“This are by far the best tacos we’ve had in the island. We tried the pastor ones, asada and mahi mahi and they were very good. The green salsa they had went great with the asada tacos. We are Mexicans and know about real tacos so we really recommend this place.“

“I have had a lot of pizza as it is one of my favorite foods. I even have my own pizza oven I cook my own. This is easily in my top 3 pizzas of all time. The base was amazing with good leoparding on the bottom. The crust had some great crispy crust. They are just 🤌🏼! I got the Kauai Beef Short Rib, and the toppings were just spectacular! Plus either the owner or one of the cooks has perfect music tone as well. Seriously cannot recommend this place enough!“
