Loved the sauce it was coated in! I think we'd trade the pork belly to try the TriTip next time, it was still very good still! Brisket was also amazing! Because we saved the brisket for last, it was so much meat and perfect for two meat lovers lol Their corn and baked beans weren't anything to go crazy for, but definitely made the plate feel more whole- wish they put more with how much meat we received. For reference, we tried their truck at an event in Waikiki (on Kalakaua Ave). Because of the location of the event and with how crowded it was, it was a bit hard to figure out where to order as everyone was clumped together- but they managed to keep everything organized and remind people where to stand.

The serious grindz…read more.. I was so happy to have Jackie driving us down to Wai Kai and knowing at the same time there was their usual even every Thursday night which is the Ono Grindz and Makeke at Wai Kai 4p-8p as it's filled with various small biz gathering on the lawn as the sun sets browsing around was just fun and when I finally decided on Hometown BBQ it's because I knew exactly what I wanted. Creating a menu is very difficult and with this market circumstances it can be difficult since there's not a lot of tables and many menus are handwritten with price so I don't have samples of size or plating as I was afraid if I would be able to carry it around without making a mess. Thankfully though here I wanted the Esquites which is basically corn, beans, beef, sour cream and bbq sauce. I asked if it came in a bowl but it was a container so very transportable but very hot as well and large omg which still made it a challenge to carry around. The service here is fast and friendly and as I took a few bites from it it was delicious a tad bit salty for my personal taste but really enjoyed all the layers of flavors it had and didn't expect it to be that enormous. Great to support our small local biz while getting something unique is fun and being in our hometown is the best. Thank you!

Donnie's Bbq was one of the food trucks at Waikele tonight from 4-8. As soon as I saw the special:…read morefried Catfish, I had to try it! The catfish was seasoned perfectly, not a lot of batter either. The baked beans were so good. My mama can cook some baked beans but these were fire. Shhhh don't tell my mama. My husband had the turkey leg. He said it was flavored good. And he loved it. Only thing he said negative was it was a little cold in the middle. Not freezing cold, but definitely wasn't hot like it came out of the grill. We had to wait 15 minutes for it to be done so the outside was hot but not the middle next to the bone. We aren't ones to complain so we let it ride. I also want to know if the collard greens were home cooked or canned. I cook collard greens all the time so I just wasn't sure if these were fresh. They were still good though. I'll definitely be visiting Donnie's again for that bomb catfish. Thank you.

Holy Hoagies was one of many vendors at the event and I am so grateful I had the opportunity to taste their incredible food. Full confession, I ate dessert first. I love peach cobbler, I even make it myself, so I may have a certain preference when it comes to peach cobbler. Let me tell you just how perfect their peach cobbler is. Their peach cobbler is sold in a glass jar. This made it easy to handle while it was hot and fresh. While some places sell cobbler in a small disposable foil pan, the glass jar is sturdy and reusable, love it! Layer upon layer, their peach cobbler had peaches in every delightful spoonful. They have the perfect balance of peach to cobbler. In my humble opinion, this was a special treat that wasn't overly sweet nor overly rich...it was indeed, a Holy balance with zero guilt. Now for my hoagie, I ordered the Royal 808 with all the fixins! Holy smokes, it was a huge generous portion, easily three meals for me! An excellent combination of Ribeye, ground beef, and Italian sausage. So flavorful! The balance of cheese, onions, and peppers took this to higher level of yummy! This husband and wife team are so adorable too. Fantastic friendly service, cookin it up together, truly a Holy blessing! Thank you for this delicious meal. I will be sure to return!

I was told the "young girl" seems to now be running the lunch wagon. Loved my plate lunch because the Pinakbet had a lot of pumpkin & eggplant. Also included some okra, long beans bittermelon. I actually like bittermelon so could have used more and appreciated that it did not have a lot of lechon. The rice was a bit mushy though. The Filipino items are only available on certain days. Rotating menu, but a lot of standard daily menu options.

You can't go wrong with a $6 breakfast from here! They accept cash and cards which is a big plus! I've only had their portuguese sausage and bacon, but it sure was good! They give you 2 strips of bacon per order and 7 pieces of sausage. 2 scoops rice, 2 eggs however you want it cooked, and 2 orders of meat. Definitely would eat here again! It's really easy to miss if you aren't looking for it. Since I went super early (5am) there wasn't any lighting except for what's coming out of the wagon. If you're ever in Campbell industrial and want some breakfast, be sure to stop by! You won't regret it.

Aaaahhhhh, there are few better ways a restaurant can make a first impression! My better half and I chose to get some take out to eat on the beach and enjoy the beautiful sunset. The sunset was beautiful but the food made our evening! We ordered a shrimp/noodle plate ($10) and a steak/fish plate ($14). The shrimp were fairly basic... Simple, but excellent! I actually wasn't a huge fan of the noodles, but my better half thought they were outstanding. We ordered the steak with LIGHT seasoning and it tasted perfect (I tend to like salty things, but had been warned that they tend to go very heavy on seasoning)...the steak was deliciously marinated and cooked just right! Finally, the star of the night was the fish! It was a huge piece of red snapper that was perfect! It tasted super fresh and made an otherwise good meal great!

Went from being the best ive had in a while to "omg so salty", "this is so dry", and "is this even steak?" The cooking method is inconsistent for four tries now, and I was being generous with forgiveness on taste. Seriously though, the amount of sodium on the chicken ruins the crispy reason why I even came to give it another shot. The steak went from flavourful to nothing to almost not cooked. I cannot understand how hard it is to cook consistently with a time and seasoning...its chicken damn it. For anyone thinking I should just learn, I got it. Its just convenience like any other reason to eat out. The fish though...top notch stuff. Furikake ahi was bomb.dotcom.

Bomb-looking food, but not so bomb-tasting…read more My mom was inspired to place a New Years' Eve order from Kapakahi Grindz thanks to her co-worker, so she texted me to order a 20 pc spicy ahi bomb tray and a dozen pasteles ($95 total). So I did by texting the number, and communication was amazing. I pulled up to the meet-up location in Wahiawa at the designated time, and the order was packaged nicely. I'm sad to say that the spicy ahi bombs were too salty for my family's taste, and the pasteles were too bland. Spicy ahi was frozen, which I actually didn't mind because fresh ahi is really hard to come by these days. However, I don't think that the price was justifiable for the quality. Don't think I'll order from them again, but it was nice to try. 2.5/5.

Brisket time! First off, calling in my order went well, good communication, FRIENDLY. Location was easy to find as I am familiar with Campbell Industrial Park growing up wesside. Cost was fair because making a good brisket takes time and talent. Ordered a pound of brisket and 3 pieces of teriyaki chicken. The chicken was good, tasty. The brisket was soft, flavorful, delicious. What was the surprise winner with my family??? The brisket bbq sauce. Didn't think a sauce was gonna be the show stealer but everyone raved. So obviously there is a great balance in taste here. Well done. I wholeheartedly recommend. Until next day off...
