Eh Brah! You call THAT chicken?!
Eh new food truck! Learn how to make a chicken sandwich! I went to your truck and ordered one of your $10 sandwiches and you looked at your partner to check if there was any chicken left. You should have just said no! Instead you gave me the saddest chicken breast I’ve ever seen. No […]

Mediterranean Grill Food Truck Haiku Maui serves Lebanese style food
I kept hearing great things about the Mediterranean Food Truck in Haiku from my friends who live and work nearby, so I scheduled a recent lunch meeting there.

Vanessa Ghantous says she is not a morning person but you can’t tell from her chipper greetings to her customers at her coffee food truck Gypsy Maui.

Eh Brah: Food trucks shouldn’t dump cooking oil like that!
Eh food truck: I saw your employee pour a lot of something that was clearly not water from the side of your truck. There was a visible spill or pour down over the ground and into the trees. I asked a lot of people if they thought this spill was water. It looked like cooking oil. I […]
Mo’ Ono Hawaii Acai Bowl Food Truck Maui
Tony Matsuda and Ku`ulei Hanohano make some of the best acai bowls I’ve ever put in my belly. You can get the bowls by going to their food truck–called Mo Ono Hawai`i–at the Kahului small boat harbor. They have been bringing their truck to this location full time for the last two months, but they […]
Kainoa and Rycin Pavao’s 808 Plates Catering and Food Truck in Kahului
The 808 Plates food truck is the great big ocean blue and chrome beauty that parks just to the Waiehu side of the entrance to the Kahului small boat harbor. Brothers Kainoa and Rycin Pavao run the truck (which is open Monday through Friday from 10:30pm to 5pm) and they say every day is different, from the […]
Playmakers Sports Bar and Wayne’s Sushi Fresh Off the Boat Team Up
I love it when two great things get together. So when I saw that Wayne’s Sushi Fresh Off the Boat teamed up with Playmaker’s Sports Bar, I knew I’d found a heavenly match. Playmaker’s Sports Bar is something like a child of the old Sports Page in Kihei. Owner Misha Vosburg was part of the crew that owned […]
Teddy’s Bigger Burgers Food Truck
If you doubt that a food truck could be as good as its brick and mortar location, I’m with you. So recently, after seeing the Teddy’s Bigger Burgers Food Truck parked off of Kahului Beach road, I decided to put them to the test. The Lahaina Teddy’s Bigger Burgers is one of the best burger […]
Shark Bite Cafe’s New Wailuku Food Truck on Mill Street
Driving up at the top of Mill Street in Wailuku, I came across a new food truck called Shark Bite Cafe. It was located in a parking lot next to a two-story commercial building. The Shark Bite Cafe has a commercial kitchen in that building (it’s where they run their catering company) so it made sense to […]

Wayne’s Sushi Bar, formerly of Haiku, has a new food truck Fresh Off the Boat in Kahului Maui
You may have spotted Wayne’s Sushi Food Truck Boat at the food truck court across from the Costco gas station. Wayne’s Sushi Bar used to be in Haiku, but closed a few years back. It’s one of the best uses of a boat that will no longer float that I’ve seen yet. It’s a real boat–named Fresh […]
Kihei’s Signature Coconut Shrimp truck – Kinaole Grill
The Kinaole Food Truck has a nice, feel-good story. When owner Becca Thomas, who’d visited her condo for years, decided she wanted to make the move to Maui full-time, she decided changing her small catering operation into a food truck operation was the way to go. It took about 11 months from food truck purchase […]
