd definitely just plan to come earlier instead of when they were closing. The lady I ordered from was very nice and complimented my Selena shirt (anything for Selena!:) she helped me along with my order and I ended up loving what I got. Definitely recommend! It's located in the Walmart parking lot so there's plenty of parking too!

    Chili chicken
    Veronica P.

    This was my favorite place I tried while visiting the island for 6 days. Very friendly service. Ordered the fried chili chicken with mac salad, it was hot & fresh and delicious. The mac salad was my favorite compared to other places as well. I also ordered the fried spam musubi. I was mind blown. I loved that it was in the form of a little roll. So amazing. Do not miss out on this little food truck in the Walmart parking lot in Lihue!

    Kauai Juice Co. was such a fun stop during our trip! I ordered the Starburst (strawberry,…read morepineapple, orange), and it totally reminded me of Jamba Juice's Strawberry Surfrider -- one of my all-time favorites -- so I was instantly obsessed. It was super refreshing, flavorful, and perfect for the island vibes. They offer two sizes, and I went with the smaller one, which was honestly perfect. It comes in the cutest reusable glass bottle, and they let you return it (washed) for store credit -- such a great eco-friendly touch! But honestly, it's also such a cute souvenir that you might want to keep it. The shop itself also carries a variety of other items, so I'll definitely be coming back to explore more during our trip. The location is great too -- there's plenty of street parking and a nearby parking lot, and it's surrounded by other cute shops and foodie spots, making it a great place to walk around and explore. Overall, such a refreshing and aesthetic spot -- highly recommend stopping by if you're in the area!

    I am a BIG fan! I had been following them on IG prior to my arrival last July…read more I had a sublet for the month of July and the property manager offered to treat me. I chose Kauai Juice company and had my very first juice which to this day is one of my favorites. Since July, I've branched out to not only the juices, and juice shots, but also the tinctures. They've got a truly spectacular selection of supplements as well as salads, chocolate and honey. I also enjoy their merch. I bought a Kauai Juice racer back tank that I practically lived in the entire summer long! All of the juice baristas are super friendly and knowledgeable. I'm a regular at Kauai Juice and I've also branched out from the OG spot in Kapaa to the larger location in Kilauea. Highly recommend this place! They're awesome

The shrimp rolls were packed with flavor and accompanied by a salty and spicy wasabi soy dipping sauce that really elevated the dish. While the fried chicken was great, it was overshadowed for me by the quality of the other dishes we tried there. The staff were extremely friendly and answered our questions and made us feel very welcome. The interior is nothing fancy and there is no on site seating, but there are plenty of great places to eat nearby. We took our meal a block down to Kauai Fruit Company (where we bought several truly amazing containers of fruit to accompany our meal) and sat at their picnic tables.

And take it, somewhere else, to eat. No tables or seats, in this market. We ate ours, in the car, before heading to the airport. It was delicious, really fresh. Opens at 6am, so has that "We just caught this" feel. And not as "Pricey" as some Yelp Reviewers claimed it to be.

Since we got one of the combos that had ice cream, it was $7. The ice is so fluffy! It feels finer than bingsu. The flavors were light and went really well together. I loved the mac nut ice cream at the bottom and while I don't like nut pieces in my dessert, I really liked this one. I am actually curious to know what ice cream they use. The staff here was so friendly and I loved how you could get souvenirs and shaved ice at this spot. I'll definitely come back here for shaved ice when I am in the Kapaa area. There is some street parking and a tiny lot near by. We got lucky going on a weekday afternoon to find parking. There is a small bench outside for eating the shaved ice.
