If you're looking for some good food to bring to the beach, this place definitely hit the spot!! Service was fast and prompt, and all boxed up to bring to the beach!! They have good seating inside and out if you want to stay and eat. The burrito was tasty and huge! Perfect to snack on throughout the beach day!!!

Federicos in Hanalei!

A Mexican food restaurant in Hanalei! Wow! Anyway, my wife and our sister-in-law wanted fish tacos so they ordered that here. The food took a long time to prepare as they had to prepare it fresh. The process took longer than I thought but my wife said that it was worth it. The fish was fresh and the 2 tacos that came in the order was filling enough. The restaurant sits along Route 560 in the middle of Hanalei. It's popular because most of the other restaurants close too early to accommodate the tourists who come around after laying on the beach all day. Overall, it's a good place to have a good meal!

The wait is horrendous but they have great happy music to entertain the hungry crowd. I had the Seafood Flautas plus a large soda, total was under $20.00 dollars. They served me cold rice and very cold beans, the flauta was ok nothing extraordinary. The wait is long so by the time you get your food 1/2 of your drink is gone and they do charge for a refill. I'm not saying the food was terrible, but it was definitely not worth 38 minutes for lunch!

Mushroom tofu tacos with rice and beans
Tre R.

Filling and fairly fast. The veggie options lacked the same good flavor as meat options. We supplemented with our own hot sauce.

Cheese Quesadilla
Peaches H.

We got some tacos and was able to sit at the picnic tables outside and people watch! Such a relaxing and great experience. The tacos were good and full of toppings. The fish is cut on and grilled. We also had a quesadilla that was tasty and we would visit again. Thanks for the experience Hanalei! Order takers were friendly. More of a take and go place with scattered picnic tables.

Fish burrito

Stopped by for lunch. The burrito was good but leaked too much. Decent selection of options.

Shrimp flautas. Fire!

We came here for dinner because of the reviews. I was sadly disappointed. I tried both of there fish tacos. They were over cooked and dry.

Tiki Iniki was a fun, flavorful stop with exactly the kind of island/tiki atmosphere we were hoping…read morefor. I ordered the Teriyaki Burger with fries and a Lava Flow, and both really hit the spot. The burger had a great sweet-and-savory balance from the teriyaki glaze, pineapple, slaw, and shoyu mayo. It was messy in the best way, with plenty of flavor, and the fries were a solid side. The Lava Flow was also a highlight: tropical, creamy, fruity, and very photogenic. It felt like the perfect vacation drink. Overall, Tiki Iniki is a good pick if you want a casual meal, fun drinks, and a lively tiki-bar vibe. I'd definitely recommend stopping in for a Lava Flow and a burger.

It's such a shame, because my wife and I love trying tiki bars whenever we go to a new place, but…read moreTiki Iniki just feels like no one cares. At all. Service is slow. Slooooowwwww. Slow. The worst mai tai I have ever had. My god. Ordered the "top shelf" Mai tai, and it was absolutely brutal. First, it wasn't shaken OR stirred. What does this mean? It was served one ingredient on top of the next, room temperature, and tasted like a hot mess. We actually felt sick from it. The amount of syrup this bartender used was crazy. She's either not tasting her drinks, or has just fried her taste buds doing god knows what over the years. Please, for your customer's sake, train the bartenders.

This little local restaurant was a little hidden gem located in the Hannalei shopping center old…read moreHanalei school. It's been here for a while. You can tell by the decor for the building. You can sit inside or out and they have the doors open so the wind was going through, which of course made me cold. But they have gluten-free buns. So I was able to get a Burger and side salad because the fries were preseasoned and therefore not gluten-free which seems to be the theme on this island. Smh. The young lady who took our order was very friendly and gluten-free herself so she knew exactly what I was going through and has a list of items that can be gluten-free. I ordered Fresh Island Fish Sandwich at $26.95 Grilled fresh garlic buttered fish served with a lemon caper dill mayonnaise and "the works" on a toasted gluten-free bun. It was huge! Juicy and very flavorful. The House salad was also huge and the house thousand Island dressing that came with it was delicious. My husband ordered Moe's Ultimate Burger at $23.95 with Guacamole, bacon and pepper jack cheese with "the works" and his came with the seasoned fries. It was a huge burger as well and very flavorful. He enjoyed it. We ordered the virgin piña colada's at $7.75ea. They were in a 10-120z or regular size glass and tasted pretty good coming in at a cool third place. There's a bar inside that you can sit with TVs to watch surfing and or games. The decor is paintings from local artist from what I gather that you can also purchase. We'll definitely visit here again.

They always have great fresh fish. Today we had marlin and chips and it was amazing as usual…read more The Cole slaw recipe was different though. Miss the old one.
