Reviews With Photos - Aloha Shrimp
My family and I were staying at an Airbnb down the road. I really wanted some shrimp and found this spot on Yelp. Our very large group ordered a variety of items. The spicy shrimp was the biggest hit. The spice was perfect and I enjoyed every bite of my meal. The truck is on the side of a store and has open seating on picnic benches. The folks working were friendly and provided great service for our large group. The food came out fresh and in a timely manner. I highly recommend a stop here and I wish I had time to go back for more.
Best spots around the island are those little stops along the highway. Usually next to a store or market. This is cash only and they have lots of different shrimp. I picky about my shrimp and usually don't like the peel and eat shrimp which has lots of flavor on the shell and nothing on the shrimp. So I ended up getting the coconut shrimp and my hubby got tempura shrimp. Lots of shrimp, cooked well and served with rice and corn. Lots of seating and lots of roadside chickens running around. Friendly, quick, flavorful !
Away from the big crowds of the Kahuku shrimp trucks is Aloha Shrimp in Hauula. It's easy to miss so keep an eye out for the blue building and food truck. There's a nice big open grassy space with shaded picnic tables to enjoy your food at. There's a few other food trucks in the area that share this eating area. They even have a little hand washing station, along with trash and recycling bins that were very well maintained. The ambiance is really chill and you may even see their resident family of chickens. We ordered the classic garlic shrimp and the spicy garlic lemon shrimp. Each plate comes with corn, a slice of pineapple, and rice with that sauce all over. Usually, if there are two versions of a dish- I usually like the spicy version better. Comparing the normal garlic butter with the spicy is so difficult because of how good the garlic butter is on it's own. The spicy has a bit of a vinegar tangy spice with a nice medium - high heat. My friend really loved the spicy one, so I ended up eating more of the regular garlic shrimp. Once you place your order, you'll get a beeper that goes off when your food is ready. For two plates, it took around 10-15 minutes. Service is very friendly and you can tell that the people here put a lot of care into their food.
Consistency! Aloha climbed its way to the top of my list. Ran by a super hard working humble family. First to open and last to close. Super fresh shrimp. Killer sauce #5. Wish they had a Mac salad vs the canned corn. Off the menu: #5 over noodles. (Pictured) #5 sauce with the cutlet The little engine that could. Keep it up guys! Thank you for feeding me through the years and the smiles. Mahalo.
My favorite shrimp spot on the island! It's about a an hour drive for me, but always worth it. I usually stop by on my way to the North Shore. The coconut shrimp is great, but the spicy garlic lemon shrimp is unmatched. The owners are super sweet and the food comes out fast every time. Highly recommend!
This use to be my favorite shrimp truck but this most recent trip here has left me slightly disappointed. They got the sauce down and it is impeccable. The spiciness is not overbearing and it is the perfect richness from the butter. The shrimp, however, was kind of mushy this time. Previously, the shrimps were plump and not mushy so maybe I came on an off day. Overall great shrimp truck to check out with an abundance of parking. Plenty of seating for dining. The workers here are always nice and are quick to pump out the food.
I was recommended to try Garlic shrimp by a lot of people on our trip to Oahu,Hawaii . I must say it's one of the most delicious food I ever had. Aloha shrimp came up on our search while traveling from Waikiki to North shore and we thought of giving it a try . It a food truck basically . The prices were reasonable and the service was quick . They greeted us with nice smile and they have a nice seating area where you can sit and enjoy your food. There are also some others fruit stands and trucks nearby ( I saw a Thai food truck right next to it ) . So you have many options in the same place if you wanna try something else however I recommend trying the garlic shrimp from Aloha Shrimp truck .
Single food truck off the side of the road on the eastern side of the island. Super unassuming but you'll see signs and their light blue truck if you follow the GPS. There are some unmarked places to park once you turn off the road -- you'll see some cars there already so you can park next to them. The Chinese couple who run this truck are so sweet. We ordered the #1 Garlic Shrimp and sat down at one of the 8 picnic tables they have outside their truck. The shrimp was cooked to perfection and drowning in butter + garlic. The rice soaked up the sauce on the shrimp, and the corn + pineapple sides were nice additions, albeit small (just one piece of sliced pineapple?). I'd come back again but I'd also be interested in trying one of the many other garlic shrimp plates in the North Shore to see how this stacks up.
Another really tasty shrimp truck! We came here after the Kualoa Ranch Tour and were excited to find they had garlic shrimp and spicy shrimp again. The spicy shrimp was really good, the sauce was divine. It came with rice, a slice of pineapple, and corn. I do prefer Jenny's shrimp truck more but the owner here was very sweet and there was a generous about of shrimp. There was also ample seating for us. Note: the forks do break very easily so try to be more gentle when you use them!
Love, love, love Aloha Shrimp! This was the very first place we ate after arriving on the island, and let me tell you--the bar was set high right from the start. The customer service was excellent. They were super patient with me while I took my time deciding what to order. The menu isn't huge, but I wanted to be sure of my choice. Their most popular items are the #1 and #5: garlic shrimp and spicy garlic shrimp, both served with rice, pineapple and corn. The food took a few minutes to prepare, but we didn't mind--it gave us a chance to take in the scenery and watch the chickens running around. When the food came out, the aroma alone was enough to make my mouth water. The shrimp was juicy, tender, and packed with flavor. You really can't beat it. The garlic topping on both the shrimp and rice added even more flavor, though the corn was a bit of a letdown--cold and straight from the can. But honestly? The shrimp was so amazing, I didn't even care. In fact, it was so good that after grabbing sushi later that day, we stopped by again and picked up another plate on the way to our destination. I'm so glad we gave this food truck a try--10/10 would absolutely recommend!
Tried this truck as it was the only thing open close by. The food was ok for me. We got the garlic shrimp it came with rice and some canned corn, and a slice of pineapple. You order and then go back to pick up when called. They have covered seating on the side and parking. It's a very casual and open environment.

