    Low key, decent, neighborhood Mexican eats with the nicest people working there. It's quick and satisfying. Lots of vegetarian options like mushroom quesadilla, veggie burrito, bean and cheese burrito, cheese enchilada for a reasonable price. I got the cheese enchilada. Cheese was nicely melted. Good amount of sauce. Rice was fluffy. Beans seasoned well. The salsas were surprisingly fresh, seasoned well, good amount of cilantro and hit the spot! The inside only has counter seating, about 8? spots I think, four chairs on each side. The outside looks a bit rough with bars on the windows and the building is a bit aged but the inside is clean and old school comforting. There is limited parking in a shared tiny lot right before the building, on the corner of the block. I actually missed it and had to turn around.

    Coming to Maui from Cali I was curious to see how the Mexican food was considering we have a taco truck on every corner. I was not disappointed. I ordered a carnitas burrito and it was better than back home. No skimping on the meat here! Only thing I would change is asking for no lettuce on my burrito. Service was nice and food was fast. Inside is small but gets the job done. The chicken nachos were also bomb I might add.

    I used come here a lot about 20+ years ago, when I heard the original owners sold it I went back once and wasn't too impressed and never went back. My arrogance/ignorance was my mistake. Boy I wish I could reverse the clock on this one. This place was awesome last night. I ordered the special birria taco combo and ala carte chicken taco & beef taco. All was so ono. Tender and flavorful. My wife had Al Pastor chimichanga. This was the best of the bunch. Daughter had chicken enchilada combo. Idk how that tasted since she ate it all and didn't get to try it. Lol. Must've been good tho. Service friendly, but took awhile to get food. But it was Cinco de Mayo and they were upfront about wait, so no complaints there. Definitely coming back.

    Great fast service. Food excellent!!! Had the tostadas, shrimp burrito and chicken enchiladas. Simple fast food.

    Fiesta Time is the hidden GEM we all crave. We have been coming here for a long time. Whenever we happen to be in the area we stop by. The food is made by a woman that looks like one of my Tia"s (aunts). When you order food it is NOT served quickly which is sometimes a good sign that the food is fresh. I had the pork chili Verde (green) burrito ( wet) which means enchilada sauce spread on top like a giant enchilada mmm. All I know is I heard the blender, blending and the green sauce was fresh and tasted amazing!! The beans were beans, the rice was fluffy and well cooked with great taste. The chips in all fairness were stale for the first time I've been there. I will shrug it off as a one time thing. My son and wife had a carne asada burrito (steak) dry. They loved that the ingredients were spread evenly unlike fake Mexican food places like Taco Bell that serves GOBS in different places overpowering the flavor every two bites too much salsa in the first bite then too much sour cream in the next, then too much cheese 2 bites after that ..sigh ( but I digress) the food is made with care. My other son had tacos and enjoyed them . The salsa is home made and wonderfully flavored. And not spicy that my wife even enjoyed it and for a local girl that's saying a lot. The parking is decent as there is reserved parking on the side just for the restaurant. The seating is limited but we rarely eat there anyway. We brought it home for movie night. So if your in the area of downtown Wailuku give it a shot I promise you will enjoy the love and care put into the meal.

    I tend to avoid this spot because I know how busy it can get and limited parking but I always forget that aside from the 3 stalls in front, there are actually 4 marked stalls in a private lot right next door. They're located on a corner of a busy street so it can easily get congested but calling in your order ahead is easy. All the workers are really nice. We ordered ahead and the Aunty recommended if you plan to pay separate, to request ahead as they cannot accommodate separating your bill after they print the ticket and you come in to pay. Happy to report they got an upgrade inside with some air conditioning for a more comfortable experience. They also have some chairs inside to eat and a picnic table outside in the shade if you choose. Stoked they haven't jacked up their prices with all the inflation going around. They maintained their affordable prices and delicious food. Stop in for some Mexican grinds, the only one in Wailuku!

    We lived in Arizona for over 20 years, so we know good Mexican food and this is our NEW FAVORITE!! The salsa is a must-have! People come here and just buy the salsa! The chicken taquitos were so yummy and the mushroom quesadilla was to die for! OMG! This place is bomb!

