We have been amazed by the amount of food truck options the island has to offer. For every meal, he didn't want to search for a really good food truck that offered unique and local flavors. During a drive on Kamehameha highway we came across multiple food truck parks. One that caught our eye was the park with this food truck - simply because of the uniqueness that they had to offer. Everything on their menu was customizable and great when you have a further travel that has dietary restrictions. I ended up tasting their taro burger with chicken and taro fries. The bunnies unique they make it in house fresh every day. In all the experience was just amazing. I do recommend you stopping by this food truck for a quick bite if you're on this road trip and visiting the island. And if you're a local, you already know of this place and probably are a regular already!

Pleasantly surprised! Will definitely come back to try more in their menu + Food: I love their burger: so juicy and well- seasoned. I tend to not like when burgers are oily but this one doesn't feel like that at all. Their buns are made from taro but I didn't get a strong taro taste. They were out of the taro fries then but would love to come back to try. + Vibe: it's located in a food truck park with plenty of parking in a lot. Plenty of tables to sit as well. Service wasn't too slow.

Taro Fries
Xin L.

I'm going to keep this short and sweet: I love taro, so my friend and I just stopped here to grab their taro fries. Man these are AMAZING they gave us so much and it HIT. It was like a better version of sweet potato fries. You must get this if you like fries and/or taro. I would LITERALLY drive to Kahuku from town JUST to get this.

Really great burger! Found that the buns hold better without veggie toppings. Taro fries are a must! Service was quick and seating was nice and shady

Chicken
Rebecca C.

Taro burger bun was very delicious and tasty! The burger itself was a smash burger and it was so rich and tasty with arugula and grilled onions! The fried chicken sandwich was very standard, and it had fresh veggies on it. The taro fries were crispy and thick, very filling. Outdoor seating. Plenty of dirt lot parking. Quick service, burgers made fresh to order!

Da Fun Guy - vegetarian style
Leslie M.

This place is a hidden gem. We came when we were visiting the area and we wanted a vegetarian option. We ordered da fun guy with the double taro patty and this burger was amazing!! The taro fries were very good as well. One burger was enough for both my husband and I. I highly recommend visiting. Food truck style and sit at the picnic tables.

Taro Hut popped up in my Yelp feed while we were in the North Shore looking for new spots to try. annddd I'm so glad it did! Since we just wanted to try Taro Hut we only ordered one item. #TaroEats: ~ HUT BURGERS: DA BOMB BACON - 5/5 This was one of the best and Unique Burgers I had... Beef Patty, Cheese, Crispy Bacon, Lettuce, Tomato and Pickles Grilled Onions. Whats not to like? A perfectly done burger with an exotic Island flavor profile. Everything just worked so well together. That Toasted Ube bun takes it to different level. I'll most definitely be back to try their other items...

Yummy burger
Kim B.

They were packed over the weekend but we managed to get some grub in. Burger and fries goes well all around. We got just that but to our surprise no taro burger bun. I guess they ran out. The regular bun did the work of the taro bun too. The burger was juicy and the fries were tasty. I think the sauce for the fries was a tad sweet for my taste, but hey, just use ketchup or eat them plain. No worries It was fun and was made pretty quickly. Will return

My hubby wanted a burger so he ordered the spicy Hawaiian. It took a few minutes but finally the food came out and it is definitely worth the wait. The burger is juicy and the taro bun is yummy and the grilled pineapple on it just so juicy and the spicy sauce just added to perfection.

Da Bomb Burger and Taro Fries. They are bomb!
Aaron A.

I got da bomb burger and I liked it a lot. Tasted great - juicy, flavorful, and slight sweetness from the taro bun. French Fries were really good as well - taro fries were interesting so to speak. Should definitely try! The guys running the hut are also friendly and cool~ Def worth 5 stars!!

Really unique and Hawaiian experience. We had the burgers with the taro patty. The service was friendly and fairly quick. The taro fries and the Spicy Hawaiian burger were the highlights. Simply delicious! The setting was in a cluster of food trucks which was a lot of fun to take in. There are facilities (bathrooms) nearby and parking is plentiful.

First time trying this place after following them for sometime now on Instagram! So fresh and so ono. Service was fast and friendly. We can't wait to try this spot again! Keep up the great grinds!

