The food at Los Garcias was amazing. My daughter ordered the tacos de pescado and absolutely loved them. They were fresh flavorful and perfectly cooked. She also ordered the fried ice cream which was a huge hit. I had the seafood fajitas and they were incredible sizzling hot with generous portions of seafood and great seasoning. The horchata was amazing. Everything tasted fresh and well prepared. The customer service was amazing. We left stuffed and already ready to visit again.

I honestly don’t know how this place has any good reviews. The rice was way overcooked and completely plain, zero flavor. The beans were the total opposite, overly seasoned and salty to the point where they were hard to eat. The tortillas were clearly store-bought, and the “steak” was a whole other problem. It was watery, had a weird taste, and honestly looked more like a pork chop. Half of it was just fat and tendon.
The horchata tasted like watered-down powdered mix, and the jalapeño poppers were just sad. Jack in the Box has better jalapeño poppers, and that says a lot. Overall, this was a disappointing meal and definitely not worth the money.

Los Garcia’s in Kailua absolutely blew us away. We ordered the chimichanga, tostadas, the Burrito Garcia, and two kids’ cheese quesadillas — every single dish was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. The mango margaritas was well poured and balanced.
The chimichanga was the best I’ve ever had: perfectly crisp, generously filled, and packed with flavor. Their table salsa deserves its own shout-out too — rich, fresh, and with just the right amount of spice.
Great food, welcoming vibe, and a place we’ll absolutely be returning to. Highly recommended for anyone craving quality Mexican food on the Windward side.

Los Garcia’s is that spot you go to when you’re craving legit, home-cooked Mexican food without having to actually cook. Everything tastes like it came straight from someone’s abuela’s kitchen—comforting, fresh, and zero pretentious vibes. The portions are generous, the flavors are on point, and the whole place just feels warm and familiar. If you want real, no-nonsense Mexican comfort food that hits every time, this is it. 🌮🔥

We came in for a late lunch. The good thing here was very fast service and good delivery. The food however was pretty basic Mexican, more fast food style in my opinion. Drinks were ok but definitely cheaper made than others we've had in the area.
Went there on a Friday night with wonderful live music and a very reasonable and yummy Mexican dinner. Very nice folks made us feel very comfortable because of their their super hospitality!

I come here for the fajitas, drinks, chips & salsa, and Smoketrain! IMO, the better of the little two sit-down Mexican restaurants in the area.

There are two parking spots so be prepared to either walk or ride a bike to get there. You must try their salsa, very good. Nothing special about their enchiladas. Food overall was so so. Service was good and waiter was attentive. Live music on certain nights.

Hands down, the BEST restaraunt salsa I've ever had. Everything was perfect from the rice, beans, Burriz tacos, and my Mango margarita. Our waiter was kind, quick, attentive, and efficient. I felt like I was in a quaint family owned restaraunt in Mexico vs Hawaii. We will visit again when in town. It's not a 5 star restaraunt but the service and kindness my husband I received was 10s across the board. Thank you Garcia family !!
Amazing place with great people and even better service. Hands down one of the best places to get an authentic Hispanic meal.