    Outside

    Came here right after hiking Haleakala for 3 days. I found good reviews here and decided to try it. Upon arriving and noticing it was a small hole in the wall, my expectations were heightened and I had a feeling it was gonna be great! And I was not disappointed! The food was awesome! Super moist and tasty traditional Mexican food. I been craving this since Los Angeles. Mexican food on Oahu is pretty bad and I am sooo glad to have come here. Service was great , and food was exceptional! I'll be thinking of this restaurant for years to come- thank you and aloha

When I initially called about the big black hair in my food it was dark and dinner time I just fed my kids the food for dinner. They told me they would give me a full refund when I called the night before but as of today because I didn't bring the food back immediately when I got there they chose to treat me like Im an asshole for wanting my money back and said they'll give me 4.50 cuz it was in the rice. I threw the food out after I took the picture and made my own food. Im the sole parent of two small children so I communicated that I couldn't make it back that night. Not I wouldn't, I couldn't because bedtime routine and school is important. They never communicated that I will not be refunded the same if I didn't come back immediately. There's no way they are taking proper health precautions if there was a hair deep in the rice and if they are then it was intentionally put in my food. I wasn't rude or upset to begin with. They made me wait outside for like ten minutes while the front desk girl went to talk to someone and saw the bartender laughing about it and everyone looking at me and talking. You could have made a happy customer and just taken accountability or offer me a drink or a voucher or something but you chose to be disrespectful and offer me 4.50 so yeah I got upset and asked to speak to the manager cuz that's wrong and she lied and said they weren't in after just telling me they were. As the sole parent i dont get to make a lot of money on my own to eat out and that was supposed to be a special thing for us, and your lack of hospitality was a horrible experience for me and I didn't get to eat the food I bought. It's the principle. I've worked in customer service for years and what you did wasn't right. Your manager refused to speak to me and made the front desk girl lie to avoid the issue and made her handle it. I mentioned the health department because how would a hair get in there if you take all proper health precautions? And I said how do I know you are all washing your hands, wearing gloves, and hairnets when there's a hair in the food? Front desk girl then said the manager can hear everything from the camera yet still refused to handle it themselves so no you don't take care of your employees or stand behind them, you let her deal with the angry customer alone while you watched from your desk. Valid crash out on my part.

Left me talking there while she was picking up the phone instead of putting them on hold, took forever to take that order and then my order on top of that she took it wrong and I was really angry because I paid $20 for a lousy tiny plate with rice and beans full of rice and beans it was supposed to come with two Chile rellenos. I sat down and waited, she calls my order 3 times. I mean I don't have wings to fly, I was getting up to get it, apparently it was not fast enough for her. I had to say coming, that was ridiculous so I bring the plate to my table and start eating, and I only had gotten one chiller relleno instead of 2, mind you It was super tiny. They use Anaheim peppers, cheating the customers because chiles rellenos are made with poblano peppers . John, the owner has gone crazy and doesn't know what else to do to cut corners, but this has gotten absolutely ridiculous. I have friends that have been going there, and myself included for decades, but we are not gonna patronize this Place any longer ever again. Amigos still gives free salsa, they are better as far as portions. The only thing I hate is that they tack on a 20% tip. Stay away from this place do not fall for the trap. You will not get good food anymore Here again. Their portions are very tiny ridiculously small! And the cook had the nerve to lie that she gave me two Chiles rellenos. I showed my plate to the woman that was filling in and then she took the cook's side, even though the cook only spoke Spanish! Unreal I should report this business. Obviously they have cameras, the owner can see how they're cheating customers out of their food that we pay too much to get crumbs and terrible service and quality, bland food Some of us patrons are sick of his behavior!

Then on the side is a lime, pickled carrots, jalapeño, radish, and I chose spicy salsa. The bowl is huge,, and i stuffed my face and finished every bite haha; it goes to say hot great it was. The rice and beans are a perfect layer of goodness, the crunch from the fresh veggies, that smoky and spicy (light) of the chorizo, richness of that avacado, and finished off with that nice creamy aioli. Then I hit it with the kick or the lime and extra spice of the salsa. I'm in heaven. Oh then add side tart, tangy, and crunchy bites of the pickled veg. Waaaaawhoooo was my tummy happy. I'd like to say, I want to come back and all their other options such as their soft and questo tacos or biria. However as I am not in Maui much, probably going back for my home run. Hopefully next time someone else is with me so I can try their choices haha. The staff were friendly and food came out in good time. They are located on the back side of the food truck area, so don't pass them by if you just jump into the main area. Definitely recommend them for all who havent.
