Island Pita

Best chicken shawarma/lamb pita I've had! So tasty!! Plus the nice couple running the truck are soo sweet! Call ahead to order cause there's always a crowd

Hidden Israeli food truck in Kailua! They are located on the side of the road which is why we never noticed it. I've also managed to always miss this place since they are only open M-F for 3 hours. Also a great spot to check out if you are there for the Thursday Kailua Farmer's Market. Very nice and friendly couple who runs this food truck. They have funny shirts that I enjoyed reading, hopefully they have those shirts next time to buy! I ordered the Chicken Schnitzel Plate ($17) and it was a generous portion of food. Plate came with 2 thinly sliced Chicken Schnitzel on top of rice, a side of hummus, pita bread, Israeli salad, pickled red cabbage, and tahina green sauce. I like that the chicken was not oily and still remained juicy. The tahina green sauce was good with the chicken, it reminded me of chimichurri sauce. I would suggest giving a little more sauce since that was the main enhancer of flavor for the plate. The Israeli salad was a nice refreshing and complementing side to the chicken. My main gripe was that the hummus could have used more flavor, it tasted a little more watery and bland than I was expecting. I wish the pita bread was warm as well. Overall, solid 4/5 star plate to grab when you're on the go. We will definitely come back to try other plates, especially the lamb gyro since I love lamb so much! Happy Eating Folks!

Great location - located on the street in front of Foodland Kailua - great food truck location with lots of parking - it's not a busy street after 5 pm so their hours are perfect! 5 pm - 8 pm Monday - FridayReally nice people running this truck and their food is yummy!Got the lamb kabobs sandwich- lamb was cooked well and perfect seasoning - pita is very good and thick enough to keep the sandwich together to the end! Can't wait to get back to try other menu items!

We drop by this truck whenever craving Israeli/Mediterranean food and they are open on Hekili St. Finally tried their schnitzel because I never equated it w Mediterranean food - turns out it is a very Israeli thing which actually makes sense historically. Plates come w Israeli salad, pita and hummus. Always delicious, fresh, filing plates of falafel, shawarma, stuffed pita etc and the people running the truck are invariably friendly and gracious.

The perfect post pilates bite :) My friend and I have grabbed this a couple times after doing pilates across the street and it always hits the spot. I love getting the lamb kabob pita sandwich, spicy. The lamb is always cooked tender and the spicy sauce really hits the spot. The pita has a good mix of everything you usually get on a plate mixed up and condensed. Just sometimes the pita at the end is needing some sauce. Mediterranean food is hard to come across on the island, this is a nice quick, easy, affordable fix for those cravings.

OMG! It's been a minute since I've experienced absolute deliciousness at this level! I'm not sure how this food truck wasn't on my radar till now. I was in Kailua, and It was Parked on Hekili street fronting Baskin and Robbins and foodland. I noticed some people actually brought out their own chairs and blankets to eat their food on the grass in the ambiance of the food truck lighting close by. I ordered the Chicken Shawarma sandwich $13. It was served quite modestly in a white bag. When I finally had a chance to unwrap it and eat it...it was absolutely divine with so many flavors my tastebuds were in heaven...slightly orgasmic experience TBH. It was perfectly stuffed with hummus, Israeli salad, pickled cabbage, chicken shawarma that had a slight curry flavor and drizzled with tahini sauce. The Pita was warm and delicious. Just everything tasted so good I gobbled up the entire sandwich!I live in town and this food truck may be worth the drive over the pali absolutely authentic and delicious! I can't wait to try their other items!

Always treated like family when I show up even if it's been a while. Love their pitas all day and even though I'm a carnivore I almost always get the falafel because it's so good.

Really nice chicken shawarma plate! Trust me get extra of the green hot sauce as it is so tasty on EVERYTHING. We got a side of the falafel as well which had a super crispy exterior, LOVE that. I want a big ol pile of that pickled red cabbage as my side.

Falafels are bomb, nice and crispy. Love the sides, love the paper takeout containers. Do wish they would move away from the plastic packaging for the pita in the future, but in the meantime the falafels are worth.

Absolutely stellar food. My wife grew up until she was authenticity and I was there for the past 12 years. We both sign off in the authenticity of the food, as well as it's delicious taste. Also the business owners are swell people! Highly recommended.​
