Been here dozens of times and never disappointed. We arrived after 2:30 and they were still busy. 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! read more

I was searching last night on Oahu where my lunch was going to be today on Maui Decided to give Tacos 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. read more

This is such a great food truck! Staff is always friendly and helpful. Takes about 10-15 minutes to get your food because they make it when you order. I love their delicous tender birra-usualy get a few tacos and one of their huge burritos to go(it heats up very well in the microwave or toaster oven for my lunch the next day) nice sized parking lot with 1 small table with umbrella if you want to eat there. I prefer to take it home or to the beach. read more

My first taste of Hawaii and I was not disappointed!!! We ordered the island soft tacos, 2 chorizo & 2 birria. They came with sides of sauce, which only elevated the flavors. The portion size was perfect. 2/3 tacos is a solid meal, but we did 1 each and tried food from the other trucks in the area! There are a few picnic benches in the area, so you can stay and enjoy the meal, surrounded by wild chicken :) The only watchout... you'll be sitting unbothered till you bring your food around. The flies will pounce as soon as they get a waft. It's a bit annoying, so maybe come prepared with some bug spray! read more

Wasn't expecting to get Mexican food in Maui and I needed up finding the Best Birria tacos I've ever had. Quesabirria tacos are great and the consome tops it off perfectly. Not a lot of places to sit, but I'd eat these off of the ground if I had to. The owners are really friendly and the food comes out quick. A great stop right when you land at the airport at the food round up by costco. read more

These were probably some of the best tacos I've tasted in Hawaii. Although prices are a bit high, they're almost comparable to other Mexican restaurants and these tacos were so worth it! I ordered a carne asada, adobada, and lengua taco - lengua is $1 more than the others. Food came out fast and they offer you a choice of mild or spicy salsa. The tacos came piled with a good portion of meat and came with radishes and pickled carrots and jalepenos. I thought the adobada and lengua really stood out - the adobada had a nice flavor and lengua was so soft and tender! Will be back next time I'm on Maui! read more

Ground beef burritos are my go-to, but if they're not available, quesadillas are second. LOCATION: The food truck is located at the corner of Haleakala & Keolani, in between Costco & Courtyard Marriott, along with other trucks. Some covered seating is available. MENU: Tacos, burritos, quesadillas, mulitas & tortas. FOOD: Quesadilla Con Carne - $14.00 I chose "birria" as my protein which was sliced pork. The meat was tender and flavorful, filled with a good amount of cheese. The menu stated it comes with sour cream & pico but only salsa accompanied. SERVICE: Counter service was friendly. Food order was quick and came out hot, around 5 minutes. OVERALL: Good quesadillas but go for their Quesatacos (crunchy tacos) instead. read more

This food truck is located on the other side of the parking lot from the majority of the trucks. We almost missed it after having lunch. As we did a taco tour back home, we wanted to try the tacos. Maybe it is because we had just eaten, but the tacos would not be "five stars" for me. The fish tacos were good, but the birria was underwhelming. It was good to try the food trucks, but Maui has a lot of options, so it was good to experience different places while there. read more

We ordered the fish taco and the birria tacos. The fish soft taco was tasty. The grilled fish was topped with a nice crunchy cabbage slaw and drizzled with a dressing. I was disappointed with the birria soft taco. The meat was dry and didn't have any additional broth to season it. The tacos came with some pickled carrots and radish. Unfortunately they were they were a little soft and not very pickled. The ordering experience was good because the service was quick and the cashier was friendly and helpful when ordering. Tip: This food truck is not located with all the other trucks in the main area. It is located in the back of the parking lot close to the hotel the food truck park is adjacent to. It can get hot there at lunchtime, luckily there are a couple of covered picnic tables with shade. read more

I came here for a Yelp Elite event last week for the first time. The food truck is located in the Triangle food court adjacent to the Courtyard by Marriott. The food is terrific. I had two barria tacos and one shrimp taco. I was talking about this food truck to my 3 or my coworkers, and they all had great things to say about this truck. The husband of one of my workers drives from Kihei several times a week just to eat lunch here. I will be back with the family on my next visit. read more

