Home made pork tamale was EXCELLENT! Lots of meat and very tasty. I didn’t prefer the type of cheese they used for the cheese enchilada but the red sauce was very good. Salsa was very good but and extra costs more. I would have liked to try their chicken chile relleno—looked delicious. Chips weren’t as crunchy as I prefer. I will go back to try some other things than the cheese enchilada.

Most delicious Mexican food we have found on the island so far! Left this place STUFFED and it was just what we needed! The waitress was sooo sweet and accommodating. The enchiladas were amazing! 10/10 would go back 🙂

We live on the windward side and El Mariachi has been our local go-to spot for Mex. So when we were in Kapolei for an appointment, we thought we’d try out the location there. Nice and clean interiors. We were stoked to see Chef Miguel cooking there, he used to be at the Kaneohe location when it first opened. He did our chicken enchiladas and California burrito (the one with fries inside) just right.

Honestly not sure why this place is only 4 stars.. it deserves 5 stars for me! We ordered the Flautas, burrito, & kids taco. The carne from the burrito is so flavorful and goes well with the nice roasted flavor of the sauce. My Flauta was on point in every aspect. It was so cheesy with a really good crunchy outside & was paired greatly with the Spanish rice & frijoles. Their salsa & chips were just a little spicy but not too much, which is perfect for those who don’t like spice or can’t handle from having heartburn or acid reflux. Our service was sweet & very tending to our table. Definitely worth your money! Thank you for this awesome restaurant! Keep doing you & don’t ever change

Late lunch for 2 arrived around 3pm. Ordered 1 senior meal of cheese enchilada which came with rice and beans and a shredded beef chimichanga. Drinks were mango margaritas which were absolutely yummy but apparentlt no no alcohol in either of them. Over all waitress was great, food excellent, cost of margaritas were high. Will come back for the food and service.

Nice family place. I almost always give 4 stars, but this place was off today. Had a spilled soft drink on the kids, this happens. The moved us to a new booth. Moved to a new table, it was dirty, they cleaned the table with a wet towel, table was left with a sour smell. Order for wife no meat inside burrito, explained on side, they brought meat on side and inside burrito. They got it wrong and didn’t fix it. Food was good for rest, but we won’t be going back.

It was Cinco de Mayo, so of course Mexican food and a margarita were clearly in order. They are usually closed on Wednesdays, but they opened for the holiday and a crowd had gathered outside for the opening at 4:30. Mask wearing and reduced capacity for Covid. They were extremely busy, but in good spirits and very pleasant to deal with. The food was simply some of the best Mexican food we have had – and coming from California we have eaten at plenty of places. The carnitas . The flautas . The cheese enchiladas . The tacos and burritos . The strawberry and mango margaritas . Would highly recommend! It was so good we kept forgetting to take photos!

Food is not that great and the portion size is very little for take out! Spent $40 on 2 plates, It’s not worth it. Foodlands burrito is cheaper, bigger, and better than this place.
