    Steak,barria and carnitas tacos
    Alfredo Martin

    Had the 3 Ala cart tacos barria .carnitas. Steak tacos. The steak & carnitas tacos is very dry ! The barria was okay not the best .

    Wonderful food!! Big portions, incredible flavor and priced right! The taquitos were nice and crunchy with guacamole, pico de gallo and sour cream on the side. The tacos were super packed and full of flavor!

    If you're really wanting the good stuff..go here, missing authentic Mexican food in Hawaii. This truck has the goods! amazing service, our host Glendia (?) explained she was from Guatemala and taught us some helpful words and made a lot of effort to help us and converse so we got exactly what we wanted. Such a doll, we have to come back again before we fly out

    This is worth the flight

    I stumbled around Wailuku, spotted the food trucks from afar. On my flight, I was told to eat at the trucks instead of restaurants. I found a path beneath the bridge, and first read a menu for an insane ice cream and dessert truck; not what I want. I walked a bit further to discover JJ, read the menu and to my surprise, the jovial man serves Quesabirria! That's all I needed to know. I sat and waited while listening to the top 40 pop music playing at the next truck. A convenient, state of the art plastic and steel bench was comfortable enough to enjoy every cosume soaked bite of my 2 Quesabirria Tacos with a handful of chips. Birria is always the best thing on the menu. Eat more Birria to be Happy. Luckily, I was the only order that minute, got my food as fast as he could prepare it. Well done, JJ. Thank you. Worth the walk.

    I really wanted to love this place, since it's close to home and easy to get to, in a small food truck park with plenty of shade-covered seating...and I definitely love Mexican food, the spicier the better. Hoping I caught them on an off day but I couldn't finish my order (quesabirria plate with rice and beans plus horchata). The tacos themselves were good, with a generous amount of stewed birria that was rich and tender with plenty of melty cheese, and the fried corn tortilla shells had a nice crunch. The filling seemed a bit bland to me, which the accompanying consommé (leftover stewing liquid, for dipping) didn't seem to enhance; some fresh chopped onions, cilantro, and serrano or jalapeño peppers would have been a huge improvement. The rice was good. My biggest issue was the beans, which were so salty that I barely ate any of them, a huge disappointment since I love beans. The horchata was just right, though. I will try them again next time I'm in the area.

    Birria Tacos with beans and rice

    Owner is a great positive gentleman! His Quesa Birria comes with two tacos and so far is my favorite spot for Birria tacos! Don't just take my word for it, try it, you won't regret it.

    Menu and the nicest owner

    JJ Tacos is def worth the visit! Great food, service, and overall vibes! We just wanted some appetizer to munch on before our dinner plans and this was so worth it! Everyone is super nice & steak nachos are bomb!

    This place is absolutely delicious!!! The service was excellent! I got the steak tacos and the steak was so tender, cooked just right! And the taco itself was very flavorful! You're missing out if you haven't come to place yet! authentic Mexican food. I cannot wait to come back!

    The carnitas burrito was spectacular!!! Only warning would be is that they chop up jalapeños so it packs some heat.

    The food was fantastic. The line was well worth the wait. The Birria tacos were the star of the meal. Al pastor was pretty Kick-Ass too.

    chocolate haupia pie ($11) - i dont usually like chocolate…read moreflavored dessert but i have to say this one changed my mind - it is one of my favorite dessert on this island AND i loved it so much this deserves a five star woooo - i really went in not expecting much from it but every bite was delectable from the cream on top to the chocolate and coconut layers - first, as a cream hater who usually scrapes off the cream, i actually ate and enjoyed it; it was light and fluffy not heavy at all - second, the chocolate layer wasnt too sweet and was super velvety smooth; it got enough chocolate content but not too much that it'd be too rich and dense - third, the coconut layer wasn't offensively strong but it actually balanced out the sweetness from the cream and chocolate; it was also a bit gelatinous which enhanced the texture of this dessert - lastly, the tart was crispy and crunchy; not too thick and it also added another layer to the texture, completing the whole dish rating: 5/5 - quick service and half self service; nothing much to note; the pies were already pre made so the server just gave it to us immediately - very casual dining spot; family friendly; ambiance is giving little cabin type restaurants you would find when you're on a road trip IG: @nom.noms.only

    Visited on a Tuesday around 9:55am right before opening, there was a line of about 15-20 guests…read moreahead of me so be prepared to wait. Restaurant opened promptly at 10am, guest slowly made their way in took us about 15min to place our order. Food: Apple Handheld Pie - size was about 3-4" long and 2" wide. Crust was okay somewhat flaky and fairly tender. Bake was a light golden color could have been baked a touch more. Apples were nice and chunky with sweet cinnamon sugar filling, good filling to crust ratio. Pie was covered in a confections sugar glaze which made it a bit sticky to eat, felt unnecessary for a handheld pie, overall okay. Service was quick order at the counter and staff packs your order, we grabbed our to go. Interior had about 15-20 tables l, self serve water and utensil station if you wanted to dine in. Overall seems like a convenient stop midway to Lahaina if you are looking for a sweet treat, wouldn't wait too long or go out of your way to visit but worth a try if you are in the area.

    Best tacos I've had in such a long time and the sweet women that took my order was so nice to take…read morethe time to give me beach directions/recommendations :) Highly recommend the quesabirria tacos!!

    I have seen The Blue Taco Truck mentioned in several YouTube videos covering "places to eat" or 10…read moreBest Maui Food Trucks kind of vids. I have wanted to stop many times but the timing just was not right until today. Located in Oluwalu, about .2 miles past Leodas, Blue Taco sits well back from the road and may be difficult to spot, particularly if you are not familiar with the area. There are several outdoor tables acailable for your dining pleasure. My lunch was quite limited, 1 shrimp taco and 1 mahi-mahi fish taco. Both were served in a lightly fried corn tortilla, with freshly made pico de gallo salsa, excellent. Two tacos were just fine, I can put too much food away but have learned to be a bit more judicious. The shrimp taco was outstanding, great flavor, 5 out of 5 stars. The fried mahi-mahi just did not match my standards. I felt it had been overcooked a bit, as well as the frying oil having that "worn-out" taste, leading to a 3 out of 5 rating. I sampled three of their homemade salsas, all were great. Service was very friendly and quick, 5 of 5 stars here. Prices are good for what you expect on Maui. My overall rating would be 4.5 stars but the Yelp powers have not learned decimals!