My hunny and I LOVE this place so much! It's a MUST stop every time we come to Lahaina! Food: We always get the Birria and Asada Quesatacos with a side of rice and beans and consommé each! It's so filling and so delicious. Especially when dipping it into the consommé it just makes everything so moist and delicious. On the weekends it gets a little busy, but I can assure you it is so well worth the wait! Lahaina is on the hot side, so if the table they have under their tent is in use, I would suggest eating it in your car in THE AC or taking it to go and eat at home or in your hotel. Other then that I will always be back for some Quesatacos! read more

Well I can officially cross "eat the world's best fish tacos" off my bucket list because I just had them here. No kidding, they are really outstanding tacos. Overstuffed with fresh fish and toppings. They are served with a tasty salsa verde on the side. Its gonna get messy so ask for extra napkins. You can get soft tortillas or fried. Both are equally good. Located in a small food truck court, where you can also park for free. Double highly recommend. read more

Located across Costco in the open lot with other food trucks, Las Islitas offers a great selection of Mexican Foods. Tried the Birria Tacos, Fish Burrito, Chips and Salsa. Also tried the Jarritos Strawberry and Pineapple Sodas which were refreshing and not too sweet. The Birria tacos were excellent, had a good amount of meat (had shredded beef) and cheese. The consome had a spice to it. I prefer it on the more mild side. The fish used in the burrito was mahi mahi and it was also great. The fish was soft and other ingredients like the rice, beans, etc were tasty. I haven't tried too many mexican places on Maui but this is one spot that I will come back to. f read more

Take all my money and give me all the quesatacos!! I always tell myself I'll try something new, but I stick with the tacos because they are THE best I've ever had. I do wish they had more seating but it's a food truck and you don't really come for the ambiance. read more

All I can say is this place sells the best Birria Tacos I ever had. This taco Food Truck is located by the Kahului Marriot which is located across of Costco. Everytime I call (which is quite frequent for me) I speak to a friendly young gal on the telephone. She tells me how long it will be and the most important question is "would you want the tacos crispy or soft", and of course I choose crispy. The only way to go. You may choose to Sit at there table which is under a tent or you may choose to go. It's totally up to you. The ambiance is hmmm it's a food truck! So it's pretty neat. I always say to myself I will try something different the next time I'm here but I don't I ashtrays get these Birria Tacos because that's how good it is. But maybe sometime this week I'll try something different hehe! Also if you call your order in it usually takes about 15-20 minutes. Make sure you try some of this delicious food! I'm sure glad that I did. read more

As a seasoned Mexican food critic, I must say this establishment truly impressed for food truck fare. The beans and rice, often the litmus test of any Mexican meal, surpassed expectations with their authentic flavor and perfect texture. The carne asada burrito was a generous portion bursting with flavor, a testament to the chef's mastery. And let's not forget the spicy salsa, a harmonious blend of heat and flavor that hit all the right spots, elevating every bite to new heights. This place is a gem for anyone seeking genuine Mexican cuisine done right in a relaxed food truck atmosphere. Service is slow but keep in mind it's made fresh....don't rush the process read more

Really good Mexican food at the Kahului food truck court. Previously, I tried the crunchy tacos which were to die for, and this time the pork burrito was big enough to split. But it wouldn't have been hard to eat it all because it was very good. I like that they have a picnic table right next to the food truck which makes it convenient to stay. Parking can sometimes be tricky when they're busy here, but it looks like there will be more parking coming soon next-door. I got the spicy salsa and it was indeed spicy, but bearable and worthwhile getting. It was a pleasure to stop here and grab a quick lunch. read more

Without a doubt, Front Street is great but take the short 5 minute walk to this quaint little food truck park one street over and you'll be glad you did. There's even thirty minute parking for patrons. The wait may be a little long, but worth it. Each taco is made to order and well crafted. We ordered the fish and birria soft tacos as well as the chorizo quesotaco. The coleslaw was great but the fish itself was just ok. Runner up was the chorizo which was greasy but good. Our favorite was birria - meat was tender and plentiful. We tried both salsas but the red was preferred as it had more of a kick. Limited seating is available. Of all the food trucks I've visited in Maui, this had been one of the cleanest. Few, if any, flies to swat away and wipes are provided. read more

We are out in Manteca quite a bit for Baseball and prefer anything but fast food. The crispy tacos are a must here! So delicious!

