Parking is also at Napa after hours (they open at 5pm for dinner) A very small cool unassuming hole in the wall with alot of mexican and old time charm housed in an old building with 6 (4 person) tables and light airconditioning. As you enter the inhose bathroom is right in back of entrance (streetside) I believe they also have a take out window fronting Napa parking lot. The staff was friendly and cool and the food didnt take too long (we were the first ones there) The menu was typical mexican food fare tacos enchiladas burritos ..oh and it was taco night $4 tacos (fair size not bad) Food was okay. Not a bad place to try while in Wahiawa

But what I didn't know was that they don't have a happy hour...they have a HAPPY DAY!!!!! 10-6 PM! So even though we were not really hungry cause we just had lunch, we ordered some crispy tacos...which are four minis. The day was getting happier and happier! The bartender was great! Friendly and attentive! And it still has the same great vibe to just relax and enjoy! Gracias and Mahalo El Ranchero!

Flavor was solid, portion was generous, and the food itself is the main reason I keep coming back. The ambiance is chill and local. Most of the afternoon crowd seemed to know each other, which gives the place a comfortable neighborhood feel. That said, the inside is a little dingy and could probably use a renovation. The issue on this visit was the service. When we got there, it was pretty empty, maybe 4 or 5 people sitting at the bar. The guy working behind the bar seated us, but then never brought menus, never brought water, and never came back to take our order. When my friend tried waving him down, he ignored us. Eventually another employee came in, and the bartender just told him, "Go take his order," without acknowledging us at all. I don't know if he was only working the bar that day, but he could have at least brought water, menus, or simply said someone would be right with us. Instead, the whole interaction came across as dismissive and unnecessary. Food was very good as always, but service matters too. Based on this visit, I'd call it 3 stars overall.

Salsa the tiniest thing ever seems like the equivalent of a taco bell packet. The side guacamole is even more shocking for the price. El palenque gave us 8x the amount for similar cost and was ono. Seems to be ala carte( confusing simple looking menu very pricey birria( tiny 3 pc) rice, and beans(Ala cart) runs around geeze over $30 i've had pretty good complete birria meals for less and 3x the amount on an actual dish, just need to travel further. Birra burrito probably more worth for quantity but still alacarte style. Chicken suizas was on the salty side both times. My kid did like the expensive quesadilla. To bad seem all is Ala carte . Would give more business great location, but trying to ala carte for a family to expensive. We just go down where you can get complete meals for similar cost. After all, every establishment experiences a hit or mistake.But at least we won't be missing all our money.

Jorge's Mexican Restaurant was such a great find! It has that authentic local vibe, making it feel…read morelike the kind of place the locals actually go. We stopped in for happy hour on our first visit, and it did not disappoint. As Southern California residents, we're a little picky about our Mexican food, but the chips and salsa were excellent. We enjoyed it so much that we made a second trip to the North Shore and stoped in again for lunch. The experience was just as good the second time around. The grilled fish tacos were good, the service was friendly, and those chips and salsa were just as delicious as we remembered. If you're looking for a laid-back, local spot with great Mexican food on the North Shore, Jorge's is definitely worth a visit!

I was not at all impressed. The server was friendly but seemed to be distracted and fidgety. The decor was confusing - this is a Mexican restaurant but also has surfer vibes? Now for the food. My boyfriend was not impressed as the carnitas did not have any flavor. We also ordered the birria tacos which wasn't too bad. Needless to say, there are probably better Mexican places to try on the North Shore.

They started putting their chairs up on the tables at around 7:40pm. They close at 8:00 but once they started doing that, we got the hint and left.

I happened to be in the Waipio area, a rarity for me, and decided to see what might be worth taking back home. I had never heard of Acapulco but was in the mood for Mexican grinds and when yelpers Fran and Gail reviews popped up, I knew this was one to try. They have indoor and outdoor dining options. Both spaces are very clean. I ordered two plates to go. Both plates came with rice and beans which were delicious. The gave a nice quantity of food. My meal of choice was the combo chili relleno and a beef enchilada with the red sauce. Both were delicious and did not get drowned out by the sauce and cheese. Excellent balance and taste. With gas prices being what they are, coming here is only going to happen when I'm in the area. But the delicious taste will make me think hard for any excuse to get to Acapulco restaurant when I'm in the mood for Mexican grub.

Los Comales is a food kiosk located outside the food court in Schofield Barracks…read more When I stopped by there was one gentleman running the booth. We ordered 2 burritos and a tamale. One burrito was chicken with green sauce. The burrito itself is about a foot long. Filled with your choice of protein (steak or chicken), rice, beans, cheese, sour cream, guacamole, and choice of red/green sauce. The red sauce had a little kick and a nice flavor. The green sauce didn't have much flavor. The other burrito was steak with red sauce, this was the better of the 2 according to hubby and son. I had a pork tamale. It was decent. There was a good amount of meat but not enough in comparison to the tamale. All in all good food, decent price and I would return.

I ordered a veggie burrito plate and hubs ordered a chicken quesadilla. Our order was quickly ready, that's great! The flavor, sigh... it was meh; I expected much more in the way of flavor. (It was bland) The refried beans had cheese (after I asked for no cheese on anything, so I didn't eat those) The size department for the quesadilla was definitely not worth the price. Unfortunately they forgot the chicken on it so a double whammy there. I was going to grab a pic but he was finished with that tiny thing before I could take one! LoL! I have this place a try and this is a one and done for me, though.
