6 Best Mexican Restaurants near Kapolei

“This place had amazing food! The wet burrito was to die for! Darle was our server, and he was awesome and totally cool to talk to! We liked it so much we went back again the next evening and had the Diablo tacos! Also, very tasty! Again, Darle was there but working at the bar. Mahalo, for some great memories!- That one armed guy!“

“El Mariachi Restaurant in Kapolei is awesome. The service is impeccable, the authentic mexican food delicious! The flan dessert is something to talk home to mother about, so authentic, smooth & creamy!! Don't forget to have a drink of Horchata! Love the ambience of this restaurant! So good!! Stop by and say hello to the friendly proprietor, Miguel. He speaks to you as if you are family!“

“We make the drive from Windward side because the food is consistently delicious and fresh, and the service is always friendly with a smile. Even when the food is great, I will skip a place with bad service. After all, who needs that? But these three young folks are friendly and respectful and take pride on serving good food. Impressive.“

“This was a good option for a quick dinner when getting in late from the airport. We were within walking distance after a very long flight and wanted a good, solid, dinner. The chips and salsa were complimentary and decent. I liked the salsa, but the chips were just average. Tasted a little on the stale side to me. However, the food makes up for the chips. The biche Quesadilla was really good! Delicious tasting and not crispy. It was buttery soft like I like it. The quesadilla was cheesy and crispy on the outside. It was actually really cheesy like you would expect compared to some that are more soft taco like with a hint of cheese. It was a little loud in the restaurant because of the bar, but not loud enough that I couldn't enjoy my meal. The waitress was on top of it, refilling drinks and salsa. Very polite too! The menu was not overly large. The only appetizers were queso or guacamole. The drink menu was large though, so if you're looking for fruity drinks that is a plus. Overall, I'd go back again if I wanted something good and somewhat quick.“

“The flavor was so good. Most carne asada fries are mushy or super greasy but these weren't at all. Flavorful and with refreshing toppings. The only thing is the fries were way too salty the last time I went. Friendly service and doesn't take too long to get your food.“

“The most slept on Mexican place on Oahu periodt. El ranch who? Paco’s place has food priced with the flavor out of this world. I’m a die hard fan and it breaks my heart to see people drive passed and miss out on the charismatic staff, amazing deals, and drinks fit for you king/queen! Never been disappointed and stop keeping yourself from happiness!“
