D Green's BBQ - Brisket and mac and cheese. Delicious. Highly recommend this place. - Barbeque Near Me - Lihue, Hawaii

This place is showing as open on Yelp but the food truck is not at the listed location. What a disappointment

This BBQ was insanely good! I got the brisket (he threw in some burnt ends which were to die for), ribs, potato salad and Mac n cheese. You can choose what level heat you want your sauce to have- I chose medium and it had a pretty good kick with tons of flavor. The ribs were melt in your mouth, and the rub on the meats was next level. The Mac and cheese was Smokey and delicious, and the potato salad was a great compliment to all the rich flavors because there was a nice hint of fresh onion, and the tiniest hint of vinegar which balanced out the whole plate. This food tasted of love and passion and there was no lack of attention to detail on this plate. It's not only the best BBQ on this island, but I'd be hard pressed to think of anywhere better... And I've eaten some damn good BBQ all over the south! read more

D Green's BBQ - Brisket, ribs, potato salad, Mac n cheese - Barbeque Near Me - Lihue, Hawaii

My mother, boyfriend, and I visited D Greens BBQ a few days ago since another yelp review recommended and WOW we are so grateful we did!! We wanted to try everything so we ordered the combo boxes. The meats were SO fresh and perfectly sauced and the potato salad was crunchy and flavorful that is definitely a must try when visiting! If you had to choose one meat option let it be the pineapple sausage... it was amazing perfect blend of sweet and savory! We enjoyed it so much we had to order another combo box to-go for the family to try. We can't wait to come back on our next Kauai visit! The owner, D is so friendly and kind, overall a wonderful experience. read more

Aloha Yelpies !!! You've been all over the island and tried all sorts of want to be BBQ and wasn't impressed... Right !! I too thought this was it then my wife and I stopped over here to find really great food. The BBQ brisket is off the hook with the medium spice bbq sauce. Then top it off with some slaw and Mac n Cheese you have the perfect lunch or dinner. The owner doesn't hold back on the portion size and puts a ton of pride into shopping for the best quality food for the customer. Be on the lookout for his sauces in the stores .... read more

EXCELLENT BBQ. We saw this food truck on the way to north shore and thought to try it out! We were not disappointed. Super friendly service, went beyond, and gave us a plate with 2 choices of meet as we were not that hungry. He also gave a slice of the sausage to try it out in our box. Lip smacking good! highly advice you check it out. It is a food truck, you buy and sit outside to enjoy your food! read more

Awesome BBQ, extremely flavorful brisket and Mac salad. Would definitely recommend to others! Service was great as well!

We stopped at this BBQ truck in Kauai and tried as much as we could --brisket, pulled pork, hot links, beans, potato salad, and mac n' cheese. Every single thing was delicious! We honestly couldn't pick a favorite. The portions were generous, the food was amazing, and the owner was super friendly. Our only feedback: don't miss this place--stop here and try to get it all! Highly recommend! read more

D-Green is the man when it comes to authentic BBQ on the island! The ribs had a great smoke ring and a fantastic taste! The chicken was outstanding. It had a great smokey but overbearing flavor. OMG, the BBQ sauce was so flavorful! I had to order some for the house! Bay Area guy making us proud... read more

I got the brisket platter and he threw in some burnt ends also. My goodness! It was all so delicious! It was insanely moist, full of flavor, and so tender! My hubby got the rib platter and the meat was falling right off the bones as you tried to pick them up! My only complaint would be that I'm a purest and prefer my brisket not sauced. I assumed it would be on the side but it was all over it. I'm sure you could ask for it on the side but I just didn't think to say so ahead of time. Still probably the best brisket and burnt ends I've ever had and we have gone to BBQ joints all over the southern states in the mainland. read more

Solid bbq spot! Great food! Wishing the pork was a little leaner- had to pick out a good amount of "too squishy" for the kids but it had great flavor and the Mac and cheese was delicious! Would definitely go back! read more

