    Terrible. Rice was disgusting. -mushy in some spots and hard and undercooked in other spots.
    Ty W.

    The last two trips to Oahu, I tried 4 food trucks and they all failed. Even Giovanni's garlic shrimp were a failure in my option and way overhyped for mediocre food. My snorkeling partner suggested to try the food trucks after our beach trip. I went back to the trucks where Giovanni was and looking at the food trucks selections, we ended up selecting this truck. No lines at this one compared to to overhyped garlic shrimp truck. Ordered one sandwich (ok tasting) , a chicken bbq plate ( not good) and the Kailua plate. The Kailua was ok but the portion was small. It came with terrible undercooked rice. ( yuck) and a salad. I swear Hawaiian do not know how to cook white rice! Rice was disgusting; mushy in some parts and hard and undercooked in others. We also ordered a salad that cost $16 for nothing but just iceberg lettuce and croutons -way overpriced. This place was the eitst I've eaten on the island. We also ordered milk tea and it was a big failure. Tasteless -waste of money spent

    the gross tacos

    i would give 0 stars if i could the food was the worst i've ever had. The tacos were just steak (undercooked and RAW) in a tortilla with cheese. And everything was horrible and the lemonade was sour and a mess. just a big mess. Mind you this was probably the worst food i've ever eaten

    Ahi tuna poke: first things first, it is too expensive, no doubt about it, 20$ is crazy for one bowl. But the flavor is there, really enjoyable poke, rice and salad paired nicely with the poke. Poke was high quality. Extra One of the few trucks that stay out later than others 4/5 (would be 5/5 if not price)

    While I had gotten some different for lunch, my friends each ordered a plate of shrimp from Jenny's…read moreShrimp. I'm normally not the biggest fan of shrimp, so I don't usually gravitate towards it. But I wish I wasn't so stubborn because the few bites I had of both the Butter Garlic Shrimp and Spicy Garlic Shrimp completely changed my mind. Since I'm not the biggest spice person, I preferred the butter garlic option. The shrimps aren't peeled, but they're butterflied, which makes them much easier to peel. The shell itself is packed with flavor, though, so I recommend sucking it before removing. The rice was flavorful, and the salad on the side was refreshing. I simply regret not ordering a plate of shrimp for myself. I'm a lazy person and don't like peeling shrimp, but this was worth peeling for.

    BACKGROUND ON JENNY'S SHRIMP:…read more Jenny's Shrimp Truck began as a small, family-run business with a simple mission: to serve the freshest, most flavorful shrimp on the North Shore. Jenny, the founder, was inspired by the rich seafood culture of Hawaii and wanted to share her love for local flavors with the community. Armed with a secret garlic butter recipe passed down through generations, she set out to create something truly special. In the early days, Jenny's food truck was nothing more than a converted van with a makeshift kitchen, parked along the scenic roads of Haleiwa. She focused on using locally sourced shrimp, ensuring that every plate was as fresh as possible. Word quickly spread about the delicious shrimp dishes, and soon, both locals and tourists were lining up to get a taste. JENNY'S SHRIMP TRUCK MISSION STATEMENT: A Taste of Hawaiian Paradise Nestled in the heart of Haleiwa, Hawaii, Jenny's Shrimp Truck is a must-visit destination for seafood lovers looking for a true taste. BACKGROUND ON VISIT: This was part of our Dole Plantation/Haleiwa tour that we signed up for. Lunch wasn't provided so this was on our own dime. CREDIT CARDS: They're accepted, but they tack on a transaction fee. RESTROOM: There's a restroom next door. AMBIANCE/DECOR: Not much ambiance, but they do have tables and chairs setup in their covered patio. SERVICE: Service was alright. Didn't take long for our food to come out. FOOD OF CHOICE: Garlic shrimp plate which came with rice and a slice of pineapple. Enjoyed the shrimp. It was quite tasty and easy to peel. I had a nice time eating the rice with their signature garlic sauce. SHRIMP TRUCK FOR THOUGHT: I would love to come back to have it again.

All the reviews I've heard from my friends, coworkers, and influencers (thekoreanmama/thekoreanson) were all true. It was really good. The line wasn't very long when we got there. There were a lot of people already seated eating their food, but we still managed to find/share a table with another party. We got the Garlic and Butter Shrimp and Lemon Pepper Shrimp.

If you love garlic, their garlic butter Shrimp is your dream. For myself I wish there was more butter and less garlic. I kind of just tasted garlic on garlic and then more garlic. I was surprised I could finish my food in one sitting since that almost never happens. I left still feeling a bit hungry and wishing for more buttery garlic shrimp. Especially for paying over $18 for one dish. I wish it was more filling and again had more buttery flavor. If I am in the area and feeling a strong craving for garlic and not too hungry I know where to go!

Just good food, made with real hands and real care. I ordered the Mushroom Burger, and it honestly changed the game for me. The patty was juicy and seasoned just right, layered with sautéed mushrooms that added this deep, earthy flavor -- like comfort cooked slow. The melted cheese pulled everything together in perfect balance, and the toasted bun held its own without ever getting in the way. Every bite was messy in the best way -- the kind you have to close your eyes for and just feel. The vibe here? Pure aloha. You walk in and feel like you've been here before -- like this is where everyone goes when they just need a good meal and a moment to breathe. The staff are chill, friendly, and full of that easy local kindness that can't be faked. It's the kind of place where time slows down -- where you sit outside, taste the salt in the air, and let the flavors remind you how good life can be in its simplest form. Final Thoughts: Haleʻiwa Burgers isn't just about burgers -- it's about the feeling after the last bite. That quiet, content, "yeah, this is it" kind of happiness.

It was crunchy. The fries were pipping hot and very tasty. We also tried a plate with some nice poke and coconut shrimp. The food is good quality and hits the spot. The problem was the amount of time it took to make and deliver the food to the customers. There were two people in the truck. It was as if they were cooking one thing at a time. It look at least an hour and there were not even that many people in line waiting. One woman was taking orders and the man was cooking. The woman said it was her first or second day but in the time my husband ordered, my other child and I walked around for twenty minutes looking for other options (I wanted garlic shrimp, and they did not offer that on their menu), I went across the way after our walk, ordered a meal, got my meal, and sat there waiting to eat and it still look half an hour for the rest of the family to receive their orders. It was absolutely ridiculous. As another patron stated on Yelp, perhaps they should have stopped taking orders if they could not keep up. Love the food here, but not sure I would recommend my family coming back next time.

We ordered the Ahi Poke Bowl and the Loco Moco, and both were incredibly satisfying and flavorful. Fresh ingredients, generous portions, and exactly the kind of local food experience we were hoping for. If you're heading to the North Shore, definitely make time to stop here. You won't regret it.
