  I have eaten Ailene's teriyaki chicken when she had the little walk-in restaurant and it's just as good from the lunch wagon. Sweet and spicy with macaroni salad and rice plus extra sauce on the side. But I had never tried her Kalua pork till this weekend. An order of sliders (2) plus the sides was one of the best lunches I have ever purchased. Indoors or out. Beautiful soft, smoky, salty pulled pork on nice soft buns plus sides. Ohmahgoodness. And bonus, she is making Hawaiian kimchee! Not as spicy as Korean but a great gingery, garlicky, sour punch that compliments the rich pulled pork. Can't stop talking about it.

  Stopped here today and got the combo platter (Kahlua pork and teriyaki chicken over rice with a side of macaroni salad for $9) and a shaved ice ($2). The woman running the stand was very pleasant. My food was ready in just a few minutes. I wish I lived closer as I would visit more often!  There appeared to be a small covered eating area, but we enjoyed it at a state park just a mile or so away.  Just an FYI- I noticed a sign with her current hours on it in the window: 11:00am-2:30pm. Stand is located on 259th just off the main drag through Ocean Park (Vernon Ave.). Right near Lighthouse Realty. Try it!! We'll be back soon!

  Best Hawaiian food since Hawaii vacation several years ago.  It's all here, Moco Loco, Kalua Pork, etc.  We had those two for our first visit and can't wait to go back.  The folks are honest, fine people who steer you right - telling me my lunch was going to be large and I had better be hungry!  I was!  It was FANTASTIC!  Hubby's moco loco gravy was deep, dark and rich, with the required fried egg and hamburger patty over a lovely rice, perfectly cooked.  My Big Kahuna plate had Teriyaki chicken (thighs, oh yes!) grilled to perfection, and a huge pile of Kalua Pork - all meat with just a hint of good fat like it should have!  We are spreading the word because this place has just GOT to stay in biz.  While we were there, a couple of regulars came up and we all commenced talking about how delish the food is.  There is a vacant lot across the street, and the owner was saying someone should buy it and we could have a few more food trucks in there and all would benefit.  Hint hint!
  
  The food was so good I had to call Aileen, the cook, and tell her so.  She was delighted we loved her food!  We'll be back soon!
