Fantastic experience at Da Seafood Cartel (98-380 Kamehameha Hwy, Aiea). It’s a little hidden—attached to an auto repair shop—but if you turn in just before the restaurant, there’s a large parking lot for customers.
The food was incredible. Fresh guacamole and a Taco Cabo that was absolutely packed with flavor. You can tell the ingredients are quality and prepared with care.
What really made this visit stand out was the service. The team was welcoming, knowledgeable, and took the time to help one of our guests with a food allergy find the right options. They genuinely care about their customers.
Highly recommend this spot if you’re looking for great seafood tacos and outstanding hospitality. Will definitely be back!

Had some amazing food here. Service was fantastic. Beef taco, fried fish platter, ceviche, quesadillas, and a shrimp/beef taco. Amazing amazing food. Also great spicy torrito peppers and home made tortilla chips. Must stop by.

Still one of my favorite places to eat on the island. I don't like the taste of cilantro, but the other flavors are so good that it drowns out the cilantro. Yum. Extra tortilla chips would be good to use to scoop up the mix.

This is the pinnacle of shrimp taco deliciousness! The shrimp are plump, and the pico de gallo is excellent. The combination of flavors and sensations in my mouth was a delightful treat. These are my favorite tacos of all time—no joke! You guys rock, so keep doing what you're doing because you do it right.

Unexpectedly great Mexican food find for Oahu that my friend recommended! The renovated gas station is kind of a vibe, the workers are sooo nice and the food and prices are fire. Between the four of us, we shared one ceviche and one whole fried snapper with all the fixings and some extra corn tortillas, and some drinks. They have one of the best horchatas I've ever had- super creamy, not watered down at all, silky smooth with no rice grain grit, and very flavorful. The fish was amazing and so fun to share with folks- we especially enjoyed the smokey peppers that came with it, and the seasoned rice. Ceviche was great too, super refreshing to eat outside. Looking forward to future visits :)

Probably the best fish tacos I’ve ever had in my life. Amazing beer batter on em. We are only here for a week but we are already planning another visit to this spot! Staff are so friendly too.

This place was amazing. This was my favorite meal in Hawaii out of all of the restaurants we tried. Very good salsa. Steak tacos were fantastic. My kids and wife enjoyed the different items they ordered. Quick, friendly service. Outside dining/music.

I thought I had enjoyed the perfect shrimp taco earlier this week on Waikiki Beach, but I’m so glad that Ms. Skyler and I happened to spot this place during our trek to the North Shore. We decided to stop on our way back to the Hyatt Regency in Waikiki, and let me tell you, the shrimp tacos at Da Seafood Cartel are incredible! The generous amount of toppings, the amazing hot sauce available at the tables, and the mountain of shrimp made for an unforgettable meal. The prices are very reasonable, and the excellent customer service was outstanding. Thank you for making our day one to remember!

Da Seafood Cartel is hands down my favorite restaurant on the island! I wanna list a few of my go-to’s (though you seriously can’t go wrong with anything on the menu): Toritos Botana, OG Tostada, Taco Cabo, fried fish, and anything from the special menu. Today I tried one of their specials with Raw scallops and shrimp—so good! So grateful they’re on the North Shore now!
I love the food here! Extremely flavorful, bursts in your mouth goodness. While it's spicy, it isn't unnecessarily so. Perfect balance!

Ridiculously amazing food, amazing prices for the amount and quality of the food. Just the right amount of spice. Aguachiles, ají with sauce and slides serranos, the tostada with scallops and yellowtail. I can go on. Sad it’s our last day here or we would be back tomorrow! Must stop

So Good! Needed my taco fix (born and raised in San Diego) amazing flavor 🥰🤙🏽
