My partner and I was craving Mexican food, and if you've read my last Hispanic food review, you'd…read moresee that I mentioned that my partner is very critical of Hispanic food (because he is Hispanic), so when we decided to get Mexican food we decided to make the drive out to Kapolei from town to try a new spot. This spot is a very large establishment. They have a sports bar inside and a lot of seating in and outside (covered). We opted to sit outside and despite being decently busy, we were seated pretty quickly. Our waitress was friendly and we were able to order and get free chips and salsa (two kinds). We got: * Horchata: 7/10 this was okay. I don't usually care for horchata but my partner thought it wasn't bad (he's very picky about the horchatas here in Hawaii) * Carne Asada Torta: 10/10 WOW this was my first ever torta and it was SO GOOD. Ruined all other tortas for me since. My partner said it was the best torta he's had in Hawaii so far too. The bread was fluffy and light while having a very nice crust. It was cheesy and all the toppings went very well together. The carne asada was also pretty smokey and flavorful. MMM would drive back to Kapolei just for this again hah. * Carne Asada Quesadilla Grande: 6.7/10 this was okay too. I didn't realize that the toppings (pico, guac, sour cream) would be INSIDE of the quesadilla. First time I've had a quesadilla made this way, it was very... wet?... not TERRIBLE but a very different experience than I expected (and taste obviously) * California Fries: 5.7/10 literally the worse California fries I've had... but hey fries, cheese, and meat... can't go wrong with that. The cheese was more of a sauce than actual cheese. The fries weren't fresh. The meat was okay, same meat as the ones in the torta and quesadilla but, without all the toppings, the negatives couldn't be hidden (like the super chewy pieces, etc) * Birria Tacos: 4/10... Worse birria tacos I've had as well. The flavors just weren't coming through. The tortillas should have more color on it. Needs more cheese. The consommé should be more concentrated in my opinion. The only upside is they didn't skimp on the meat. The service was pretty quick and this seems like a solid spot for tortas (idk about some of the other items). Would probably be a good spot for a large party.

Gave an extra star because they have a big spot with plenty of seats and good food…read more They were supposed to auto-charge gratuity for our party of 6 which irritates me, but they didn't and took a chance. We had other meals for our party and everyone liked their food We checked out the Hawaiian food place nearby and it was very loud with live music, and this place was quiet enough for us to talk and hear each other All the meals were big enough for takeout of leftovers.

Good food and good service. The inside decor is fun and cheerful. It is a small restaurant, but…read morecomforting and quiet. Everything is fresh. They have a coffee flan, which was great for coffee lovers. I would definitely go again. The server was very sweet. Mahalo.

We had a difficult time finding the entrance (there was a truck blocking the signage--I'm assuming…read moreit was the owner's because they were unloading). We walked in and had to ask if they were open as we weren't immediately greeted. We got to choose our seats and tried to find the coolest spot because it was hot inside! According to the server--their ac was broken. It reminded us of traveling to Mexico and eating at the restaurants there . The decor is very similar and authentic to restaurants in Mexico. They even had lots of the candies found there surrounding their register area. The server was super friendly and attentive once we were seated, I just wish she would've written down our order instead of trying to take it all by memory as she got some things wrong with our order. Now onto the food. Mexican food in Hawaii is nothing to write home about. This was no exception. Our family of 4 ordered: the California Burrito, the super burrito (I actually ordered the chimichanga but it came out as a burrito), Birria tacos, Birria quesadilla, a bean and cheese burrito (the hubby's favorite thing to order at a Mexican restaurant) and because it was taco Tuesday--the carne asada street tacos (which I think the server forgot because we had to remind her) and the flan for dessert. The burritos were of good size and nicely filled. I enjoyed the super burrito but it needed the red sauce that was put on the table. The shrimp inside was very flavorful. My daughter loved her California burrito (it has French fries in it--lol). The birria was delicious--the consommé was pretty bland though. The bean and cheese burrito was cold in the middle and not as generously sized as the other burritos. The best thing that we had was the flan. I love flan and the texture of theirs was amazing. The sauce was a mixed review with the family. I liked it and the fact that there was a lot of it. There was a slight fridge taste but it was still delicious. My husband tried to make a suggestion about moving the large truck that was in front of the restaurant blocking the breeze from coming (remember the broken AC...and this is a hot August afternoon) but upon telling our server he felt dismissed. He was told that the AC was broken and supposedly to be fixed soon, but she didn't acknowledge his suggestion to move the vehicle to let some air in--it's disappointing that when a customer that takes the time to provide genuine feedback to be left feeling dismissed instead of appreciation for the feedback. I feel bad for whomever may have dined after us as it was mighty warm in there...

We had to come to the Aiea location since they served hot food as well. My hubby and I came here…read moreThursday Evening. Laid back atmosphere with seating inside and outside. Ladies in the counter were very friendly. We ordered 4 different types of hot taco. -fish taco - 10/10 - 4 beer battered fish with slaw and it was freaking delicious! The batter was so crunchy and the fish was so moist. A must have! -taco Cabo- 10/10 - had 3 huge shrimp and steak. Was hearty and flavorful! It was very yummy! A must have! -Taco Chando - 11/10 - this was so out of this world! Never had a jalapeno popper fish taco in my life! Omg it was so amazingly delicious that we were in awe!!! This is the true taco that you must try or have!!! You will not regret it! - steak tacos - 10/10 - the steak was perfectly executed and a traditional taco. Great way to end the meal!!! This is the place to be if you visit Oahu!!! If I could, I would eat there every night, if we lived here.

Bought the blue crab dip, ceviche 16oz, and extra tostadas…read more I'm glad I got to try their ceviche...it had good flavor, but I wouldn't order it again. 7/10 The blue crab dip was all right, wouldn't order it again. 5/10 Tostadas were fresh and crunchy. 8.5/10 It's pretty busy there so I would say to place an online order at least 20 mins before you get there. Even though I arrived after the ready/prepared pick up time, I still had to wait 10 more minutes because they still had to put the order together. The price is quite steep, so again...glad I tried here but I won't be a returning customer.
