Worth following and hunting them down…read more Very friendly service and they make it easy to order by using instagram messenger to place orders. Gandule rice was amazing and probably the best I've ever had, packed with flavor and ingredients that you can pretty much just eat it by itself. While the food is expensive, they do give a lot of food which increases the value. The pastelillos was also a delicious treat. Packed with ground beef and cheese and accompanied by their creamy sauce, it makes you wanting more. Overall very good food and would recommend.

They serve a variety of Puerto Rican food with a hawaiian twist. I decided to have the steak, shrimp and laulau. It also comes with gandule rice and macaroni salad. The flavors are fire. Steak is a nice medium rare which is to my personal preference and the shrimp is delicious with a creamy unique sauce. The ratio of pork, fat and greens in the luau is so well balanced. As for the gandule rice, it is by far the best I have ever eaten. Every morsel is perfectly flavored. This is a special treat when you want to have a cheat day. This is truly one of the best places to eat on the island. Chef's kiss to Guudfellaz.

The only downside is they sell out so fast -- that's how you know it's good! Such a cute little food truck with a great vibe.

My favorite: The Ultimate Patele plate Gandule Rice, Patele, Patele stew on top and Bacalao Salad. It's takeout only, there might be a few seats outside, but it's fun to pick up a plate and go to a nice park nearby to eat your lunch/early dinner under the shade of a large tree. You must come to this tiny location in Waipahu to experience this deliciousness!

Looking to find a decent tasting Pastele. Decided to try Wat Get Kitchen. We ordered the Hapa plate. It comes with one pastele, gandule rice and bacaloa salad. My wife and I wanted to try the empanada. Unfortunately the fryer was broken. The Pastele had a good taste. The rice was ok. The Bacalao salad was made fresh as we were watching. Not a bad choice if looking for pastele. We were served by Cory. Funny and very personable. Enjoy.

Best of all, we get to try so many new delicious local bites! We now look forward to our Thursday dinners! A few weeks ago we had already ordered our dinner at a couple other booths, but while waiting for our meals to be prepared, we took another lap around to plan for our next week's meal haha. I was excited to see a Puerto Rican food truck! It had been so long since we've had Puerto Rican; I was counting the days until we came back lol. I placed my order for the Tripleta sandwich and we took our stroll while waiting for our meal. I asked for no potato stix on my sandwich; personal preference, but I definitely know a lot of people who would've enjoyed the added crunch! It was ready just as we returned about 8 minutes later. Each bite was juicy, perfectly seasoned, and fresh. The bread was divine and soft, the best pair to the symphony of meats and veggies. I will definitely be trying the plantains next time! Along with more of their menu; everything sounds so yummers! For the meat sandwich lovers; the tripleta does not disappoint!!

I tried their food and it was good. I got the Pincho-con. It was $28. Flavor wise it was good but…read morepresentation wise I was disappointed. From what they posted on Instagram I was highly excited to get it but when I received it, the sauce wasn't mixed in with the rice. Also the person running the window was a young person. They weren't being rude but they did seem like they were bored. I ended up paying with a $50 bill for a $28 dish. So my change would have been $22 but instead I ended up getting $12 back. So.....like I said flavor was good. Presentation was disappointing. Service was meh. My overall score to this establishment is 2 out of 5. I won't be coming back because I don't trust the person running the window.

My coworkers and I were lucky to have her parked across of workplace today. I ordered the pastele stew plate with gandule rice and cornbread. The pastele stew punches your tastebuds with flavor! So delicious! The gandule rice is great and flavorful on its own, but with the pastele stew smothered on top it's next level good! The surprise hit was also the cornbread! Like wow!

Let me tell you her cornbread is the best I've eaten! Soft, moist and mouthwatering good! Now for the stew. I don't know what happened but it was not as good as when I previously ordered. When I tasted it, it just did not taste as good as I remember. It lacked the flavor and depth of flavor I remembered. I was disappointed. The rice had this after taste I could not figure out. I was bummed not only with the flavors but the wait even though I pre ordered.

It's been a while since we got some pastele, so decided to phone order for lunch. Simple order, #5…read moreone pastele (hot) and gandule rice, 1 small order of pastele stew, and 1 side order of bacalao salad, and 2 pastele lumpia. Hubs picked up the order and brought home lunch. Side note, the last time I ordered the stew/rice combo, it wasn't enough for the Mr, and since there was rice at home, he ordered the stew separate. I was in a meeting, and would enjoy my food after I was done. As I stepped out of my home office, I see hubs hardly at any stew, and I asked him if he was waiting for me to eat. He said no, and told me "if you want the stew, you can have it". Oh no, I know exactly what that means, so I offered him half of my pastele plate. He said no, and he looked bummed out. I knew I would need to reheat my plate, as it sat for 20 minutes before I got to eat it. While I was reheating my plate, I took a bite of his stew. I had to stop and look at the stew and it looked different. So I took another bite. The taste was ok (not like the amazing stew in the past), but the meat had a different texture. One more bite.....that's when I realized and then asked hubs, "Is that ground pork? Is that why it's different?" And he agreed, "that's what it is! ground pork!" The flavor was a bit off too, but the meat made all the difference. My reheated #5 plate was fine, a little bit salty, but just fine, no complaints. Finished up with the pastele lumpia, which was greasy (usually is unless its fresh) and asked hubs about the bill. Well, I understand inflation is a terrible thing for small businesses and consumers, but my jaw dropped when he said it was $50. And he wasn't a happy camper about the price or the stew. -Sigh- I don't give up easily on places I've enjoyed for years, so I will be back, eventually.
