    Food truck from Heaven
    Mike P.

    Best, freshest fish tacos on Kaua'i or any place I've been. They have their own boat. Name sake Al Pastor is great. Too many great choices to get through in 2 weeks. They've been here 12 years and we've eaten here all 12. Ask a "local" they'll tell ya

    Burrito

    Good burrito with lots of yummy filling as well as chips and salsa. Nice service as well. Lots of tables to sit at right outside of where you order at the food truck with covering as well so you are out of the sun!

    Great location right off the Ke Ala Hele trail and there's tons of parking and seating. Service was wonderful and the wait time was fast. -lots of food and it ranged from around $14-$16 for two tacos, rice, and beans -the Al pastor tacos were tasty, but there needed to be more pineapple -the fish tacos were good, but needed more acid / onions -they have a 3.7% credit card service charge, so if you have cash, use it!

    Ahi tuna taco and shrimp burrito
    Mannee G.

    Tuna tacos were good, so was shrimp burrito ,a lot of people in line . I'm going back next time I'm in Kauai.

    Would not recommend. Shrimp and ahi tuna tacos.

    Got the shrimp tacos and ahi tuna taco. Both were bland. The corn tortilla was not heated or grilled. Lifeless fish and shrimp: no sear, no flavor, no grill marks. Cabbage and sauce were bright and promising but lacked flavor. Overall the tacos didn't deliver any freshness or flavor. Would not recommend.

    Lots of seating!

    Great tacos! That's my go to whenever I come here. The last couple of times, I've done a shrimp & fish combo. The great thing is that it's fresh, local caught, so one day you might get ahi, another day you might get mahi mahi. The lady who runs it is so sweet & easy to talk to. This is right up the street from where I live in Kapaa, so it's my go-to if I'm wanting tacos in particular.

    Fish burrito
    Cole D.

    Love the energy and friendliness here. The worker was so nice and sweet. Very gentle attitude. I got the steak taco (YUM YOU GOTTA GET IT) and a fish burrito. The steak taco has so much juicy flavor and it's so tasty. I paused in awe halfway through my first bite, I kid you not. Super yummy. I like how they space out two tortillas so it's a longer taco. Packed with meat. The fish burrito was just all right I will say. The sauce it comes with is just fine. I wish I had gotten fish tacos, but the burrito is a good size, good decent burrito. It didn't have the same majesty as the taco. Great outdoor seating. Super windy though. Nice shade.

    Faun was super friendly and attentive with our order. The tacos are delicious. Great place to get a quick bite after the beach (or before/during).

    Tacos al pastor and one fish taco on the side

    Coming from a true hispanic, I did not expect this taco spot to be as delicious as authentic Mexican tacos but I was surprised. I would say they are better than many mexican taco trucks in California and I am not exaggerating!! Pricey for sure but the entire state of Hawaii is expensive. Not sure why people complain if they fly out to Hawaii knowing it's expensive. All in all, I will go back to this place for my next trip

    See all
