11 Best Mexican Restaurants near Koloa

“OMGosh, now I know why the lines at this place during peak times are long! Incredible and affordable Mexican food. My wife had the fish tacos (ahi was the fresh catch of the day) and I had a chicken burrito. Both dishes were very flavorful. We ordered online and didn’t have to wait to pick up. So amazing!!! Stop here for lunch and/or dinner while on da South Island“

“I ordered the blackened fish tacos and my husband ordered the AlPastor tacos. Both were incredible. We could really taste the pineapple in the Al Pastor. There are two sauces that he keeps outside and we added the red/spicy sauce on top and they gave the tacos a great kick! Food was made to order and very fresh!“

“super good food! Very courteous staff. Highly recommend.“

“Food is still good however the service now sucks. if your eating and want something else or another drink. whoever is serving you will not get it you are told that you must go back up to the cashier and order it there. what kind of crap is that. when told that I replied that "Then no need to tip you right" ? got a dirty look for that one, I'm just saying what's the purpose of having a waiter/waitress that won't get anything may as well go to the Crack. glad the one in Kalaheo isn't like poipu !!“

“This sweet little spot on Kauaʻi, it holds a beautiful mana (spirit), and once you find it, it just keeps pulling you back. My beautiful wahine (wife) and I, we were only on the island for one short week, but we kept coming back—four times! Like the tide, it just calls you home.
​I made it my mission to sample every single brew they had flowing, just to see what kind of talent they get on tap. They’ve got some good ones, truly. But if I had to pick one to sing about, the one that really touched my soul, it’s the delightful Country Time Belgian farm ale. It’s so clean, so crisp, it just sings the song of the islands right in your glass.
​The whole atmosphere here is pure lokahi (harmony). It’s so easy and relaxed—exactly where you want to hoʻonanea (unwind) and forget your troubles. We loved settling in, especially when the evening cooled and those warm outdoor fire pits were glowing under the stars. It’s the perfect setting for my lady and me.
​And the staff? Oh, they are the heart of the place! Always so genuinely friendly, always with that deep, warm Aloha spirit for everybody who walks through the door. If you’re planning a trip to Kauaʻi, you simply must add Mucho Aloha Brewhouse to your itinerary. Five stars, no question. Mahalo nui loa, everybody. Right on!“

“Really tasty and full tacos—tried the carnitas, chicken and carne asada tacos, all soooo yummy!! The chicken taco had cabbage and sauces that really made it! Just make sure to check your order that it’s complete! But otherwise it was VERY delicious tacos, better than many street tacos I’ve had in So Cal!“

“A cute little taco stand advertising “authentic Mexican food” located just off the main highway in Hanapepe (although I think there are other locations elsewhere on the island).

On a Monday at 11:45 we were the only customers and each ordered two tacos, fish and carnitas. You order at the window and they call you when the food is ready. There are a handful of picnic tables scattered around the taco shack or get the food to go.

The fish taco was good, but the pork with big chunks of tender pork was fantastic-highly recommended. They were pretty quick and reasonably priced with tacos around $7 each.“

“Scenic view of Hanapepe side.“

“Awesome atmosphere. Great Service and the best we have ever had on any of the cruises“

“Ahi tacos are amazing and big!“

“I wanna start this review by giving Savanah a massive shout out. The best customer service and so professional our order got sent to Honolulu because of the new app update and without any question she went ahead and just made our order anyway because we would’ve lost the order and had to pay double. This is the kind of customer service that should make someone a manager someday. We understand it was our fault, but she understands. It was a small order and it would suck to have to repay for it again, so she without any question took care of it for us.“
