    Love the chicken. Just like high school fund raising time. The other are not like the old style. Juicy and cooked well. Even if he is the only worker. Her got my order fast. Sometimes he's not in a good mood. D But don't let that stop you from buying. Have grace. I would be grumpy sometimes too if I had to all that work by myself in the hot sun.

    Juicy chicken lots of favor. 2nd chicken for dinner because lunch chicken was demolished by the kiddos & still good w/lots of flavor

    Best huli huli chicken on the island. Lots of flavor gotta eat with rice. Better than raising canes, popeyes, kfc, costco, & sams! Friendly, speedy customer service. Wood grilled makes a difference & I love the side salad because I'd like to think I'm trying to eat healthy while sharing the chicken with my KIDS, who also LOVE his chicken. After baseball game grindz. I recommend to all the teams, must try! This is fast food, fresh fire grilled chicken but get it while it lasts because it sells out fast!

    I usually see this huli huli chicken van on my way to Pearl City Walmart. Today was the first time I stopped. Popolo Boi is only there 4 days a week and I'm glad I caught him. He does everything: set up the equipment, prepare the chicken, cook the chicken, pack the chicken, sell the chicken. It's a cash only operation with 4 choices: half chicken, whole chicken, half chicken plate, whole chicken plate. Plates come with rice and tossed salad. Oh, he has soft drinks too. The chicken is good. Seasoned nicely, charred perfectly, moist and tender. Enough said.

    Truck & trailer setup in the park, great mobile setup!

    Driving over from Kaneohe to go to Sam's Club & Walmart we pass the park & always see Popolo Boi's truck. The smells from the Cooker as you pass , smells so good! Decided to stop to bring some dinner home. The owner is a busy one man operation, doing everything efficiently. The menu is simple & the chicken is so good , moist & flavorful. Great local style Huli Huli chicken. Stop by & try his chicken out! You will love it!

    After my first review, I did pick up huli huli chicken quite a few times after that because this chicken tastes just like the old days when students would sell tickets for fundraisers...sooo good! During those several times we picked up, the owner was very pleasant...totally different from the first time. I might've caught him on a bad day. Will come back often!

    Today I had Popolo Boi's huli huli chicken. The chicken was seasoned well and very tasty. The salad with ranch dressing was fresh, and crisp. The food is simple but delicious.

    Leaving my friend's house and just so happened to be stuck at the light where the Huli Huli Chicken sign was. Stuck my head out the window and couldn't smell anything...but decided it was lunch time and we now wanted chicken. Saw the Popolo Boi's truck and the Popolo working his magic. Grabbed a whole chicken plate, went to the park to have a picnic. YUM. Buggah still so moist, and pretty tasty. Not huli huli kine sauce, but little cajuny? Whatevs, was good enough we decided we had to go back and get a chicken for the freezer. The chicken fed me, hubs, and baby, with a little leftover. 3 scoops rice...little bit dry some places, mochi rice some places. Not the best rice but good enough and more than enough for us. Rather get more salad...maybe can? I'll ask next time. Went back for 2nd chicken, and told him the plan for this 2nd one...so he gave me tips on how best to reheat so taste just like fresh. Nice of him! Hubs claims, best in town since most of them taste like cooked in oven nowadays. I'm not sure if best in town but definitely one of the tops. We'll even venture out to PC just to get some chicken...

    Finally got my hands on the Popolo Boi's Huli Huli Chicken Truck located in Pearl City next to the Bus Facility and I'm gonna say this Huli Huli Chicken was one of Best Tasting Huli Huli Chicken i have had on the island. I had the Whole Chicken Plate all Salad for $18 and the only thing I wish he could do was cut the Chicken up in Bite Size Pieces so I can just go to town and pound this Plate. But the Popolo Boy looked too serious as if I took his Lunch Money so I didn't even wanna bother to ask but maybe that's just his personality. Buggah looks like he's locked in and he's all business. When i ordered my Whole Chicken Plate All Salad he put the Salad in a Small Box and had put my Whole Chicken in a Plastic Bag but I wanted to eat that Whole Chicken in a Large Take Out Box and finally had the courage to ask for a Large Take Out Container so I can put my Chicken in it and he gave me one . My heart was beating fast and I offered to give him a dollar for it but he said No Need so that was nice of him. As for the Chicken, this Huli Huli Chicken was Seasoned to perfection and this Chicken was so so Juicy. Each and every bite was magical and I whacked that Huli Huli Chicken like it was my last meal. Love how his Huli Huli Chicken doesn't sit around. He's plucks his Chicken straight from the Kiawe Wood Grill and serves it. Still can't believe I haven't been here all this time but now I know where to go for some seriously Ono Huli Huli Chicken. His prices aren't too bad as well.His Half Chicken is $7 for Half a Chicken and $14 for a Whole Chicken. As for the Plate Lunch it's $9 for a Half Chicken Plate and $17 for a Whole Chicken Plate which comes with Rice and Tossed Salad. Much Mahalo to Da Popolo Boy. He may look rough around the edges but i will still be brave enough to get more Huli Huli Chicken from him because it was that damn Ono

    Menu. Nice and simple.

