Dos Jefes is the top taco food truck on the island. Their tacos are delicious and flavorful. My favorite taco is the pork street taco and their pork birria. Service : 5/5 Food : 5/5 Price : 5/5 Can't wait for them to open their own restaurant in town.

My West Coast friends say that the most delicious tacos come from trucks. Dos Jefes schooled me on…read morethis urban legend in the best possible way. Stumbled across this meals-on-wheels phenomena when picnicking with the pup at Triangle Park. We were intrigued by the intense amount of interest this sticker-filled truck brought with it. No sooner had they parked before a line started forming. Since we already had our bentos, we had to wait for another weekend to see what the buzz was about. Lucky for us, they are regularly there on Saturdays (except if they have a catering gig). So we confirmed their location on Insta, packed up our pup and picnic blanket, and joined the line for some street tacos. I love when a place does one thing and does it mind-blowingly well. That's what you can expect from Dos Jefes--tacos that will blow your mind and your taste buds! Hubby ordered the surf and turf birria taco. Juicy shredded beef, succulent shrimp, and crispy cheese sandwiched between a warm, grilled tortilla. Served with a rich dipping sauce--because it is a birria, after all. You get two per order and it was more than enough to satisfy the hubby's appetite. I don't eat meat, so the cauliflower tacos called my name. Since I've had them, they call me in my sleep sometimes beckoning me back to their bright, savory goodness. Seriously, this taco hits ALL the notes in texture and taste. I do eat seafood, so I also tried a shrimp taco with the cauliflower taco sauce because I don't do dairy. I'm a complicated eater, I know. But, Dos Jefes makes each taco to order, so they can adjust to dietary preferences. And since they are making tacos to order, don't expect fast food. This is NOT that restaurant with a bell on it! Its Jefe's slaving over a grill and putting lots of care into the product they are putting out. You can tell from the first bite to the last lick of your fingers. Plus, Triangle Park is usually cool and breezy with lots of shade so it's a great place to wait for your plate. Most customers took their order to go. But we enjoyed our tacos under the monkey pod tree. Triangle Park is a fantastic spot to enjoy some terrific tacos on a Saturday. There's lots of free parking, open space, fresh air, and great trees. Pup especially loved it and even got to taste a bit of birria. She gave it two barks up! When we left, we got a chance to chat with Matt. He owns and runs the truck with 'the other Jefe' Collin. Seems like a stellar dude who's passionate not just about what they are serving but the people who are enjoying their tacos. Dos Jefes - Two dudes, one truck, many happy customers, including us! See you guys at the park again soon! Highly recommend you give them a try. They are also downtown on Thursdays if you're in the area. Check them out @dosjefes808 for their weekly schedule. Because the best tacos come from a truck...

Wow. My bf and I were so amazed by their food. We didn't…read moreread any reviews and just happened to stumble upon their location while hunting for dinner amongst the other eateries in the food court. I was craving an elote as well so grabbed one of those. My bf got their steak chimichanga, and I wanted to try something different so I chose their famous flauta w/ al pastor (this was one of the recommendations from the cashier ) Starting with the elote. Good taste, simple seasonings. Nothing that stood out, but it helped with my elote cravings- wish the corn had more crunch to it, but was alright. My boyfriend thought his chimichanga tasted good very girthy but seemed short (length-wise). He liked the meat/rice ratio inside the chimichanga. I absolutely loved the famous flauta and would definitely get it again! I loved that the sides of my tortilla were slightly fried to add texture. The sauce topping had diced onions which I absolutely loved! My boyfriend and I really enjoyed the Mexican rice a lot! Probably had the most flavor in any Mexican rice we had! We were happy that our cashier recommended Al pastor as their meat of choice because I think my bf and I will now be asking for it at every Mexican restaurant we go to! We also had their ube horchata and that was super yummy! Would definitely come here again! We're actually already talking about when we'd go back for another meal already!

Secondary one is always needed to catch fallout thereby creating another taco. Ordered 3 el pastor tacos + ube horchata. Had a small wait time as there were other orders before mine. . Conveniently and strategically located within Midtown Eats, you can enjoy foods from any and all vendors indoors in the comfort of AC. Here, it's "city" lively and there's a bar should you desire pairing a Taco Tuesday w/ happy hour. salud!