Blah. I ordered the chicken plate with mild BBQ sauce and Mac and cheese as my side. The chicken was not fresh at all, and it was very tough. I think it was a Costco rotisserie. It was drenched in the sauce which was just gross and had a horrible flavor. The Mac and cheese was the only thing I semi-enjoyed. Even that tasted like it was made a few days ago. Skip this place and save your $$. Area it's located in is disgusting too. I had ants and flies all over my plate with chickens all over. Plain disgusting. read more

The guy running the joint is very friendly and a good sense of humor. I agree with his prices and appreciate that they are low when he could charge much higher. The ribs were huge and had tons of flavor and moisture, the brisket was great and the burnt ends even better. I really liked the spicy bbq sauce. Good stuff read more

D Green's BBQ - Burnt Ends, Ribs and Brisket w Mac n Cheese - Barbeque Near Me - Lihue, Hawaii

Tbh the bbq is not very good. It's not horrible but I wouldn't say it's any special or even tasty if you've ever had bbq in the mainland before. The hot link and the pineapple sausage both need more fillings because they are too soft and soggy right now. The bbq ribs and briskets need more rubbing for flavor and tenderness. The pulled pork is fine but that's all I can say. Overall if you don't have high expectations or expect anything Hawaiian then it's a passable meal. read more

Stopped by here to check out the food trucks after walking around the shops in town. The owner is a really nice and chill guy who's from Oakland. BBQ is his passion and you can tell by the food! The ribs are fall off the bone and brisket is super tender. He even threw in some free sausage which was also delicious. I preferred the sauce here over chicken in a barrel's - a bit smokey but not too sweet. Spiciest sauce isn't that spicy for those who are scared of the heat. Would highly recommend checking out this place if you're in the area! Just FYI it's not actually open 24/7 so you have the best chance when you visit after 10am until the afternoon. read more

Just ordered the chicken and pulled pork bbq from this place. The person working asked what type of sauce that we wanted. Instead of putting the sauce in containers on the side, he drenched all of the food in the bbq sauce. Two people in our group have tomato allergies and can't eat bbq sauce. We asked the man if he could remake our food with the sauce on the side and he flat out refused. Bad service considering he didn't even tell us that the food would be drenched in sauce. He flat out refused to do anything for us. One star for service. There are plenty of other places on the island that make Bette barbecue with better service. read more

not a good first impression...not open! They do not post any updated opening days/times on FB. Stopped by today Sunday just before 12noon and they are closed! Online it states only open sat & sun 11-6pm. read more

Kickass bbq, made by a really great guy. brisket and pork to die for and Mac n cheese straight from heaven. Absolutely delicious.

Brisket and sausage were amazing! Mac and cheese was also great. Owner is super funny, and the outdoor seating area was great for my kids to run around. Definitely coming back next time I'm in Kauai! read more

Great lunch! Would definitely go again. Loved the pulled pork and that potato salad was perfect.

Seriously this may just be the BEST BBQ on Kaua'i. If you're on the south shore and have the ability to eat at D Green's... DO IT. :) His sauces pair perfectly with his melt in your mouth BBQ. 10 Stars! read more

We have been trying to catch this truck for a while but they are only open on weekends and we never seemed to get over there in time...until today! We ordered the Big Kahuna platter so we could try a little bit of everything in one visit. The ribs, brisket, and sausage were my favorite and the original sauce is tasty! I'm not typically a baked beans fan but these were good! I'll definitely be back for a pound of brisket and beans! In spite of the many reviews about bad service I have to say that my experience was just fine. The menu is pretty simple so I stuck to that and didn't have a lot of questions or a complicated order. He was friendly in answering the questions I did have. Mahalo for the yummy food so I didn't have to cook dinner tonight! LOL read more

I am from Texas and was looking for something good other than fish. Slaw was almost all carrots, ribs were just not there. May be it is the way the are kept hot, they were over burned and sausage my son had a store to no taste. I guess I will stick with Sushi and sea food while here. read more