    I stopped by on a Saturday morning, just before 11am. There were two other cars parked ordering food as well. I ordered two whole chickens, which costed $28. My order came up quickly, he took it ststraight off the huli- huli grill! I like the straight forward menu, half chicken, whole chicken, half chicken plate, whole chicken plate. Super fast and friendly! Amazing, amazing chicken! Fresh and juicy, and so flavorful! Totally recommend! There isn't any seating at the food truck, but there is a huge park right next that you could eat at if you didn't plan to take your food home.

    I hadn't realized how much I missed my huli huli chicken prior to Covid days when students would be selling these freshly grilled chickens as fundraisers for their schools. With the pandemic, much of the huli huli chicken disappeared from dinner tables that locals enjoyed eating. Note that the term "huli huli" chicken is a trademark of the Pacific Poultry Company since 1967, as this company coordinated and assisted the organizations with their fundraisers (they are now located on the Mainland). "Huli" is a cooking method that means to "turn" in Hawaiian, with the chicken being prepared by barbecuing it over kiawe wood to give it a smoky flavor and basting it with a sweet "huli huli" sauce. Lots of sweating manpower were needed to place the chickens between two wire racks and in unison, turning or "huling" the rack over so that the other side of the chickens get cooked via the smoky kiawe wood underneath it. And not to mention putting the cooked chicken into individual bags for those purchasing the chickens. Enter Popolo Bois, as owner Stuart set up his food truck more than six years ago at the Breene Harimoto Manana County Park on Kuala St in Pearl City, next to 7-11. Its business name and color of his food wagon are a story by itself. "Popolo" means black ethnicity and "bois" is a slang for an alternate spelling of "boy." Stuart plays homage to his roots by painting his food truck and marker stone in the park, red, yellow and green. The colors signify the following: red = blood of people who died for freedom from slavery; yellow = color of gold that signifies wealth, love, and power; and green = natural beauty of the land in Africa. No need for lots of manpower, as Stuart is a one-man operation. He built his own portable contraption of skewing whole chickens on rods that huli on its own (pretty sure it's battery operated?). Stuart seasons his own chickens, skewers them, cooks and hulis them over kiawe wood, takes them off the heat once done, packages them, prepares rice and salad on the side, takes your orders and payments, and gives change. How is that all possible? Well, it is, because it's Stuart. For those who say that he appears to be unfriendly, he has a lot on his mind. He's multi-tasking, so I don't blame him if he doesn't feel like chatting with you, as he knows his chickens need to be tended to before they burn. When he has some free time in between or after all the cooking is done, he is very friendly and will talk up a storm. And he is amazing that he can do it all! But aside from that, his chickens are deliciously juicy, charred, and smoky just off the hot fire...and call it huli huli chicken if you wish, as that's what they are. You can get half or whole chickens as a plate lunch with 2 scoops rice and tossed salad or the chickens by themselves. I usually get the whole chickens to eat at home (ask for a discount if buying two or more), as usually have fresh rice at home. Yes, the juices of the chicken will coat the plastic bag which you can lick off or let it run into the chicken. The food truck is at the park on Sun, Wed, Thurs, and Sat from 10:30a to 6:00p; however, keep in mind that as sports games are played at the park, these chickens are a great draw for lunch and dinner for these families, and hence, the chickens may sell out sooner than expected. Lots of spaces to park on the side without blocking anyone. Cash only. In these post-Covid days, one has yet to see the recovery of huli huli chickens as fundraising events. In the meantime, Popolo Bois fills that void. So, when I'm in the Pearl City area, huli huli chicken it is! Support local!

    If like me, you've driven by this truck for YEARS and kept telling yourself that "one day I'll have to try that chicken"...well, I finally pulled into the parking lot and got some! The proprietor is super friendly and the service and chicken were GREAT! Take that turn into the parking lot and give it a try! DELICIOUS, doneness was spot on, and as I mentioned, service was great...(June 2025).

    We came on a random morning around 11:00am. There was no line, and our order was ready within a few minutes. Delicious huli huli chicken! It has a wonderful smokey flavor. A bit salty, but seasoned well. It's not the fall-off-the-bone saucy type, but very delicious in its own way. I'll be back!

    Does anyone know the days and location and times?

    We live near his location, this answer isn't 100% for sure. But from observation, he's usually there on weekends setting up about 9/10 and leaves around late afternoon depending when he sells out.

