If you’re looking for the best shrimp on this side of the island, look no further than Romy’s Kahuku Prawns and Shrimp. There are a couple of food trucks and shrimp stands nearby, but Romy’s truly stands out in every way. The shrimp here is unbelievably fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked — you can taste the difference immediately. It’s caught right here in their own ponds, so it doesn’t get any fresher than this.

I ordered the garlic butter shrimp, and it was absolutely amazing — the sauce was rich, garlicky, and perfectly balanced with a touch of spice. The shrimp were large, juicy, and full of flavor. The rice and dipping sauce complemented the dish perfectly. Everything felt like it was made with care and attention to detail.

The prices are very reasonable for the quality and portion size you get, especially compared to other food trucks in the area. The staff is friendly, the service is quick, and the overall vibe is relaxed and local. There might be a bit of a wait depending on when you go, but trust me — it’s worth every minute.

If you’re exploring the North Shore, make sure Romy’s is on your list. It’s a true island gem and hands-down my favorite shrimp spot in Hawaii. Highly recommend!

I decided to come here cause it was popular, the shrimp was just simple garlic and butter and it was too salty I expected more for being so popular and 1 order when it’s not busy takes 45-60 min.

The original romys lost their lease after 30 yrs. This is there new location. About 1 mile from original. This is a food truck. Unlike previous place it has no bathrooms and no sinks or ability to wash your hands. I much preferred the previous place. I hope they can add bathrooms and sinks to this location otherwise I will probably go to Ted’s or the Sugarmill food trucks instead.

Was really let down as this was my 1st shrimp shack experience. We got the deep fried shrimp. They were wrapped in what seemed to be won ton wrapping. They were way over cooked to the point they weren’t good. Our friend garlic shrimp were better with copious amounts of crispy garlic everywhere. Wish we could’ve gotten those but wasn’t in the mood to peel the shrimp as stupid island politics forbade them from having ANY type of bathrooms or running water for cleanliness!!!!! Beautiful setting though but dissatisfied in general . Expensive too

We ordered No.4&5. Sadly sold out No.6 prawns.
The shrimps are fresh and could taste sweet even not adding any sauce.

If you enjoy outdoor dining, This is a Food truck with picnic tables. It was windy and of course there were flies. Wait was a little long, about 30 mins and it wasn’t busy. The fried sun fish was good. They didn’t have any diet sodas. If you’re sharing food, you have to pay for extra plates. Inconveniently there are no restrooms available. It’s okay for a quick bite and If you have a craving for shrimps.

When we visited in late March, it became a good truck instead of the building, not sure what happened.
Certainly the capacity of the truck made food production slower. The popular #1 combo takes 40+ minutes while the steamed shrimps and prawns we ordered took 20+ minutes as well.
A little pricey, but you are paying for freshness. Shrimps are plump and juicy, with a sweet taste. Prawns were just okay. It’s popular among the locals with many of them calling ahead to place order first.

Delicious shrimp!

It’s definitely worth the drive out to this truck. We were told to come here upon recommendation of our photographer who is local to Oahu. She said they have the best shrimp in the north shore. She wasn’t wrong! The shrimp/prawns are huge and super flavourful. I love that they have the heads on. The crispy fried garlic also makes their shrimp stand out from the other shrimp trucks. The rice was perfectly cooked and was amazing with the sauce and garlic. They have lots of tables and a hand washing station. We’d definitely come back for more shrimp!
