BETTER THAN GIOVANNIS!‍ Everything tasted hot and fresh,…read moredefinitely will be my new spot for sure. Came 15 minutes before they closed and they had my order ready in about 5 minutes everything tasted fresh and hot not all greasy too, all the plates come with shrimp+rice+salad and a slice pineapple. I told them I didn't want a slice pineapple and to substitute it with rice and man they didn't disappoint with the extra scoop rice and hot garlic on top of the rice man it tasted good I will be back guarantee Yessah

Must always eat at a shrimp truck while at the North Shore, and this time we found Jenny's! They're…read morelocated on the edge of Haleiwa town. Ok I have to say I think Jenny's is better than Giovanni's. We ordered three different plates to try - butter garlic, lemon pepper, and spicy garlic... and all were delicious! Came out piping hot and fresh, and the shrimp was not overcooked!! My favorite of the three was the lemon pepper.

Sometimes the underdog wins big! Hono's turned out to be the champ. We had both Hono's and…read moreGiovanni's. The pro tip is to get the extra shrimp and skip Giovanni's. I also have a positive review of them so I'm not bias. This is just better imho. I'm a week late on the review, but better late than never. Food (5 stars) + Extra shrimp upgrade for a few bucks? Huge portion, bigger shrimp, perfectly balanced flavors--not drowned in butter. Great presentation too! + Hot sauce with a sweet kick--absolutely complementary. + Kalbi plate was tender and delicious--sweet, savory, and bone-in goodness. Service/Ambiance (5 stars) + Quick service, easy seating right in front of their truck, no confusion. + Personal touch with celebrity signatures on the truck--BTS included! (Not that I know much about them, but pretty cool) ~ Parking here is $2 and $5 in another lot about a block away. We paid the $5 to support the local community. This is the one I'll rave about! When I'm back, Hono's is my first stop. And yes, check out that BTS autograph!

Another shrimp truck in the middle of the food trucks within the same plaza as Giovanni's. We…read morewanted to see what all the hype was about at Giovanni's and compare it with Hono's, and trust me when I say Hono's wins by far. This Korean-inspired truck has more to offer than its competitors, not only because the menu is bigger, but also because there is zero wait and the shrimp is just as good. The service was relatively quick, and the woman working the truck was very nice. We ordered the galbi shrimp plate, and the galbi was pretty spot on. It wasn't as tender as we would've liked, but the flavor was definitely there. The shrimp was on the spicier side, but again, the flavor really came through. It is a bit of a nuisance to have to peel your own shrimp, but they were soft enough that you could still eat them pretty easily if you didn't feel like it. Seating is also nice since Hono's has its own area away from Giovanni's.

Portions are fantastic and they come with a fresh green salad and a wedge of juicy pineapple. The service is friendly and welcoming. It's outdoor eating only and they do a pretty good job of keeping the tables wiped down. The only drawback is that there is no restroom. There's a portable toilet out in the back end of the free parking lot.

I love garlic shrimp, and I'm a sucker for spicy garlic shrimp! Big Wave just did NOT deliver on…read moreflavor. The spicy garlic sauce was bad and did not have butter garlic flavor...it ruined the taste and I didn't finish my plate. The regular butter garlic shrimp tasted better. I usually ALWAYS go to Jenny's Shrimp truck right across the street, but I had visitors who insisted on eating at Giovanni's (they were closed today due to short staff, and I don't care for their shrimp either) so they picked Big Wave despite me advocating for Jenny's. I already knew it was probably going to be a miss after seeing Guy Fieri's pictures plastered everywhere and I was right. Anyways, I'm still glad I tried it out but when in Haleiwa I will never cheat on Jenny's again! Lol.

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.

If you want your food instantly after you order go to McDonalds... food is made fresh to every order here and the wait is always worth it!
