    Two choice Kanak, I got da Teriyaki Chicken & Garlic Shrimp ($18.85 w/tax)
    Fran C.

    While surfing fo' da GRINDZ on Yelp, Bruddah Fran came across this food truck in Kailua-Kona called - " Da Bruddahz Grindz 2". After spyin' on da GRINDZ from this food truck, Bruddah Fran's eyes almost popped outta his head when he saw "Da Kanak" plate!!! Lol! Shoots, I go bookmark this joint & since Bruddah man was working in Kailua-Kona today, so I figah I go chance 'em!!! I wasn't too sure about where this food truck stay, but I knew exactly where Henry Street stay. Fortunately fo' Bruddah Fran, he was talking to his friend - Alisha at da bank, and she knew exactly where this food truck was. So where da food truck stay??? Shoots den', Bruddah Fran hook you up wid' da 411! Da food truck stay in da parking of Safeway (Kailua-Kona location). Da Bruddaz Grindz 2 truck stay parked at da outter edge of the Safeway parking lot on a dirt/gravel lot. For a little truck, I was kinda impressed wid' da various menu items that they offered. After checking out da menu, I wen' chance da "Two Choice Kanak plate" which consisted of Garlic Shrimp, & Teriyaki Chicken. With da plate, you get two scoops white rice, and a choice of mac salad. If you no likey mac salad, you can request a tossed salad. Da verdict? Solid local kine GRINDZ! Dat Garlic Shrimp was broke da moufth ono!!! Da buggah tasted more buttery den' garlicky, but da buggah was ono! As for da Teriyaki Chicken, buggah was good if you like a sweet marinade. Solid dish as well. Next time I stay Kailua-Kona, I wen' spock some other items I wouldn't mind chancing! For local kine GRINDZ give Da Bruddahz Grindz 2 a chance and tell them dat Bruddah Fran was hea! Lol!

    Rice, Mac salad, Korean spicy chicken & teriyaki beef

    Food was absolutely amazingly delicious. It was our first time trying this food truck and we were not disappointed. Mac salad was delicious and fresh. Both chickens were so flavorful and that garlic shrimp was amazing. Service was great too very nice and easy to order 10/10 would recommend & we will definitely be coming back. Mahalo

    I give this a solid 4.5/5! The furikake chicken was absolutely amazing. The flavor it had was amazing and it was cooked perfectly. That paired with the Mac salad and rice was 10/10. The garlic shrimp had great flavor as well. I almost wish the shell would have been taken off the shrimp completely to let the shrimp soak in more of the flavor. We had the Kalbi ribs as well and the flavor on those were really good. The only downside is that the ribs were really hard to eat. I have never had these kind of ribs before so that might be common, but I would not recommend those. It almost felt like eating beef jerky. The chicken was the true showstopper for me and I would 100% recommend trying that. Really great stop!

    Garlic shrimp! YUMMMMM

    SOOOO GOOD!! We got the garlic shrimp, furikake chicken, with rice and macaroni salad, and it was amazing! Generous portions, and the employees are all very friendly! Great prices too! We will definitely be back

    Teriyaki chicken
    Kenneth T.

    Since broke da mouth is temporarily closed, found out about this location and was very much hoping this would satisfy my craving for broke da mouth. It was sadly disappointing. The teriyaki chicken and beef was overly salty and there wasn't any other flavor. It was a bad choice that we pretty much ate what we could tolerate and the rest was tossed. Furikake chicken was crispy but it too lacked flavor. Not sure if it was a fluke or not, but since we ordered four entrees and all four were below average, I doubt it's a fluke unless it was a terrible disaster in the kitchen that day. They only have one table outdoor available in the makeshift space across from Safeway. So most people pick up and take home, or you could eat in the car at the lot.

    Just got to the island today and stopped by Da Braddahz Grindz for some grub. Since we hadn't even checked in yet we were happy to see a table outside the food truck. The food was great and probably one of the best garlic shrimp I've had. I was able to use some of the leftover sauce with my rice and the mac was light and delightful. Highly recommend stopping by if you're in the area.

    This spot is a bangah!! Local food truck that you won't regret visiting. Great service and wasn't a long wait. It was a nice day outside, so perfect they have a picnic table and tent setup. I ordered the kanak and switched the shrimp with furakake chicken. Everything had great flavor. The Mac salad was fire! The meats were awesome too. Lot of food for $20. My plate is heavy. Thank you for a great experience!

    Delicious food truck, provided us with provisions for a sunset dinner. Quick service with reasonable portions.

    Mini kanak with coconut shrimp and garlic shrimp

    Excellent lunch plate. Got the mini with coconut shrimp and garlic shrimp which was bomb. They cook it after you order so can take 10 minutes but totally worth it! Will be coming back.

    Korean chicken plate with two scoops of rice and macaroni.

