Love this truck! Located on the lower side of Waikele outlet stores, in the parking lot on the left hand side of Petco, this truck offers hawaiian food. I only order side order because we don't need to pay for the rice and salad. Squid Luau - 5 stars - the best I've had. Maybe because it's a little sweeter than other eateries, and they have large chunks of squid in it. I can eat the whole container in one sitting, but I usually only eat half, and share the other half with my son. Smoked meat - 5 stars - on the sweeter side, and lots of flavor. Not too dry either. My son always asks me to get this and the squid luau, and it's gone in minutes. Service - always great, and average wait. Lots of parking since it is located on the left side of the strip of stores and safeway ends

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.

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!

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.

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.
