This place was amazing. You could drive right by...hidden gem. Do yourself a favor and stop. You won't be disappointed. Next time I'll come on the weekend.... have to try the tamales! Great homemade tortillas! read more

Everything is gluten free. Homemade thick corn tortillas are delicious. Many meat, fish, vegetarian and vegan options. The tacos are big, one was enough for me, and most are $7. Can't wait to eat here again! read more

Great fish tacos. Good service and reasonable prices. We got the fish tacos our first time and went back to try the lamb taco (recommended by the staff), however we were not impressed with the lamb. The fish was great though! read more

there is no where on kauai where you can get this quality and tasty food for this price. unbelievable how fresh this place is. if you have $5, you can be full and feel damn good about it! read more

I went here last night, just to try it because of all the good reviews and I must say that was the worst fish taco I had ever, I don't know if the fish was bad or what, it smelled so bad, I won't try this place ever again! read more

I have to say that I have never eaten here, but that I watched the employees or owners cut in front of us at a supermarket and that their purchase items were worrysome..Ie: multi-colored marshmellows, some scary looking frozen fish..hmm. Don't think I'll chance that. The attitude and expression of the two women was not becoming either....surly at best. read more

Kapaa has no shortage of taco shops, and I've tried them all. Tiki is the best. Ask the locals - 9 out of 10 will agree. They use fresh ingredients and have something for everyone (vegan/GF friendly). The service is always great and the atmosphere is funky and fun. Their tortillas are made in-house daily and they even offer one made from non-gmo blue corn (but you have to ask for it). read more

The best food I had in Kauai all week. Arrived 8pm with the kids after a busy day exploring. Had the Pork, Fish, and Chicken. Yes dad does clean up. They were awesome. Fresh and a good size. $5 each. A note on the door explains that they use organic and gluten free products as well as source local for ingredients. read more

This place is SOOO good! The size of the tacos is huge, with the best flavor and really great service! If you want to try really Mexican food tiki tacos should be your best option in Kauai read more

Awesome place for gluten-free needs! We were delightfully surprised by this recommendation!

Tiki Tacos has very generous tacos. The handmade tortillas and fresh seafood are a perfect combination. The salsa and queso fresco are a perfect taco. We only had a chance to have them twice while in the Island. This place is a gem. read more

The veggie taco of my dreams!! We non carnivores are unfortunately used to being snubbed in restaurants, but there were a few to choose from here. Actually, every taste (fish, beef, chicken, pork) had multiple to choose from! I got the spicy veggie (I don't recall what they called it) and one of the fish (I'll do fish if needed). The fish was great, but the veggie was AMAZING! Vegetarians get used to a standard restaurant fare, but they actually too the effort to put in a LOT of kinds of veggies! I'm not even sure I can remember them all...onions, peppers, jalapenos, carrots, broccoli, peas (added a nice sweet bit in there), I mushrooms, and I'm sure I am missing some. Another highlight was the size...these tacos are huge! One will do fine for lunch, unless your appetite is huge (which is easy with all the hiking to be done on Kauai). We'd hiked about 8 miles that morning, went for lunch and got 2 each (being used to standard taqueria fare), could hardly finish, and ended up just snacking for dinner. Being from California, we are taco folks, so we have "standards." We also saw some other people from our hotel there, and when we ran into them later that day, they said they were from Texas, and therefore they had "very high taco standards," and it was "the best taco I'd ever had." read more

Tiki Tacos is FANTASTIC. Service was awesome, they got my order right (I'm one of those picky people who makes complicated orders), and they were friendly about it too. Cute little location, convenient and fast!! But the real star are the tacos. I got the best fish taco and the grilled Ahi. Oh my gosh. You can not go wrong with them, especially the grilled ahi, both tacos had perfectly flavorful fish (which some places the fish is bland, but I could eat this by the fork fills). And the homemade tortillas.. oh my that's probably what will get you coming back. They charge for guacamole and salsa, but it's SO worth the charge. Plus the tacos are huge and super filling!! Definitely top on my taco radar so far! read more

Absolutely amazing!! My wife and daughter have celiac and dining out can be a challenge. Thankfully we found Tiki Taco while vacationing to Kaua'i. The entire place is gluten free. Fresh seafood, juicy poultry and homemade corn tortillas are wonderful. Portions are large and very reasonably priced. We will be visiting this gem many times his week! read more

Great food, fast service, and fresh ingredients! Couldn't ask for anything more. Highly recommend! ...and try the green hot sauce

Very tasty with fresh ingredients. We had the Surf and Turf tacos and the Fish tacos. Very friendly and helpful.

The tacos are OUTSTANDING! And huge! We had a hard time getting a table, and we waited over 30 minutes for the tacos. Worth the wait, but don't expect them in a hurry. Recommend calling ahead or getting tacos to go. read more

The tacos are amazing!! I came here while on vacation and was craving some Mexican food. I'm usually always skeptical of very large tacos because I'm accustomed to ordering street tacos, however, Tiki Tacos were just oversized tacos that tasted just as good as street tacos. The meat and fish were all extremely fresh, as were the tortillas. The sauces really complemented the meats and brought good flavor to the taco so it didn't taste too drenched or too flavorless. The place is really small and looks like a hole-in-the-wall, and those are the kinds of places that often have the best food. The only drawback is that the food takes a while to prepare. The guy at the counter will tell you it's going to take 15-20 minutes and it's probably going to be more like 20-25 minutes, or maybe it seemed that way because we were so hungry. My advice is, don't come starving and if you do, order 2-3 tacos and try as many different ones as you can. read more

Amazing tacos. We had the cabron ans loco both awesome. The cabron is spicy. But awesome.

