The hype is real! I've been seeing this place on my fyp on social media and I knew I had to try it! First off, don't be alarmed when you pull up to a mechanic shop on the side of the road. Although in a weird spot, I promise the food is worth it! I personally have never had this type of Mexican food before. I'm used to chimichangas, enchiladas, street tacos so I was really out of my comfort zone here. But, I'm so glad it gave it a try because it was delicious! My friends & I came here for lunch and it was pretty busy. The line to order was out the door! I already knew I wanted Da OG Tostada with the infamous blue crab dip and shrimp ceviche. It was soooo refreshing & citrusy! The ceviche and well with the crab dip. The tostada was super crunchy despite all the juices from the dip and ceviche. My friends ordered the Kiawe Smoked Marlin tacos and the Ahi Tostada. They said they were delicious as well. The marlin was smoked and deep fried. The ahi was super fresh and the portions were generous! Lastly, we got chips and salsa and chips and guacamole. The salsa was on the saucier side (not chunky) and had a little bit of a kick to it. The guacamole was so good! You could taste the onions they added in it. The chips though. Omg. They were super crispy and perfect for dipping. Overall, although this was my first time, my friends said everything they've tried has been phenomenal! I'll have to come back to try more! read more

My foodie friend Faith recommended this place to us and we're glad we tried it. We ordered the OG tostada and tostada de atun. Of the two, we surprisingly ended up liking the latter more, as it had more of an Asian flair to it, whereas the OG tostada just tasted like traditional ceviche. Each tostada came with a generous amount of fish, which made the pricing more worth it. Although the tostadas were good, we didn't care for the steak quesadilla, nor the Mexican rice. The rice tasted oddly charred and smoky, which was not at all what we were expecting. It was honestly hard to finish. We tried mentioning it to the staff, but they seemed dismissive. Also, the parking is a hot mess here! There's literally only three small lanes that can fit two to three cars per lane for tandem parking. read more

Da Seafood Cartel - Tostada de atun and OG tostada - Seafood Near Me - Aiea, Hawaii

Food: Mixed taco, ceviche, and guacamole and chips. The texture and flavor of the taco was amazing. Used some of the house sauce on it and it was chef's kiss. Ceviche, pro tip: delicious, but don't let it sit and then put in the fridge for later. Guacamole - delicious. Nice and chunky, and great flavor. Ambience: Converted gas station in Aiea right next to the highway. Parking is a little rough. Service: Slow, but steady. And most importantly friendly. I went at peak time and everyone was chill and friendly. Good vibes. read more

After seeing Da Seafood Cartel all over my social media feed, my family took the plunge -- and honestly? It was a mixed bag worthy of a full report. We went big with the Family Pack (Blue Crab Tobiko Spread, Shrimp Ceviche, and tostadas) and threw in some extra tacos for good measure. The steak tacos were the undisputed MVP of the night -- perfectly grilled and genuinely delicious. The fish tacos were solid, respectable citizens of the taco world and the serving was big enough to make two tacos from one serving. Now, the Blue Crab Tobiko Spread tasted really fishy, so fishy that I had to tap out. Maybe it was an off night, but I couldn't power through it. The Shrimp Ceviche was a crowd-pleaser for the rest of the family, though it wasn't my personal vibe. Here's where things get spicy -- and not in the fun way. We got hit with a $21 convenience fee for ordering online that appeared AFTER we'd already tipped. No heads-up, no warning label, nothing. For a family just trying to enjoy some seafood, that's a gut punch. Had we known, we would have ordered differently. read more

Finally tried this place after everyone I know recommended it to me. Located in Aiea at what seems like a gas station pit stop, is actually the best Mexican food spot on island. I highly recommend ordering the blue crab dip, shrimp ceviche (with tostada shells) and any of their tacos from the steak and shrimp taco Cabo to their fried fish tacos. The seafood is fresh and every bite, from the salsa to the tortilla, is bursting with flavor. Seating and a few parking stalls are available outside. Ordering is pretty quick and convenient. You can order in-person or order takeout online, but I would suggest going in person to check if they have any specials including churros with coconut ice cream. read more

