    Giant Davis Torta.
    Carlos A.

    Being from Los Angeles and having grown up eating Mexican food... I have to say it was hard to find authentic carne asada in Hawaii. But Davis Tacos is the spot! They're on the corner of Piikoi and Kinau in the Youngs Wine and spirits parking lot. Behind the Makiki Safeway. I love their carne asada burritos but the winner is the Davis Torta! It's a giant torta with grilled bread, beans, onion, cilantro, a generous amount of carne asada, and large slices of queso fresco and avocado. On Fridays they have Birria which is also delicious and authentic. I definitely recommend Davis Tacos if you're looking for that authentic Mexican food taste and vibe. The staff is very friendly and hard working too, you can't go wrong with Davis Tacos.

    Just tried it for the first time during lunch, so good! They had a pop up inside of Ki Club. Not too many Mexican places on island offers tortas on their menu so I was excited to try and it was awesome. Portion size is huge and I love that this came with the huge pieces of queso fresco and avocado. I'll be coming back again for sure.

    Prepping for the lunch rush under the pop up tent in the convenience store parking lot.

    $6 for a tiny taco seems a little high, but the actual food? It's okay, kind of dry, but I've had a lot better ones

    I ordered the $26 birria set and I was really hesitant because that is so expensive for 3 birria…read moretacos When I opened the box I wanted to throw up because I was fucking so sick to my stomach at what I saw Three LITTLE ASS fucking tacos look like Jack n the box mini tacos and stale and crunchy shells which I assume used to be soft corn tortillas that are just old It's over $26 after tax that's $8.66 per little ass taco I gave three stars because I honestly feel bad for them tho idk how they are paying rent at restaurant row and selling enough of this to break even And the birria is actually ok but it really should at least come with beans and rice for $25 or sell it for $15 at the very most realistically should be like $8 but I know it's Hawai'i but come on holy fucking hell

However, the margaritas felt a bit too light and mostly tasted like melted ice, which was a little disappointing. The food was okay overall, but there's definitely room to improve consistency and quality across the menu. We truly love supporting local spots, and hope they can fine-tune the drinks and food so the experience matches the great idea behind the business. Wishing them growth and better consistency moving forward.

    About a month ago I walked by a man eating a burrito at the beach and I couldn't help noticing that…read morethe tortilla looked better than any other I'd seen in Hawaii. I believe that Mexican food is only as good as the tortilla, so I asked him where he got it and he said "Thyda's - bro you have to go!" Well, today I finally went and let me tell you - that random beach man was absolutely right! I got the carnitas burrito and it was simply perfect. At $12, I'd say it was reasonably priced too. Service was fast and Thyda and Magid - the husband and wife owners - were so friendly and chill. You can tell they take a lot of pride in what they do and love whipping up great food with a great attitude. They talked to us while we ate and shared a little of their 10 year taco stand journey. I wasn't surprised to learn they spent years in LA. The food definitely holds up to LA standards. Head's up - there's no tables and not much seating or parking. We ate on a small step near where you order. Also note that they have Taco Tuesday deals. Can't believe I've been missing out on this place for so long and I can't wait to go back! Check it out

    I love these tacos (and burritos and mulitas). Best I've ever had anywhere I guess…read more I've had everything on the menu except jackfruit and quesadillas and bowls. Everything is so good. I hope these folks stay in business for at least the rest of my life and I (selfishly) hope they don't ever relocate too far from town.

But what I didn't know was that they don't have a happy hour...they have a HAPPY DAY!!!!! 10-6 PM!

Flavor was solid, portion was generous, and the food itself is the main reason I keep coming back. The ambiance is chill and local. Most of the afternoon crowd seemed to know each other, which gives the place a comfortable neighborhood feel. That said, the inside is a little dingy and could probably use a renovation. The issue on this visit was the service. When we got there, it was pretty empty, maybe 4 or 5 people sitting at the bar. The guy working behind the bar seated us, but then never brought menus, never brought water, and never came back to take our order. When my friend tried waving him down, he ignored us. Eventually another employee came in, and the bartender just told him, "Go take his order," without acknowledging us at all. I don't know if he was only working the bar that day, but he could have at least brought water, menus, or simply said someone would be right with us. Instead, the whole interaction came across as dismissive and unnecessary. Food was very good as always, but service matters too. Based on this visit, I'd call it 3 stars overall.
