Review of Golden Fish Tacos at Earth Aloha Eats by hereforareason

When I was in Maui, these vegan fish tacos from a food truck in a random parking lot were honestly one of the best things I ate. They were SO DAMN GOOD!

Earlier that day, a sign declaring “vegan banana bread” led me to a man selling his own fantastic banana bread, accompanied by free coffee and great conversation. I wish I remembered his name; his business had a fantastic metal music pun. Anyway, he heartily recommended Earth Aloha Eats, so I just had to lure the rest of my vacation company there.

To give you a sense of what a blessing this food truck foray was for me—my crew that week was my partner’s entirely non-vegan family. You know the struggle of being stuck with people who thoughtlessly choose restaurant after restaurant with 0 mains you can eat and maybe 1 vegan side. To illustrate the point further, one day we brought sandwiches to a volcano hike, and I was about to smear a package of PB I managed to find onto some bread, only to find out the mom made meat and cheese sandwiches with the whole loaf…such that there was no bread left for me and somehow more sandwiches than there were people to eat them.

Anyway, these tacos were tasty, the “fish” absolutely to-die-for (without any of the death), drenched in satisfying sauce. I savored every bite.

Their setup was also awesome, with their neon sign and seating, the rock music being pumped out—and I was super excited to spot an abillion sticker on the truck! 🤟🏼

Wishing them continued success, and maybe one day I can return!
