Short wait too, had others in front but it wasn't a ridiculous long wait

We happen to stop at Elena's to grab take out and I remember Diamond's Kitchen food truck is right in the same area out in the parking lot. I see the chicken cooking, smelled so good, hot and fresh so happy this is my chance to try. I went with the 2 item plate, ($24.) fried pork and chicken, which comes with rice, corn and sauce. I didn't get the side of potato salad but wanted to try the pickled ung choy $10. for container. I loved how the chicken is cooked, fire roasted huli chicken. My opinion, Wow- so Ono! I loved the fried pork, super tasty, I loved the dipping the pork with vinegar sauce and the chicken, so tender, juicy and loved it. I love the flavor in every bite eating fried pork, chicken, rice and ate it with the ung choy instead of corn. The best huli chicken here at Waipahu side. I am so glad I saw the reel, would have not known about this Gem! Supporting local and will be back here for sure now that I tasted this goodness!

Came here after we went to a concert and it had such good reviews but honestly the only thing that…read morewas good to us was the meat balls. The pork chop was all bone. And the ahi steak was a bit dry. And the wait is very long. And when we were ordering I asked the lady what the difference between the sauces were and she pointed to paper below her and nothing was there... so I was like uhhh ok and just choose something else. And the wait is very very long.

I went in on a random Wednesday night and it wasn't busy at all. It's located in the Waipahu…read moreShopping Center where Arby's is. They have a few picnic tables for people to eat. The service was easy and fast but just know they only take cash or venmo - no cards! The menu is simple and yet creative because there are so many of their signature sauces to choose from. I got the three mix plate with Firecracker Chicken, 94 Sauce Pork Chops and Cream Meatballs. I also got the 74 South Moko. Everything was delicious. The chicken was crispy and juicy and the pork was tender. The meatballs were a little salty with the sauce, but just eat a lot of rice! The moko isn't a patty, it's just their meatballs. The eggs were perfectly runny and a very savory.

Wow! We love the upgrade! It's amazing to see how far Sw8 Dada's Sisig has come - from a little…read morefood truck to their new spot at The Shop at West Loch Station. We stopped by right at closing tonight, and the friendly staff were kind enough to let us place one last order. My son was craving sisig, and honestly, only Sw8's would do. But we didn't know they closed at 6! Lol - Thanks Aunties! The food is just as delicious as ever - crispy, flavorful, and now they offer it topped with a fried egg and chili oil on the side... he was in heaven! We also spotted fresh lumpia in the warmer last time, so we'll definitely be back to try that next. If you're a sisig fan (or looking to become one), I highly recommend Sw8 Dada's Sisig! They are #1 in our book.

It is an order-at-the-food-counter experience. I got the pork sisig and lechon kawaii combo. The…read moreplace was nice/decent, clean, and looked new. The service was sufficient (low contact - could be off-putting to some.) The food was cooked on the spot, at least, the fried part was. My thing is, I've had different preparations of both the lechon and sisig before. I have to say that the ones I got from home-cooked versions versus commercial versions are different (at least for me it has.) It seems as if the sisig and lechon were initially boiled to cook it thoroughly, then they fry it before they serve it to you to get that crispy feel from the skin. The thing is, the jello-like/slightly slimy texture of the fat leads one to believe that it was boiled first or at least not fried thoroughly. There's nothing wrong with boiling as long as the skin and fat come through as crispy. The skin was crispy, but the fat wasn't. Perhaps, they just need to fry it a little more. Other than that, if it was crispy throughout, I would've given it 5 stars. I'm looking forward to trying the other things on the menu like the beef pares.

On my way back home from the Ewa side this morning, I had to stop by Dick's Lechon truck to fulfill…read moremy pork craving. It was almost 11am and it looked like all the trucks were closed, but fortunately, Dick's was open. It looked like they were only one of two or three that were. I decided on the lechon with pancit plate this time, since the Fried rice I got the last time was fairly bland. It was a good choice, as the noodles were flavorful, with lots of veggies. Unfortunately, the lechon was super salty this time. It was moist and the skin was veto crispy, but I could only eat a little at a time, due to the saltiness. I'm hoping this was a "one off", and they didn't change their preparation or recipe. I'll have to make sure by stopping by again to grab another order soon.

Everyone was working hard to get the food out fast. Lechon had the perfect crispy skin while the meat was tender. A good amount was given n' was nicely prepared. Ate it with the mang tomas sauce that was provided. The addition of spam pieces was to incorporate the main attraction. The fried rice unfortunately didn't have much flavor. I ended up eating it with vinegar to jazz it up. Bbq pork stick was really good on its own. The vinegar that was provided added even more flavor. It was actually my favorite out of everything; had a good char. Pork lumpia was two long pieces that was equivalent to like 6 regular size pieces. My kids enjoyed it. The turon had a good crunchy exterior, the banana seemed a bit on the dry side. Glad to see many people trying Dick's Lechon n' supporting local!

We were spoiled to the max! The owners and their family run the place and in true Filipino hospitality, they served us buffet/family style and entertained us with their stories from their humble beginnings to what they are today. The food was the best I've had in the Island. Hands down. Everything tasted nostalgic because the technique used in cooking each dish tasted like a handed down recipe from a grandma's kitchen from back home in the motherland. If you're ever in the island of Oahu please make your way to Waipahu and sample as much of their offerings as you can and I can guarantee you will not be disappointed! 10/10 recommended coming from a humble cook who rarely raves about Filipino food because I myself learned from my paternal grandmother.

They're located on the corner and once you see a tent & smell bbq, you're at the right spot. This restaurant gave karinderia vibe to it! Karinderia is basically like those food stalls they have in the Philippines, where they have a bunch of dishes and you sit out to enjoy the food. Home cooked & affordable eats. They have everything from bbq sticks, adobo, lechon, kilawan, lumpia and more. I got the bbq stick & chicken inasal plate. The bbq stick was packed with so much flavor! The chicken inasal was more on the huli huli side & was served with Filipino dipping sauce. They also offer free sabaw with your meal. Ordering was a little complicating, they have a menu outside with food and also more food inside. The bbq items were cooked by order and the inside food had more of the Filipino dishes like (adobo). But next to the cashier, you could also find other fried dishes as well. So a little complicated. You also have the option to sit outside under the tent or inside the restaurant with AC. For this type of place, if you're dining in, you order & eat first then pay. Like any karindera. Overall, this place was VERY good & SUPER AFFORDABLE. If you want to experience a true Filipino experience with great food, this place is for you.

Known for their Hawaiian combo plates with popular items like squid luau, lau lau, chicken long rice, lomi salmon and haupia. I recently got their #1 Hawaiian plate with lau lau and kalua pig and then got an extra side order of their squid luau. The lau lau and kalua pig definitely needed poi -- I think you can only get poi as a side order because it doesn't come with any of the Hawaiian plates. Squid luau is one of my favorite Hawaiian foods and I did find a few really big pieces of seafood in my side order! It was sweet from the coconut and really tasty. The service here is really friendly and super fast! I think they have a lot of the food pre-made so if you're in a time crunch- this spot can definitely accommodate.
