shrimp with garlic+butter, peeled. SO yummy!
Anastacia R.

If you want the most garlicky delicious shrimp then come here!! My husband and I both ordered the shrimp with garlic+butter, peeled (because we have a toddler and baby and can't peel them since we're wrangling them)...and WOWOWOWOW! SO so good! The shrimp is super tender, not ever cooked. Seasoning is spot on. I'll be craving this when I'm back at home. My daughter had the spam musubi and she had two of them! The musubi has a bit more rice than expected but my daughter loves rice so it didn't matter. Service was fast! Definitely a food truck to visit!! Tables near truck for perfect seating! Just be aware--tons of birds and chickens.

Garlic Butter Shrimp and Pineapple Shrimp
Volha A.

We stopped by Shrimp Paradise a few times during our stay and consistently had good meals. The combo plate with kalua pork and garlic butter shrimp was solid -- the pork was tender and the shrimp perfectly cooked in garlicky goodness. The Pineapple Shrimp Plate was a nice mix of sweet and heat, and the Garlic Butter Shrimp Plate was simple but tasty. Portions were good, and service was friendly each time. Overall, a reliable food truck in Princeville if you're looking for shrimp plates and local-style comfort food. Would definitely go back.

Head on shrimp butter garlic
Aleesa G.

I love shrimp and this food truck had full flavor shrimp fried garlic butter shrimp and spicy due to the fryer not working we didn't get to get the coconut shrimp but the following day we made sure to come back and try the head on shrimp as well . The food is made to order and made sure that was known especially since you will be waiting with a line . Don't be thrown off when your GPS has you going into a community / hotel area because the truck is in a middle of that. Seating area in front of the food trucks perfect to stay in eat or go back and eat .

Combo plate and garlic butter shrimp plate
Kayla C.

Easy to find food truck, right where it was said to be on Yelp! The garlic butter shrimp are definitely the stay of the show. We also got a combo plate to try the pork and I honestly wasn't a huge fan so my husband ate all of it. It was super Smokey if you're into that, and didn't come with any sauce to my knowledge. My husband just dipped it in the extra garlic butter. Didn't see any children size on the menu so we just got two adult dishes and shared with our two year old. Where the food trucks sit there was plenty of picnic tables, but didn't notice any trash cans.

Garlic shrimp plates and spicy shrimp tacos.
Rebecca D.

Grabbed dinner here to take along while we caught the sunset--and wow, it did not disappoint! The garlic shrimp plates and shrimp taco dinner were absolutely delicious. We rushed all the way from Lihue to make it before closing, and honestly, the garlic shrimp was so good we almost forgot about the sunset. Fresh, flavorful, and definitely worth the trip!

I had the pork tacos which were crispy and flavorful. The salsa was fresh. Delicious! Seems to be the going price for a food truck meal.

The food wasn't really very good, and there wasn't any flexibility on menu items. I wouldn't recommend.

Wake Up Delicious - Full order of Churro French Toast (Breakfast with a View)

Wow! So sad we waited so long to try this place during our stay in Hanalei…read more Let's just rate it already. 10/10. Absolutely amazing. Good was some of the best I've ever had. The Churro French Toast is life changing. Full order can easily feed 3-4 people. Crispy, sweet, yet soft and tasty inside. Best description is a combination of a churro, mixed with a cinnamon roll, mixed with a donut. Would highly recommend. They offer a half portion too which is great for 2 people to share. The breakfast burritos are legit. Massive, tasty, delicious, and filling. About the same size and width as a 32oz Yeti bottle. Ordered the veggie burrito with bacon and the Smoked Pork burrito. Loved both. Tots, veggies, cheese, meat, all loaded. Even the salsas were 10/10. Seating is limited, maybe enough for 8-10 people total to sit inside, but they take to go orders and you can walk 5 minutes to Hanalei beach and eat by the ocean. TLDR - Try it, you won't be disappointed.

Absolutely delicious and such a beautiful experience!…read more We had the Garlic Shrimp and the Churros French Toast, and both were incredible! Let me tell you the garlic shrimp was amazing! The shrimp was cooked to perfection: juicy, tender, and coated in the most delicious garlic sauce. Every bite was so flavorful! The Churros French Toast was actually one of the reasons we came here because it's so popular, and it absolutely did not disappoint! It looks like it would be super sweet, but surprisingly, it's not. It's perfectly crunchy on the outside, moist in the middle, and just the right amount of sweetness. So delicious! And to top it all off, you get to enjoy this fantastic food with a beautiful Kauai view. Overall, such a wonderful experience. If you're visiting Kauai, I highly recommend putting Wake Up Delicious on your list you won't be disappointed!

Such a nice restaurant right by the pool! We started with the kampachi and Wagyu Merguez, both were…read moredelicious! For our entrees, we got the truffle pasta and the snapper. The snapper wasn't too fishy and had a really good sauce, but I definitely enjoyed the pasta more! We ended with the chocolate dessert since we were celebrating my birthday and that was probably the best part!! So good. Service was awesome, our server was kind and attentive. I'd definitely come back for the vibes, view, and good food! The menu is a little small, but everything we tried was tasty and did not disappoint.

Exceptional service from Aleah, Hiílanií, Branden & Kyle!…read more The bartenders at Sandbox at 1 Hotel Hanalei are truly outstanding. Every time I'm there, they manage to stay calm, composed, and professional even when things get busy, while still making every guest feel welcomed and taken care of. Aleah, Hiílanií, Branden, and Kyle each bring such a warm, inviting personality to the experience. They're attentive without being overbearing, genuinely friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable. You can tell they care about creating a great experience, not just serving a drink. Their ability to maintain that level of hospitality under pressure is impressive and really sets them apart. They make Sandbox feel relaxed, welcoming, and special. A fantastic team and a true reflection of the hospitality you hope for at 1 Hotel Hanalei. Highly recommend!

How is it that I have never reviewed my favorite Sushi Bar on and off island? Yikes!…read more I'm fortunate to live on island and make every opportunity to get my sushi fix here. This place has the freshest and most well prepared sushi, sashimi and "omakase" (chefs choice original roll). Omakase is ALWAYS out of this world no matter which chef came up with that nights special. The fish is always super fresh so they don't need to drown it in sauces. The flavors pop pop pop with every chew. Amazing! Some of my favorites are the scallop sashimi (incredibly fresh every time), chili hamachi, uni (sea urchin-not for everyone) and always omakase roll or two. Also, if artichoke is in season I like the steamed one, a cup of chowder always hits the spot, pretty killer tempura, really great fish and chips and I know I'm missing a bunch of stuff but now I'm salivating and need to wrap this review up so I can drive over. I don't eat in the restaurant part so much but that's because I'm a total hound for the sushi. When I have it's always great. Don't skip dessert!

We ate it so many nice restaurants and this was one of my favorite meals of our recent trip!…read more We started with the baked artichoke, then split three rolls (Fire cracker, Next best thing, Sunset) and had this incredible banana ice cream cake for dessert!!!! The rolls were incredible!!!! And the presentation was pretty:) our server was super sweet too! The views outside are so beautiful too to relax and enjoy drinks! This is gonna be a staple spot on all of our future Kauai trips!
