Authentic and delicious. I was out running errands, so stopped at Linda's Kitchen to pick up some…read morelunch. For two people, I got two quesabirria tacos and two mahi tacos. Both were unique and outstanding. The quesabirria tacos have a beef filling and the taco comes with a broth for dipping. There is so much flavor in them! The mahi tacos have large pieces of fish and lots of toppings. The fish was so fresh. Linda knows what she is doing! Two tacos each was also plenty of food for us. I did not eat the food there, but the little food truck park where Linda's is located has lots of shaded tables. There are fly fans if you need them and spray bottles to clean a table, if needed. Everything felt very neat and clean to me and the trucks have planters in front of them to green things up. Well worth the stop to have a bite or take something away.

This Mexican food truck isn't just serving up tacos and burritos -- it's sharing a piece of their…read morefamily history. Inspired by Grandma Linda's cherished recipes, the owners first opened up shop in Lahaina. Following the fires, they relocated centrally and recently just found a new home at the Tambayan Corner food truck lot in Kahului. They serve all the typical Mexican greatest hits of tacos, burritos, quesadillas, and a small lineup of bebidas (drinks). On warm days, I've enjoyed their ube horchata which is one of their more unique offerings. It's just the right balance of creamy sweetness to cool you down. I've also had their quesabirria tacos, which are tasty and satisfying. I just wished the consommé had a bit more depth of flavor -- the kind where you know the meat has been stewing for hours and hours. Overall, whether you're in the mood for a quick taco fix or a refreshing drink, Linda's Kitchen is a good spot when the craving for Mexican food hits.

The positives first: the service was genuinely friendly, and the food truck itself, along with the…read morelanai....was very clean, welcoming, and well maintained. It's clear pride is taken in the setup and customer experience. Unfortunately, the food missed the mark on this visit. My burrito was less than five minutes old, but when I unwrapped it, it was noticeably cold. That immediately affected the overall experience. The carne asada had a greasy mouthfeel, which may have been amplified by the temperature, and the flavors didn't really come through after that. This may be a case of timing or takeout not translating well. I'd be open to giving it another try and eating onsite to see if the experience improves, because the atmosphere and service suggest it has potential

Last day in Maui and I was seriously craving Mexican food. I'd had a fish taco with mango salsa…read morethat was yummy while in Kihei. However, my husband discovered this jewel while gassing up at Costco. He saw someone eating an amazing burrito and we had time. We shared chips and green salsa. Fantastic green salsa with onions, mild (medium, says the husband). He order carne asada burrito. The flour tortilla was fresh, pliable and "moist". His words. Big Hunks of delicious meat. I had a fish taco and a pollo asado taco combo with rice and black beans. They were both on a soft corn tortilla, with lettuce, jalapeño, onions and cilantro. Amazing spice on the pollo! The fish was perfectly grilled with a mild spice that didn't overwhelm the fish. I had to stop myself from licking the plate and I think I barely breathed between bites as I inhaled the meal. I definitely recommend Las Piñatas of Maui if you are looking for authentic Mexican food in Maui. Best Mexican since we moved out of California in 2022. I only wish we had someplace like this in Arizona.

Probably the best tasting Mexican food on the island. However…read more...... 1. The cashier was stuffing her face, feeding her kid, talking on the phone while wearing the same gloves she is serving food with. Additionally, she kept going back into the kitchen, and filling up her food container 2. No free water, you want water, over $3 per bottle. 3. Want salsa for your food? Gotta pay for it. 4. Want chips? Gotta pay for it. Overpriced and no service.

I was on my way to the QKC when I realized it was Happy Hour so I decided to treat myself here…read more Unfortunately the waiter said no alcohol today. I love their margaritas and I've tried a Guava one previously. I ended up treating myself to a refreshing Horchata (Rice Milk drink with Cinnamon) and 2 Happy Hour Tacos. They have Hard or Soft and Ground Beef or Chicken option and guess what...they're $3.50/each! Who can beat that price on Maui?! On top of that, it wasn't busy so I got my food fast and the waiter was friendly and accommodating. I asked for some chips and salsa. The red salsa was mild and green salsa was on the mild/medium side. A few chips underneath were stale unfortunately but it was ok, overall, I'd be back for the Happy Hour Specials! They also had Birria Tacos for $5.50 as well. Happy Hour is between 3-6 pm, a 3 hour window for those getting off work a tad later so you can treat yourself and it won't cost an arm and a leg.

