This small trailer has the best Kalua Pork we've tasted in Kauai. The plate comes with Hawaiian sides like Poi, taro macaroni salad, lomi lomi salmon, and a taro desert, plus rice. We enjoyed a homemade ginger soda with lunch. There are picnic tables to...enjoy your meal. Look for it in the right after you cross over the Hanalei River. It's clean, staff is friendly, and it's local!More

We had Kahlua Pork wrapped in taro leaves, so yummy. The plate lunch came with poi or rice, Mac salad, salmon salad and taro cake for dessert! A nice food truck in Hanelei with a little patio. Food was quick, fresh, hot and delicious. We...will go back.More

If u really want to go, go early as they tend to run out of food. The kulolo is great, And the taro mochi cake is not bad. The kalua pig is mediocre and the point was a bit on the sour side. The taro...smoothies are nothing to write home about either- and I think they're very overpriced for what you get. Just average food, for slightly above average pricing.More

Plan on stopping at the cute Hanalei Taro & Juice food truck around lunchtime when exploring Hanalei. The pork tacos are immense. My order was enough for two but I didn’t share. The ginger lemonade had a great kick Very tasty! There are picnic tables...under a shaded roof. Fun to watch the roosters that roam around.More

I had a turkey sandwhich and fruit punch and they were both delicious. They have lovely little tables under a shaded canopy. Im going back to try the vegetarian burger next.

Had the taro burger with hummus for lunch which was pretty tasty. We took along the tarp snack for a hike later in the week and it was the perfect treat after hiking through Ke-e Beach Park.

We had the steamed chicken in taro leaves - totally bland and missing any sort of flavor. Also had Taro hummus which was also bland. I had many Taro dishes in CA given how healthy living californians are but was disappointed that this place lacked...creativity in adding some flavor to the bland taro. Skip & avoidMore

Drove past and glad I was looking this way because I quickly recognized the kulolo lining their window! Made my boyfriend turn around so I could go get some. The kulolo (a dessert of taro, coconut milk, and sugar) was so fresh! I bought one...to take back to my family and one for myself, but wish I bought more! The best quality of kulolo I've ever had- and I live in Hawaii and eat it all the time!More

We were looking for a smoothie while visiting Hanalei Bay and we saw this little food truck on the roadside. Their specialty is food with taro in it including plate lunches and other hot food. They only had two smoothie options, both with taro in...them so we had one of each. They were both delicious. Nothing weird about the taro. But probably not the best spot if you are just looking for a smoothing. We didn't try the other food.More

A historic tour of a Taro farm lead by Lindsey the fifth generation of taro farmers in Hanalei Kauai. We learned so much about the cultivation of taro. We were taught the preparation of the taro plant into a food source. Lindsey also explained the...effects of the catastrophic foods of 2018 in Kauai. There are five endangered Hawaiian birds living and breeding in and around the taro farm. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience. The tour begins in Hanalei, not far from the Dolphin RestaurantMore