A hidden treasure close to the Polynesia Cultural Center. In the short 8 days in Oahu, we have tried twice because its spicy shrimp is soooooo good. We tried Aloha Shrimp food truck first and then tried the others including the famous Gxxx. The other food trucks may have more advertisements thus longer lines and more expensive while not as good as Aloha shrimp. That's why my picky boy insisted to go back to Aloha Shrimp before we leave. We were lucky to make it before it closed. The 2nd time is as yummy as it is. Absolutely recommended! read more
Speechless at words on how good this place is ! I am form LA and wish they have something like this out here with the taste of this food ! Went to Honolulu for my daughters 15 bday party and we were not disappointed With the food. Wish this place was closer to us so we could of ate this every night. The shrimp was smothered with garlic and butter and was just amazing ! The sauce of the butter and garlic fell onto the rice and it gave the rice a more better taste. The coconut shrimp was fair wasn't crazy about that and we have heard that the coconut shrimp was ok that garlic spicy one is the way to go. Btw the spicy shrimp is not that spicy has a kick but not spicy make sure to get some of that. read more

This is our first shrimp food truck that we have tried and it did not disappoint! The spicy garlic shrimp had the right amount of spice and had amazing flavor would definitely come back for it. The crispy pork was good but would probably just order more shrimp next time. read more

This was a bit out of the way, but came highly recommended for us. It was an absolutely amazing food truck. I personally would recommend this over Giovanni's any day of the week. Compared to Giovanni's: 1) much lower wait times 2) tons of seating, and the beach is right across the street. 3) much better quality shrimp, easier to peel and are all deveined 4) the rice has better texture to it 5) the sauce is 1000x better. More garlic flavor without any strange afterta read more
Driving along Hauula side of the island we stopped by this Shimp Truck and decided to give it a try. The parking is suffice and the tables are clean. Cute mama chicken and her chicks cruised the grounds. They have different flavoring of shrimp plates to choose from with a slice of fruit (we had pineapple).... as well as salad and rice. They allowed me to choose all greens instead of rice. The choices of shrimp include: coconut shrimp, healthy shrimp, spicy shrimp, garlic shrimp, ginger shrimp, lemon shrimp, spicy garlic lemon shrimp, pork chop and crispy chicken. The tables are clean- no stinky smells. Decorated with flowers on the table. It's cash only. So worth the stop!! read more

Yelp you let me down on this one. This is not great shrimp. This is not the best shrimp in Oahu and it is definitely not better than Giovanni's. For $14.99 you get less shrimp, less flavor and a sad presentation. The truck itself looks dingy inside packed with all sorts of stuff so I agree with another yelper... how they keep their cooking area sanitary is beyond me. Cardboard boxes piled up, rice cookers look dirty and who knows how it looks when you peak around the corner. We ordered four garlic shrimp and one spicy shrimp. We're all in consensus that it's not that great. Shrimp came off nicely but the sauce was salty and not something I wanted to smother in my rice. They didn't have salad so they offered sweet corn. I was excited about this... only to find out it was sweet corn from a Del monte can... straight from the can. The shrimp with a slice of dried out pineapple was your meal. No sink to wash your hands (at least from what I can see) and port-o-potty bathroom if you need it. Needless to say, we'll be at Giovanni's later today to get our fix the right way, but this place earns 3 stars from me at best. read more

I WOULD LITERALLY FLY OUT JUST TO EAT HERE ! LordT!!! This is the place I will definitely be thinking about (as my mouth waters) and miss when I think about Oahu. I ordered the spicy garlic shrimp with extra sauce on the side -extra sauce is a must !! This sauce beat all sauces I've ever had including shrimp/crawfish spots. Ordered the ice tea which I personally liked. Not too sweet but did have sweetness to it. I recommend this place to everyone now. Service was extremely friendly and grateful for our visit. In MY opinion this place beats Giovanni's shrimp hands down with MY experience. (I only took video of my food which for some reason won't let me post). read more
+ Very friendly, good service - There's only 7 shrimps for more than $13 + They do give kamaaina discount... around $2 - It's easy to miss... it's right by a fruit stand + There's ample parking -/+ They have a pretty good hot sauce. It's not that spicy though. read more

