It comes with a scoop of rice and we picked the macaroni salad. They also offer a lettuce salad. All for $19.95! The business model currently is carry out only, You get a text when your order is ready and out comes this generously filled clam shell of food.

When the food is ready, you get a text, pick-up is on the kitchen-side, backdoor. We'd heard good things about their steak, dynamite chicken, and ahi katsu so we wanted to try all three. There is a chicken + meat combo that allows you to upgrade the meat to ribeye; we ordered this plate with all green salad. Then we ordered the King Kam ahi katsu with rice and upgraded the side to imitation crab salad. If you love sauce, this is for you. Their fried items are nicely cooked, the ahi katsu had a nice rare center and the boneless chicken was still juicy, but both lost their crispness under a mountain of seasoned soy sauce, Kewpie mayo, sriracha aioli, and sweet chili sauce. With the additional garlic, katsuobushi, furikake, and green onion, these are flavor bombs. The ribeye had a nice char from the grill. It's served with a side of crack sauce which has a vinegar, fish sauce base, plus chili, garlic and cilantro. The heat from the steak and chicken withered the bed of green salad underneath, so we didn't eat it; serves us right for not getting rice and mac salad with a plate lunch. At Kingz, more is more.

You can then dunk your chicken in it- while still keeping your chicken crispy! I didn't care so much for the Mac salad imo- I'd ask for all rice, but definitely give it a try if you can't have a plate lunch w/o mac salad. It was a long wait. I think I waited more than an hour my first time. When I arrived my second time around, I got in line before they even arrived! I was still #10 I think. Took maybe 30mins but definitely worth the wait if you love your fried chicken crispy! I have yet to try their poke and beef stew (and other items they feature. Cash only!!!

You can find So FAT in front of Alii Place on most Fridays. Their menu is pretty consistent and…read moresimple, consisting mainly of their "Frickn chicken" which is a fried chicken and often a special that rotates out. Apparently they're known for their chicken- of which you can choose between original, garlic, ranch, spicy, furikake, or gravy. They get really busy so be sure to go early. People often order bulk orders too... and unfortunately they seem to take orders in rounds... So I stood 3rd in line waiting to order for nearly 40 min before they even took the first guy's order. Of course they must have taken a first round earlier as I arrived 30 min after they opened... My work day is quite busy and I'm impatient by nature so I did not appreciate standing around for 40 minutes just to wait to order. Then I hear her telling someone it's another 40 minutes for their food. I don't expect it to be quick to be honest, but would have wanted the opportunity to place an order. I was getting angrier and angrier by the second. They need to be more upfront and post on their truck that they take orders in phases so expect to wait 30min + to place your order. ESPECIALLY when you come downtown ... because majority of us are in the middle of our workdays and not able to spend our entire hour just waiting to order. It's inconsiderate and downright rude. I ended up walking away just as they were starting to take orders again because I don't want to support them and I don't have time to wait another 40 minutes when I've already spent over 45 minutes out of the office just waiting to order (plus my walk time). No food (especially heart attack inducing food) is worth that. Arghhh I can't recall the last time I've been so angry and irritated. I always say expectations are everything. Never be surprised by the price... I'm also not surprised when my food takes a long time to be ready... but first time I was surprised to wait 40 minutes to place an order when im only 3rd in line...because they're just not taking orders. PUT A SIGN UP! So those of us who don't have 2 hour lunch breaks can plan accordingly!

Delicious! Any of…read morethe taco meat options (beef, pork, or chicken) with "the works" on top (onion, cilantro, and sauces) are so so yummy! They are $5 each but well worth the price considering the quality of ingredients, the flavors, and the overall satisfaction you're going to feel afterwards. Accidental find in the Kaka'ako Farmers Market parking lot near Kewalo Basin. Odd hours but lots of parking available as well as sit-down dining options. Staff working were fun and quick with the food. Look forward to trying their other menu item next time, quesadillas!

Afternoon hangry moments are real…read more.. After a long work day my brains are fried and thinking of what to have for dinner is a mind games of what the mind and belly can agree on is real. So seeing a hot dog card right along Mother Waldron Park did capture my attention and decided to see what they have. Nothing really to see other than some chips hanging besides the table filled with condiments, as I did ask what they have to offer. It's all verbal no signs or prices even as she told me the types of hotdogs made which she did mention really fast so all I got was the last one of "all beef hot dog" with bacon on jalapeño cheese sauce and it does sound amazing so that's what I got. Not sure if they're part of the UFC as their cart and Instagram is filled with it more than anything kinda overkill imo and it just killed the vibe of this food cart. Bun slightly warm, hot dog same lukewarm which made it bleh and didn't bring out the all beef flavor bacon tasted like a pre-made item and the cheese sauce didn't have any jalapeño kick which was so disappointing...how much was all this $12!! For all this I expected to be "hot" and see chunks of jalapeño but it lacked so much in so many ways I was just sad. Condiments are all store bought and being sitting in the sun after asking which sauce do you recommend I went for the Garlic Aioli and it liquify out in globs...sigh! Given with just some parchment wrap no plate or anything sturdy I was left with a $12 with no other way to consume than to just stand there and dig in...not cool in so many ways!