Delicious Mexican seafood place! Located in an old gas station, who would have thought such amazing food would be possible? You order in the restaurant, and then you can sit at the tables and chairs outside. If you're dining there, then they will give you a number and bring the food out to you. The food came out pretty quickly, except for my tostada de atun. But it was totally worth the wait! The fish is fresh, and the flavors of the lime with the rest of the ingredients blend so well together. The chips are made fresh, and the salsa was delicious! The steak quesadilla was very good, and my twin boys devoured it. I got a taste of my husband's crispy fish taco, and again, you can tell the fish is fresh and fried to perfection. Overall, my family and I enjoyed our quick-service meal and will be back again! Happy Eating! read more

The family pack of the ceviche tostada is great for a potluck only $85 and it tastes great! So so good! Been here three times for it already! The food here is amazing. I can't believe I waited so long to eat here. Seafood is excellent. They are always busy & I can't believe see why. This place is a must try! read more

Parking and seating is very limited, so be prepared. The food and service is amazing! This place is a well oiled machine. The demographic of patrons is a mix of young, old, all ethnicities - which is a great sign! Pro tip - the oysters or clams on the half shell take a long time to plate and get to you, so order something to munch on while you wait or you'll be sitting at your table watching everyone else eat. read more

This place gets slammed! Came here with a girlfriend on a Monday night and it was packed. Service is really quick though and there is a decent amount of seating. We got da OG tostada, shrimp taco and steak taco. Everything was fresh and tasty. Couldn't really taste the blue crab tobiko spread on the tostada but next time I go, I'll get the takeout pack to try it on its own. The ceviche was amazing. Prices are what you would expect for seafood and Hawaii. The reggaeton made the atmosphere fun. Parking is tight at the restaurant but we found extra parking at the Dixie Grill, up the ramp. read more

Da Seafood Cartel - Blue crab tobiko spread, 32oz sonoran style ceviche, with homemade tostadas and guacamole - Seafood Near Me - Aiea, Hawaii

A hidden gem of a restuarant. Anytime I'm in Aiea I have to stop and grab "Da OG Tostada". The flavors are incredible and everything tastes so fresh. The tostada is crispy and I love the blue crab tobiko spread aired with the ceviche. I aways order the shrimp and fish mixture for variety. It's very filling and leaves you satisfied. The quality is always consistent and the staff is very friendly. There isn't a whole lot of places to sit when they are busy and it's right off the highway. Be careful not to park in the giant lot near by because I've seen tow trucks circling the area. They have a small parking area directly in front of the shop. read more

Da Seafood Cartel - Da OG Tostada - Seafood Near Me - Aiea, Hawaii

My wife was telling me about this place and we couldn't wait to try their ceviche tostada with blue crab spread! We got to the place and it looked like a gas station. It's unique and feels like something out of San Diego or something. It was a cool vibe. I felt like I was back in Cali with the Mexican music in the background. There are tables outside but they get taken quick so try and grab one when you can. I ordered their chicharron de pescado, marlin quesadilla, and a tub of ceviche with blue crab spread and a pack of tostadas. This all came to about $100. The chicharron pescado was pretty decent. The mahi mahi fish bites were tender but tasted a bit like regular fish sticks from elementary. I also wasn't a big fan of their marlin quesadilla either. The marlin meat was way too smoked and blackened for my taste. It's bold and peppery and didn't pair well with the cheese or tortilla. I wish it wasn't so strong tasting. The meat was pretty dry too. My wife and I, did enjoy the ceviche tostadas though. This was tasty and fresh. The blue crab spread makes this and without it, the whole thing would just be too plain tasting. The food is whatever to me honestly, but I'd come back for the tostadas. I do want to also try their ahi tuna tostada and fish tacos! I think these would be better choices. read more