Any day in Hawaii is a fantastic day especially when you come across the Aloha Shrimp Truck in Hauula on Kaehameha Hwy. Shrimp Trucks can be found all along the Noth Shore. We have tried some of the Shrimp Trucks on our last visit that have been visited by famous chefs ( not naming names). The lines were long and the food just average. I was a little disappointed neither too say. The five star reviews on Yelp made the Aloha Shrimp Truck our place of destination. My garlic shrimp came with rice / side salad/ slice of pineapple. These extra large shrimps were over the top ! and the garlic butter was literally " finger licken good " ! Sometimes you have to travel the unbeaten path too discover a true gem. Discover your treasure! Thanks for reading ! Mahalo , read more

Tonight we stopped at Aloha Shrimp around 7pm. There was only one other couple eating outside at the socially distanced picnic tables under a large tent. There was a private lot with plenty of parking. We ordered three spicy lemon garlic shrimp plates, which each came with 9 perfectly cooked and seasoned large pieces of shrimp on top of two scoops of white rice, alongside a toss salad with ranch dressing and a slice of sweet and juicy pineapple. The spice level was just right for me. Enough to enhance the flavor of the dish and make my nose run a little, but not over powering at all. I didn't really taste the lemon, but I still really enjoyed the sauce. They also slit the back of the shrimp so it was easier to peel. The rice consistency was a little off to me, but it might have been because we came closer to closing. The service was great and quick. Everyone I saw in the truck was wearing a mask. I couldn't wait to dig in on my way home as the garlic shrimp aroma filled the car. read more

Sofa king good. I'm legit writing this review as we digest / sit here, debating on wither or not we order an additional two plates for the road. My bf had the #1 Garlic Shrimp. I had the #7 Crispy Chicken as I do not eat seafood. We honestly didn't speak any words the entire meal. The flavoring was 100% on point for both dishes. My chicken was thin, crispy and not oily at all. His shrimp was large and juicy. The portion sizes were perfect. I am so, so, so glad we stopped here. The food is really good. Will 100% return and recommend. read more
Awesome pit stop on the way to the PCC (Polynesian Cultural Center) along the Kamehameha Hwy. Had the spicy garlic shrimp as recommended by the guy in the truck and it was delicious! The sauce was super flavorful and the dish included rice, salad, and a slice of pineapple. There was no line and the food came out relatively quickly. Across from the truck, there is a covered seating area with a handful of picnic tables for you to eat on. There are a couple of chickens just roaming around, trying to get a bite of your food. I'll leave it up to you on whether or not you want to feed them any of your food :p read more
Shrimp food truck located in a permanent location on the North Shore. Awesome, cooked to order shrimp dishes. All of them are peel and eat except for the coconut shrimp. The coconut shrimp good but the spicy garlic lemon shrimp was OUTTA THIS WORLD! It is cooked in a spicy garlic lemon bath and comes with additional spicy garlic lemon sauce. Outdoor picnic tables with an awning to keep the sun or the rain off of you. Make sure you take someone who is willing to peel your shrimp for you! read more

Very awesome customer service! The gentleman was very polite! This food truck is located off the highway, and I bet If you came later on duRing the day, you would enjoy a beautiful sunset! The shrimp was very flavorful, enough to share for 2. You get a pineapple, salad, 2 scoops of rice and of course shrimp! :) --side note, they have the cleanest portable potty! read more

I was very impressed, I can't wait to have it again my next trip. We got the number 5, the spicy garlic lemon shrimp and a number 8, the pork chop. The pork chop one is decent but the shrimp was delicious. The shrimps tasted fresh, and it has a little kick to it, but not overwhelming which I appreciate since I cannot handle spicy food. The lemon and garlic was perfect. It came with rice, a slice of pineapple and corn. We also had their delicious ice tea. We got there around 10:30 and there was only one person ahead of us. It did rain on us, but luckily their tables were under a tarp, so it was perfect. read more

Visited the Aloha Shrimp truck after Giovanni's was closed on Thanksgiving Day. We had another chance to visit Giovanni's, and to my surprise I preferred Aloha Shrimp by a mile! The shrimp here are much bigger and plumper, the sauce more flavorful. We had the lemon chili and ginger shrimp. The lemon chili was amazing - spicy but not too hot. The kind of sauce you want to finish off over rice (part of the plate). I would buy it by the bottle if they sold it. read more

We're just a couple of Haoles driving to the North Shore when we decided to get a snack. We saw this food truck by the side of the road and pulled into the parking lot. A quick look at Yelp revealed outstanding ratings so we decided to try it. We decided to split a #1 Garlic Shrimp for $14. The Garlic was strong and plentiful, the 8 Shrimp were tender and properly cooked. Rice was topped with more Garlic and Butter. A small lettuce salad and a slice of pineapple topped it off. It was a good snack for 2. The reason for the 4 star is I thought that for $14, 10 to 12 Shrimp would have been a better value for the money. It is "Aloha Shrimp" after all. read more
