They make the BEST chicken long rice! And they have Haupia. I just wish there were a few tables for us to eat at.

I first had Laverne's in 2021 amd had no idea what chicken long rice was. Today, I'm back after spending 2 years dreaming about it. I know I will never find this on the main land and I don't know if and when I'll ever come back to Hawai'i but God knows if I do, I'm coming back to Laverne's!! You will be grateful if you do!

Lavernes is one of a handful of my top favorite Lunch Wagons and definitely my top spot for a smoked meat plate. I always get this if we decide to take out from here. Meaty smoky goodness with onions really hits the spot for satisfying that smoke flavor taste cravings! Delicious!!! I like mine with all white rice, but normally it comes with two scoops of white rice and mac/tossed salad. I was told the pork adobo was here good too. So If your in Waikele come check them out and support our local businesses!! Update: My Smoked Meat Plate with all white rice is still delicious as ever and the husband tried the Beef Stew and really enjoyed it as well. Thick and hearty flavorful sauce with plenty of chunky veggies and stew meat. 10/30/2022 My mom enjoyed the Kalua Pig Cabbage Plate. She said it was soft to chew. Chicken long rice had a nice mild flavor with a ginger flavor as well. My husband tried the Roast Pork Plate for the first time and said meat was tender and gravy was flavorful. 05/18/2023 Husband picked up dinner after work. My favorite Smoked meat plate with delicious smoked onions is still #1 and my husband still loves the roast pork plate- still as good as ever. Got mom the mini chicken long rice. She loves it. Mild ginger flavor. Terrific Dinner!! If u havent yet, check them out. U wont be disappointed. 08/19/2023 Aloha everyone! Updating again for Lavernes Lunch Wagon. After work my husband grabbed us dinner- my favorite, smoked meat plate with all white rice At Lavernes Lunch Wagon. This plate literally lasts me 3 meals its so filling and satisfying. Rich smoky flavor just makes your mouth water and you cant wait to dig in! Delicious!! my husband got his regular- the roast pork plate but sadly they made a mistake and gave him all white rice too instead of the Mac Salad. He was not happy but his meal was good and it really helped that he ordered gravy all over this time! People make mistakes, and after all the times we ate here, it was a first. It didnt take away from the quality of their food as well,so make sure you take just a extra minute to check your order before you leave Pictures updated 04/02/2024
