Da Bald Guy

My coworker recommended this place to me and I am SO glad it was in the same plaza as other food trucks so my family and I could all try different things. There's a seating area in the front of the truck. The truck itself is really pretty! I love the design.From the menu, I was torn between the fried poke and the braised boneless beef, but the cashier recommended the beef because she said that was what they were known for. I am so glad she recommended it. The beef was so tender and flavorful. It was delicious!! We got a second plate after finishing it because it was so good.The furikake salmon was also really good. I loved how it was crispy, the flavoring. AMAZING. A must get!We also got both the garlic shrimp and the chipotle shrimp. I loved that the shrimp was peeled, but the I would definitely pass on this and get the beef and salmon instead. Can't wait to go back next time we're in Oahu!!

Great shrimp at this popular food truck in north shore. They were quite busy for a Monday afternoon. As for the food- We loved the peeled shrimp in comparison to competitors in the area. The seasoning on the mac salad wasn't my favorite. A friend had the poke and really enjoyed it. They were out of a few things and wouldn't allow for combos when we went which was disappointing. Overall- it was a good meal. Next time I come back would love to try one of the dishes they weren't serving!

Everytime we come to the North Shore, we drive by to see if The Bald Guy is open. Never is. They sell out of their good stuff early and then close up shop. Now I understand why.Today was our lucky day! They were open and I almost jumped out of the car, I was so excited. We ordered the Cajun butter Shrimp plate and let me just telll you....woooo did that put this place on a whole different level for me. For Shrimp, we usually go to Giovannis. It's been a favorite for years. We finally found a place that surpasses our go-to. No peel shrimp, about 10 of them, spicy in all the right places, and freshly made with the perfect amount of cook time. Tender, juicy, & oh so yummy! On a bed of rice with homemade mac salad ftw! Yesss please! We will be back for more....if we're lucky again.

Stopped by on a Saturday at around 1:15 and was disappointed but not too surprised to hear that they'd run out of their Kalbi. I got the chopped steak instead and my friend got the pan fried poke, which I actually preferred. Both were delicious and great portions.

The best food truck on Oahu. Must visit place if you travel to Hawaii. Menu is simple. They provided breakfast and lunch. I tried their signature boneless Kalbi before and it tasted delicious. Currently my favorite is their Furikake Crusted Salmon. OMG! It's freaking good. The salmon was very moist and flavorful. My parents always order their Peeled Garlic Butter Shrimp. They said it tastes better than Giovannis. In addition, DO NOT miss their pan-fried poke. It's exceptionally delicious.Very friendly staffs and fast service. There're 3 tables for people to sit down and enjoy the food. I heard they just bought the food truck from JOJA and renovated it. Overall- DO NOT miss this food truck in North Shore.

Yum! My husband and I are big fans of The Great Food Truck Race so when we found out where the truck was while on a tour in Oahu, we had to make a point to come back to try it out!So glad we did. I ordered the butter garlic shrimp and my husband ordered the braised beef. Both of our meals were delicious, and they give you so much food! Both of ours were good for two meals. My husband said the beef just melted in your mouth, so I had to try it out and totally agreed. The butter garlic shrimp was so well seasoned. Nice truck, good selection of options. Friendly staff. The only thing we were disappointed about was that he wasn't actually there when we went--but that's ok! We just wanted to see him in the flesh after watching the show. Highly recommend.

I saw this place all over social media and on the must eat list in the north shore so I went to check it out. I got an order of the Cajun shrimp and felt like it was super underwhelming. The rice was kinda hard and not fluffy- it tasted like rice made over the stove top. The shrimp was ok. The flavor didn't blow me away and it was just alright. It's definitely not a must stop place up on the north shore. Maybe I got the wrong item because the short ribs looked really good too. Maybe go with that item instead.

We made the trip out to north shore just to try the food trucks and we were very curious about this place! We were craving garlic shrimp and I'm happy to report that the two shrimp options on the menu was perfect for our group of 4 to share!Me and my husband got the spicy Cajun garlic shrimp and it was so delicious, I could eat the garlic sauce with just the rice by itself! I thought the portions were big but the amount of rice they provide is on the heavier side I must say. If you're in the area, def take some time to explore the other trucks and vendors out that area as well! We would definitely be back.

I picked up some garlic shrimp from Da Bald Guy's stand at the SALT night market and was underwhelmed. The shrimp was very salty and not as flavorful as some of the other locations I got garlic shrimp while in Hawaii. Not sure if maybe they are better on their actual food truck than at the night market stand as the night market stand seemed to be very chaotic with a long line but this particular time I tried it was not great. Would be open to trying from their actual truck in the future.

Da best...One guy had been on my list it's Da Bald Guy and thanks to Honolulu Night Market in Kaka'ako it's been checked off. Though not my first experience enjoying his dishes it was through an event that I've been lucky to enjoy but I really wanted to get my hands on his plate.On this night he surely didn't disappoint with choices of Pan Fried Poke (spicy or regular), Chopped Rib Eye Steak, Boneless Braised Kalbi and Butter Garlic Shrimp (Spicy or Regular) and though I had intent of getting the Rib Eye it was the Pan Fried Poke since I haven't tried it yet and regular with aioli.With basically no wait as I watched in awe Da Bald Guy making it all along side staff finishing with sauce and garnishes was a very well developed system. The rice was cooked perfectly with a slight bite like you'd enjoy on a sushi so the ride home didn't get it all soggy and was still in prime bites.In the midst of the Night Market and the long lines the vibe was amazing and so was my plate.Thank you!