Palusami bowl (vegan) taro leaves, root, and coconut milk
Sha G.

Taro aka kalo is a special food. It's nutritious from the root to the leaf. The taro hut brings taro to the main stage and the dance on your tastebuds is memorable. The food truck had no line and the food came out hot and fast. There are taro buns and taro slices, but the star for me is the palusami plate (vegetarians, vegan, and gluten free). The taro is cooked soft and then topped with melt in your mouth taro leaves. This is all saturated in the best coconut milk in your life. There's no canned stuff here. I was told that this is a Samoan preparation and I'm ready for more! The plate looks small but it is very filling. This is not to be missed. In fact, I loved it more than anything else I've eaten in the area.

Hubby found this place and this lilac Filipino food truck is tucked all the way at the back…read more We ordered the special of the day which is the Wafu Steak, NY steak was cooked medium well with caramelized onions and shoyu glazed. The beef cut and onions reminded me of the classic Filipino beef steak but this one does not have vinegar or is not sour, it also leans more on the sweeter and savory teriyaki side. It has 2 scoops of rice, and a side salad. Chey Jay, the owner was helpful and friendly. Service was fast. No complaints! They only accept Venmo or cash. Go check them out if you are in the area. It's the only lilac truck at Sugar Mill tucked all the way at the back.

I was…read moreinterested in trying their teri beef but I'm a sucker for specials and today was something called Wafu steak. I honestly thought it was wagyu misspelled but it's actually based on a type of sauce explained to me as sweet and savory. It was a plate lunch with 2 scoops rice, NY steak, and a side salad. The steak was cooked pretty well but after eating maybe 2 or 3 pieces I stopped. This is the kind of plate that gets better with time so I left it for a few hours and was not disappointed that the sauce marinaded more into the steak. Service was quick even with plate made to order. The only thing is you pay with cash or vendor. I do hope they have a card reader soon. If you're turned off by the shrimp truck line or want something filipino hawaiian fusion, come here and taste the good food they have!

We were welcomed into the small hole-in-the-wall restaurant in a neighborhood strip mall by a young woman named Telani. Telani could not have been more excited to tell us everything there was to know about the entire menu and the history of the family who owned it. Telani was so genuinely interested in us and asked question after question that made us feel like we were celebrities that had just walked into a small town diner. Telani is the star of this story, but I want to mention that the other two employees left a positive impression as well, amazing service is clearly a culture at this restaurant. Our shake took a little longer than usual because they were accommodating a young boy with a severe peanut allergy. At the end of our meal, Telani walked over and handed us a personalized postcard that she had written to commemorate our visit! This 17-year-old medical student at BYU Hawaii just put my own customer service expectations to absolute shame. I cannot wait to get back to my hotel staff and share this story and hopefully inspire them to start writing some postcards of their own. I've just finished writing one of my own. P.S. All the food was AMAZING! We got the Shez's paniolo burger, the Sterlings teriyaki burger, the paniolo fries, the banana bread, and a vanilla shake with Nutella and Oreo. Gonna have to hit the hotel treadmill hard tomorrow.

