This is our favorite place in town to grab Hawaiian and local food! We recently catered this for a party of 15 (lau lau, guava chicken, etc.), and everyone was impressed. We appreciated the generous portions, as well as Roscoe's positive attitude and prompt communication.

I still salivate at the memory of the delicious guava bbq pork salad I had at the Top of Mauna Kea Food Truck. (Whenever I try to tell people about this food truck they get confused and think that it is literally at the top of Mauna Kea. Not so! It can be found around the town of Waimea.)

I almost never give bad reviews but this place earned it by grossly overcharging. I didn’t go back to complain because we were half way home before I calculated; the woman does not provide receipts plus they only accept cash so it would have been hard to prove. My bill should have been $75 (2 shrimp tempura; 1 char siu chicken; 2 orders of lumpia & 5 donuts - plus tax I am told is 4.5%) but she charged me $106.25. She also spoke extremely softly behind her mask inside food truck - so very difficult to hear her over their very loud generator. The food itself was ok but not exceptional - the plate lunches at L&L are larger and as good or better tasting - and also priced at ~ $7-8 less per plate. Also I ordered beef lumpia but she gave us vegetable; & my friend said they didn’t tempura the shrimp themselves - they are the same tempura shrimp you buy frozen at Foodland. I’m wouldn’t have written a bad review, however, if this woman had not charged me $106.25 for an ~ $80 order. Overcharging customers $25 & not providing receipts is unscrupulous - stealing.
