Now this made me miss home! Everything from the tacos to the horchata, it was amazing. They had…read moremany tacos to choose from starting from pollo ( chicken ), carne asada ( steak ), and my favorite birria ( marinated shredded beef w/ consome ). UBE HORCHATA! growing up in Las Vegas and being in a heavily Hispanic community. Trying that beverage made my taste buds dance. Highly recommend. Staff treated myself and my other half as if we were regulars and took the time to explain each entree if we had any questions! Now don't let the outside fool you, soon as you walk in and see the small decorations they have in the kitchen. It feels like home. One thing I would suggest to their menu is that their elote, I wish for it to be on the cob and have that cheesy flavor to it. It was different but delicious. My opinion probably the best yet affordable taco spot in Oahu!

My friend and I came to Pearlridge's village market which happens every Saturday night. Kealoha…read moreseafood is a truck towards the entry of the market. A lot of their dishes are deep fried, ranging from deep fried ahi to cheese burgers, but they have a focus on seafood (obviously by their name). We got the seared ahi plate with rice and shoyu ahi poke. This was INSANELY good. The ahi was more fried than seared, as there was a battered crust. The ahi was done to a medium, meaning that there were still a bit of raw ahi peaking through, which I LOVED and enjoyed a lot. The sauces (unagi and spicy mayo) drizzled on top was perfect and made every bite super flavorful. The shoyu ahu poke as a side was also a perfect pairing, it was soft and tasted fresh. Both my friend and I DEVORED this and enjoyed this a LOT. I would really recommend this specific item, but I'm sure their other dishes would be good too ( can't go wrong with fried).

I got the $10 mini plate, which includes two choices. I picked the lechon and pancit, and let me tell you... it was hands down the best lechon and pancit I've ever had. The lechon was unbelievably juicy and tender, and the pork skin was out-of-this-world crispy. The pancit was full of flavor and perfectly cooked. I shared it with my toddler and it was plenty for both of us. But to be honest, I wish I got the regular full size plate so I could stuff myself more and have leftovers for later... it was that good!! I parked in the Coca Cola parking lot nearby. There's no seating, but honestly, I would've happily eaten this food standing up in the rain. That's how good it was. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. YOU GOTTA TRY THIS PLACE!!!!

Luckily, I was able to get the most similar drinks to them. First off, presentation was perfection n' their aesthetic is so cute. The Salted Maple Coffee had a nice hint of salty n' sweet n' went very well with the coffee. I really liked the fresh strawberry puree in the Strawberry Matcha. Was hoping for more of a matcha-y taste throughout the drink. I believe they mentioned in an IG story that they will be sourcing a new matcha soon, so I am eager to see if that will enhance their matcha drinks to be the best it can be. Will have to try it out once it becomes available!

Stopped by here back in July to pick up dinner. This place has been here as long as I can…read moreremember. Located just outside the entrance to the Pearl Harbor commissary. One can't miss this vendor because you can just smell the BBQ aromas from the parking lot - just follow that smell. There is a huge parking lot, which on weekends can get quite full. This business is also open to the public. We ate here years ago because that BBQ aroma was what lured us. But when we ordered then, although it smelled ono, the taste of the BBQ did not meet up to the expectation of good BBQ. The flavors just weren't there - just tasted so-so. We added this to the list of not worth a repeat places to eat. Flash forward several years later, decided to try them again. Got there late afternoon before 4:30PM. They closed at 5pm. I was greeted by a friendly man - maybe the owner?!? He informed me of the items that were out of stock - BBQ beef & the mix plate would be no beef but just chicken & pork. I wanted to get a BBQ pork stick but it was also not available. I ordered a chicken plate & a pork plate. The plates came with white rice & a choice of mac or green salad, & a drink - either bottled water or can soda. hubby got the chicken plate with double mac & I had the pork plate with white rice & salad. I thought the plates were very reasonably priced which includes a drink. Not too many places do that. Only $11 for the pork plate & $12.25 for the chicken plate. Pork plate - toss salad was good - crisp lettuce with shredded carrots, no brown lettuce. Rice was your typical white, sticky kind. Pork was thinly sliced. a good portion about 8 oz. I wanted to like the pork but it was burnt, dry, & tough. The flavor of the BBQ was good but lacked flavor, like it needed more salt. The pork tasted like it sat in the bottom of the warming pan for hrs & because it was close to pau hana time, I probably got just that. Chicken plate - mac salad - wasn't too bad but his chicken was also burnt. dry, & tough. He ended up only eating half of it & had to toss the rest out. Sad to say, no improvement from the last visit. They still got a 2-star rating because I still got friendly & quick service & the price point was good to include a drink with your plate. It will probably be awhile before I return & maybe next time go earlier in the day for fresher food, to see if it makes a difference vs before closing & getting the scraps.
