About Richie's Huli

**Richie's Huli BBQ**

This yellow wagon parked in Kapaʻa serves up huli huli chicken that keeps locals coming back. Richie, a Kauai-born operator, has built a reputation for consistent BBQ execution.

The huli huli chicken is the main draw – you'll get massive, juicy portions that easily feed a family of four. One review noted a single serving was enough for an entire family, and customers consistently praise the quality. The ribs deliver solid smoky flavor, and the mac salad is a worthwhile side that rounds out the plate. On weekends, check the daily specials like teriyaki beef.

This is food truck dining at its core – you'll grab your plate and eat at outdoor picnic tables. The setup is casual and practical, exactly what works after a beach day. You might spot chickens wandering the parking lot (typical Kauai scene).

You'll find this spot works well for families, surfers with appetites, or anyone looking for substantial portions without resort markups.

**Before you go:** Hours are Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday until around 3pm. Call (808) 652-2229 to confirm before heading over.