The shrimp taco is huge. I split it between the 2 tortillas and made 2 tacos and one got stolen by my boys. So yummy so fresh. Chips and salsa! The salsa is a little spicy but so flavorful The tostada is good but I'd probably get another taco over this. The ceviche on top was really good but the best part is the crab underneath and there's only a little (understandable). It's an old gas station with mostly outside seating. Service - you order at the counter and get number and then they bring it out. They brought it out as it was ready so pro is your good is fresh and not sitting under a lamp, but con is if you gotta wait for the last plate. Jokes on that , I'd rather it come out one at a time and be fresh. 10/10 will always love this place! read more

We visit the seafood cartel often. The food is always good. Staff is pretty nice. Our last visit was on Friday, May 22nd and I just wanted to give the cooks recognition. The food was the best we've ever had there. The guacamole was well seasoned and delicious and my tostada was fresh and yummy. Look at the presentation! Whoever was cooking/prepping that day really cared about what they put out and did a fantastic job! read more

Da Seafood Cartel - Tostada de cameron - Seafood Near Me - Aiea, Hawaii

Have been meaning to check out this spot for a minute but just hadn't been able to until today. I stopped by here at 11am on Saturday after a hike. It was "crowded" in that there is a very limited dining area and out door seating area. We managed to snag a table by asking another couple if they were using both of their tables which were put together. Fortunately they weren't. If you're outside, it's also super loud because of the traffic. Probably goes without saying but if you're on a first date or whatever perhaps not the most ideal spot. So we stood in line. Make sure to grab a menu while you're there if you don't have it pulled up on your phone. I ordered fish taco (singular)...i guess they don't do three for whatever like many other places do. That's fine. My date ordered the Tostada de Atun (tuna). And then I ordered a 16oz ceviche to go. I guess I assumed the ceviche would be fish, but i think it's shrimp. Everything was tasty, especially the ceviche. If it was regular fish ceviche, it would have been 20/10. I'm not a huge fan of shrimp and it was still a solid 9/10. The fish taco was fine, if a bit under seasoned. And I think my date enjoyed her tostada. Would totally recommend this place to anyone. read more

04/30/26 First time coming here after reading from fellow yelpers about how good their food is and in agreement that it is hard to find decent Mexican food on this island. I placed a pickup order online and the pickup time was about 15 minutes. This place is easy to find because it's right on Kamehameha Hwy just past Dixie Grill in Aiea. The problem when you get there is the limited parking spaces, it's crazy. You cannot park in the large parking lot where Dixie Grill is and other businesses, or you'll get towed. There are signs everywhere of which businesses these spaces are for. The only designated parking for Da Seafood Cartel is right in front of the restaurant - 2 spaces, parking tandem style or 3 spaces to the right of the door entrance, also tandem style parking. So in actuality, 6 spaces there. When I got there I parked in the spaces next to the door but had to pull in. I was hoping that my order would be ready and it would be a quick in and out before anyone parked behind me. Entered the restaurant and was greeted by a very friendly & personable gal behind the counter. She informed me my order will just be another minute. Before I knew it, she had it all packed up. When I got to my car, another car had already pulled up behind me, oh great! I was hoping that person was not dining there and just doing takeout so I wouldn't have to wait forever. Just under 5 minutes, a young mother with her baby walked toward this car, yes! I was free and able to leave shortly. I ordered several things to try- Steak quesadilla $14.95 - awesome! Good portion of beef melted into the cheese, grilled flour tortilla. The meat was so tender, taste was spot-on, my favorite item there, 5 star quesadilla. Mixed tacos $10.95. You just get one for this price, but it is worth it. It had fish and shrimp, both battered deep fried top with cole slaw, pico de gallo, & chipotle. The chipotle added just a little kick and blended well with the slaw and seafood. This taco was so packed that you couldn't even close it like a taco but somehow I managed. Make sure you have lots of napkins because it is one hot mess. It was so ono, another 5 star item. Da OG tostada $11.95 - I usually don't eat tostadas but this one I wanted to try. I like the fact they packed the ingredients separately for takeout orders so it doesn't get all soggy, appreciate that. After putting it all together and tasted it, it was another awesome tasting item. The blue crab spread on the bottom of the tortilla. This item comes with 2 tortillas and they give such a small container to spread on both. I wish the container was a little bigger. The fish ceviche was delicious and just packed wtih chunks of fish which blended well with the blue crab spread. Yum and this is item is a 5 star. Side guacamole with chips $7.95 Yummy, in-house tortilla chips are the best. They give a small bag but it is stuffed with chips. It had a nice thickness to it and went well with the guacamole. The guacamole had a brownish layer on top when I opened the lid that did not look appetizing but after a good stir, it blended into the rest of the guacamole. It was pretty good . This side I'd rate a 4 star. Overall, decent place to get your taste of authentic Mexican dishes, great customer service, food was ono. The only thing was their crazy parking situation, especially if it is busy. Give them a try and support local! read more