So good. Must get the Kalua pork taco!! It doesn't look like much but it is tasty and fresh!

Great prices for the island. Paid $7 for the fish (ono) taco and it was piled high with slaw. Tortilla was very tasty. Not much seating but we didn't have any trouble finding a table outside. read more

The tacos are large portions and always delicious! This is not a goopy taco with lots of everything heaped on top. The ingredients are fresh, made to order and pulls together just the right amount of ingredients to allow you to taste the flavors. The cabbage and queso fresco is a great finishing topping. Locally farmed meat was tender and flavorful. Been there twice- will return. read more

I left Kapaa 6 days ago and I can't stop thinking about these tacos. Seriously. We went to this place three times, and I had something new each time. The grilled beef, spicy pork, pollo loco, and fish tacos are all amazing. Everything is made to order including the tortillas. You can't beat that for $5 bucks. The ladies who run the place are really friendly, and they have vegan options for your vegan friends. This place was as amazing, and laid back as the rest of the island. read more

Pretty bad tacos, but I guess I'm used to authentic stuff here in so cal

Long hair in my mouth as I chewed halfway through my "best fish taco." So nasty. Seriously, your employees aren't wearing hairnets?

prices are high but worth it when you see the serving size. we ordered our tacos without the sour cream and queso fresco (blasphemous I know but lactose intolerance struggle is real) but I think it allowed the flavors to be highlighted instead of drowned out. fish was alight. pig was flavorful. shrimp was the best...tender and yummy read more

Food was spicy and pretty tasty. The owner took my order as I told him no cabbage. My tacos of course come out with cabbage which is fine, people make mistakes and it was probably the cooks. However, once my corrected order comes out he gives it to me and all he says is"Mahalo". LOL ummmm ok? How about learning how to apologize in Hawaiian? read more

Just finished my salad bowl w/spicey fish & veggies....mmmmm! He had the panolio taco w/veggies. Also an excellent choice (according to him. We did add some extra avocado chunks on top that we purchased nearby at the farmers mkt, so, maybe that helped in the yummy factor. Whatever, it was really good & I would go back again for sure! The guy at the register was very nice & explained their menu to us because we must've come in all wide-eyed & lost looking! Go there!! Not expensive, but can be very healthy & yummy! read more

Ok. First the positives. Owners seemed to take pride in place. They even asked if anything was for kids so they could make it "kid" friendly. Appreciate the thoughtfulness. Nice small hole in the wall. Great selection but it seemed as if all the tacos tasted the same. We had the carne asada, chorizo, and fish. Was expecting cilantro and onions but it was a cabbage slaw type mix. Meat was more like ground meat but was expecting more steak like chunks or strips. I couldn't tell what the chorizo loin was. All in all food was quality just not what i was expecting. I dunno. 3 stars still satisfactory. I would eat here again though read more

Not high end Mexican cuisine but for a taco shop they are great. Love the house made corn tortillas and Kalua pig.

The tortillas are indeed great! Surprisingly, the fish tacos use swordfish and are not all that great. If that was the only one I ordered I would probably give a 2.5 stars. I liked the beef ones much more. read more

Freshest tacos I've ever had and that includes the ones I had in Mexico. The service was A++++ I know this is going to come across as naive but how can any business in Kauai ever be 'out of chicken'. Step out the front door, cover eyes, swing stick, hit chicken. Voila, chicken back on the menu. Granted I know nothing about the chicken I eat so much of so it's quite possible it's not that easy. read more

Amazing food! Great menu! Good vibes! The pork,shrimp and beef tacos were out of this world.

Hands down the best tacos on the Island. Don't let there 6 dollar price tag fool you. The tacos are huge and well worth the money. Two tacos is a push unless you are super hungry! The menu is a little hard to read but the cashier at the counter gave a great run down of the menu. My favorite was the carne. Would visit again! read more

Best fish tacos on Kauai. Hands down. You'd drive right by it and never notice it if you didn't look for it or know it is there. Worth a little drive up from Poipu if you are on vacation and want some authentic local fare. read more

Reaallly good tacos at a fair price. That's really all you need to know, but since you asked... Friendly service, good atmosphere. We were clearly tourists in a room full of locals and didn't feel out of place at all. We had the fish tacos, chicken tacos and the little one got a quesadilla. All excellent. read more

These tacos live up to the hype. Had the kahuna and the fish tacos (Ono).

Some of the best tacos on the island, try the Kalua pork and fish tacos for sure! Homemade tortilla, massive in size

Wow. Amazing local joint with farm fresh ingredients. One taco is plenty! So glad we stumbled upon this place.

These tacos are so delicious and fresh! We vacationed here for a week and hit this place 3 times to try the different tacos in they were all so delicious! You can't go wrong no matter what you select. read more
