Laverne’s

After pickleball stopped to pickup household repair item at Home depot Kapolei, husband's hunger was triggered passing by Laverne's Food truck in the parking lot in Kapolei.After reviewing menu decided to share a combination plate of Kailua Pork and Cabbage and Pork Lau Lau which came with two scoops rice and a small Mac salad. The Kailua Pork and Cabbage was ono although could have received a little more pork in the mix.The Lau Lau was good and hot and delivered.Rice was on the cool side, would be better warm.They have a little outdoor space setup with tables and chairs, nicer than sitting our car. Service was fast, food came out quickly.All in all it is a good place to stop for a quick Hawaiian food fix while doing your shopping at Home Depot.

Laverne's is my go-to for squid luau.Their squid luau has the perfect balance of sweet and coconutty + savory. If you like coconut forward curries, you'd love this! Comes in both regular and mini options as well as ala carte! Service was great and we didn't have to wait long! Recommend it for a quick bite after shopping at the outlet!

This is my go to place for Kalua pig and lomi salmon. Its a lunch wagon in the waikele shopping center next to leonards. The menu is your usual Hawaiian type foods ...portions are decent and prices fair.I like their kalua pig...its not too salty and the lomi salmon is seasoned good.....I am no afficionado of Hawaiian food but I do like Lavernes...better to get a plate lunch than a Mcdonalds meal deal....when at Waikele shopping center.

I love Laverne's and have been coming here for years! We catered from them + would always pickup from their store in Waipahu when they had it. Brah, I came to the Waikele truck stop today for a side of Squid Luau and I saw they had pastele stew too so I got a side of that as well. My total was $25 for less than a pound of each! Their side containers shrunk and their prices are ridiculously high. I love this place but I probably won't come back because they going break my bank.

This is what I come for. Creamy caper sauce on mahi-mahi. Yummy My friend got the same the. She said she got the same thing last time. Still good!

Just got back from Europe and nothing beats the taste of home like Laverne's food truck at Waikele Outlet, Waipio!We went for the Beef Stew and Pork Lau Lau combo. The person who took our order was friendly, and we got our food really fast.The beef stew was delicious and the meat was super tender. Maybe just a pinch more salt would make it perfect. The pork lau lau was tasty too, though it was a bit dry. Overall, Laverne's hit the spot for some good local grindz.

We were in the Waikele area doing home improvement shopping for the hale and we were pretty hungry. We decided to check out the food trucks at the other side of Lowe's and past the Petco. I haven't had Laverne's Hawaiian food in a long time. I've always purchased the Chocolate crunch and that never disappoints (I got it!) I love Kalua pig, squid luau and I wanted to try their chicken long rice (it reminds me on my parents food as they have both passed). I got the number 1 plate which came with haupia and Lomi salmon and paid cash (I found the price dropped a bit :)The gentleman at the ordering window greeted me with a smile and service was quick!Now the food! Omg so freaking yummy! The Kalua pig was not oily and very tasty and they gave a lot! The squid luau was a mouthful of squid in every bite and the chicken long rice brought me to tears!This area has a wide area of food trucks from Filipino, Thai, Shave ice, Taste Tea, the ever famous Leonard's malasada and Laverne's is perfectly located at the end closest to Petco. Outside and open and parking is all around for your convenience.

I love this place. And now they have a new wagon at Kapolei in the Home Depot parking lot. It is very ONO!

I tasted the squid luau and couldn't stop. I ordered a mixed plate with pork adobo and squid luau. The squid luau was perfect. The squid was present, the coconut milk had just the right amount, and it was just sweet enough. The pork adobo was tender, but you have to like the flavor of peppercorns.One of my friends took the beef stew and roast pork plate. The roast pork was a little tough, and the beef stew was average. I definitely would come back here if I'm in the area and wanting ono local food.

Fast service good food could maybe have more desserts but other than that I recommend this place