Came here after getting a recommendation to come here from a friend. We were in the area for whale watching (2 hrs) and afterwards we were very hungry! We came here and ordered Quesabirria Tacos and a California Burrito. Everything tasted really good and was reasonably priced. The food was served quickly and was conveniently located . I definitely recommend going there if you're in the Lahaina area. read more

Today I got the lengua torta. The lengua was oh so tender and flavorful. The amount of lengua was reasonable, not just bread. Though the bread had a nice crispiness on the crust but soft inside. All in all a good torta and very filling. On a side note, they are one of the first Lahaina businesses to reestablish themselves after the devastating west maui wildfire. They a beacon of hope and perseverance for all affected. Best of luck. #lahainastrong #mauistrong read more

The burrs and fish burrito is our go to on some nights we don't take out! So yummy always hits the spot!

Wow! This spot met the expectations. The staff was super friendly and very helpful when asking for sides and extra sauces. The Pork and Fish were so incredible! The pork was very tender and juicy with amazing flavor that really stands out in the mix of cheeses and sauce. The fish portions were very generous and thick, flaky and buttery, not battered or over seasoned. Cooked perfectly with amild flavor. Consome dipping sauce was a level up for everything. I truly recommend and will forever return to this local treasure!! Tacos are my favorite and Mariscos knew the assignment. We ordered the fish and pork tacos, pork mulita's, pork and Astana burritos. Even their marinated carrots were delicious. read more

Husband and I finally got to try this Taco food trailer after so many people hyped it up to us. We ordered 2 tacos each, rice, and beans. For tacos we got, 2 birrias, 1 carne asada, 1 chorizo. Unfortunately our plates were not labeled so we didn't know which taco belonged to who. They probably should try to label the plates so people know if they got the right taco. The cashier was polite and sweet, told us it would be 20 minutes wait time. The total came out to $29.30. The food trailer is located in a food truck parking lot across Costco. The trailer itself is a bit further from the central seating area. Not too much shade available near their trailer, so it was hot waiting in the sun. The tacos tasted pretty much like your normal tacos. Nothing that stands out. The small plates came with carrots, jalapeños, and radishes which I did not care for because it just tasted spicy to me. Super oily compared to others places I've ate at. The highlight of the dish would be the beans (fyi- does not come with the tacos). I recommend they make a note on their menu that some items come with the side carrots, radish, and jalapenos so it might be spicy. This would be a great note to make especially if you're sharing food with someone who can't handle the heat or if a child tries to eat one of these added sides. read more

I finally made it here! I had been wanting to stop by for the longest time, but you know that drive to west side just for food seems so far sometimes. Birria has been quite the trend ,however most places only do it on special, I haven't seen any one else but these guys who have it daily. After talking to the foodie queen herself Maria P about birria, she told me she's tried so many on this island, & no one can compete with them, so I had to try it for myself. Went with the birria quesatacos & of course the consome. It was still early, so there was no one in line, so I got my food pretty quick. Drove back into town, everything still warm. Holy birria, it was like a party in my mouth! The crispy cheesy shell, the perfectly moist meat, liquid dripping out everywhere.The tartness of the lime & a little bit of spice from the salsa, perfection. The consome, was so savory & added that extra flavor, honestly you could without it if you want. It's very flavorful on its own. There is also a mild salsa also which was very good, but I think we can agree, a little spice is always good. The spicy salsa wasn't mouth on fire hot but packed enough heat & once its on your taco, it becomes the perfect addition on there. All I can say is wow! Haven't had a moment like that in a while. Highly recommend this one! read more

Originally in Lahaina town until it burned down, Las Islitas now has 2 locations, 1 opposite Costco in Kahului, and the other outside IDG grocery store in Lahaiana. Both serve excellent authentic Mexican food (I know because my Mexican friends swear by it and get them to cater birthday parties etc). I love the Mulitas (basically a crispy taco sandwich) and the quesadillas (soft taco sandwich) with prawns, but everything is good! You can tell they are popular as there is always a line and you have to wait for the food to be cooked fresh, individually. Yum! Worth the wait. I would definitely recommend both locations, competitively priced and delicious. Ask for the hot salsa if you need to unblock your nasal passages :) read more

WOAH! As a tourist from California, I did not expect to fall in love with Mexican food in Maui!! But I sure did! My family and I ordered from this food truck and was pleasantly surprised. I tasted everybody's food and everyone agreed that my order was the best. So let me tell you what to get.... QUESATACO. Specifically the birria quesataco! Those blew me away! So flavorful! And what a different a crunchy shell makes on these tacos. P.S. don't forget to order consommé. The other item I had was an asada mulita! Again, it was crispy and flavorful. Super delicious as well! Most of the tacos and mulitas I have had in California are on soft tortillas and the crispy tortilla was a game changer! Take my advice and order birria or asada and make sure to get it on a quesataco or mulita. read more