Came to Da Seafood Cartel after seeing an influencer post about it on TikTok. It's conveniently located in an old gas station right off the highway. The parking situation is not ideal with only about 6 tandem stalls dedicated to the restaurant. My friends had to find parking in a lot nearby. The seating is outdoors but covered. I got the fish tacos and chips and guac. The fish tacos were super good! I loved how big the pieces of fish were. The chips were the thick tortilla chips that I really like, and the guac was good but nothing super special. Loved the casual vibes of the place, and the food was delicious! I would definitely come back here to try more of their food. read more

This place sits right by the street next to a tire shop so hopefully you don't miss it. Parking is a bit limited and it does get noisy. The place has some chairs inside and outside but not as much as the crowd it gets. The food is definitely good but I don't know if it's as amazing as others say. The staff is super friendly tho and helpful. I did enjoy the tostada OG. It's definitely pricey but it is seafood so can't expect less. Def try this spot out. read more

This place is absolutely LEGIT. No frills, no gimmicks - just ridiculously good Mexican seafood that punches you in the face with flavor from the first bite. The kind of spot where you know the food is going to be good before you even sit down. The ceviche was insanely fresh and loaded with flavor. The homemade chips had the perfect crunch, and the BSOD ("Black Sauce of Death") absolutely lives up to the name in the best possible way. Spicy, smoky, addictive... I'm still thinking about it. Da OG Tostada was probably my favorite bite of the meal. Blue crab spread + ceviche + avocado = game over. Every layer worked perfectly together and somehow disappeared way too fast. And the steak tacos? Straight fire. Tender arrachera, fresh pico, crunchy cabbage, and packed with flavor without trying too hard. Simple and perfect. This is the kind of place you tell your friends about immediately... while secretly hoping it doesn't get TOO popular. read more

The real blue crab tobiko spread and ceviche are great appetizers with the homemade chips. Taco Cabo has full size shrimp with an excellent complement of grilled arrachera beef if you are a fan of steak and shrimp. The steak quesadilla provides a more than adequate amount of arrachera beef and cheese between the two tortillas. Parking can be tricky but there is a larger parking lot just to the west of the restaurant. The atmosphere with indoor and outdoor seating allows for groups as well as individual dining. Order at the counter for dine-in, to-go, or they offer online ordering through their website. read more

@fortunefoodfinds: "SEAS DA day! A Steak Quesadilla, Fish + Shrimp Taco, n' Da OG Tostada (blue crab tobiko spread, ceviche, n' avocado) from DA SEAFOOD CARTEL in Aiea. Authentic Mexican seafood n' ingredients so fresh, that right there is a definite yes!" SERVICE: friendly n' fully staffed INTERIOR: limited seating; can get filled up quickly EXTERIOR: same as inside, limited seating that is covered. Looks like it could have previously been a gas station. WAIT TIME: came at the right time, was helped out immediately. Line grew as soon as I ordered. Food came out staggered, but fast. Maybe 10 mins for everything. PARKING: few spaces to the side of restaurant n' a free lot to the right when facing OVERALL COMMENTS: the last time I had them was at the Kaka'ako Farmers Market in 2024 so we were due for a visit. The steak quesadilla is really good, has a nice char to the meat, filling is packed with steak n' cheese, easy enough to share, salsa that comes on the side is spicy; a lil' goes a long way. The mixed taco is yuMmmy n' loaded with 2 good size pieces of fried fish n' 2 large fried shrimp. The textures are crispy from the beer batter n' crunchy from the slaw. The chipotle aioli tops it off perfectly by adding in the creaminess. Da OG tostada is seafood freshness on a tortilla chip. The ceviche is very well made, has all the flavors coming through n' underneath that is the blue crab tobiko spread that adds another level of excellence. The avocado is the cherry on top completing the dish. Happy with everything we ordered! read more

