    Beefs & more beefs!
    Tom W.

    After checking-off all the restaurants on our list, we finally hit the food trucks, up the road, for some of the best lunch plates offered in the Waikiki Walking Distance, which is a real thing, I'm deciding right now. Really, really tasty stuff. Fun staff. And it came with some bible reference on my Styrofoam container, SO NOW I'M SAVED Y'ALL!

    Very very good. Tons of meat...chicken, galbi (beef), and smoked meat (pork), macaroni salad was close to Mac n cheese so very interesting. Tasty, nevertheless. The rice was good with the sauce from the meat. The smoked pork was my fave. The galbi was tasty but hard to chew. The chicken was good but thick. Everything really had delicious flavor. It was a good experience for Hawaii bbq I think.

    We decided to try this (lol) food truck by our hotel on a whim and it was soooo delicious. Tbh, I wasn't expecting too much since we were in a touristy area. We got the plate of creamy garlic shrimp and lilikoi smoked meat! The creamy garlic sauce was super rich and fragrant! The smoked meat was very tender and juicy, with a hint of sweetness. We also were convinced on getting their island crusher. I believe we got peach mango and they add some li hing mui in it. We too were surprised when it rang up as $12 but the portion was decently large AND might I add super delicious and different than other drinks offered around. Service was super kind and efficient. We would stop by often during our stay and it seems like they sell out of things pretty often, so be sure to not get there too late!! Overall, I am very pleased with our spontaneous decision to eat at Trydis BBQ!

    Short ribs and garlic shrimp  ask for extra sauce

    Hands down the best food truck I've had in Hawaii! The food was incredible--honestly even better than Giovanni's Shrimp Truck, which says a lot. Every bite was packed with flavor, fresh, and cooked perfectly. Their homemade fruit juice was one of my favorite drinks I've had on the island--so fresh and refreshing. No place in Hawaii beat this food truck for me. If you're visiting, this is a must-stop! I got the short ribs and garlic shrimp -ask for extra sauce of the shrimp ,my next dish was smoked meat and was cooked to perfection

    Just go here for their Creamy Garlic Shrimp!  You will be very happy.

    Just go here for their Creamy Garlic Shrimp! You will be very happy. This food truck is about a half mile away from the bustling Waikiki area but very much worth the walk. The owners are so incredibly kind and sweet. As a preggo lady, I was craving some garlic shrimp and they did NOT disappoint. The portion was generous and the flavor was amazing. There was more rice under the shrimp. It was indeed very creamy and saucy -- just the way I like it. The Mac salad was perfectly seasoned and paired well with the rice and shrimp. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There is plenty of seating in the food truck area with a bunch of other trucks serving other foods and drinks.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Stop reading the reviews and just go eat here!!!

    We were walking around the area and happened on a group of food trucks. We're always excited to explore local food trucks and as soon as we passed the Trydis truck and saw the menu we knew we wanted to try it. The owner was inside the truck and told us more about the food and made some recommendations. We ended up ordering the lilikoi smoked meat and grabbed one of their drinks as well. The portions were generous and the lilikoi smoked meat came with mac salad and rice. Their mac salad is make with spaghetti instead of elbows so it was different than what I'm used to but seasoned really well. The meat was flavorful and juicy and the fruit juice was refreshing. If you get a chance to try their food I'd highly recommend it.

    We had mix reviews on this place but still give it 4 stars. The Kalbi, Smoked Meat and Chicken were excellent. However their shrimp was not the best we've had on the island - and was difficult to peel. The Mac salad was different but still tasty. Slightly overpriced as well.

