Great place with a very nice view Waikiki main area. The drinks are great and the food was very good for what it is.Out of everything we ordered the TOP choice and clear winner was their empanadas (loved them) with the Carnitas plate in second place as it was also very good. Was not fan of their flan as i personally found it lacking in flavor.The service was good with decent service times for how full they were. Recommend if you are looking for a good place to start Friday night.

Great tacos, they tasted really nice. However way too expensive, charging 16 dollars (tax included) for three small tacos is a bit much when an adult typically need 6 to get anywhere close to full. Pleasent staff and a nice

Food was great, drinks were great. Our server/bartender Chinita probably gave the best service I’ve had in Hawaii.

Ok place. Definitely not authentic Mexican food. I forgot to take pic of everything. The queso birria tacos were great. The carne asada tacos were rough. Drinks were watered down! Our server Nathan was great! It turned into a club at 9pm.

What an amazing night. We went for salsa night. I will say the drink prices are outrageous. $16 each. But typical Waikiki. I very much love that everyone was dancing. It would be cool if there were lessons. I love that the music became more mainstream as the night went on. Great outdoor

This is a hidden gem. Quiet earlier in the evening. Still a nice ambiance. I had the chicken enchilada and it was absolutely fantastic. The honey had the Santa Fe Salad and it was awesome as well.The drinks were great and specials were nice too.Definitely will be back.

Went here with my toddler and husband and had a great time. They were accommodating to my kiddo’s food allergies and everyone enjoyed their meal. The service was attentive, we enjoyed the views and there was lots of space for my little boy to run around. Would go again!

The worst nightclub I've been to in Honolulu. Granted, it has nice vibes and I was really enjoying myself with my friends for our mutual friend's birthday celebration. However, I pulled out my puffbar and hit it once and was immediately escorted out to the street for breaking a no-vape policy I was never made aware of. The staff member was incredibly rude when I said it wouldn't happen again and seemed as if he was letting some personal anger get the best of him. Loved the spot until I didn't. I wish it had gone better because it would deserve 5 stars if not. I understand a no smoking/vaping policy (even if its a rooftop bar) but that needs to be clear and told before entering to avoid this sitaution.

I stopped in a for a late-night dinner while vacationing in Waikiki. It was pretty quiet on Super Bowl Sunday, since this bar doesn't have live TV. My friend and I were greeted by a very friendly and personable server right after being sat. Fancier Mexican spots are usually a hit or miss for me; I was a bit skeptical despite the menu looking promising. We ordered a number of items to try since we were super hungry. It was a good opportunity to try a variety of items. The server convinced us to try their Chips and Salsa trio; we were pleasantly surprised that each salsa was very fresh and flavorful. The birria meat in the Beef Empanadas was spiced perfectly. Every part of the appetizer was delicious. The Quesabirria entree we ordered consisted of three beef birria tacos. We enjoyed this entree so much that we ordered a second order of it. We chose a Carne Asada filling for the Buho Burrito and also opted in for a "wet" burrito (soaked in a red sauce). It was a decent burrito, but we found the red sauce overtook a lot of the other flavors in the dish. We also tried a non-alcoholic Cucumber Fresca that accompanied the meal very well. Dinner at Buho definitely exceeded our expectations. Each dish combined great quality and flavor. Our server did a great job checking on us and making conversation throughout our meal. I can honestly say this was one of the best meals I've had in Hawaii.

Went for a date night, 6:30PM on a February night. We had Winter as a waitress. We had a mai tai, the smoky Cadillac margarita, the corn queso fundito, the quesabirria, chicken quesadillas, and churros with ice cream. The food and drinks were tasty, and the service was great.

Just ignored our table. We had our card on the bill for 20 min before they came and picked it up. Dishonest waiter we saw him take the bill and rewrite tip. Portions were so small, it was a SCAM! Security grabbed my friends hand and pulled her forward for no reason?!? VERY VIOLENT STAFF!

Chinita is my fav bartender. She is so helpful and makes the best drinks. If you come here make sure to ask for her!!!! Very satisfied with my visits because of her!