So I went with my other half to get a quick bite at Fernando's (keep in mind I love Mexican & been…read moregoing here since forever). immediately I sensed there was no AC. I thought I'd be okay but I was dying, drenched in sweat before the drinks even came. I ignored it. I tried not to grumble. We ordered then waited. Wait time was great super fast service, however when the food was being walked to our table, it came with a swarm of FLIES! me and my other half started swatting around us so that the flies wouldn't get on our food! We had to make sure that the flies wouldn't fly into our mouth as we were taking bites of our food. It was really unpleasant, We were really annoyed and at disgust of the place but we were already this far in and didn't want to make a scene. While eating my sour cream and guacamole something in it was just sour and tasted yuck. I'm just really disappointed. Fernando's is run down, the ceiling was falling, they lost their license to serve alcohol & have one waitress who does everything... I suggest they should just throw in the towel because what happened today I will not go back there.

The ingredients are always fresh, the flavors are amazing, and every meal leaves me wanting to come back for more. I've been here three times in the last week and a half, and I'm already planning another visit tomorrow. That's how good it is. Whether you're craving tacos, quesabirria, or their sides and salsas, you really can't go wrong. Consistently delicious food, generous portions, and a place I find myself recommending to everyone. If you're looking for some of the best tacos on the island, this is it.

Been here dozens of times and never disappointed. We arrived after 2:30 and they were still busy…read more The friendly cashier said my order would be ready in 20 minutes. No worries; it's worth waiting for. She gave me a pager, and we watched the chickens while we waited for our 4 soft birria tacos. As always, it was worth the wait. The burria was plentiful, with cilantro and diced onion, on the tacos. The flavor was excellent, especially with their tomatillo salsa and a squeeze of fresh lime. Glad to see the sliced radish, the pickled jalapeño and (oh, man) the marinated carrot slices! As if that isn't good enough, we also got a burria burrito to go. Now, we have something to feast on tomorrow. Mucho Bueno!

I was searching last night on Oahu where my lunch was going to be today on Maui Decided to give…read moreTacos Y Mariscos a go.........BOYYyYyYy they did NOT disappoint. Let's start by saying, they pulled into the pole position of my most delectable Mexican food bite and place in Hawaii (albeit only had on Oahu and Maii, lol). My order: Chorizo Burrito Bowl and maaayynnn Thai thing was loaded. Starts with a layer of rice, beans, chorizo, green and red cabbage, pico de gallo, avacado, topped with chipotle aioli. 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.

OMG! The dinner was absolutely wonderful! We ordered the Wagyu beef in Chow Fun noodles, mushroom…read morerisotto, and street corn. The Wagyu beef was the most tender , melt in your mouth, tender. Risotto was perfect and creamy. The corn was to die for. They must have put an entire cube of butter in that corn. So good!

My coworkers and I went for their Happy Hour. They got refreshing Margaritas and I got myself the Paia Bay which had rum, coconut cream, pineapple and POG (Passion Orange and Guava). If you like fruity and creamy cocktails like me, this is a great choice! I think it was dusted with some Nutmeg which gave it a nice kick of spice while sipping. We ordered the Spicy Tuna Poke Nachos as our starter. It had crispy won ton chips, spicy ahi, and cucumbers mixed with the spicy sriracha aioli and furikake on top. We got 2 Fish and Chips and my coworker shared a sliver of her Baja Shrimp Tacos with me (which I wasn't able to take a photo of lol). The Fish and Chips had a nice crispy beer batter with Seasoned Fries and 3 sauces, ketchup for the fries, tartar sauce with yummy dill and the most delicious guava vinegar! I am a sauce lover so I loved the trio! The Baja Shrimp Tacos were nice and crispy with a pico de gallo on the side and a salsa verde butter. I love the Harborside setting and the seaside theme inside with a nice bar and the open concept is very inviting and refreshing! If we had more time, I would've loved to try their dessert menu. Guess it just means I'll have to come back soon! Happy Hour is 3-5 pm and if you're Kama'aina (Resident) you can enjoy a 25% discount this month of May. This is a nice spot to take friends and Ohana!

(5/5) Stumbled…read moreacross Ono Taco Truck and immediately knew it was about to be legit. You can just feel it--and yes, confirmed: actual Mexican folks running the place, so you already know the food isn't playing around. Everything was insanely tasty and felt super authentic. Like the kind of tacos that make you pause mid-bite and rethink every other taco you've had before. Bonus points for the sauce bar--lowkey my favorite part. Nothing like standing there debating life decisions while trying every salsa like you're on a flavor quest. Easy 5 stars. I'd come back again and again... and probably embarrass myself at the sauce bar every single time. Service took a little while because there's only one guy cooking but it was well worth the wait.

The car rental company receptionist recommended this area of food trucks to check out since it was close by. It was about a 15 minute drive to the food trucks. Our friends said they've tried Ono Tacos before in Lahaina. They said that the tacos they had were good! I was in the mood for tacos so I ordered one Al Pastor "Pork" taco and the Shredded Beef Birria tacos. They were both very tasty and I would say "on par" with tacos I've had on the mainland! I would go back again the next time I'm in Maui.
