About this business

Located in the small and popular Kinipopo Shopping Center in Wailua, this small taco hotspot is a popular spot for area locals and island visitors who seek something inexpensive and tasty.

Not close to Authentic whatsoever. Chips were stale. My friend ordered enchiladas, tasted as if they came out microwave, not to mention they were tiny and not filling. My husband ordered the Shrimp diabla, 5 shrimp for 20$. When we asked for something more filling, despite not even biting into the food yet, we were told that since it was cooked, we were unable to return it for another dish and we would be charged for the new dish. Worst customer service we've experienced by far. Will not be returning.

The food is marvelous here, but equally as wonderful are the owners Monico and Kathleen. They treat their customers like family. And they cook for them the same way. I had Seafood Enchiladas and my wife had Shrimp Enchiladas. Both the red and green sauces are amazing. All of the seafood is cooked perfectly and not over seasoned so you actually taste the meat. The beans are the best I've had and the rice is light and fluffy and full of flavor. And the guacamole is out of site! If you want a great Mexican meal on Kauai then PL... read more