My husband initially wanted to take me out to a nice place for our anniversary and he had the…read moreCrouching Lion in mind. I had Roy's Beach House in mind. He relented and agreed to stop by Crouching Lion after Roy's just to get the bug out of his system, since we've both never been to the original Crouching Lion, now with a new owner after 2020. We have both never been to Roy's Beach House or Lion before, good thing we came here first (read my dismal review for C.L.)! I warned him that it was going to be expensive here, with some reviewers reporting $160 for lunch (thank you to those who mention the price, which I find is sorely lacking in reviews lately - guess everyone's a millionaire and price doesn't matter). RESERVATIONS: We didn't make any via Open Table (not my favorite platform). We were able to get a seat at opening time of 1130 AM on a Saturday in Sept. Less than 10 minutes wait. Judging by the outfits of everyone before us, they just stepped off the beach or casually sauntered in. PARKING: on the grounds of the Turtle Bay Ritz-Carlton. Valet park with validation or find parking in the lot, which is free (beach access) and walk a short distance. Roy's is not inside the hotel itself, but a free-standing business off to the side, right on the beach. AMBIANCE: Beach vibes with shorts and T shirts. We wore aloha attire because it was our special day. Open air dining with umbrellas or indoor patio dining to open air. Loved the ocean breezes from our beach-front view. Live music which was very good added to the tropical ambiance! SERVICE: Wells was our server, 5-star all the way!! We mentioned it was our anniversary and at the end she brought out a scoop of sherbet with "Happy Anniversary" written in chocolate in Hawaiian, too cool!! All of the other servers were very attentive, waters refilled, used dishes removed promptly. Never a wait for anything. DRINKS: all excellent!! Habanero Margarita ($18 - 4/5 buzz rating): I don't balk at the prices of cocktails anymore, since it's the standard to pay crazy prices. This one was worth it, super smooth, spicy as heck (your choice of habanero, japapeno or chipotle), great taste, super fresh drink. Yummy! Roy's Beach House so far has the highest buzz rating of any restaurant I've been (except for Cheeky Tiki in Kona and ), and it's not only the empty stomach talking either. Their stuff is quality. Pineapple Infused Martini ($18 - 4/5 buzz rating): Fresh pineapples sitting in vodka for 10 days, mixed up and chilled w/ other ingredients, amazing! My husband ordered this and I got a sip, which was super delicious. Roy's signature are the infused pineapples, which I have seen at other locations. Nice. APPETIZERS: Calamari ($25): our least favorite thing here. Breaded in mochiko and deep fried. Teeny tiny pieces, with a white aioli sauce. Disappointing for the price, will skip this if we ever come back. Go to Haleiwa Beach House for the best calamari, hands down! The white sauce was also blah. Haleiwa Beach House serves their deep fried, meaty calamari with a spicy nuoc cham sauce, which I love. Fish Tacos - two pieces ($20): our favorite appetizer, as recommended by Wells, and some passing wait staff. Delicious, fresh!! Both were on a flour tortilla with fresh veggies and catch of the day (swordfish). Very light, not very filling but loved it. We are still craving this. MAINS: Lobster Roll ($40): My husband's order. I tried a bite, very delicious! Side of thick-cut fries. The roll was not very greasy, which was nice. More lobster than bread, which was a nice touch. Medium sized. Misoyaki Glazed Salmon ($36): Namul vegetables, wasabi butter and black rice. Very nice dish with a medium-portioned size of Salmon fillet, which was cooked just right and very delicious. PRICE: Total Cost before tip: $195 (rounded up). If you're trying to add up from what we ordered above, don't...we ordered more drinks! RETURN FACTOR: Will definitely come back for drinks and the fish tacos, will skip the calamari next time.

Unfortunately the nostalgia of this place might of worn off. This place was not what I remembered it to be. This is, as the name implies, a beach house right at the beach. The location is adjacent to the hotel and next to the infamous place to enjoy snorkeling. A super casual place to grab a drink or some food. Unfortunately for me maybe too causal, especially when paying premium dollar. The drinks were a bit pricey for the quality and serving size. And the taste was just ok. I guess you pay for the location and the name behind the restaurant. The service was cordial. Nothing outstanding but attended to our needs. If you are seeking a place directly on the beach, this may fit your bill. If you seeking sunsets, better drink and service try the sunset bar st this hotel. Cheers!

It was still too early to go home so we called it Pau Hana Time!!! we both needed drinks, even though it was still lunchtime, but why not we both control our own business. There is this quaint little bar nearby so we went straight there! We was greeted by two ladies, and one of them is the bartender name Kanani. She's an excellent bartender who knows how to be super friendly like if we were all best friends. She is definitely one of the main reasons why we go there often. I enjoy this little bar because of the view of the golf course. The bar itself is an open restaurant so you can feel the cool breezes of the tradewinds. I've been coming to this bar ever since the first time I started golfing, ever since the dinosaurs ruined the Earth, lmao! Just kidding! We had several beers and $15 French Fries?! You do get a decent amount even with the both of us eating it. It was very filling. It's amazing every time we go there there's always several happy people who are very friendly to talk to, and that's one of the reasons why the bar is a wonderful place for both locals and tourists to enjoy. Although I haven't eaten at the restaurant recently, I do remember when I did try the restaurant the food was very well prepared and seasoned just right. I think maybe next we come here we gotta try out their food menu!