I am originally from California so very picky about Mexican food. This place exceeded expectations!…read more I ordered bean and cheese tacos (trust me on these), beef enchiladas with mole sauce, posole and chips and salsa. You can tell everything is house-made, I think even the tortillas are. The salsa taste like it was made with love. The real star of the show was the refried beans (seriously) and the mole enchiladas. Also, the price for the amount of food you get is amazing for Hawaii! Will definitely be coming back to this place! Just be aware, they are only takeout and delivery, no dine-in. And they do not have their own parking lot so I recommend finding street parking on piikoi or one of the side streets. Absolutely worth the pain of finding street parking, the food hits that craving for authentic Mexican COMFORT food.

Taco Salad Crispy tortilla bowl loaded with fresh greens, seasoned ground beef, cheese, tomatoes, guac, and sour cream. Portions were generous and tasty, though the dressing could've used a bit more zing for perfection. Nachos Hearty pile of chips topped with beef, beans, melted cheese, jalapeños, and house salsa. Mostly crisp and flavorful, but a few soggy spots from the toppings--still very satisfying Chicken Soup Comforting broth with shredded chicken, rice, cilantro, and a clean taste. Good for a quick warm-up, just wished for a touch more seasoning to elevate it. Convenient Ala Moana location, friendly service, and fair prices. Worth a visit, but room for small tweaks--I'll return!

Dinner in Kaka'ako, Honolulu, Hawaii…read more.. This food truck experience reminds me of the times my Los Angeles friends and I stood on the sidewalks and ate tacos in the chilly weather... brrr!!! Eating tacos in Honolulu is much better because of the weather. Even though it's January, we have wonderful 70°F temperature at 8pm! ********** Located at Howzit Brewery, Taco Invader is currently open on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesday, and select Fridays. Check their Instagram page for the exact schedule and specials. I was fortunate to visit on Taco Tuesday when tacos are only $3.50. I got the Adobada (marinated pork) on a 6 inch corn tortilla which was stuffed! I especially liked the grilled, smokey flavor and pickled veggie topping! Super delicious! I also got a watermelon agua fresca because the horchata was sold out. Another item that was sold out was the vegan chorizo Taco made from mushrooms! I'll have to return for it and also get the carne asada and chicken tacos next time! Note: there's indoor, open-air seating as well as outdoor picnic table style seats. I started out at the picnic tables, but it was too dark to take photos. I moved indoors, but it was crowded and noisy at first. Later, some people left and I got a seat by the entrance. It was a bit warm, so I sat near the fan. Service is very friendly and helpful! When my order was taken, I was asked my name so that they could call out when my orderwas ready. I said, "Hello Kitty". The two guys smiled and laughed. They didn't get to call out "Hello Kitty" because they brought my meal to me!!! Thank you! When I was leaving, they said, "Thank you, Hello Kitty!" Haha! You're very welcome! See you soon! P.S. this business started in October 2024. It used to have long lines with maybe 30 people... uhg! I'm glad that I didn't have a wait like that!

The food tasted fresh, authentic, and you can really tell it's made with a lot of love and care. I also tried elote for the very first time and absolutely loved it! If you order it, squeeze the lime over it first, then mix it up really well so all those flavors come together -- so good! The whole experience was delicious, and I'm already looking forward to going back. Next on my list is one of their burritos! So happy to support a local family business serving really good food. Highly recommend giving Lahaina Tacos a try! And Pedro is hilarious!

Service was good and they have a nice salsa counter you can choose what and amounts you want. When it comes to the food, I only tried their chili relleno which I don't get often so it's a limited perspective, and unfortunately, I was not impressed. Not very favorable and since I'm not a black bean fan, I got double rice. Sadly, all of it was a little bland. Even the salsa I took was not big flavors. Mostly just heat slices that didn't add flavor. Probably won't come back here anything soon.

Then our waiter walks us to our car with an umbrella making sure my baby and I got into our car safely and dry. I also want to mention that the food is great and the prices aren't bad! What my family really appreciated was the overall experience and kindness we received from everyone there. Very genuine. It definitely made our day/night. I didn't catch their names but they were working on August 15th. Will be dining in more!
