With a big group, food trucks were the easiest choice for lunches and or dinners as there were so many different choices. I decided to go with Shrimp Paradise this time around. I went with the Garlic Butter Shrimp Plate. The shrimp doesn't come shelled which is fine as it just reminds me of when my dad and grandmother would make shrimp The garlic butter was so good and lived that it mixed into the rice. The greens were good as well. Only downfall when peeling the shrimp is that you are with happy cause it was worth it or you are disappointed. I'll tell you, it is well worth it cause you are rewarded with a buttery, tender piece of large shrimp. The food came a little slower than expected but you know it was made fresh! You know how the saying goes, "Good things come to those who wait!" When in Princeville, this is a place to go. read more

We stopped by this food truck around 6pm and ended up being their last customers of the day as they were out of shrimp! We heard they were completely out rice and greens but we still went ahead and got the spicy garlic Kauai shrimp and the spicy pineapple shrimp tacos. Loved the tacos which had a real kick but the spicy garlic shrimp was really the star. First the Kauai shrimp was super fresh and personally I love eating shrimp heads so this was a real treat. The shrimp had such a nice texture and flavor I could tell they were great quality. The spicy garlic sauce was definitely the best I've had. So much flavor and with just a bit of kick to complement the umami shrimp. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm in Kauai and will come earlier just in case they sell out! read more

If you want the most garlicky delicious shrimp then come here!! My husband and I both ordered the shrimp with garlic+butter, peeled (because we have a toddler and baby and can't peel them since we're wrangling them)...and WOWOWOWOW! SO so good! The shrimp is super tender, not ever cooked. Seasoning is spot on. I'll be craving this when I'm back at home. My daughter had the spam musubi and she had two of them! The musubi has a bit more rice than expected but my daughter loves rice so it didn't matter. Service was fast! Definitely a food truck to visit!! Tables near truck for perfect seating! Just be aware--tons of birds and chickens. read more

Shrimp paradise - shrimp with garlic+butter, peeled. SO yummy! - Food Trucks Near Me - Princeville, Hawaii

I love shrimp and this food truck had full flavor shrimp fried garlic butter shrimp and spicy due to the fryer not working we didn't get to get the coconut shrimp but the following day we made sure to come back and try the head on shrimp as well . The food is made to order and made sure that was known especially since you will be waiting with a line . Don't be thrown off when your GPS has you going into a community / hotel area because the truck is in a middle of that. Seating area in front of the food trucks perfect to stay in eat or go back and eat . read more

We stopped by Shrimp Paradise a few times during our stay and consistently had good meals. The combo plate with kalua pork and garlic butter shrimp was solid -- the pork was tender and the shrimp perfectly cooked in garlicky goodness. The Pineapple Shrimp Plate was a nice mix of sweet and heat, and the Garlic Butter Shrimp Plate was simple but tasty. Portions were good, and service was friendly each time. Overall, a reliable food truck in Princeville if you're looking for shrimp plates and local-style comfort food. Would definitely go back. read more

Tried this place while on vacation. Ordered the coconut shrimp. It was very good, and the dipping sauce was great as well. Others in our group ordered the shrimp tacos, and the garlic shrimp, which they enjoyed. Someone else went to get the order, so I have no idea about the ambiance, but the service was pretty quick. Good place to go if you're in Princeville. read more

Easy to find food truck, right where it was said to be on Yelp! The garlic butter shrimp are definitely the stay of the show. We also got a combo plate to try the pork and I honestly wasn't a huge fan so my husband ate all of it. It was super Smokey if you're into that, and didn't come with any sauce to my knowledge. My husband just dipped it in the extra garlic butter. Didn't see any children size on the menu so we just got two adult dishes and shared with our two year old. Where the food trucks sit there was plenty of picnic tables, but didn't notice any trash cans. read more

Good garlic shrimp. Liked it so much I went back the very next day. Popular so it takes a while. But you can call ahead and place the order to save time. UPDATE: Make that three times in three days read more

I think this is the best shrimp truck on the island hands down! Very yummy! The garlic shrimp plate is to die for!

Taste good yummy. I like. My son like the shrimp lots. Very yummy. Cool area fun lights and fun foods. I like the drinks too. Fast service. I like. Yummy. 67/10. read more

Get the garlic butter shrimp plate!! Delicious!! This food truck is located in the middle of a quiet residential community. There are about 4-5 food trucks in this parking lot. The woman taking orders was extremely kind during our visit. There are benches in the parking lot to enjoy your food. Only reason I have this place a 4 star & not 5 is solely because they do not sell mac salad. read more

This was incredible! We got coconut shrimp, garlic, and spicy pineapple! Loved it all so much!

