I came here on a Tuesday with my partner. He is very particular about his Hispanic food so we…read moredecided to try this spot out as it was recommended by many. It is a small to mid sized spot, but still has a good amount of seating. Some window bar seats, and then about 6 tables with chairs and booth seats. The service style is similar to a take out spot (so very minimal), they do ask if you're dining in or taking out, but it seems like you order, seat yourself, and pick up your own food. They would wipe your table down per your request though. Also to note, they have a $3 taco Tuesday deal but it is ONLY for specific tacos AND only during specific hours on Tuesday. We weren't specifically going for the deal so it didn't matter to us, but manage your expectations if you were looking for a deal (esp since some of their tacos are quite pricey) We ordered: * Steak Quesadilla: 7.6/10 This was good, decently cheesy and the carne asada was pretty flavorful as well. * Carne Asada Taco: 7.2/10 Since it's the same steak as the quesadilla it was pretty good as well. I feel like the carne asada has more Asian flavors and spices than Hispanic. It was good regardless. * Carnitas Taco: 7/10 This was good too, similar to kalua pork. * Baja Fish Taco: 8.3/10 This was pretty solid. The fish tasted like it was good quality and the aioli (same as the camarones) was good pairing with the taco * Camarones Taco: 8.1/10 I liked this quite a lot, the cheese skirt brought a nice textual and flavor contrast to the rest of the taco, I also liked the aioli paired with it. If it had slightly more shrimp it would be even better * Horchata: 6/10, this was okay, kind of grainy. I enjoyed everything, my partner on the other hand thought most of the things were just okay. The only thing he really liked was the baja one. Also we would both note that instead of being topped with cilantro and onions, all the tacos had cabbage on top instead? (some had pico with it, some had a little bit of onion). I wouldn't mind coming back but I think my partner would rather not.

Steak was good but I think it's only the 3rd time ever eating a steak taco just personal preference rather have chicken or pork. Fish taco was good had a little spice to it.

With Hawaii having such a diverse population, Aloha Mamacita gives so many options. The bao buns even add a touch of Chinese. Their drink menu has a lot of sweet treats... I love the Aloha Punch. For the month of October, their bar features Halloween themed cocktails. Not to mention, the place looks like a haunted house. Very festive! Service was amazing with drinks brought straight to the table... or you can walk up to the bar and order. Don't forget to scan the parking QR code for validation!

We were mesmorized by the flashing cubes, gummy eye balls and gummy snakes that came in a cauldron mug. We got the birria taco set with consomme. We were disappointed that they no longer do table service and they no longer have the aloha puffy desserts They just have the banana puddings. I did get the ube horchata and that wasn't as good as it used to be. It's starting to loose it's shine. I'm a little disappointed that they're not trying as hard as they could. It had so much potential. When we first got there, it was us and only 2 staff members. I have a cane. I asked if they can help me. Reluctantly, she wanted to help. The bartender said we had to come up and order too. My friend just wanted a skinny girl margarita and they wouldn't budge. My friend said that it was 1 and done and never coming back. We both live here on Oahu. I've been coming here since they opened up as a take out window. On Halloween, they will collab with the row bar. It's another option for Halloween fun!

The owner, Thyda, and the other two men working with her were such amazing hosts and so hospitable! My daughter and me walked over from Whole Foods and ordered a carne asada burrito ($16) and a chicken quesadilla ($10). We ordered it to go, but got to sit down with others enjoying their food, talk story with the owners, and meet a cutie pup named Whaler who just roamed around like their little mascot. We could've sat there and talked all day with them but we needed to get that food home so we could tear into to. The bag was heavy lol The carne asada burrito was so big and hefty, and I could only finish 2/3 of it, and to be honest, going to finish it after I finish this review. The meat is well seasoned and the ratio of the fillings to meat and tortilla were perfect. My daughter LOVED her chicken quesadilla and that was definitely a winner too. The meat was seasoned so good and for the price was so good. Everything was just such a win today with food after coming to them. Do yourself a favor and try anything from them, because I guarantee it will be great!
