The Rice Man Hawai’i food truck in Waikiki serves an incredible steak and shrimp plate! The steak is tender and flavorful, the shrimp is juicy and perfectly cooked and the rice ties it all together like a classic local-style plate lunch. Also can ask for more broccoli in substitute for your rice for those with dietary restrictions. Ono grindz, generous portions, and true aloha vibes. Easily one of the best meals in Honolulu. If you love seafood, the pan seared salmon is a must try!
The Rice Man Hawaii is hands down one of the best food trucks in Waikiki! 🌴 I tried their new cookie butter croffle with Chantilly cream and it was AMAZING — crispy, buttery, and full of flavor. I also had the cookie butter whipped coffee, and it’s honestly the best dessert drink I’ve had in Honolulu. If you’re looking for unique sweets, late-night food, or just the best place to eat near Waikiki Beach, this spot is a must. Friendly service, great vibes, and the food is on another level. Highly recommend for locals and visitors!”
Cajun lobster & shrimp with Alfredo pasta was my choice for supper and it was amazing! The seafood was cooked to perfection-tender and moist. The alfredo sauce is very tasty and coats the pasta nicely. Most dishes come with rice, so if you order pasta, be prepared to wait 10 mins or more to allow for cooking time. Hubby tried their bacon, cheese & ranch waffle fries. Again, they were amazing! This food truck is not afraid to put plenty of toppings on their dishes, and it's much appreciated.
My buzzer seemed broken and didn’t go off so I was waiting for my food even though it was ready for awhile. But the cooks apologized. Would visit again, I got the Cajun salmon which was 19$. Good but spicy
