The acai bowls deserve 5 stars. I had the acai bowl of my dreams, the NIU AÇAÍ BOWL, at Goofy Cafe…read morein early March, and I'm still thinking about it and looking for an acai bowl in the mainland that can even come close to it. The NIU AÇAÍ BOWL has papaya, strawberries, banana, lilikoi butter, coconut mousse, chia seeds, coconut flakes, granola, and honey. It is HEAVENLY. My husband got the Kalua Pork Eggs Benedict, and it was also amazing! The hollandaise with lilikoi butter was a nice touch. Service was very good, and they were quite busy. Be prepared to wait for a table, but the food is definitely worth the wait!

Once we were seated, the service was great and they were super kind. I was able to make a fruit swap request and they said it was not problem. The açai bowl tasted great! The fruit were super fresh. The açai wasn't as refreshing compared to what I had at "Tropical tribe" but I much preferred the freshness of the fruit, portions and cost here at Goofy's. The Piña Colada Smoothie was also delish! We sat next to the balcony and were able to people watch and bird watch which was fun. We overhead a table nearby, this was their 7th time visiting this cafe. They seemed to love it! Overall, I enjoyed the food, atmosphere and the staff were super friendly. If you are looking for a fast brunch spot, this is not the place due to the long wait time so if you want to eat here, arrive close to opening or plan for the wait time.

Between my fiancé and me, we tried about nine different menu items, and every dish impressed us. The Hawaiian BBQ chicken was hands down the standout dish, and the snapper filet was absolutely amazing. The banana bread is a must-try. The staff was knowledgeable, courteous, and welcoming throughout the entire experience. Melanie was nothing short of a superstar -- kind, respectful, and incredibly informative about the restaurant and menu. Easily one of the best servers we have ever had. We will definitely be returning, not only for the restaurant but to see Melanie again as well. Great job, Blue Water & Melanie!

The fish was perfectly crispy with fresh slaw and really creamy sauces. The tortillas for the tacos tasted very fresh too, which made them even better. Both entrées came with lemon wedges that added a nice bright touch. The fish and chips were great and the fries were perfectly crisp. I still think about the crème brûlée. The texture and caramelized top were spot on. Portions were generous as well. We were staying at a nearby resort so it was an easy walk for us. The service was good, although we came when there was not much of a line. The truck is located in a lot with several other food trucks so it is easy to find. I cannot speak to parking since we walked. There are a couple of benches in front where you can sit and enjoy your food, and the truck sits under a huge tree which gives some nice shade from the heat. Overall, I would highly recommend stopping by if you are looking for great vegan food.

The good news is it is fast so if you wait a little bit, someone is likely to finish up and leave. The ambience is definitely casual since it is a truck. There is covered picnic-table style seating for this truck and the other trucks nearby. The food is SO good. I read rave reviews on here for the fish tacos so I orderes them and they did not disappoint. The vegan sour cream is so creamy, thr coleslaw is perfectly tangy and crunchy, and the vegan fish is delightful. My husband got the chicken tacos which were hot, in contrast to the fish tacos. They had avocado and a green sauce and we also liked these though the fish were our favorite. The hibiscus lemonade was lovely and refreshing also. The service here is very fast. We basically ordered and then looked around at the other truck menus and by that time our food was ready! I would definitely recommend this place especially for vegetarians and vegans and would love to come back!

They were accepting and said they could stack the salad on top. I didn't get the unagi sauce in the moment, but I wasn't upset either because I enjoy salad without sauce too.
