    Grilled Fresh Fish Tacos
    Viviana S.

    Food: Their fish was so fresh. However, the sauces were too sweet and overpowering. Service: Very friendly staff. Atmosphere: Lots of food trucks to pick from and plenty of outside tables. Very casual and perfect for large parties and families.

    Ordered the fish and chips - allegedly you can swap chips with rice. Everything was great - batter was definitely seasoned but perhaps there was a tad more beer or something else that gave it a bitter aftertaste You also get tartar sauce, ketchup and Mac salad (the salad is pretty good)

    Jumbo Coconut Shrimp plate
    Anna M.

    This is in a cute food truck area with good music and it wasn't too busy on a weekday evening. There were plenty of tables to sit at. The staff who helped me was friendly and it only took about 10 minutes to get my order. Food- Jumbo coconut shrimp plate ($15.95)- It came with 5 shrimps, mac salad, and rice. The mac salad was refreshing and the consistency wasn't thick. I really enjoyed this since it was more on the lighter side. The shrimp was crisp, but I do wish the rice was a little more fluffy/sticky. The lime it came with was a nice balance to the sweet chili sauce on the shrimp! I'd definitely come back to try some of their other dishes.

    Pulled pork sliders
    Sarah J.

    This place is delicious. It's in the food truck area with tables and shade. You order at the kiosk and the service is fast. Very good fish tacos, pulled pork, and burger. With so many choices in the food truck area, this is a great choice!

    Mahi Mahi fresh catch.
    K.G. F.

    Always our first stop after landing on Maui. Food truck right across the street from Costco. Their fresh catch is always excellent. Also have exact same food truck in Kihei.

    Tried Da Nani Pirates while checking out a group of food trucks, and it was a solid stop. I went for the shrimp and fish tacos--nothing too special on their own, but the sauce really pulled it all together and gave it a nice kick of flavor. Ordering is done through a kiosk, which was quick and convenient. Once it's ready, they call your name for pickup. The truck is parked in a shared food truck lot, so it's a great spot if you're with a group or want to sample different cuisines. Worth trying if you're in the area and craving seafood tacos with a flavorful twist.

    Why don't they auto apply this?
    Matthew G.

    Disappointed that they don't appear to want to reach out to the customer and all I get are automated text notifications about specials trying to ask me to visit their business. There is a big opportunity for this business to better connect with the customer when it comes to feedback given (which is a gift)

    Fish tacos
    Susan W.

    It's well priced and a good alternative to some of the pricey spots in the shopping center. They also seem to cook or prepare to order since we waited a little while. Unfortunately, we had to take our food elsewhere because the picnic tables were filthy and sticky and looked like they had never been cleaned. The food itself was fine, but we felt the fish tacos only tasted like sauce. The wrap was very very sweet and we didn't finish any of the food. We probably won't return, but there may be other dishes that are better. Or perhaps our tastebuds don't enjoy the sweet flavors here.

    The food was best on the island will be back again!!!! Great portions, great quantity and quality

    Garlic shrimp lunch plate
    Jennifer T.

    I got the garlic shrimp lunch plate and it was incredible. The shrimp were huge and the creamy cilantro sauce on top was amazing. I'm still thinking about it and wish I could buy a bottle to take home. They use huge chunks of garlic in this dish so I'm a big fan. They give a generous portion of rice and my only complaint is that it were a bit fluffier.The accompanying Mac salad was tasty and the coleslaw they made with this plate was very tasty too. It's a citrus mango vinaigrette type dressing that I've never had before and was so unique. They're located in a food truck park so there's plenty of seating and options for everyone in your group. This truck has so many options I'll definitely be back to try the tacos. Thanks for a great first meal in Maui!

    Maui Fish'n Chips hit the spot and was definitely worth the visit…read more Maui Fish'n Chips is tucked in the corner of a small plaza in Kihei, as most places seem to be. This place has a decent amount of covered seating outside, but no seating inside. The menu is simple, and you order inside. We ordered the Cod Fish with rice, Coconut shrimp, deep fried zucchini, and a side of potato mac salad. The fish and chips were easily the best thing we ate. The fish had outstanding flavor and were battered and fried perfectly. If we only ordered the fish and chips, this place would get an easy 5 stars, no questions asked. Unfortunately, the rest of the food we ate was meh. The coconut shrimp were large and had good coconut flavor, but were overcooked and a little burnt, which altered the overall flavor. But I am guessing if it wasn't burnt, it would have great. I typically love deep fried zucchini, so I was excited to try it here. If didn't meet expectations though (sad face). The zucchini slices were cut very thin, and when deep-fried, I felt like I tasted more of the fried breading than I did the actual zucchini. My wife is a big macaroni and potato salad person, and she was not impressed. She said it had too much mayo and not enough substance.... I was pleased with the service and staff! Everyone that worked there was really nice and helpful. I also appreciate all the seating outside. I also thought it was cool they had a lot of board games for kids to use while we waited for our food. Very unique and solid addition! This place gets a solid 4 stars. If they made little tweaks to the rest of their side dishes, this place could easily be one of the better places to eat in Maui.

    Okay, I could eat here daily…read more The line was long, but it gave us plenty of time to study their billboard-sized menu. We ordered the two fish tacos and an order of coconut shrimp. The fish tacos were massive. The fish had good flavor, although it leaned a little on the dry side for me. The coconut shrimp, however, were my favorite thing we tried. Crispy, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. We happened to arrive between their two happy hour windows, and while looking at the menu, we noticed that coconut shrimp were also available during the second happy hour along with other small plates. What I found odd was their happy hour policy. Apparently, you can only order from the happy hour menu if you've already purchased an entree and can show your receipt. I've never encountered that anywhere else, and it seemed like a strange business concept. Also, it is not posted anywhere that I saw. When my husband went back to order from the happy hour menu, the cashier asked if we had previously ordered food. He said yes, but our receipt was back at the table. For some reason, she had to go to the back to get approval before allowing him to order. It felt a bit awkward, especially since she was the same cashier who had taken our original order when we first arrived and we asked a bunch of questions, so I would def remember someone like me. lol That policy aside, the coconut shrimp were fantastic. I'd definitely come back for those alone.

Mai Tai was so good, I loved the flavor of the foam and definitely mixed it in after taking a couple of sips. My boyfriend got the Sour Ale?