    Does anyone know Stu's (Popolo Boi) contact number? Was wondering if we could call and make takeout orders. Mahalo!

Very nice lady but is also unorganized and has no efficient system as a business owner. Wait times are longer because of this. She takes my cash but doesn't always give back my change right away, then will forget the amount of cash I've handed her. She often asks to be reminded of what you ordered, and when you think you're done ordering, she asks you to come back to the window to ask additional questions about your order. Instead of waiting until the entire order is complete, she brings out the plates at different times and has asked another customer to bring back the first half of their order and show her to make sure she doesn't give them extra food. She would benefit from using a simple receipt book so she doesn't have to rely just on memory and she can give the customers a numbered ticket to call when their order is ready. She only takes CASH or VENMO which is fine. But I have seen her take the order and make the food before the customer pays, and then get into conflict when the customer does not have any form of payment. Confirming payment first will save a lot of troubles. She's no longer in a fixed location, and now takes her truck to various spots around the island, mostly on base or Waipio. I recommend following her instagram but she unfortunately doesn't post her location until the day of. She doesn't post her schedule in advance, making it very hard to track her down. I used to come often when she was at the old Sear's parking lot. So it's been months until I finally had a day off and was relieved to find she was in Waipio -- just to find that her efficiency hasn't improved since the last time I came. I love that she's getting more business but I cannot keep coming back if this is the service every time. She definitely could use more helping hands.

Be prepared to wait around 45-60 minutes as it is just her and 1 kitchen crew. The wait was well worth it for the most delicious Nigerian food I've had on the island. Jollof Rice came with Oxtail & Jerk Chicken so we could try both and they were seasoned immaculately. The Jollof rice has some heat that builds as you eat it and the oxtail was a hefty piece. The jerk chicken had a nice spice & sear to it, it provided a nice balance to the fatty oxtail. There is also pieces of plantain that come with this plate. Fufu is neutral flavored pounded yam (comparable texture to a stickier mashed potato) - It pairs well with the smokey, earthy & spicy flavors of the Egusi Soup. The soup is very hearty and more akin to a stew with how much protein & veggies are in the bowl. My total came out to $51.00 for these three items.

It was spicy enough to get that "zing". The flavor of the dish was amazing! Even their strawberry lemonade was great. Will definitely stop by to try more of their dishes!

    Incredible home style Thai street food…read more Of course it's from a food truck situated in a residential neighborhood, open just three days a week where the Thai chef and her team / family work together freshly cooking up good eats. Aren't these the best kinds? There is a regular menu of typical staples ie pad Thai, pad see ew, and fried chicken wings that are all solid but you're here for the IG specials that change daily. Fishcakes and spring rolls make for solid snackables. Curries, outstanding. Only available Thursdays. Made in a limited batch with roots, herbs and spices crushed into a aromatic paste deeply seasoning the tender morsels of protein and melting veg. Balanced spice levels so as not to mask the flavors. Always a pleasing finish that goes on and on. Rice dishes, especially those finished with the signature crispy fried egg always a must. Crispy garlic pork, garlic beef, pork belly with crunchy gai lan (Chinese broccoli) just to name a few. Finally, noodle specials. The drunken noodles shine. Loaded with properly cooked protein of your choice, veg, and surprisingly a ton of mushrooms that act like a sponge sucking up the delicious seasoning. A brilliant addition to the perfect wok fried, wide noodles. IMPORTANT: Do check IG for holiday and last minute closures. Like all food trucks, do not go at the posted opening hours rather 15-20 minutes later to be sure they are ready. Cash or card. Visit after visit, always greeted with smiling faces and leaving with outstanding, satisfying grindz.

    Literally the best shrimp I ever had. Absolutely delicious!!…read more I don't say that lightly either. It was otherworldly!! The staff was great too!!!! I'll be back!

    I visited this famous spot last week while in Hawaii with my wife, and it honestly did not live up…read moreto the hype. We ordered the Spicy Shrimp and the Shrimp Scampi plates, and neither was impressive. The food came out almost instantly, which proves it is not cooked to order. Because it sits around, the shrimp is incredibly difficult to peel. Anyone who cooks shrimp knows that if you do not peel it right after cooking, the shell sticks to the meat, which was exactly the case here. The Spicy Shrimp had a decent kick, but it lacked actual flavor. The Shrimp Scampi was better but still bland. Honestly, 9 out of 10 shrimp places back home in Southern California make a better plate. To make things worse, the two ladies managing the truck were rude. My wife asked for extra napkins, not realizing some were already in the bag. The worker snapped back, "Are those not enough?" and made her feel super awkward. We also asked for a cup of ice to go with our canned sodas. They flatly refused and told us to ask another truck nearby. Luckily, the other truck owners were much nicer and gave us the ice. Save your time and money. There are much better, friendlier options out there.
