A fantastic place to stop for some delicious tacos. The staff is very friendly and the service is really quick. The food was incredible! Some of the best tacos I have ever had. If you are in the area, Paco's Tacos is a must!

I live in the area and ALWAYS go for taco Tuesday, today i went and got a taco plate and there was no extra taco. I went to ask if they still did taco Tuesday and the woman at the front said yes, then I asked where the extra taco is, then she started to argue with me so i walked away. Sad day in Kilauea.

There isn't much of a vegan selection. I got a dairy free nopal burrito. Albeit small, but super tasty. My partner got fish tacos that she liked very much. Much better than we expected.

We were very disappointed with our food here, especially considering the prices. Additionally, it came out lukewarm yet my husband and I were the only ones there.

Really a good plate of food. I liked it, ate it all, and came back again.

The tacos are only ok, but much more importantly this business was fined $62k for withholding overtime pay and for tip theft from their workers. $18k in tips alone were stolen. We do not support businesses that steal from their employees, and I hope you won't, either. It's hard enough to make ends meet for workers on this island.

Service especially communication with patrons specifically taking orders needs big improvements

In Kauai, finding a place for Mexican food was unexpected. Food & service was fair but the highlight of this particular Paco Taco was the very laid- back tabby cat completely oblivious to the rooster and hen strolling by its nose.

The sign says authentic , I would beg to differ I asked if the Carne asada burrito had rice and beans in it, because the menu just said meat, pico and guac salsa and they said no. Seriously? That's basically just a big taco! We got the fish taco and carne asada taco, and it was lack luster.
People are nice, place was clean and cute, salsas were good. The tortillas were fairly dry and bland. We are from California so likely just spoiled with our tortillas and tacos. The slaw on the fish tacos was pretty good but at least for us the fish was just ok, and the chicken was dry and kinda ok. Not our favorite, but that’s just us.

I work in princeville, but I live in Kapaa, so when I am too lazy to make dinner I'll come here for tacos. To be honest, this Paco's Tacos location is a lot better than the other ones on the island. They are fast with orders (I usually all ahead and they will be ready by the time I reach Kilauea). I get the al pastor tacos, beans, and rice. They taste great!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Carne asada tacos were good. Decent size but a little pricey. Had a cool island atmosphere but not tidy. No bathroom. Kinda a eat and run experience that could use some improvements but overall was good.
