What Duncan Rolfson doesn't like about Big Wave Shrimp Truck:

Food Truck in Haleiwa, you will have lots of shrimp trucks to choose from, and I've eaten at all of them. Just be a use one is the oldest or gets the most reviews does not make it the best. Keep in mind that none of these trucks serve fresh shrimp from Kahuku. Of them, Big wave has the most balanced flavor, not just hot or garlic, but a well balanced and large plate of Shrimp.
