Phenomenal tacos!!

Paul Lara

I always recommend this spot to anyone looking for great food. The owner is super passionate about his business and it shows in his food and customer service. The roasted tomatillo salsa is AMAZING. All of the meats are great! It's so hard to pick a favorite. I eat here often and I'm never disappointed! if I'm looking for really good Mexican food, Papis Tacos is my go to spot!If you are in the area, give it a try!

I went on a trip just to check it out. The owner is funny and Kool. Got me hopping on it and experience a little bit of his vibes. Nice fello. My favorite was the shrimp taco

I came here in January of 2025, it's April of 2025 and I'm still thinking of how good the shrimp burrito was. Enough so that three months later I came back to give a 5 star review. I may come back to Hawaii just for this.

The gal running the stand was so nice and makes excellent fish/shrimp tacos. They have multiple sauces for you to use and have Mexican Coca-Cola.

Great tacos! Had the fish and the shrimp. Would highly recommend either of them, but me personally, I would lean a little more towards the shrimp. Can’t go wrong either way!

This taco and Latino food truck is located in a community of food trucks at the Old sugar Mill historical site. While we were staying at turtle Bay, we came to this place three nights in a row for dinner. My wife got the street tacos every single night from Papi's. I also recommend the shrimp burrito.

We loved getting food here and taking it over to the beer garden walking distance away for some craft local brews.

The chipotle chicken tacos were excellent, and the spicy red sauce was great on them.

Best Tacos on the island hands down. This little spot is one of the original sugar mill food truck restaurants on the north shore in Kuhuku and it’s part the reason why people come down here in the first place. From house made salsas like roasted tomatillo paired with meat options like asada, carnitas, chicken or lengua it’s all fire. Papi even does
specials if you’re lucky to catch one. Don’t miss out haole