Grabbed dinner here to take along while we caught the sunset--and wow, it did not disappoint! The garlic shrimp plates and shrimp taco dinner were absolutely delicious. We rushed all the way from Lihue to make it before closing, and honestly, the garlic shrimp was so good we almost forgot about the sunset. Fresh, flavorful, and definitely worth the trip! read more

Delicious garlic shrimp and misubi - so great to have this spot near Wyndam Bali Hai.

It's weird that some of the best seafood I ate in Kauai came from a food truck, but that's what happened and it happened here. Delicious garlic shrimp. Also did the 2-3 person boil. Would happily come again read more

We shared the coconut shrimp tacos, garlic shrimp tacos, pineapple shrimp tacos, and kids had cheese quesadilla. Food was great! Shrimp were big - about 4 per taco. Service was quick and everything seemed fresh. We ate outdoors at picnic tables and it was cool and beautiful. read more

This place is kind of hidden in the Wyndham condos/timeshare. There are 3 food trucks there. We ordered the garlic shrimp plate. And the seafood combo. Both were delicious. Parking is easy and they have outdoor benches and tables in a covered area if you do not want to take it with you. Service is reasonable and could take some time to get your food depending on how many people have ordered. It could take some time but definitely worth the wait. read more

amazing food. we had the garlic shrimp tacos and the kalua pork quesadillas. the pork quesadilla is most value for money, but the shrimp is a must try. this is as good as the more expensive places we've eaten at in hanalei. if you're in the area, please try this place. there are tables near the food truck and food came very quickly. it's a bit windy but i assume this is seasonal. read more

Everything we tried was delish! Kids ordered the tacos (garlic & garlic butter) both were very good. I got the spicy shrimp plate, 10/10 would get again & had nice amount of spice hubs got the combo plate with kalua pork + garlic shrimp, he said it was the best kalua pork he's ever had which is saying something! a little hard to find in a condo area parking lot but worth the effort read more

Seafood boil was mostly corn and potatoes. Pretty good flavor but way too much butter. Pleasant attendant. Benches available in the middle of a residential development. read more

I had the pork tacos which were crispy and flavorful. The salsa was fresh. Delicious! Seems to be the going price for a food truck meal.

Food was extremely overpriced and underwhelming. One plate of deveined garlic shrimp with tip cost $25.48. The shrimp was nothing special and overcooked. There were probably 10 mid/small shrimp in total. And the salad had a bad taste to it. read more

The food wasn't really very good, and there wasn't any flexibility on menu items. I wouldn't recommend.

The sauce for the seafood boil was insane! You need to give it a try. The service was really friendly and nice even though they were very busy. 10/10! read more

You name your place Shrimp Paradise, people are going to have high expectations. And we did. Better to under promise and over deliver. Name your place "So so shrimp" and more people might be delighted. read more

Best value hands down! Got the pineapple shrimp tacos. Cooked to perfection, amazing balance of sweet and heat. Fat shrimp and enough to get one in every bite. Located in between buildings 17 and 5 in the Club Wyndham resort complex. When you see guest registration on your left, take the next right and follow the driveway to the loop. 3 food trucks there, Shrimp Paradise is the white one on far left. We will definitely be back and they deserve 5 stars in every way. read more

This place is one of the best places we ate at while in Kauai! The plates are amazing and come with a lot of food for only $20. They have a wide array of options and the best musubi I've had in my life! Besides the amazing scenery on the island this is one thing I'll miss the most and sadly we discovered it the day we left or we would've had it for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Do yourself and your stomach a favor and stop by at least once, you won't regret it! The customer service is top tier as well and the scenery is delightful. read more

Really delicious and perfectly prepared coconut shrimp and garlic shrimp. Can't wait to try the other preparations!

Pretty good food. Seemed fresh. Nice salad dressing. The shrimp had great flavor. Would go back!

Today I had the spicy shrimp tacos and they did not disappoint! The shrimp were cooked enough to be tasty without being rubbery. The spicy garlic sauce had a kick that made happy to have tried it. As always, the gentleman running the truck was super friendly and my tacos were quick to be served. Absolutely love the food from this truck!!! And, I forgot to take a picture because I was too excited for these shrimp tacos! read more
