    Kalua pig cabbage w/ tossed salad
    Tara L.

    pretty standard home-cooked style plate lunch. while they dont have any social media or online presence (that i can tell) to find their menu/specials for the day, they can text you the menu in the morning. that way you can order in advance and pick it up when you're ready for lunch, and not have to wait. so super convenient! food is pretty tasty and they give quite a bit. much better pricing than zippys. def on the cheaper side as far as plate lunches go! when we're working at the airport we always go there for lunch. only place we eat now!

    Monday thru Friday from 1000 - 1100 AM, the big green Why'z truck is parked at the airport car rental area across the street from the overseas baggage claim. We know that good food takes time and we know how much people LOVE the ono grindz here and the reasonable prices so we call in our orders to help the brudduhs out who strive to please their crowd! Sure the wait can be bothersome for those who are impatient, but if you can make it work around your schedule and afford the guys enough time to perfect your dish, they will not disappoint!! **I've read some of the few star ratings and most was complaining about the wait yet still enjoyed some of the portions, had they not felt rushed I'm sure every portion would've been awesome.** I work at the airport and frequent the truck on weekdays. The guys send us a menu for the day and we submit a group order ahead of time so that when we break for lunch, our order is hot and ready! At times when it gets really busy, we wait a bit more but totally understandable. It's typically just the 2 brudduhs working the truck and they work hard to bring their best. Every different entree I have tried was delicious, their sandwiches are big and tasty, the guys are friendly and since the government shutdown they offer the federal workers credit. Our CBP, TSA, and USDA families at the airport impacted by the shutdown can still enjoy a good meal until the White House pays back what is owed. Big hearts these guys! Mahalo plenty for the hospitality and kanak attacks Why'z!!! We all appreciate you!

    I found this truck last night at Kapolei's Eat The Street. Since they had a line and ton of people surrounding the truck, I thought how bad can this be? Trucks with the biggest crowds tend to have the best food. I ordered the sampler, which consisted of half a lobster stuff crab, a dinosaur bone (large pork bone), two pieces of garlic butter shrimp, and 4-5 small pieces of steak...all for the bargain price of 20$ (that's sarcasm btw). The stuffed lobster was actually quite tasty and moist...priced at 16$ (price without all the other stuff)..is not worth it. The shrimp was ok as was the steak. However the dinosaur bone had flavors that were just way too strong. It was a bit dry. I took exactly two bites and had to dump the rest. Their biggest fault? Nope..not the dinosaur bone. It's the wait. I timed them..and it took exactly 15 minutes from the time that I paid to the moment they called my name and gave me my order. I wasn't the only impatient one. Everyone stood with arms crossed and saying "this is ridiculous" while staring at the folks in the truck. Normally 15 minutes isn't a long wait at a restaurant, but at a food truck festival, it's really too long. Folks like to buy a bite, eat and move on to the next truck. Since my family was hungry, they went on to see what else was available. By the time they had come back, they ate and were full. So much for eating together as a family... I'd be a bit more forgiving if they had told me it was going to take 15 minutes. Just sayin...

    Their hamburger steak is onolicious!

    Great local food at a very decent price. The food truck is in the airport area next to the car rentals, from 10 to 11am. Aurite!

Ladies in the counter were very friendly. We ordered 4 different types of hot taco. -fish taco - 10/10 - 4 beer battered fish with slaw and it was freaking delicious!

This is the true taco that you must try or have!!! You will not regret it! - steak tacos - 10/10 - the steak was perfectly executed and a traditional taco. Great way to end the meal!!!

Even though I arrived after the ready/prepared pick up time, I still had to wait 10 more minutes because they still had to put the order together. The price is quite steep, so again...glad I tried here but I won't be a returning customer.

They also looked good for value for the money as you get a lot of food! I decided on the Nothing Mayjah plate that had teriyaki beef, mac salad, two shrimp tempura, 3 pork hash, and fried noodles which covered the whole bottom of the plate. The actual plate looked very similar to the sample ones they had on a table in front the truck. The teriyaki beef slices had good flavor but were a bit dry as they were cooked ahead of time. The Mac salad had tuna and corn in it which was different. The shrimp tempura didn't seem to have well defined pieces of shrimp inside, more like batter with bits of ground up and reformed shrimp. The pork hash were great with good flavor. The noodles covered the whole bottom of the plate (no rice) and had green onions, char siu, and kamaboko. Unfortunately the noodles were bland and could have used more seasoning. I still enjoyed the plate and you can't beat the amount of food you get for the price. If a few things were improved on they would get 5 stars! I'd be happy to try other plates from them and see if the quality varies.

You get your moneys worth n' we even had leftovers. The shrimp was crispy n' delicious, the sliced ribeye was tasty n' had a good sweet sauce on it, the porkhash was moist n' flavorful (woulda been even more bomb if it came with the spicy shoyu sauce), the tuna mac with corn was a nice refreshing side, n' the char siu fried noodles complimented everything well. Definitely will be coming back again!

I remember going here when she first started at this location on Halawa Valley Road on the RIGHT side by the Animal Quarantine. Service is good. Food is good. I noticed authentic Pastele stew has a little more oil in it like this one. For me, looking at it the meat it had big pieces and soft too. A slight taste to it and it was good. Ambiance is like any food truck, wait in the sun and get your Vitamin D(sun) at the same time. It's really good to see that she is still doing it as others sadly disappear. Like 8 years??!!

Solid. --Anything "hamburger" - old school perfect. Thick, hand formed patties, just the right amount of fillers to keep it soft and moist. Solid in a plate or as a loco moco. Even butter in a soft, cheap, generic bun with a little ketchup as its only condiment. Get it with a slice of Kraft American cheese if you're feeling fancy. Basic and that's what makes it good. -- Roast pork (special) - Chunks of well braised pork butt with untrimmed fat swimming in a scratch made onion / mushroom gravy. Yup! Short and simple menu. Most items $14. Burgers $6. Cash / Venmo only. Located at the entrance to the Halawa animal quarantine. Super friendly owners. Amanda and Felix, you got this one right.

That's what I do love about this discovery at Makana Mkt at Ka Makana Ali'i where they have it twice a week and this Sunday from 11a-3p I found this cute little card and it was Aloha Poke Bar which is obvious is a mobile cart which is absolutely cute and does exactly that where the menu describes the offerings for the day which was Classic, Tornado and what I got is Volcano their version of the spicy ahi. Bowls come in two sizes and though my thoughts was large though I got the small which is just $13 and all bowls comes with white rice topped with the poke of your choice and it doesn't end there you get unlimited toppings and I believe there was six types to which I got the pickled red onions and crispy onions (I later realized they were both onions lol!) there was also ocean salad, pickled cucumbers, furikake. The gentleman asked if I wanted inamona and spicy sauce...uuuhh yes! Poke is obviously premade and the list of the ingredients are all in as well as my Volcano which I though for me personally wasn't spicy enough was made with mayo, sriracha chili sauce, sesame oil, and green onions and thankfully it didn't have much green onions which I don't like but hey it adds the flavor. Rice cooked just right and the toppings complimented it all to my happy belly and was a pleasant find on this gloomy rainy day as the service was nice and friendly which brought the vibe to another level at this cute little cart.