    I first tried their Beef Teriyaki at their food truck, and from the first bite, I couldn't get enough!! From that moment forward, every time I saw their food truck, I would get excited like a man who gets reunited with his girlfriend after not seeing her for a few days. Da Braddahz Grindz Beef Teriyaki is sweet and tender, and their plates come with rice and macaroni, which taste scrumptious, too I also love that the staff are generous with helpings. At approximately 17.00, customers receive a large helping of food. It usually takes me two tries to finish the Beef Teriyaki. Their Chicken Teriyaki is equally delicious and sweet. I tried the Korean Chicken. The Korean chicken is crispier than the chicken teriyaki. I wasn't fond of it. However, my co-worker raved about it. I ate the Korean chicken, and it didn't taste bad. However, it didn't move my taste buds, and I wouldn't order that dish again. Da Braddahz Grindz recently opened a restaurant in North Las Vegas, and I picked up an order there. They have some breakfast items that I am intrigued to try. The staff is always pleasant. I have tried several Beef Teriyaki restaurants in Las Vegas, and no one is messing with Da Braddahz Grindsz! There is a new Beef Teriyaki sheriff in town, and go check them out for yourself! Your taste buds will thank you for it!

    chicken and rice

    Today was the soft opening of the brick and mortar location of Da Braddahz Grindz. I am excited to have another hawaiian restaurant nearby. The restaurant is small, but surprisingly, they fit a decent amount of tables in it. I ordered the teriyaki chicken plate, and it was ready immediately. The chicken is very good. It has a great flavor! There were a lot of items on the menu that peaked my interest. Bulgogi fries sounded great. The garlic shrimp sounded good. Everything on the menu sounded good. We will definitely be back to try some other dishes!

    So good! We tried the large plate with 2 orders: garlic shrimp, coconut shrimp, Korean chicken, teriyaki beef and katsu. Very generous portions with sides of rice and mac n cheese. Would have it again.

    Furikake chicken, garlic shrimp, beef teriyaki.

    You want local food at great prices and you're staying on the Kona side? Then head on over here,…read morebrah. They have pretty much everything you're looking for right here in terms of island staples. And the pricepoint for their huge menu is more than reasonable. And yes, they serve the LEGENDARY Yoshino's Hamburger steak here. Luckily, they didn't run out when I arrived. As stated, there is so much going on with the menu that you will be sitting there thinking about what's good. They even have off-the-menu daily specials. Everything sounds good! So yeah, had to try the Yoshino plate that comes with two patties, rice, and mushroom gravy. Huge portion that filled me up quick. The patty is tender and just reminds me of a handcrafted burger from home, not some processed crap. You can tell that they use an old-school, bread-crumb based recipe. Comfort food at its finest. The dish came with a side of Mac salad. Their's is elite as well. They make it with tuna, and it works! It's like a meal in itself. Like I said, so many food options to choose from. There's no reason to miss out on this culinary gem if you're a fan of local food. Run, don't walk.

    We had lunch at this "go to" spot for high-quality local comfort food that's been operating for 20…read moreyears. It's one of two places we frequent whenever we're in Kona (for golf). I had the Spicy Garlic Chicken with French Fries and a green salad ($20.95) and an Iced Tea ($5.50); my friend had the Veal Patty with mashed potatoes and potato/mac salad ($19.95) and a Diet Pepsi ($5.50). Whoa, this was a LOT OF FOOD! The Veal Patty description said two veal patties; my friend's plate contained SIX patties! He could only eat half of his meal; I managed to power through most of my plate. I don't think anyone leaves this place hungry. Recommended!

    My wife and I stopped by Paakai Poke & Deli as our first stop from the airport. Between the two of…read moreus, we split a plate with three scoops of poke -- umami ahi, furikake sea salt, and spicy salmon, along with mac salad, coconut ube and white rice with furikake, eel sauce and soy sauce. This all came out to $31.30 after tax, which is almost the same price as their large plate at $35.00, with two fewer scoops of rice. Of the items we ordered, the ube coconut was by far my favorite. I am definitely coming back again for more of this. I've never had ube in this format before, but the mild sweetness of the potato came through, and I enjoyed the chunky mashed potato texture. The next item I liked from the plate was the mac salad. I can't remember the last time I've had mac salad with this much black pepper sprinkled throughout it. The black pepper brought an unexpected amount of heat. Additionally, I thought the noodle were cooked perfectly. In most mac salads that I've had, the macaroni has been cooked far too long, but that was not the case here. I also appreciate that the mac salad was not drowned with mayo, another flaw I commonly see with this dish. Although the poke here is fresh, and the pieces are nicely cut -- all uniform in size, I thought the poke was a bit too salty, and needed to be enjoyed with the rice. The rice itself was a bit on the mushy side. Overall, we had a pretty solid meal at Paakai Poke & Deli. If you're in this area, stop by for the coconut ube -- you won't regret it.
