    Pasta salad that comes with po boy
    Gary R.

    Found him in Wahiawa tonight in the Dots parking lot. Had the chicken gumbo and the catfish po boy. The gumbo was delicious, dark, not to thick and the right amount of heat. I will definitely order it again. The catfish po boy was ono, two large pieces, slaw and again the right amount of heat. I hope he comes back next week because his food was ono.

    This was my first visit. I passed by their wagon & saw it open, so I looked them up here on yelp. I wanted to try the grilled shrimp po'boy sandwich but I got the fried shrimp po'boy sandwich instead. It came with a side, so my husband got me the pasta salad. I haven't had Cajun food in almost 10 years, so it was like a new experience to me all over again. I enjoyed my sandwich very much. Very spicy. It goes perfectly with the pasta salad. I do plan on going back to try their different sandwiches & I definitely recommend them if you are in Ewa Beach.

    Chicken jambalaya and Mac and cheese

    I really wanted to like the food I ordered today. I hate writing not great reviews, but I felt it was needed. We ordered the fresh oyster special plate that came with Mac and cheese and chicken jambalaya. We also ordered the grilled shrimp Po'boy that came with a side of jambalaya. Fresh oyster special plate: The oysters were fried in quite a lot of batter, but overall with the sauce was good. Mac and cheese: There was not enough cheese or flavoring. It tasted like cooked macaroni with a slight hint of cheese for flavoring. Jambalaya: The rice was flavorless. It seemed to have been cooked without the sauce vs stewed with the sauce. There were very, very small shreds of chicken. The best part was the 1 grilled shrimp, which was flavored very well. Grilled shrimp po'boy: The grilled shrimp was the best part! It was the same as the one included in my jambalaya. There was more cold slaw than I expected. Overall, I would only order the grilled shrimp from here again unless there's a significant change in flavor for all of the above dishes.

    BOMB. The food hit the spot, the guy making it was fast, kind and genuine. Much aloha! This place is a must. We had shrimp po boy sandwiches, w a side of pasta and jambalaya

    Legit good food

    Sherod is the chef at the Kajun Connection ... and he is legit. I asked them to be a part of our event because another vendor had to bail at the last minute. I was worried about late additions, but they pulled through on all levels with flying colors. The only issue was that because we got them so late he didn't have the time to make his famous gumbo for our event which I know everyone was bummed about and wanted to try. Well, we just have to bring him again next time then :) We tried his grilled shrimp po' boy ... and asked him to hold the bread (we aren't doing bread right now) he tossed in a couple extra shrimp and the side slaw was outta this world. He knows how to cook, and I know, I have a chef in my house too. The flavors were layered with the acidity, the savory, the sauce for the shrimp all so delicious. I heard his food was good, and it did not disappoint. Thank you Chef Sherod. Yummy Yum Yum. OH, and they even brought chairs and tables to the event for their guests to sit. Soooo thoughtful.

    Shrimp po

    I found this truck while trying to figure out amongst a line of food trucks what to have for lunch. As I took a second look at the menu, the chef asked if I'd figured out what I was gonna get, and I asked how the shrimp po boy was--so glad I did! I was three bites in before I remembered to get a pic, but the flavor was amazing! Freshly fried shrimp that were plump and juicy, and I was happily surprised by the kick of spice from the slaw! And all on a slightly sweet, toasted bun. Absolutely worth the stop! I wish I'd tried the pasta salad, but maybe next time!

    Gumbo!! Delish!

    Yummmmmm!!!! Five stars as far as food trucks go. This guy is EXTREMELY friendly. Great service! He can get busy at times, so there can be a wait. Maybe 5 -10 minutes. My favorite is fried shrimp po boy sub gumbo for chips. Shrimp is cooked with a perfect crunch. The bread is toasted with butter. Oh yum. The sauce - oh the sauce!!! Can't get a po boy without the side sauce. Makes sure you don't forget it. It forgot it once, and I was a little sad that my po boy sandwich was missing that flavor, but I was still happy. The gumbo is loaded up and comes with a scoop of jasmine rice at the bottom. Sooooo much flavor!!! Filled with veggies and meat. Super spicy! Flavor spicy and temperature spicy! We also got a side of pasta salad, which I could do without. It wasn't bad but compared to the flavors of everything else, you don't need to get the pasta salad. Whenever I see this food truck I get so excited. Worth it!!

    Last August, when I was 8 months pregnant and had just moved back to O'ahu from the Big Island, I…read morewas scrolling Instagram and came across a local plate lunch truck called The Pupu Princess. I hit follow right away -- and when I saw they were nearby, I waddled my very pregnant self over to grab a plate. I ordered their Combo Plate: two scoops rice sprinkled with furikake, crab potato salad, fried noodles, and two proteins. I chose garlic fried chicken and teri beef. It was so good I actually cried a little. Living on the Big Island, everything was so far, and I couldn't satisfy my cravings easily -- so finally having a real plate lunch felt like comfort and home all at once. I hadn't been back since, mostly because they don't have a set schedule, and whenever they were close by, Bubba would be napping or I'd find out too late. But today, I finally got to go again -- and this time I brought Bubba. And she remembered me. "Weren't you pregnant last time?" she said. Such a small thing, but honestly an amazing memory and such a warm customer experience. Bubba and I had a little sidewalk picnic together. He tried fried noodles for the first time, loved the teri beef, and of course devoured the rice -- his forever favorite. I saved half the plate for my boyfriend since he's working. It felt like such a full-circle moment... sharing with my son the exact plate lunch that made me cry (in the best way) when I was pregnant with him.

