we’d heard good things about giovanni’s from a number of our friends, so we put it on our “to visit” list when we went to oahu last year.
along a stretch of the north shore, there are shrimp trucks scattered along the road and giovanni’s happens to be one of them.
you get a plate of seasoned shrimp with 2 scoops of rice (check out our pictures!), and albeit it’s a bit pricey for what you get, i still found it enjoyable and tasty. i wouldn’t drive out of my way just to visit giovanni’s, but it’s a delicious stop along the north shore while looking for big surf.
you peel the shrimp yourself so it gets fairly messy with all the garlic and melted butter, but given it’s being served from a truck, the shrimp tastes fairly fresh, juicy, and plump.

I was not pleased. Since I had done the research ahead of time, I had great expectations for this place…from all the reviews. However, I was met with cold, flavor-less shrimp. DO NOT GO. TERRIBLE RIP-OFF.