I honestly think you're better off dining in rather than ordering takeout. We came here on Father's Day, so I knew it was going to be busy and decided to order takeout instead. Since everything is made to order, I expected the food to come out fresh. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case. While waiting for my order, I watched it sit on the counter for quite a while as an employee continued prepping crab tobiko. During that time, at least five parties who ordered after me received their food first. It seemed like getting completed orders out to customers should have been prioritized. Another concern was seeing a gentleman preparing cucumbers sneeze twice while working. The reactions from the other employees suggested they noticed it as well. The owner appeared to be actively supervising the staff, and I understand that holidays can be hectic, but it was still something that stood out to me. Once we got home, the shrimp ceviche was a big hit. Unfortunately, my tacos were soggy, which I suspect was due to how long they sat on the counter before being handed over. The pricing is reasonable, though, and despite the issues with takeout, I would definitely give them another try and dine in next time. read more

Finally tried Da Seafood Cartel and it did not disappoint. The steak and shrimp taco was super flavorful and the salsa was so good--same goes for the fish tacos. The fish portions were actually a really good size too, which I appreciated. Definitely recommend trying their marlin tobiko dip amd chips! The service was quick and friendly. There's a decent amount of seating, but just a heads up that parking is a little tight with some tandem spots in a small lot. It can get noisy since the place is right next to the road. Overall, really solid spot--I'd definitely come back. read more

Now this is the best Mexican (and seafood) spot I've had on O'ahu. I thought I left a review for this spot but turns out I haven't. I've come here several times already and have brought several out of town guests to eat. We first heard about this from some friends who brought Blue Marlin Dip and their Ceviche to a gathering. It was absolutely delicious. Then we discovered their Fish Tacos which were phenomenal. My family, which is from Ensenada, MX, also boasted about how delicious their fish tacos were. Whenever I have a chance, I'll grab their fish tacos, dip, and ceviche - couple with a "Mexican Coke". The service is good. Nothing to boast about. I would prefer if they came to take our order instead of ordering at the front since when I bring larger parties, it becomes a challenge to get everyone's order right. However, the staff is always friendly. The ambiance is quite a challenge since it's right off Kam Hwy. We have young children and it's hard to relax since we are always double-checking they are safe. Not to mention there are no high-chairs. Parking is also tandem which can be inconvenient. Also, the bathroom could use some upkeep. It smelled like urine. However, still a solid 10/10. read more

Been coming here to satisfy my shrimp ceviche cravings since I moved back home and wow...so good, the best shrimp ceviche, crab dip creation ever!!! Every bite is just that good, I can't explain it. This place is always busy so be prepared! We've been wanting to try other dishes but never got the chance to since there weren't any tables or parking available. The restaurant used to be a gas station or auto shop and I can never unsee it when I come here! Love how quick they move despite the many orders/customers they have. The place feels like a mom and pop vibe, in the backyard or patio...chillin with the fam type of feel. Super chill, bomb food, and good vibes! read more

I wish I could give this place more than five stars my best restaurant experience I've had in ages! The server/cashier was the absolute best she was so sweet, the best service. The food was amazing. The OG tostada was life changing. The ceviche on the tostada was so good but what really made it so good was that blue crab tobiko spread. To top it off gotta shake some of the BSOD sauce that's in a bottle on the table. It was so good I bought some ceviche, blue crab tobiko spread and extra tostada to take home before our tacos came out lol! The tacos were really good and they really fill it up. I just went the other day and I want to go back already! They have a few seats inside and more right outside after you order. read more

