This place is our favorite and most authentic Mexican food on all the islands. It is located in Hawi (Big Island). For 14 years we have been eating here. The Chili Rellenos are the very best anywhere. We are originally from Texas and New Mexico, so I can validate my statement. If you are north on the island of Hawaii, do stop in. *** OF NOTE, THEY ONLY TAKE CASH! Do not pull out your credit card. It also is BYOB, no problem! Everything is fresh and comes out piping hot! We are thankful for this place!

We came in for lunch, and the four of us very much enjoyed the meals we got. I had the taco salad, and it made for two meals!

We've eaten here probably five or six times this week because the food is so good but finally got time to get a review in.
The family that runs the place and cooks are just amazing and wonderful people. They put great pride in their cooking, and it shows! Definitely will be coming back. Thank you friends!
Parking: They don't serve alcohol, but neither do most establishments nearby. However, you're allowed to bring your own beverages which you can purchase across the street at Minit Stop.

Good food..

Didn't expect to find a Mexican restaurant in Hawi, Hawaii. Being from Texas, it's not really a fair comparison.

Order at a window. Cash only. Salsa has kick but the rest of the food sadly lacked flavor.

Honestly this is my favorite place in town and I recommend it to everyone and anyone who ask for a good place to eat. It is cash only but there is an atm near by. Best place ever for Mexican food and I love their wet burritos.

Hot food , sitting in a old Hawaii building, looking out front window on the main street in town. Open air, ceiling fans. Local fruit store in the same building. Families, dog & cat friendly.

I was hopeful...but left most our food on our plates. Mexican food should not be bland. Sorry...

Very cheap spot for food. Cash options are cheaper. The sauces comes along with food and really enhance the tater and make it very nice!
