There was a little confusion when I ordered only because I thought it was saying it came with carne asada but when I got there she said it was extra so I paid extra for meat and guacamole.

Walking into the place, it felt like every other taco spot on Oʻahu. I had a craving to satisfy, so…read moreI figured I'd give it a shot. I ordered the carnitas tacos, grabbed my food, and headed next door for a drink. The moment I picked up the taco, I knew something was different. The aroma, the heat, and the juices dripping from it told me I was in for a treat. After the first bite, it was game over--the taco never made it back to the plate. My only mission was to finish it. That's why there are no pictures. I actually went back inside just to compliment the chef. This is the closest thing to Taco El Gordo I've found on Oʻahu, and I'll absolutely be back for more.

Pick a seat - plenty of options ranging from booths to tables for 2, 4, 6 & above. Furniture is a bit outdated but it gives off a homey feel. Greeted promptly, drinks & pupus ordered & served swiftly. Dinner orders placed shortly after & after seeing the multiple take out orders going out the door, we understood why it took a bit longer for our food to be served. No biggie! Prices are affordable, portions are filling (we had plenty of leftovers). Great taste, pleasing to the eye. Plenty of parking Go early!

So far the chimichanga, enchiladas, chile relleno have been our go tos! Their salsa is soooo good, I need to keep from licking the bowl!

I decided to have dinner and drinks with one of my best friends after a photo shoot at Kailua beach park. We had no issue at all with parking which is always a win when you're in the middle of Kailua, My friend and I both ordered the Li Hing mui margarita blended and you know it lasted us the whole time we sat at our table lol. Their margaritas are served in fishbowl glasses and so yummy! I also ordered their Birria tacos with consommé. It was okay. I felt like I tasted more oil and grease and couldn't put my finger on the taste of the consommé sauce. Our waitress was so kind and upbeat. She offered us another round to which we declined and had a smile on her face every time she came around. I would definitely recommend stopping by if you're in the area for a drink or a great time

She told me to sit wherever and no menu, no communication whatsoever. About 5 minutes later a girl came and literally tossed a menu on my table then walked away.

Probably the closest to true Mexican street tacos you'll find in Mexico. The tacos were simple but cooked and seasoned well. The salsa had a nice spice and flavor as well. The cilantro and onions went well with the carnitas. Service was fast as well. Looking forward to trying out more items on the menu.

The tacos were a generous portion and tasted good! I was thrilled when he asked for no cilantro the order was accurate (harder to do than one would think). Nice to have more Mexican food options on this side of the island. Hopefully this place lasts a long time as the restaurants in this shopping complex change often. I would go back and get more tacos for sure.

Was a little overdone for me, but the taste was great. Hubs coulda used more salt, but with a squeeze of lime, I thought was perf. We aren't usually cerviche people... but this one cucumbers were still super crisp. YUM. Perfect. Baby ate the Tri Tip, some burger, but loooooved the potatoes. I don't know how they were prepared since I don't cook potatoes often...But was nice and salty on the outside and soft on the inside. Baby also liked the guac...she basically used the chip as her spoon. Salsa was too hot for her, but I thought had a nice and fairly mild kick. I know some of the other salsas kick a little harder. Still one of my fave Mexican places in Hawaii...

We have come here off/on throughout the year and had ok experiences. We craved Mexican food and…read morethought to give it another try. We ordered two taco plates (one asada $22 and the other carnitas $20), a side of beans, side of rice, and chips & salsa. It came out to $61.78, I gave a $8 tip, and there is a 3% surcharge to use a credit card = $71.87. I almost feel a bit sick that I paid over $70 for this meal. The tip suggestions are categorized so high (I saw one option being $12+). And there is no service involved other than your food was brought out on a tray. Also, I think businesses should say if you're being charged extra to use your credit card. I also think businesses should not make you pay for that service. But, I digress. Food came out fast. I thought the rice was good, except the peas inside can be a bit dried up, the beans were very thick. My husband enjoyed his asada. My carnitas was so bland, I thought I was eating plain boiled chicken. I brought it back saying I ordered carnitas, and the boy working said twice, "That IS carnitas." I was embarrassed, but that goes to show how bland it was.. I have eaten carnitas a lot! I thought the "service" was subpar. No friendly faces. I spent awhile tipping the water receptacle to get the drops of water remaining. The boy working passed me a few times and did not say anything. I heard him tell the couple next to us, that there was complimentary water, but not much water in the container.. mostly ice. I was thinking.. can you fill it?! My husband ended up asking the cook who refilled it, but talk about lazy! I'm sorry for the rant, it's expensive to live in Hawaii and I think people are eating out less because it's a lot to afford. So it makes it frustrating to spend a lot of money for mediocre food and poor service. We live in the area and want to support businesses, but want to feel like we are appreciated as customers. I think this was our final attempt to give this place a chance. Go to Los Chapparros where you'll be greeted very warmly with yummy food.
