    Popped into what we thought was Karuna Foods, but it simply was the Kaimu Country Market. As we…read morepulled out of the parking lot disappointed, to my surprise I noted a hand-painted sign directing Karuna to be located inside of Uncle Robert's. So we parked and headed inside. However, there was no longer a Karuna inside or out: We were informed that the chef closed-up shop during the pandemic. Needless to say, Karuna Foods was another casualty of the COVID pandemic.... :(

    I was so excited about this food stand. It has everything I can eat. It is gluten free and vegan…read moreand no soy products. The menu looked amazing. I thought I was in heaven. BUT! The food was terrible, I mean unedible. I got hot chocolate with marshmallows, mushroom soup and pie. All three things were very sour. But the service was sour too. Talk about service with no smile in sight. And the place was messy and dirty. The hot chocolate did not taste anything, I mean not remotely, like chocolate. It tasted like water with a little bit of coconut milk that had gone bad. The pie tasted like mushy oats that were made with coconut milk that has gone bad. And the mushroom soup tasted like sour water made with coconut milk that had gone bad, and there were no mushrooms in it. Terrible service, terrible "food." Gives healthy food a very bad name

    The hot chocolate with marshmallows looks good, but was gross. Simply tasted like sour coconut water. Not a hint of chocolate.

    I want it all! Let me preface by saying Linda and her husband (aka @sweetkine808) are for real…read morefoodies! Trust and believe me when I say if something is on their menu, it's INCREDIBLE! That said, let's start things off with that cannoli waffle (first pic) special! I'm actually gasping for air because that cannoli waffle left me breathless. Their homemade waffle shells are a work of art in itself, but that cannoli cream filling, which I'm going to assume had ricotta cheese in it, was absolutely sensational. The filling was velvety, rich, and sweet, and the ricotta cheese added a lovely mild nutty flavor. I also tasted a slight tang, so I'm wondering if they used mascarpone too. Whatever they did, they need to keep doing it! The chocolate chips not only added crunch but also added contrast because the cocoa flavor had a slight bitterness, so overall, it was very umami. Then they want to top it all off with whipped cream and caramel? Really! Just start a subscription service so I can subscribe. I will ask how long this will be on the menu, and I'll keep you all posted. I am OBSESSED, so hopefully, it's a permanent item, but if not, at least for another month Now let's shift focus to pic # 2, which is the MacChick with Maple Cinnamon Butter. So it's their homemade waffle cone stuffed with homemade mac & cheese, topped with fried chicken drenched in maple cinnamon butter. If I put you on to anything, let it be this! This is my new go-to MacChick (sounds like magic) combination. Heads up, @sweetkine808, I will be ordering this every time. The savory and sweet notes between the well-seasoned chicken and mouthwatering mac & cheese harmonized and blended so well with the sweet maple cinnamon butter and dusting of powdered sugar. I am not joking. If you see me in line, best believe I'm ordering this. You might as well name it the Kaliko Pic # 3 was the Chick-N-Sauce with BBQ Sauce Thoughts: Let me make this clear as well. Their fried chicken is really frickin good. That said, I need to ask if they make their own BBQ sauce cause this was ono loa! Pic # 4 was the Chick-N-Sauce with Ranch Sauce Thoughts: Honestly, what can I say at this point? I'm just going to give them applause Pic # 5 is the South Point lemonade which is a peach and lemon-flavored lemonade shaker. Pic # 6 is the Cherry Limeade Their lemonade drinks are so flavorful and refreshing. I can't wait to try them all. I may have to try that ube one next. https://www.instagram.com/p/Cogt_rhsOF1/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=

    First off, I am from Sinaloa, born and raised, and now live in California. I know what real Mexican…read morefood should taste like. Hands down, the quesabirria tacos and flautas are as good as they come--absolutely amazing. We happened upon this place on Yelp, and I was a little skeptical, but after the first bite, I felt transported back to Mexico. My entire family agreed that these are the best quesabirria tacos we have had outside of Mexico, and possibly even in Mexico. The flavors were amazing, and the consommé was absolutely delicious. We are regulars on the Big Island and normally do not eat Mexican food because we have never found a good spot, with the exception of Shaka Tacos. This place was really busy, and there was only one person working. She was doing it all--taking orders, collecting money, and making all the delicious food. She was never rude and was so pleasant. She said the cooks had called in and she was the only one there. Talk about dedication! She made sure everyone got their food, and it was made perfectly. I cannot commend her enough for all the work she did and for putting out an outstanding order of food. She is a real gem and should be treated as such! It is so hard to find good employees today, and her dedication and attitude inspired me. I wish we had gotten her name, but she said she is always there. If the food takes longer than you like, just be patient, because you are in for a treat when it comes out. Good food takes time, and the food is definitely worth the wait. We will definitely be coming back every time we are here. This place is a real gem. If I could give it more stars, I would. I hope everyone reading this takes my advice and goes to this wonderful place for the delicious food and the warm people.

    I have tried as many Mexican trucks/restaurants as I could find on the Big Island in the 4 1/2…read moreyears we have lived here. I have yet to find one that compares to good Mexican food in California, until Birria Boss. My Daughter-in-law, who is Mexican, found Birria Boss and I am super happy she did. This is now my go to place anytime I am in the Hilo area. Do yourself a favor and stop in for the Birria Ramen, Birria tacos, pastor tacos, as good as any you will find in California. So happy that I now can get my Mexican fix without a five hour flight.