Atb$18 for each, it's reasonably priced and their portions are large enough to have leftovers. The porchetta sandwich is packed with thinly sliced pork and slivers of crispy skin, lots of peppery arugula, and a spicy sauce. It's a very tasty and filling sandwich. Their bread is also very good. The half chicken plate is such a good deal! The organic chicken half is very large and meaty, and it comes with roasted vegetables and potatoes. Easily 2 meals. Service is very friendly and our cashier let us know it would be 8-10 minutes before our order would ve ready. It's nice to see a local business continue to provide excellent food at a reasonable price.

We got a roast beef and a pesto sandwich. -The roast beef sandwich was definitely our favorite. The bread so toasted and also fluffy. The sauce they had on the sandwich was just so terrific and onolicious!! We devoured it so fast, I can't remember what else was in it other than it was so freakin awesome! -The pesto sandwich was good too but definitely not as memorable as the roast beef. I can't remember exactly what type of meat it was (possibly turkey?). The pesto sauce was good and they put pickled onions in this sandwich so so Ono!!!

Though the previous owners have passed their beloved food truck to new owners, the food remains to…read morebe amazingly delicious and remains to have the same amazing service with a warm ambiance. They don't necessarily have a set menu so your best bet is to check out their Instagram page to see where they will be and what will they be serving. My favorite sandwich thus far is their po'ipu (turkey, sun-dried tomatoes, and pesto). The bread they use is foccacia which will fill you up pretty quickly. And because they usually operate during work day hours, it is best that you just eat half of the sandwich to avoid that afternoon crash. Prices for these sandwiches may be on the higher side but the quality of the food makes up for it. This food truck is definitely worth checking out. Make sure you follow their Instagram account and see where they will end up. Pro tip: turn on that notifications to see where they are and head there before the lunch rush appears.

I did like the strung lights shaped like a big top tent at kewalo and some of the staging. But the variety of food, vendors and entertainment in kakaako is just exponentially larger.

Da spot for instance was a food truck, opened a restaurant near university after success and now is opening a second location at AMC. So support food stand and food trucks, they might be your next fine dining experience in the future. This is the place to do it. It has a very pincnic atmosphere, live music, drinking section, etc. you can appreciate it all. My latest fav is Istanbul Turkish cuisine. They have plans to open a brick and mortar place in Chinatown. The food they produce is really tasty. I'd love to see the stuff they make in a full restaurant.

I honestly had no idea about Eat The Street, I was bored and checking events on Yelp as always and…read morewas trying to find something fun to do that obviously had something to do with eating. We decided to spend our "Black Friday" here, event started at 4:00 p.m to 9:00 p.m at Kakaako Park but we ended up showing up at 6:00 pm. We honestly didn't have that huge of an issue finding parking and the event wasn't that crowded, I'm sure it had a lot to do with everyone being at the parade or staying home the sl day after Thanksgiving. I highly recommend you show up early cause eating in the dark is kind of a pain so we had to shine the light on our phones to eat. I ordered my first food at "Mega Load Burger", they had choice of sliders and the infamous pineapple bowl with your choice of shrimp, pork, or kalbI. You can even choose fried rice or macaroni and cheese instead, even though it was dark and I couldn't see my food I really enjoyed the flavor of my garlic and rice, they had chunks of pineapple at bottom which made it a little difficult to eat with a plastic fork, but I appreciate they didn't waste it. My boyfriend ordered what we thought was an elote or Mexican corn from "The Corn Project" it was very good but the corn was so small, was a bit expensive for $6. We finally decided to get drinks at "ICE HNL" we saw they had bloodbath drinks on Instagram but were out so we ordered the smokin drink love potion instead, which was good made a instagrammable photo. I also checked "Eat The Streets" page and saw Postmate and Aokis shaved ice was giving away free shaved ice! I thought it was a awesome way to give everyone some nice free treats, make sure you tip! As we were leaving I of course saw a table of donuts laid out! Modo donuts was selling mochi donuts for $2 each and I had exactly $4 left so I asked for cookies and cream and my boyfriend got the matcha flavor. I've never had mochi donuts in my life and I'm so upset I didn't buy more! It was so chewy and delicious my boyfriend tried to steal mine and I had to swat him away! Most business accept card but they have an ATM in the park Incase.
