    This is a super hole in the wall place with surprisingly nice ambiance in December! Grab a table and enjoy the view of 'Āhuimanu stream as it exits to the ocean. We had the satay chicken, which had a really delicious peanut sauce and pad Thai; which was a bit too sweet for my taste. The woman working the front was really nice and gave us some extra turon (banana lumpia) with coconut (that was delicious!). Swing next door to the shop to grab drinks if you don't see something you like.

    After visiting the Byono-In temple, the family wanted some Thai food and decided on a small food truck on the side of the road. Also, shout out to food trucks all over Hawaii, since they seem to get a lot of yelp spots. Everyone enjoyed their food, we ordered garlic shrimp, green curry, papaya salad, sweet chili shrimp and shrimp pad Thai. The family was happy and so was I. Just a side note, they actually had a couple of restrooms in back, primitive but clean, I was thankful to say the least. This was a very nice find here in Eastern Oahu. Maybe you'll stumble on it some day.

    I highly recommend the pork chops here. We come here specifically for the deep fried pork goodness. Tommy is the owner and super friendly. Please note it is cash only. There is seating and unofficial parking in the dirt lot. You can choose jasmine or sticky rice with your entree. Step up to the window to order. Happy eating.

    Veggie pad thai but it really was veggie pad SA ew

    So disappointed in the food. We saw other reviews and were very excited to give it a try. We got vegetarian pad Thai (they were out of tofu), the spring rolls, papaya salad (medium spice). The pad Thai was actually pad SA ew. The noodles were thick and was a little soggy. It tasted good but that's not what we ordered. The noodles to veggie ratio was way off. I wish there would've been more noodles. The spring rolls might've been the best thing we got but this was just an appetizer and we aren't basing this review only on a good appetizer. Serviced with sweet fish sauce dipping sauce. The papaya salad was such a huge serving but tasted so bland. Couldn't tell there was any spicy heat in it. Also could hardly taste any fish sauce or lime or any other flavors that you would get from papaya salad. Such a disappointment.

    Delicious food with wonderful view of the mountains! The staff is super friendly. I highly recommend the veggie pad Thai. There is cover for rain. (:

    Pad Thai with chicken (i requested no peanuts)

    This hidden Thai food truck is located by the Kahalu'u convenient store across of 711. There is parking under the tree right in front of the truck and some benches to sit and enjoy your food. I made a take out order or chicken pad Thai and chicken panang curry. My food was ready in 10 minutes! All their plates are only $11 no tax, cash only. So for my two items I paid only $22! It is such a deal for the amount they give and the food is tasty!! The curry comes with some jasmine rice and lots of curry sauce plus vegetables in it. The pad Thai had so much noodles and the entire container was full to the top! I would definitely recommend this truck and plan to come back to try their other dishes. You really can't go wrong for $11! The man and woman who helped me were extremely friendly too! :)

    Came here for lunch b/c the hubby wanted to pick up food from the food truck vendor who also parks in the same area. Loved the pad thai (very generous serving!) and friendly owner, however, I was a bit turned off by the fact that he was not wearing a face covering.

    Penang curry and sticky rice

    Great food, excellent service. The owner is one of the most genuinely kind people I've met while trying different Thai food places around island. Very good quality food and you could taste how fresh the veggies were in the curry. He was very insightful for food choices and tips. He was very welcoming which isn't always common. They're worth a stop if you are craving some Thai food or a good experience. Can't wait for my next time to drive across island to try something else on the menu.

They didn't answer their phone so we went inside to order for take out, there was no other customers there when we arrived (I understand places can be busy at times or helping other customers, etc.) The food itself was alright, price point was not super expensive but the food portions also show that. The spring rolls also were not golden brown and kind of reminded me of frozen ones you can get at a grocery store.

    We've had a hard time actually be able to eat here. Third time is the charm I guess! First time it…read moresaid they were open, but they weren't. Second time we walked in two hours before close and were rudely told it was take out only. Third time we stopped in and I was worried because there wasn't anyone seated, but the kind woman sat us and we were finally able to try their food. I got the coconut soup, and the pineapple friend rice. The coconut soup was very bitter and I didn't like it at all. The pineapple fried rice was so hot I had to ask to have it remade. I got mild! I can handle a good amount of spice, but nowhere have I ever encountered a mild that made my nose run. I think it will take going a few times to truly find what I like there. Wasn't the greatest 'first' impression, but not bad enough to keep me from coming back. Inside is small, but had a few tables to sit at, parking can be hit or miss.

It really felt like a family owned business, and the same three people were there both days. Everyone was extremely nice, and honestly, I would come back just because of how welcoming they were. We ordered the sesame chicken with fried rice, and the portion of sesame chicken was huge. I definitely wasn't expecting that much food, but I'm not complaining. The chicken was really crispy and had a great flavor. The food also came out pretty quickly, so there wasn't much of a wait. One thing I really appreciated was how attentive they were with the water. I drink a lot of water, especially with how hot it is in Hawaii, and I mentioned that when we first sat down. Every time my glass started getting low, the gentleman would come over and refill it without me even having to ask. He probably refilled it 8 to 10 times, which I really appreciated. The music was also really good, and we had a nice window seat where we could look outside. The seating was comfortable and the whole experience was just really pleasant. I would definitely recommend coming here, especially if you appreciate good food and genuinely friendly service.
