We have been to multiple islands in Hawaii and have had great Hawaiian food in California. This food truck was a surprise and it was amazing. Positives: -their prices were very good and reasonable. -you get a lot of food, great bang for your buck. It was much appreciated especially coming from California where everything still costs an arm and a leg. It's so bad in California that I would have to share with my wife when we go out to try and save money. Sure we can stay home, but we're on vacation and I want to give her a good time. In California I would have to decide between filling up my tank or going out to eat ‍ -we got the BBQ mix plate which had short ribs, teriyaki chicken, and bbq beef. Everything tasted great, I loved how the chicken wasn't too sweet. My wife loved the galbi, that's saying a lot because she's very picky with her galbi. It was just the right amount of savory and had just the right amount of fat. We also got the poke bowl, the fish wasn't too sweet very good and tasted fresh. -service was quick and friendly Ambiance: Note that this is a food truck though they gave a small covered area for rainy days and if you want to eat your food right away. It's that food. Overall 5/5 We didn't expect to find such good Hawaiian food in Astoria, can't wait to come back. read more

Tuimato Hawaiian Bbq - Mixed BBQ combo - Food Trucks Near Me - Astoria, Oregon

When: Sunday Jan. 18th. 2026; 1:00 pm., ordered (2) take-out plates. This Hawaiian Comfort Food truck has a great location in Astoria. It's on property at a Shell gas station with a convenience store and Growler Guys branch. There is enough strategic parking spots for quick pick up and go. The ambiance of this spot is that there is ample outdoor seating for those brave enough to handle the weather, with most of them covered for rain protection. The service was authentic Hawaiian Style customer service. It always starts off " Whoa, what part you from"... And the conversation could go on for hours without even talking about food. Owner is from Wahiawa (Island of Oahu), his cousin helping him cook is from Waiahole (Oahu) and the daughter of the owner was taking the orders up front. The first test of any Hawaiian Comfort Food eatery is the weight of the take out container. If you need two hands to carry the package, then your in for a treat. The BBQ mix plate was on-point. The Teri-Beef had the right amount of sweetness and juicyness making it a must try for any first timer trying Hawaiian comfort food or former Kamaaina, craving for Island grinds. When people travel along the Oregon Coast, Fish & Chips or seafood is always on top of the eating bucket list. However, you may want to add Tuimato's to that bucket list, for belly satisfaction and enjoying a little bit of Hawaiian Style hospitality. read more

I was so excited to finally try this good cart. It was good, not great. The meat had great flavor but, was a bit burnt which was disappointing. The Mac salad was better than expected. Portion size was great. read more

Cool food truck attached to a cool mini mart with the Growler Guys inside! Poke and mixed plates are done right and served with the Aloha spirit! Definitely will check in whenever we're in the area. read more

Kinda hidden behind a gas station on the main drag in Astoria, this little gem of a food truck is the real deal. Food that tastes like it came off a food truck in Waipahu, we were very happy with the quality, the price, and how much we got for our money! If you like Hawaiian food and can't get closer than 3,000 miles to Hawaii, stop in Astoria and visit Tuimato's truck. You wont be disappointed if you get the 'meat lovers' plate! Ono! read more

Tuimato Hawaiian Bbq - In Astoria of all places! - Food Trucks Near Me - Astoria, Oregon

I got the mixed plate, which was pretty good in general and I am glad I tried it. In the future I think I would order the teriyaki chicken or the rib bones. The steak was good good but a little too sweet for me. read more

Me and my husband visited here on our honeymoon 9 months ago and the first time we went, I was immediatley in love with the food. We went twice and the kalua just kept getting better. We have since gone back and found the owner got 3 awards in Hawaii and honestly, well deserved. The owner and other employees (1 or 2) are very friendly and always smiling. The outdoor seating is very nice and there's even a firepit and a game of corn hole. Best kalua I've ever had! It's good hot and its really good colder as well. So juicy and so much flavor. Will always recommend Tuimato Hawaiian Bbq I can only give 5 stars but genuinely 10/5 read more

Tuimato Hawaiian Bbq - Kalua and rice - Food Trucks Near Me - Astoria, Oregon

It hit the spot love love Hawaiian food, and living in SoCal we always had many places to choose from. Super happy this truck is here in Astoria as there are very few (legit) API foods to eat in the area. I ate every morsel of the BBQ mix plate. Portion was big and so worth it. It can be shared, but know that it was "dunk that rice into the sauce at the end" good.... Iykyk read more

Food was so good, sauces on the side were amazing, the guys working the stand were super chill, prices are very reasonable, and it's next to a brewery and gas station so your options for drinks are endless. Service and ambience was an honorable mention, they have out door seating and a nice fire going. read more

Solid food and great service. Prices a little higher than I would like but the food is tasty, good portions and fresh. The sauce is sweet and flavorful. Rice is not too mushy and the meat is cooked just right. The trailer is tucked in next to a gas station so it's not a great place to dine but the food is well worth it so don't over look this place. read more

Great service, food is excellent. I personally really like the salad, my favorite. I like the Chicken too! read more

I'm from Kaneohe, Hawaii and can confirm this is the BEST place for Hawaiian food. I heard "big boy in love" playing on the loud speaker wondering where it was coming from and it was this Hawaiian plate lunch wagon. What a surprise! The Mac salad was killer here, most places put too much mayonnaise but Tuimatos does it jussssr riiight. DEFINITELY STOP HERE for ono food! Great seating area under the tree. Owner is from Wahiawa, Hawaii and the food here is legit! 100/10 reccomend, you won't be disappointed. Thank you for the yummy food, hit the spot!! Uncle even threw in extra mac salad :) I'll drive all the way from Portland for this food. Mahalo!! read more
