My family lives on Oahu and we are all Hono shrimp fans. We have tried both Giovanni and Honos over the span of years. The Honos flavor is better, the shrimp is better, and the cabbage is great. We’ve frequented for years and go to Honos and recommend this shrimp truck every time we have guests.
I’ve seen her lay down the law by reminding folks who order food at a different food truck that try sit at hono tables (there are signs that say Honos tables) that it’s for hono shrimp customers. It’s a hard job (I bet some folks who didn’t even eat here write a review solely because of it) however, I appreciate it. We typically have no problem finding a seat at honos given our ratio of visits. Obviously there are occasionally some busy days. Anyway, I’ve tried all the stuff on the menu, I still prefer the garlic shrimp and I sometimes get double cabbage instead of two scoops of rice and one side of cabbage. My friends or visitors sometimes like the spicy shrimp, however, to me it’s too sweet, spicy and tangy at the same time for my taste. The kalbi is also good for non shrimp lovers. Adding extra shrimp is also pretty reasonably priced especially if you want to...

Service There was no line whenever I get there (Many ppl was in line on Giovanni's). Cashier lady was watching or typing on phone. When I said hello to her, no greeting. Once she completed what she did, I asked her for Spicy shrimp. But still no greeting. Dont be expect to much from this truck
Food I had Spicy garlic shrimp. The food was great. But only thing I can remember is now the POOR SERVICE. I also had scampi from Giovanni's and there service is even betther and well prepared. I rather to get more food from the Giovanni's
Atmosphere As it located in food truck court area, you will see many visitors out there. Due to that you should expect the traffic, and the location has limited parking slots. Other than that, good environment to...
One of the worst servers I have ever met. The lady seemed upset to be there. No smile. Very curt answers with rude attitude. It wasn’t just towards me but all other customers that I have observed while I was there. When she was handing me my plate, one of the forks fell on the ground. I asked for an extra folk but she gave me this angry look and says “we only serve 2 forks per plate.” With an attitude. No room for negotiation. In the mean time, the fruit truck right across offered us as many forks as we want when we bought their fruit. They did not offer napkins. We threw away our dishes in their trash can and they stopped us fr throwing out our soda bottles because we didn’t buy the soda from their store. Their food was decent… but nothing to rave about. I wouldn’t go back to this store again and wouldn’t recommend to anyone else for their plain rude attitude towards...
