I traveled over 7000 miles for these tacos . They did not dissappoint. Whatever you get can't possibly go wrong. They're huge, they're flavorful, they're the best on the island . Mind explosion.

Karen Yuen

We had the taco salads - one with Kalia Pork , the "island favorite," and one with Cajun Ahi . They don't give you much of the protein. The ahi was done in 2 bites so I gave my boyfriend some of my pork

Beware Taco is a huge portion . I liked the Kalua pork much better than the wasabi tuna . (The tuna had a lot of mayo and I'm not a huge mayo fan.) Salsa and cinnamon chips are delish!

Diana DJ

Cajun mahi mahi and kalua pork tacos were delicious ???? i only wish I had a bigger stomach to sample the other tacos !

Amy

Seriously one of the best meals I've had on the island . This is my third trip back for their tacos . Ahi Wasabi taco and Cajun mahi tacos are absolutely amazing. Service is fantastic. Prices are good.

Erica Dillard

Best tacos I've had on the island . The mahi mahi and the ahi tacos were amazing!!! So full of flavor!

Glen Murphy

The seared ahi wasabi tuna taco remains the best fish taco I've ever eaten by a wide margin; I've been spending way too much time attempting to recreate it at home.

Kandy Dicken

Excellent mahi mahi Cajun fish tacos ! If your choosing between this and the Shrimp Station, this is a clear winner.

Eric Venker

Kalua pork taco was awesome. One was enough for lunch . Wasabi ahi wasn't amazing, but the Cajun mahi mahi was very nice.

Erika Robbins

The Kalua Pork taco is fantastic. Tacos are large and come with chips and salsa , so one per person is plenty.

Joe D

1 taco is plenty. The fried chips are transcendent. Classic is ????

Amy

I've had another year since my last tip to try other fish tacos . The Seared Wasabi Ahi are still my absolute favorite anywhere!

Q Lam

Fish tacos are big. Can definitely eat one with a side and be full. Delicious.

Kira Fisher

Yes- the wasabi ahi taco is as good as everyone says it. Cheese quesadilla also textbook as well !

Jenna Friedman

Mahi mahi taco ! Gluten free corn tortillas available

Alexander Olcott

The Cajun Ahi taco is amazing! Like others have said, the tacos are large so one is probably all you need.

Dan

The ahi tuna burrito is amazing

Tim Deng

It’s tacos ! As good as you can get on this island probably

Cajun Mahi , and pork tacos were great. Taco comes with chips and salsa

Stephen Fixter

Awesome pork tacos and shrimp ones

Vivian Bakal

Don't be scared of the wasabi ahi ! Great flavor and not at all spicy ! Delish.

David Tannenbaum

Delish, great value , and super friendly staff . Too bad they're not open for dinner or else we'd be here all day long.

Nicole K

Seasoned Mahi Mahi taco and Kalua Pork taco were delicious.

Jessica Tarleton

Philip Hite

Shrimp tacos are the BOMB!

Carin Overturf

Cajun ahi taco was amazing!

Patrick Haley

The meal portions were huge, but I feel like the tacos were missing something.

Michael Lyons

Kalua pork and wasabi ahi tacos are insane.

Ardyss

More like an unrolled burrito than a taco . Flour tortillas vs corn , ingredients jumbled vs layers, not all ingredients included... and service very rude. Kalau Pig tasted good but wouldn't come again.

Don (wilytongue) Shandor JR

I suggest you get here when they are not real busy. They can be real busy at times.

Billy Powell

Best fish taco I've ever had! The seared ahi wasabi tuna taco is the bomb!

Shalini Gujavarty

Get the Ahi Wasabi taco--2 is too many

Eric Semling

Delicious Kalua Pork Tacos !

Helen Nayfeld-Worden

Shrimp taco is life-affirming.

Nick Amundson

Kahula Pork is your best bet if you're not into seafood ! so good!!

Chad Allen

Ahi taco is awesome. And big - just get one unless you're super hungry.

Eric H

Can't go wrong with Seared Ahi Canjun Taco or Seared Ahi Wasabe Taco !

Emma Middlebrook

I'm so confused by these reviews. I can say they were the worst taco's I've ever had. The wasabi ahi was drowned in mayo and the pork was flavorless.

Nathaniel Stott

The wasabi tacos are ono!

Jeremy Malecha

Best fish tacos this far from mexico. Rivals the ones in San Diego

Natalie Ceperley