Wow wow wow, I used to say ono Tacos was the best in Lahaina, move over there is a new king in town. A friend of mine knows I love good food and I am always on the look out for the Dimond in the rough, he suggested I try this place, man do I owe him a lot. Yes, it's a food truck but if your visiting you need to know maui food trucks are high end eating, because brick and mortar leases are stupid expensive our top Chefs have taken their talents on the go. But I digress... To the right of the "maui jims" place old parking lot, in the back to the left you will find the diamond mine called Las Islitas , I had one of each as usual to try just for you ( your welcome) I had the QUESOTACO, 4 to be exact Birria, adobada, chorizo, Lengua, Good GOD almighty this isn't food you just shove in you face hole, no no no , you bite it pause...let the euphoria go through your body , let the flash backs from quincenas and weddings of the past where the best Birria is made slow cooked buried underground in a pib like an Imu, usually only for special occasions because of the massive efforts involved BUT I digress again Some people think a taco is a taco, NOT SO ! THE FLAVOR OF THE MEAT WILL ALWAYS SET YOU A PART. The flavor is beyond imagination, I had a friend I was hanging with a multimillionaire, he asked if I knew a good place to get lunch, I said as a matter of fact I do, I took him here, his eyes got big he said a roach coach!! I laughed and said no sir this is a food truck, with worry in his face he said I have NEVER eaten in a ...what you called it food truck? I said yes sir trust me I said , he did, he took one bite looked at me with the OMG look, he said Randy, I have traveled the world and ate at the best places this world has to offer but this place beats them all , I smiled like a father taking his kid to Disneyland for the first time , the look on his face was priceless...thanked me 100 times for taking him there and introducing him to the magic of The Food truck. Come enjoy and know there probably will be a line, but worthy of the wait The price is par for Maui, me and my wife get ours to go park by the beach and enjoy good food , good view and great company And you are welcome read more

Place stays busy which is a good sign. Service is good as is the food. Ordered the quesatacos and the asada fries. Definitely would order again.

This two-year-old hole-in-the-wall food truck offers authentic quesotacos with consome, which I was happily surprised to see here on the island since this taco trend has only fairly recently taken California by storm. Get the adobada and birria quesotacos! Both are on par with or even slightly better than what I've had back home in OC. Consomé is tasty and flavorful, but be mindful of ordering more than you need for the tacos bc it's quite overwhelming on its own -- one $2 serving is plenty to share between 2-3 taco orders. Premium seafood options are fish and shrimp; I'd skip the fish bc it was just ok but my bf got the shrimp and said it was one of his favorites. On Fridays they serve ceviche as a special, which seems to be quite popular as I saw many of the local regulars come and ask for it. Great truck with super friendly service - workers were cheerful, accommodating and informative on both of our visits here. A quaint local gem in Lahaina for all taco lovers! ** PRO-TIP: Will run out of birria as early as noon, but you can call in and ask them to set some aside for you whenever you decide to come in! read more

This truck was recommended by all of our family members ! They were raving about the Birria tacos ! We stopped by here after a long day from Road to Hana! We got there before closing and the Birria was all sold out , so we decided to try one taco of each different type of meat! The wait is a little bit especially since they are pretty busy, but it was 100% worth the wait! My favorite where the shrimp tacos dorados!! 10/10! All of their tacos where delicious and would 100% recommend anyone that is staying in Lahaina or driving by there! It was a little hidden , it is right behind front street on Waynee st across from the church !! read more

We have been wanting to try this food truck for a while. Once we went and they were sold out, another time we couldn't get an answer on the phone to order ahead, so third times a charm!!! Quesotacos: we ordered 4 to share. Fish, shrimp, barria & carne asada. All of them were DELICIOUS! They all had a good amount of meat and flavor. We would get all of them again when we go back.... we will go with a larger appetite so we can also maybe get a burrito! Covid: Employees wearing masks. Sanitizer provided. Covered table outside to enjoy the food. Be on the look out for chickens... just like everywhere on Maui. Would we return? Yes!