Got there this time after 11:00 am. I think it was about 11:20. I was 3rd in line ordering. I ordered the after school special plate includes 5 rolls taegu Kim chee sushi rolls and 4 pieces boneless fried chicken. The rolls were tasty and the fried chicken was crispy skin and a lightly salted. Told the girl inside the truck we looked for you guys last week thursday and you guys wasn't there. She started to laugh explaining why they weren't there but I cut her off and said that day we came back 3 times couldn't find them we went home. LOL. Took a picture of their menu. If you in the area, stop by. Support them. They make everything fresh it's about a 20 min wait. P.S. They only open Tuesday through Friday 11-3pm.

Hubby was able to stop by there to grab us late lunch/early dinner before he was closed for the day. The wait was a bit long because it's a one-man show. But the wait was pretty worth it.

For months my boyfriend had been wanting to try these smash burgers, but he works during the day--and I honestly didn't think they'd survive the wait until he got home. Thankfully, we finally got to try them together, and it was so worth it. This is a true one-man operation, so it does take a bit of time to place your order--but trust me, the wait pays off. My boyfriend got the OG Smash Burger and immediately regretted not adding an extra patty... or ordering a second burger altogether. I went with the Pineapple Express, and as my very first smash burger experience? I was obsessed. Pro tip: get your own fries. You will not want to share. You will side-eye the other person. And yes, it could absolutely start a fight over who ate more. Adrian's Smash Burger is open Monday-Friday, 10 AM-3 PM. For weekend hours, check their Instagram. Support local--and don't forget to bring cash.

Love that they put the spice level beside each item for a heads up the staff here is nice and as they were more flooded with orders than I realized as they do take phone orders it did take a bit for my order. Since I was dining right there among the bench it didn't need to be separated and loved that it was served on a tray along with a side of kimchee yum the ramyun had a soft cooked egg and some carrots a nice and simple snack which gave me much needed boost though as it was basically no different than a bowl of instant noodle this was crazy overpriced and glad that I didn't get the soft tofu which was $13.50 which I didn't need that type of spice in my life.

I then noticed it was back again this morning! I looked up the name on Instagram and found out they were serving up Mexican food! My hubby loves Mexican so we had to try it out. First off, the customer service was amazing! They talked story with us, asked tons of questions about what we wanted in each order since everything is made to order. Here's what we got: 1. Beef Nachos: we ordered the small portion but this was HUGE! It has cheese, choice of beef or chicken, onions, cilantro, & sour cream. My hubby loves nacho cheese so he loved this! There was a generous portion of beef on top too. 2. Cheese Quesadilla: this was actually a kids quesadilla but it was definitely a regular sized one! It was simple with just cheese & tortilla but, they did not skimp on the cheese. It was THICK! 3. Chicken Burrito: this was definitely the star of the show! It was HUGE! Hubby and I shared it and couldn't finish it. It was stuffed with pico, flavorful chicken, cheese, sour cream, beans & rice. It was messy but sooo good! Highly recommend! Overall, it's dangerous how often and close they are to where we live! We'll definitely be back!

And he assured me that if I'm not satisfied he would fully refund me. So I waited..... when I was called he showed me my order- carne Asada fries, and let me tell you... it can feed more than a family of 4.

It was sure good to be back, and I am happy for their business to have its own place where customers can sit, not just takeout. They are now located near West Loch station by Mickey D's and Seafood City [the shops West Loch station). I live in Honolulu but it was sure worth it to take the rail to satisfy my sisig craving. I ordered their pork sisig with rice, and it sure was still delish! Pro tip for the business is using calamansi instead of lemon (but still good!). My order seems like it is for just one person but honestly, if you share it with another person, you'd still be satisfied because it is stomach-heavy! If you didn't have much to eat throughout the day, you could easily demolish the sisig dish I ordered. For drinks, they have canned sodas inside for $2.00 but I decided to get some smoothies at Hang's just doors down the place. As the parking spot may fill up, you can always drop a buddy off to pick up some to-go order. I have yet to try some of their other dishes such as their beef pares noodles. So--if you are craving ramen--try switching it up and get some of their noodles! I also recommend getting bulk orders for parties! Mahalo and I hope this business continues to reap success!

I ordered their pork sisig with egg which cost me about $23 including tip. I'd say it was worth the cost given the portion size and the deliciousness of the pork sisig. The one thing I did not like was the Rice my plate came with. It was very wet and mushy which sucked because it killed the enjoyment of the pork sisig for me. Also, service from the cashier was not very friendly when I asked her a question, maybe she was not having a good morning. Idk. Anyways aside from that, everything else was good. Location is easy to get too, lots of convenient parking outside and dining area was very clean and up to date trendy. I do have plans to return to try their beef pares! That looks Ono too. Hope I get a better experience next time. It wasn't that bad of an experience, so I'd still recommend this place to friends and family because their pork sisig was delicious! Make sure to squeeze the lemon on top gives it extra flavor.