Hard to get parking at peak hours. We went during lunch and were able to tandem park. Just have to plan on timing it right or working with the people parked behind you. We ordered their Da OG Tostada with the blue crab spread, the Coctel de Camaron, and the steak quesadilla. We had to kind of wait a few minutes for a table to open up, and our food came out pretty quickly. The food was great and super tasty. This was our first meal off the plane and it did not disappoint! read more

One of many food disappointments on our last visit home. It was a warm day, so we were looking for something chilled and refreshing...Mexi-Papa who seems like an authority on Mexican food out of LA came to Hawaii and RAVED about this spot so I figured we go check them out. Mistah Mean also raved about this spot as well, but then again, EVERYTHING including gas and color treated poke is mean to him!? SMH.... Ordered the mixed seafood cocktail(think it was called Cartel Cocktail or whatever but it was forgettable. Should have been called MANINI seafood cocktail because for $25, I expected more than 4 thin slices of octopus, a few shrimp. The rest of this huge glass was packed mostly with tomatoes. cucumbers and red onion. My pictures don't lie. Taste was pretty lacking too. My fault for thinking Hawaii has solid Mexican food because honestly, that's very far from the truth. Also, trust your tastebuds more than any food content creator regardless of how popular they are. It'll save you time and money. read more

Super good food and service is quick. The only quirk that turns me off is the parking situation, which is in a block fashion where you park and someone may completely block you in and you gotta ask them to move their car so you can get out.

I'm very happy that my husband convinced me to return. First visit for my husband and son. This is my second visit. Free parking in shared lot as Dixie Grill or if it's not crowded, pull up on left side of outdoor seating area. Choose where you'd prefer to sit for either indoor or outdoor seating. First, order then, pay inside the restaurant. There's a 3% charge if paying with card. There's no extra fee if paying via cash. Staff will give a number. Display number on the table for them to bring made to orders. Ambiance is come as you are! We were lucky to be surrounded by a few different, smaller groups speaking Español. Steak Tacos (2 per order): Hubby said his steak tacos were awesome! That's a high compliment from a person who gravitates to Chinese food when he's happy and sad. Hahahahaha! Steaks are made fresh to order, juicy and tender. Steak Quesadillas (4 slices per order): Pieces are tender, juicy, heat hot, surrounded with cheese, and grilled on flour tortilla. Da OG Tostada: Fresh blue crab, ceviche spread, fresh avocado slices. Able to taste the crunch from the tostada. Do not underestimate the size. Filling and flavorful chill after consuming just one. Salsa and Chips x2: Homemade tortilla chips fried to crispy perfection. Fresh and crunchy. Nom! Nom! Nom! Homemade salsa in Español is caliente! Locals will describe it as fiyah! No more oily chips! It's not heat hot or warm. We gladly accept homemade anytime! Kindly inform your Server if you need more chips and salsa to go which is no extra charge. Our Server happily provided extra chips, empty container for chips, another container for salsa, extra container for steak quesadillas at no charge. Horchata: Light, refreshing and complemented each item. Could go for round two! An amazing experience! Muchas gracias to all the employees for communicating, working together as a team, providing excellent customer service. Deliciosa! Delicioso!

MY FAVORITE PLACE! Literally the best ceviche and fish tacos. Ceviche is always fresh and the fish tacos are seasoned perfectly and always crispy on the outside. Blue crab dip is ok by itself, I feel like it could've used a little lime but adding that with your ceviche and hot sauce is amazing. It's been a little busier so seats are sometimes limited but people are always coming and going so wait not long. Staff is super friendly. Love the causal vibes of the place, nothing fancy cuz it looks like they converted an old gas station into the restaurant. There's plenty of parking spaces next to it but you have to be careful not to miss it or you have to take a little loop since it is in the side of the highway. read more

I wanted to like this place but I just can't. Starting off with the environment, the place is chill and overall good vibes. There are just so many mosquitoes and flies... I understand the restaurant can't control that.

Hmmm ok ... people were literally sitting on warped chairs... Now the food... my husband and I ordered a ceviche, two tacos and salsa. Salsa was fine, there was honestly nothing extraordinary about it. The tortilla chips were good. The ceviche when given was like warm.... The shrimp was still grey...
