Came here on a Saturday afternoon. No line, but food took 15-20 min to cook. Nice that it's cooked fresh, and we took the opportunity to walk around the local street fare while we waited. We got the mahi mahi fish and taro chips. My kids love fried fish, but the youngest found it too spicy (he's very sensitive). I loved the fish, it was my favorite out of everything I ordered. My kids loved the taro chips. I also got the lamb plate with the palau. Tasty. My daughter liked the lamb. The sausage had a bit of kick to it. I got extra mango salad instead of the cassava. Generous portion of food. I'd definitely come back. They said they're here during the weekends. Check out their Instagram for their latest locations.

Vuvale is Fijian for family and that is what Fijian BBQ's Hayward food truck makes you feel like from beginning to end. You feel like they are opening their home to you between the food made with love that comes out of their food truck and their friendly and welcoming demeanor.With 100% halal meats from locally owned businesses or directly from the South Pacific, you are helping support communities local to us and them.We got the New Zealand Lamb BBQ with lamb palau, lamb sausage, mango salad, and taro and the Fijian take of fish and chips with Fiji style fried salmon and taro fries. The sausage in the lamb BBQ had more heat than expected so the fried salmon is more up my alley and I could eat those taro fries all day. Vinaka Fijian BBQ for bringing us a taste of Fiji to the Bay Area.

We waited for a hour for the truck to come and then even called but no response. We had been here from 12-1:30pm

We were looking for restaurant and saw this truck as long the way. We changed our mind and decided to give it a try. The owner was very nice. Tried the lamb and combo plate and a side of garlic butter taro fries. Food took about 15 min and that was a good sign. Freshly cooked. Everything was delicious and flavorful. The meat was tender and juicy. Since it was cold outside, the owner was kind enough to tell us to wait in the our car and he would bring it out. Highly recommend this place and we always support local business. Will definitely come back for more.

had the combo, and the quality and amount of food was worth the value.While the white chicken did get dry on the charred edges, the lamb palau, lamb sausage and beef had that perfect taste and chew! Question, can you make a combo of the lamb and fish?Please consider joining those food truck mafia groups so they can provide seating.Other than that, you have a repeat customer in me!
BULA! BULA!! I LOVE LOVE LOVE the food from here!!! I've never been big on lamb sausage but man, they make it to perfection! The plate serves everything.....meat, rice, DALO, mango salsa and to my surprise tonight, they included tomato chutney! YUM! YUM! YUMMY!!!! They don't skimp on the meat either. Keep up the great work family, love having some home-cooked DELICIOUS food! Looking forward to meeting the incredible people who are feeding me! Much love

Brother Seon creates masterpieces! Halal lamb and chicken it's great! Here's the thing to how great Seon is. He gets lamb which is expensive but serves it to the hayward community because that's the halal way. Giving back to community. The lamb palau is out of this world. The lamb sausage is a delicacy. The taro fries i didn't expect such simplicity would put a sparkle in my eyes. The mango salad makes me think all the workers know something about mango salsa. So they reach across the communities and i bet you a lot of latinos will love the mango salad which also comes with an order of the chicken plate and the lamb plate. Beautiful!

We decided to stop here for an impromptu pick-up. This is a food truck and there is no real place to sit or stand and eat. We got the BBQ combo plate and the ceviche (kokoda) since they were out of the fish and chips unfortunately. Food was good. The BBQ combo is enough to feed two fairly easily. The grilled lamb was awesome, as was the grilled chicken. The lamb sausage was not too much to our taste, it was a little greasy. The rice (palau) was also decent. The ceviche was a little small, agreed it is listed as a side. We should have asked beforehand. Also, it was not too heavy on the fish. It was interesting to try, but I doubt we will get it again. The food is interesting and definitely worth trying. We might go when we feel like trying Fijian food again. Good that it is located in the heart of downtown Hayward.

I tried the Fish and Taro fries and a Lamb BBQ place and enjoyed them equally. First, the Fish and Taro fries. The fish had a seasoning that included tumeric, it had a tiny bit if heat to it, a light batter and the fish was very moist. Paired with the taro fries this was a nice rounded out meal with a decent portion. Second was the New Zealand Lamb BBQ. The lamb is cut thin with the bone included. A mild bit of heat and with nice charring. I found this to be the center stage item and the best tasting. This was paired with a lamb sausage, which after eating it was a Medium heat and had a long afterburn. A moist sausage that remind me of a Merguez. All of this was on top of lamb Palau ( served with a piece of taro and mango salad. I found this portion to be larger than the fish and taro. Again I enjoyed them equally and would definately get them again. Items I did not try, but was very interested in was the Kokoda which was the Mahi Mahji ceviche. I also saw they had Cassava cake too. They also had Palusami (sweet corned beef) also on the menu. I ordered my food when I arrived, and it was ready in about 20 minutes. I parked in the dirt lot and took the food home to eat. Throughly en joyed this and would definately return.
