I ordered two chicken and steak taco with rice and it took a little longer than normal which I was understanding of. But after paying over $17 for two pretty average tacos and rice they lady said I usually charge for plastic forks but in your case I won't. Charge for plastic forks I literally just paid over $17 for tacos and you wanna get me for a few cent fork wow never coming here again ever. I understand living in Hawaii you are pretty much guaranteed overpriced average Mexican at most places but this place is taking greed to another level. What's next are you gonna charge me for a single napkin or the tin foil you put my tacos in.Gonna be making my own tacos from now on with better quality meat at a much cheaper price and my own dang metal forks lol

Some of the best Mexican I’ve had on island thus far. Really small place with limited parking since it’s next to Aiea bowl but cute interior and friendly service. Margaritas were good, a little sweet. Carnitas plate was large and very fresh. Same with birria tacos.

First off, the direction Google gives you are wrong. So it is tricky to find. It's a small business and decorated cute. This food is what I would consider tex mex so not authentic. Be careful with the menu, some of the items read differently then what you actually get, so ask the server before you order. The menu it's self doesn't have any prices. You have to scan the qr code to get the prices. My husband ended up speaking in Spanish to our waitress to ask about what we were ordering. The way our items, that we ordered read in English on the menu, is NOT what she was explaining to my husband in Spanish. Waitress was polite and respectful. The food was not good for any of us except our 7 year old. I personally would not come back here or recommend it here to eat, but that's just my opinion.

The food never disappoints, one of the best Latino food options on the island. Seating is limited and parking can be hard to find this place is nestled next to Aiea bowl. It’s worth the drive!Parking: Highly contested stalls there is a bowling alley

Very inattentive server. Got the order wrong. Waited for everything while she played on her phone. Food was rather bland. Had to ask for normal condiments, like hot sauce.

10/10 enchiladas, chile rellenos, and nachos. Since moving away from the Mexican border, I've rarely found Mexican food that matches what you can get in Chihuahua, Mexico. The food at this restaurant was just as good. The green sauce is PERFECT. If you want authentic Mexican, check this place out.

From Texas, this was different. I had the Flautas, and my husband had the Cheese enchiladas. Definitely not Tex-Mex, but it was good and would eat there again.

Not my favorite Mexican place on island but I will say the service was absolutely amazing. I think that they did a great job of giving me recommendations and the only reason I don't think it was the best is lack of flavor in my

Our server was very courteous, her timing was a little off, but it was pretty busy. It's a comfortable and casual atmosphere. The music was a little loud, so had to speak loudly, but not "yell", to have a conversation. The food was very tasty and I would definitely recommend it and go there againParking: It can get tight because of the bowling alley and other eateries in the immediate area