Lowering their review to a 1 star from 2 due to their god awful attitude and approach to their food and customers. The owners not only tried to justify their actions with faulty excuses, they even reached out to me in private message to attack me because I left them a true review. Instead of reflecting and striving for better, they treat their garbage food like gold and their customers like dirt. I am sorry, I will never return to your place nor will I ever recommend anyone to you. There are plenty good places to eat on the island, please don't waste a meal on these guys. If you are thinking about "safe food", go to Burger King or Wendy's, you will probably find better food and service there. read more

To start out: the man behind the counter is rude (I asked if the ribs were beef or pork and he just points at a sign that says pork). I decided on the brisket with the mac and cheese. I was beyond hungry and excited to eat it. You know how everything tastes better when you're really hungry? Well: I sat down with the flys, ants and chickens, open the lid and see sliced brisket (gray color) with maybe 400 oz of gross bbq sauce on top. There was LOTS of fat, and the meat was clearly cooked maybe a week ago (it's no wonder he makes it swim in the gross sauce to try and hide the old). It was beyond gross. Mac and cheese was nasty and also old. Keep in mind I was jittery I was so hungry: I picked up my $20 plate and dropped it in the trash. I ordered a cheeseburger 2 food trucks over at smash cafe and was heaven. Skip the bbq and D Green's. It's foul, old and the man/server is sour like his meat. Owner should shut down and do physical labor instead (he's not cutout for the service industry). read more

Owner is a chill guy who quickly serves tender BBQ. Yes, it's a food truck but these days you can get top notch food on wheels if that's what you are actually in it for. And for me, it's all about food & service. The atmosphere is outdoor seating replete with Hawaii's best chickens / roosters pecking around tables under a huge banyan tree next to what has to be an artifact (old chimney from a by gone era. The burnt ends, brisket and potato salad all do the trick. #Recommend read more

Hands down best bbq sauce we've ever had, and that includes my husband who's from Kansas City and partial to KC style bbq. The sauce is the perfect consistency- not too runny, thick or sticky- also not to sweet, with the perfect amount of heat. Brisket and ribs were both super juicy and tender. Beans and Mac were amazing too. Hush puppies can sometimes be dry and "meh" but these were perfect, and come with a bomb ass white sauce. Please bottle those sauces and offer shipping to the mainland! read more

I normally wouldn't give a food truck 5 stars because there is no sit down restaurant, but the food was so good I had to give it 5 stars. I was there at the end of lunch time and they were sold out of many of the sides. I had the ribs and brisket with the hot BBQ sauce. The meat fell off the bones and the sauce had the right amount of heat and great flavor. The brisket was very tender. It came with potato salad. It was good and creamy. I will definitely be a regular. read more

Just landed in Kauai and we were looking for some grub. Stopped at the food trucks in Old Koloa and found this gem. Was great to catch up with a Bay Area native. Excellent brisket, ribs, pulled pork, and hot links. If you are coming in from the Bay Area, bring D some Happy Donuts :). Yay Area! read more

Stellar BBQ. Subtle smoke flavor, not over powering. Flavorful, moist, and well cut meats. Brisket burnt ends are bomb. Pineapple sausage was just right, and not fatty at all. The Mac and cheese is a delicious side as well. Go get this BBQ, the only place I know smoking over lychee wood. Really fantastic. read more

D Green's BBQ - Mac n cheese, pulled pork and pineapple sasuage - Barbeque Near Me - Lihue, Hawaii

The chef hails from Oakland and you can taste that Everett & Jones influence in his sauce and style. The fried okra (crisp as you could ask) is excellent and the curly fries with Kalua pork are outrageous. What separates this BBQ from the rest are not the ribs (which are great) but the brisket, which is tender, falling apart and caramelized at the same time. Excellent sauce makes everything you order here fit together. Thank you, Chef D! I've seen a few comments here about Chef D's attitude - I can simply say that I was polite to him and he was polite to me, and very kind and respectful to my 77-year old father. A good man with a good heart. read more
