I ate at this Food Truck last Month Jul 25. They provided outstanding and respectful service. Their Falafel is the best I've ever eaten.

Super friendly, perfectly crispy and fresh falafel. The sandwich pita was very fluffy and the white spicy sauce was awesome too!

Falafel is excellent: amazing crunch on outside and delightfully flavorful inside. Chicken schwarma is very flavorful as well. Highly recommend the plates.

Deeply flavorful, softest, fluffiest falafel and pita on the island or the mainland. The Moroccan hot sauce is 🤌

The fella read my mind and shared a sample of some mighty fine falafel - if you are hungry and want an easy but very satisfying meal - find this place

I got the shashuka platter. I thought it was tasty, but there was some runny liquid maybe coming from the shashuka that caused half of the hummus to become watery. It had a good balance of veggies and pickles.

My partner got the chicken shawarma. We did agree the pita bread was the best part of the meal… but the protein and slaw ratio was off. The watery stuff was pooling at the bottom of the pita. The chicken was scant (in my partner’s opinion) and only on the top of the pita, so as he continued to eat it, there was mostly just the veggie slaw.

Falafel was only warm (not hot) so didn’t feel fresh like the rest of the meal. But we did appreciate how it didn’t feel greasy inside and the outside had a nice crunch.

It was cute they had a spray… I guess to scare off birds?

Hands on the best food truck on the island!
The samples are amazing but the rest of the menu is also so delicious, wow! Definitely recommend the Shakshuka sandwich, so good and got some falafels on the side.
Everything is fresh and flavourful and the staff there are a lot of fun!
Mahalo and will be coming back here on my next visit for sure!
