    Got the burrito. Couldn't have been more happy. Don't judge a book by its cover. This is a small taco truck but he's organized and served quite a few people while I was there.

    A star for being VEGAN A star for being OPEN LATE A star for being on UBER The spicy sauce is inFact spicy. That taco was gone in two bites. I ate ate ate ate it up!!! I got a taco and beans and after delivery fees and tip it was 40$. That's steep I did get guc, sour cream & spicy sauce and those should be available as cheap (smaller) addons. They aren't. This is WASTEFUL. I have a bunch left over and nothing to do with it. The beans are advertised as "honestly the best" you've had, and they honestly aren't. They're a bit dry. Taco and beans were cold. The sour cream has a weird aftertaste. Guc is not so yummy either. I only tasted a touch as it had cilantro and I struggle to digest cilantro. They didn't have any chips for sale. This would cost you about 2$ to make at home. But that's not including the containers, napkins and utensils. TO THE OWNERS: adjust entrees to have .25¢ addons. Add the word "vegan" to the title of some items, because you don't come up as a VEGAN option on Uber, I just stumbled on you. Absolutely glad I did, too. Offer fresh avocado, bc not everyone can digest cilantro Yes. I'd come back. The taco was good. That spicy sauce was banggin. I mean, I cleaned my plate.... didn't I?

    Located down the alley directly across from Kelley Oneil's pub! We had a hard time finding it at first just type in Kelley Oneil's or the Pupu House if you need help finding it. We ordered the nachos and the Crunchwrap and we ordered them spicy . When they say spicy they are not joking it was fire but delicious. We had no idea this was vegan even after finishing our food until reading about it online ! Tasted amazing and surprised us. It was pretty busy and there were about 5 people waiting but the food is worth the wait. Also open til 4am ! Check it out

    happened upon this little spot on a drunken night in Waikiki across the st from Kelley O'Briens bar at like 3 am. Met one of the owners, Tanya is his wife and they are from East coast (cuz had a Baltimore accent from the heavens)! Lots of heart, and lots of patience for the drunk and hungry crowds. Food was incredible, it's literally the best thing to find on a night like that night. Something to sober up with and still be taking care of your body and tastebuds. I almost got the nachos and I'm kicking myself for not after have the house tacos. I don't remember which salsa is which. I asked them to make it spicy and they obliged! Packed with flavor, heat, and authenticity please give them a try! I'd hate to not find them the next time I make it to town.

    We passed by this little truck a few times until one day we decided to give it a try. I was pleasantly surprised to know that their menu is fully vegan. I got three tacos with mild sauce. I really liked the tortilla and the "meat" inside. I do feel that three tacos did not fill me up. I was happy to give it a try and they tasted delicious. However, I would love to see more "meat" in the tacos :) The guy that helped us out was very friendly. They open from around 10pm to 4am, which is great for anyone who might be tipsy and hungry late at night.

    Burrito and Chrunchywrap

    Such an amazing experience. First let's talk about the customer service. Top notch. Forest and Tanja are great people. Next, the flavors are phenomenal. Both rices are cooked to perfection without being soggy, which is difficult to do. P.s. they are plant based! Absolutely amazing. The flavor of the spicy sauce is so good. If you are spice sensitive go for the milder version. 5 stars, go here. If you are Vegan or Plant based there is no Mexican style food on this island that compares and this competes with any of the expensive plant based food on the island.

    I was really let down by the food here. $20 for a Crunchwrap and $16 for a scoop of rice and beans?!? The taste was just ok.

It was simple, comforting, and absolutely delicious. My son, who's from California and very serious about his Mexican food, said it was the best bean and cheese burrito he's ever had--which is definitely saying something! The portions are generous, so you definitely get your money's worth, and the spicy sauce has the perfect kick with amazing flavor that takes everything to the next level. If you're craving satisfying, authentic-tasting Mexican food, this place is a must. We'll definitely be back!

The crew inside was welcoming, quick, and the meat was on point. They even came outside to check on us. My son is a picky little dude and started picking onions off his chicken quesadilla. I told him to speak up. The guy smiled, said he had it, and brought out a fresh one with no onions. My son crushed it and even used their mild salsa, which is wild because he thinks everything is spicy. My burrito had great flavor and the asada was legit. I even called home for extra orders so everyone could try it. They loved it too. This spot isn't in our usual area, but I'm glad we found it because it's hard to find solid burritos in Hawaii.

Mexican sounded good to everyone so we picked this spot and we're all very happy we did. Our server was kind and attentive. The place was lovely and decorated with just the amount of fun you expect. Some great photo ops in there. He even told us they were having a mariachi band tomorrow and invited us to come back. The food from the start with nachos and salsa to the end with tres leches was all delicious. I ordered the chorizo queso and it was fantastic. My son ordered the guacamole and it was so fresh and limey. Also delicious. My grandkids shared a quesadilla which was definitely large enough to do so with. My oldest grandson ordered a torte and he loved it. Also a generous portion. My son and I both ordered the grande burrito. He got his wet and I didn't.

It took a while to order and to get her attention throughout our time there, but we eventually received everything we ordered. The birria was very tasty, with juicy meat and a crispy shell. The Margarita flights were small, mini tastings which left us wanting more (and yes, we did order more). Regarding the tres leches, it's not the greatest we've ever had but not the worst.
