Amazing food, all of the tacos and the meat was delicious. Our waiter offered up fantastic drink recommendations and suggestions throughout the evening and was even very kind with our toddler. I wish I had caught our waiter's name. Anyway, fantastic evening, thank you!!

This place felt soooooo comfortable. The tacos were ALL out of this world! Barbacoa, carnitas & Baja fish tacos were our favorite. I loved the design & the style of the place. A hidden gem of Honolulu!

Good local bar with very good tacos and a variety if Mexican sides.

Sweetest bartender. The mushroom taco is good but the barbacoa is unreal. The salsa roja has perfect heat and the margaritas tasty. Taco Tuesday is alive in Chinatown Honolulu!

Good professional servers with fairly priced great food / cocktails in a historic location. The only thing mo’betta would be to move the tv monitor away from such a lovely back bar layout. (Let the Olive Garden etc have the sports theme…plus seemed to be providing the staff greater entertainment than the patrons)

Pretty good food and a decent house margarita. The Tree Hunger plate was good.
Edit: recently changed their menu. Compare for yourself in the pictures.

Brisket was awesome. Draft beers were nice. Great service and thoughtful recommendations by the employees. Definitely would recommend outside seating.

Both times I’ve been here, it has been a beautiful experience. The service and the food is absolutely incredible! I really enjoyed my mahi-mahi bowl with the house margarita (:
I will for sure be coming back here with my boyfriend to try out their tequila flight (:
Mahalo for great service ❤️

Husband and I really enjoyed our lunch here! We each had a baja fish taco that we both devoured. We also shared a portion of nachos with carne asada as well as a bowl of the street corn and those two were similarly tasty. We split a Chris Kattan cocktail between us both and it was both pretty and delicious. Service was especially kind and thoughtful. Highly recommend and would come back in the future!

What bad can honestly be said about this place? Could you say the ambience is whack? I would say definitely not! It has a Portland bar kind of vibe which is interesting to find here on Oahu. Music was perfect mixing up some local radio tunes with a mix of other great tunes. Didn't hear one bad song!
Could you say the service sucked? Not from our experience! We absolutely loved our bartender (Clarissa) and the bar back was Johnny on the spot when it came to bringing us our food and clearing our plates and empty glasses. Our bartender always had an eye on our beers, checking in at the perfect time to refill us.
Could you say the food was garbage? I surely would disagree! I tried 5x of their tacos and every single one was absolutely delicious jam packed with flavor!! The deconstructed elote aka Mexican corn was bomb.com! Saw a couple next to us that got the corn and chips w/guacamole and used chips for the corn too. Touche neighbor and great thinking. Saving that trick for our next visit. We have tried to find GOOD tasting Mexican on the island since moving here in April and this is the 2nd place we've found w/ Taqueria La Marea being the other and a MUST TRY if you have not yet! Just beware of the lack of hours/days they are open.
Is pricing your issue? Not when it comes to drinks! A pitcher of Pacifico for $11?! Yes please! Tecate can for $4? Don't mind if I get 2x! And the food pricing? ALL reasonably priced especially considering its in Chinatown. $3.50 for a street taco is decent considering how dang tasty it is! The bowl of Mexican corn was deceiving or maybe after the 5th taco I was just that full?
I typically share pix of our food but my phone died right when we got seated. They are 110% doing VAX checks and masks are required to enter and while not eating/drinking. No complaints here about them enforcing that. Parking may be the only thing you could complain about just because they are in Chinatown so street parking is your option. That or biking there or something. Anyways we will 110% be back to grub and are telling all of our friends about this place!
