    Garlic butter shrimp (not deveined)
    Brenda V.

    Food was delicious for the Large shrimps that were deveined . I was asked if I wanted the head or not, I picked no head. Unfortunately half the shrimp was not deveined. Charging $20 for a shrimp plate and not deveining them is not great. I took my food to go so I wasn't able to bring it to their attention at the time. I tried my best to do it myself but I'm not very good . It was gritty.

    A few weeks late on this review... Food (3 stars) ~ Poke bowl with salmon and ahi was basic and a bit heavy on soy sauce. Portion was generous, but it didn't stand out. Perhaps a creamy version would've suited us more. ~ Cajun-style shrimp was fresh and large, but spice-wise, we were hoping for something more garlic-butter based. Just a preference! Service/Ambiance (3 stars) ~ You order, get a buzzer, and pick up your food. Straightforward. Shared outdoor seating and when I say shared I really mean you might be sharing the bench with another group. It's truly a casual food truck setting. We might give them another try, but next time we'll definitely go for a more recommended combo!

    Yum!!!! Got two shrimp plates- one mild and one regular! Devoured it all. Came out super hot and piping hot. Wolves loved some lemon of some sort but it was quite delightful

    I came here because I saw it trending videos and didn't have access to north shore. There are few other food truck share the little compound. Parking could be tricky sometimes. I ordered spicy garlic shrimp. Service was fast. They have plenty of seating area. It was not super spicy but enjoyable. The style is different from north shore. Overall it was ok.

    My boyfriend got the spicy shrimp plate! He ate every shrimp and rice, was up to his standard on the spicy level! Excellent food, service and cute area to sit and eat!

    Let's start with the Plantation Iced Tea -- it was amazing! It's a sweet tea with pineapple, and honestly one of the best drinks I've had. Super refreshing. I don't remember the exact shrimp flavor I ordered, but I think it was the spicy garlic. I liked that they give you the option of getting the shrimp with the heads on or off. The shrimp were a little difficult to peel, though. The flavor was good and had plenty of garlic, but it didn't really remind me of the classic Hawaii-style shrimp plates. It tasted more like Cajun seafood that I could easily get back home. Also, despite the name, it wasn't very spicy to me. It wasn't very busy when we visited, so we got our food pretty quickly. There were also plenty of tables in the area, and some even had umbrellas for shade or rain coverage.

    I stopped by Amy Shrimp and Poke Shake for a late dinner after a full day of exploring the city, and it hit the spot perfectly. The poke was incredibly fresh. you could taste the quality in every bite. The fish was clean, tender, and well-prepared, but what really stood out was the spicy soy sauce. It had a great kick without being overpowering, adding just the right amount of heat and flavor to elevate the entire dish. Portion-wise, it was exactly what I needed not too heavy, but satisfying enough to recharge after a long day. It's the kind of meal that leaves you full but not weighed down. If you're looking for something fresh, flavorful, and perfectly balanced for a late-night bite, this spot is definitely worth checking out.

    Famous Hawaiian Garlic Shrimp plate $19.95 that came with a side of salads and rice. We got our order with heads-on shrimps. There were 6 pieces of medium sized shrimps with white rice underneath the shrimps. This dish tasted like the ones from the boiling crab from CA. A lot of garlic pieces in the sauce with shrimps. This place was in the area with other food trucks. Parking was difficult around this area. There were few tables to eat there. If you cannot find empty tables then you will most likely be eating in the car after buying your foods.

    Ordered the poke and garlic shrimp plate. Poke- 2.75/5 pretty decent and portion is good for price. I couldn't taste the fish taste too much which is why I rated it lower. But the sauce was good and still pretty fresh. Garlic shrimp- 4/5 my only wish was it should have a bit more sauce but that just may be my preference. The sauce was super tasty and portion was great!

    Amy's Shrimp and Poke Shack is located in Honolulu about a 5 to 10 minute walk from the place we were staying at - Hilton Hawaiian Village Waikiki Beach Resort. It is located on the corner of Kalakaua Ave surrounded by other food trucks and shacks. One of the foods we wanted to try while vacationing in Honolulu was garlic shrimp so we were excited to see Amy's. We ordered the Spicy Shrimp Plate and it was very flavorful. My only complaint was how hard the shrimp were to peel (I have a thing about getting my hands dirty when eating) - they also still had their poop line still intact. The rice that came with was cooked nice, it also came with a side salad which I did not try. Since this is just a shack, you order at the front, they call your name and then they offer picnic tables to sit at which helped with the Hawaiian vibes. Overall, it was a big plate of food that easily fed 2-3 people and we left fairly satisfied and full. Staff was also very nice and personable!

    The food was delicious. Shrimp were huge and flavorful. The dressing on the salad was top tier. I would like the shrimp to be a bit more seasoned given that it's essentially seasoning on the shell which you peel off. The workers were friendly and helpful. Affordable pricing.

    It is very tasty and fresh and you can have the heads on or ask them to remove the heads. The owner was very nice to us and explained to us how we are supposed to clean the shrimps and gave us special gloves!

    The shrimp were perfectly cooked: juicy, tender, and coated in a rich garlic butter sauce that was bold without being overpowering. You can tell they know exactly when to pull shrimp off the heat. The salad was a great surprise: crisp, fresh, and light, which helped balance out the richness from the buttered shrimp really well. Simple, well-executed, and very satisfying. Service: The cashier was super friendly and genuinely happy to help. They took the time to walk me through the menu, answered questions without rushing, and made the ordering experience feel welcoming rather than transactional. You could tell they cared about the food and the guest experience. Ambiance: Cozy and inviting. It's the kind of spot that feels relaxed and authentic, perfect for grabbing something delicious without overthinking it. Great for a laid-back meal after a long day.

You can also buy just the cooked lobster meat: 1/2 lb (8 oz) for $75.00 They have can drinks such as sodas (including Hawaiian sodas) and beer. The roll was actually quite tasty! I was able to experiment with different flavors with the Old Bay seasoning, garlic mayo, lemon, and butter. The garlic mayo was surprisingly good with the lobster. You can also throw the Old Bay seasoning on the chips if you're in the mood. The price is pretty steep which was my mistake. I don't know what I was expecting when ordering lobster in Waikiki. The lady at the cash register was less than pleasant and helpful so it makes spending that money feel a little more painful. If you can afford it and are really craving a lobster roll, this should satiate you. I didn't feel like I needed more to eat after finishing my meal. Location: The store is located in the Royal Hawaiian shopping center. You have to take a staircase from the first floor to a lower floor to get to it. You may need to ask around for directions.