    What we got: - the three meats deal: llikoi smoked meat, creamy garlic shrimp, and bbq chicken. Wow the portion was huge and this was around $35 ish? From what i remember. The shrimp was so creamy and garlicky and i liked that they kept the head on. The chicken was so tender and flavorful. The smoked meat was also tender (but a little too sweet for my liking.) if i had to pick one id go with the bbq chicken.. or the shrimp (its so hard to pick because both were delicious) ! The mac salad was also unique. The guy was so helpful and nice, and we could tell he cared about his food. He gave good vibes. I definitely felt like i gained 5 pounds after eating this but it was worth it.

    tried this hawaiian bbq truck on our first night in oahu and really enjoyed everything. the service was extremely friendly, she even let us try some samples of the food. most of the kalbi were tender and marinaded nicely and the shrimp was cooked nicely as well. not exactly the best shrimp i've had on the island, but still great!

    The service here is very good. I was given a sample of some of the meats they have to decide what I wanted to order. All were good. The food truck is located with a few others and a nice spot in Waikīkī. The Kalbi ribs and chicken were so good. Marinated well and cooked to perfection. Nice and juicy. The Mac salad is different. Has tuna in it; I thought it was a good version of it and ate it all. Definitely a place to check out for Hawaiian food.

    This food truck is exceptional. The portion size is wonderful, the short rib beef is so delicious and the barbecue chicken is not just a side character - it carries its weight in deliciousness even against the beef. The char is perfect and so fresh and tender. These people are precious and I can tell carry a spirit of Excellence. They love the Lord and honor and steward their gifts of hospitality well. May God bless them and multiply their business.

    Absolute gem in the Waikiki area...best Hawaiian BBQ on Oahu and served up with genuine Alhoa energy. Got the ribs and mixed meat split it two ways and was more than full. Support good vibes and good food!

    I'd been in Hawaii for three weeks when I found Trydis. It was hands-down the best meal of my trip. I highly recommend the Kalbi ribs!

    I was craving Korean cold noodles in this summer heat, so we decided to stop by for lunch. We…read morearrived around 12:30 p.m. when there were only a few parties dining in, but the restaurant quickly filled up by the time our food arrived. Their parking lot also extends further so it becomes a pretty decent size and we had no trouble finding a spot. The banchans were good! One of the sides was poke, which we've never seen at a Korean restaurant before. It was unexpected, but so fresh and delicious. We ordered the cold noodles, spicy pork bulgogi, and seafood pancake. Everything was really good, and we'd honestly rank those dishes above most of the Korean restaurants we've been to. The seafood pancake was packed with seafood flavor, and they definitely didn't skimp on the squid. The spicy pork bulgogi came with a bowl of rice and had the right amount of spicy. The cold noodles totally hit the spot and had just the right amount of toppings in every bite. I was left very satisfied and we even had leftovers of the pork and pancake to take home. Service was friendly, and everything arrived in a timely manner. We'll definitely be back soon to try the AYCE and the soups!

    I came here for lunch. I noticed this place changed owners awhile ago. Under the new name,…read moreMoobongri, they offer Ala carte menu items as well as an AYCE menu. I like that they open at 10am and that they serve delicious banchan. I came in one weekday and was seated at one of the regular tables. I guess they assumed I wasn't going to get the AYCE, even though it's pretty affordable for weekday lunch (like $28). Id like to come back to try the ayce sometime. I decided on the cold noodle and kalbi combo for $24. The cold noodles by themselves are only $14, so I thought there would be at least a couple pieces of kalbi in the combo. Nope. Apparently one piece of kalbi is $10. It was served hot, but it was served on a hot plate with onions and the plate itself wasn't hot. Why serve it on a hot plate? Very confusing. The cold noodles were refreshing, but you can get pretty good cold noodles at any Korean restaurant I think. I was a little disappointed in the quantity of food for the combo. Or I wish they had an actual lunch special, maybe I should have just got the ayce at this point right? But I wanted the cold noodles.... Oh well. It doesn't seem like they changed the interior all that much. It was pretty nice inside to begin with and there is a big parking lot. The workers come by when you ring the table side bell. Lol, otherwise they kind of just drop off the food and leave you alone. I was surprised there were like 3 other couples eating from the Ala carte menu at 10:30. I would possibly come back to try their other soups, but I wouldn't get suckered into getting the combos.
