    Edit: the tacos have become really overpriced and the consistency of the tortillas are no longer the same. Stopped by on Monday and was not disappointed. These tacos are by far the best ones I’ve had on island!!! The restaurant itself is colorful and cozy and the staff was also really nice.

    Delicious!! The chicken tacos were very good. My kids had the quesadillas and I was pleased with how filling they were. My favorite was the chicken bowl!! And the churro ice cream dessert was to die for 😁 The only thing my family didn’t care for were the carnita fries, the nacho cheese on top was not good but other people might enjoy them. We will definitely be going back!

    The Tacos here are the best I’ve had on island from a restaurant. They give you a generous amount of meat and the presentation are all worthy of the price they charge. If I had to just rate the tacos I would be giving 5 stars. The side items were decent but I wouldn’t get again. The guacamole was really really good but the price it was at didn’t match. Margarita was okay but I wouldn’t recommend based on size, taste, and price. Go for the Tacos though you won’t regret that!! Hours of Operation are 1130-2200.

    The tacos are amazing but could be a tad bit bigger. Parking is available but limited. Service is impeccable. Highly recommend the carnitas and carne asada. I would return and recommend to friends. I’ll try the nachos and quesadillas next time. The price here is very reasonable and the staff is very friendly. Their alcohol selection is also good and goes really well with the food. It is also very close to other places to shop in the area so it’s definitely a good place to visit and eat at on the way to other places in the island. They also have a similar counterpart In American village.

    Heard some awesome things about this place so decided to give it a try. This is located outside the Foster commissary gate on the way to the Union grocery store. If you’re reached near Hard Off you e gone to far. They have about 4 parking spot; 2 are directly in front of the store which is great for rain season in Oki. Went on a rainy Saturday afternoon for take out and was greeted by a friendly young hostess. There were not a lot of individuals in the bldg so he waited, took my order then went towards the kitchen. Apparently, they make their own mesas/taco so was excited to try those. I would say the chicken taco really didn’t have much just your basic chicken, and a pinch full of veggies. Guess for ¥450 that’s what you should expect! The taco rice salad was better in my opinion as I seemed more filling. All in all it was an experience not sure if I’ll return as it 30 min from my house. So I could get something closer and possibly on par.

    Super delicious tacos and great staff! I've tried almost everything on the menu! Best to go on weekdays because the weekends are full of gaijin.

    Great place for tacos 🌮. Nacho fries, NOT SO GOOD !! The cheese tasted sour and bad 👎🏿. we informed the staff, and they did nothing. I believe the cheese 🧀 was expired or something. I was extremely surprised that the staff didn't care. We only took 1 bite, and we still got charged for it. I guess I will not be ordering that again. Disgusting

    Wanted to try taco rice, and this place fit the bill. Parking is available, but limited to 7 spots. Make sure you park in one. Staff know enough English to order. Also have English menu. Service is a little slow, even when the place isn’t super busy. Food tasted good.

    very tasty food and despite being mexican it is not spicy, the only thing is that the tacos are small and in the photo they look big

  • 5/5 Carlos R. 1 year ago on Google
    Food was Amazing, I come from Hispanic Background and I approve on the taste and texture of the food here. Will definitely return to this restaurant again.

  • 5/5 Manuel V. 1 year ago on Google
    Im giving this a 5 starts considering they make their own tortillas and that is no easy task! I believe there is only one other place on island does that. The flavor is there and its good. The Chorizo and Potato taco tasted more like just potato, however it was good with flavor. The carne asada tacos had good flavor however the meat was a little hard, the Carnitas tacos had a taste similar to “Cochinita Pibil” full of flavor soft and not dry. The Horchata was good, a little overpriced. Overall experience was great. Good staff and friendly. I would come here again!

    Really great place to go eat. They have amazing dessert creations like no other. They also sell merchandise and looks great.

    Ahhh taco Maria! I love this place so much. Food is consistently delicious. I really enjoy the decor and vibe here, reminds me of one of my favorite places in San Diego. Staff is always so friendly. Their margaritas are perfection. The churro ice cream is DEVINE! Probably one of the best desserts I’ve ever had! We have tried it all here.. tacos, nachos, quesadillas.. everything is yummy!

    Loved the fish taco! Had the bulgogi bowl too with cilantro rice and it was very flavorful. Definitely will be back! A bit pricey, but worth it.

    Is this authentic Mexican food...no. Does it taste good, YES! I recommend sticking to beef options, thought the beef was well marinated and spiced right! Carne asada fries were delicious and my favorite part of my meal! Korean bulgogi taco had lots of flavor! The fish taco was a tad bland compared to the rest of the food. Friend got chicken nacho and casadilla and solid 4⭐. The decor 5⭐ and amazing art work on the walls! Ensure you check their chart so you're parking in the business spots before getting towed. Takes credit card and yen. Menu in English and Japanese. Staff are friendly!

    The quality of the food was amazing, although the portion size is a bit small the flavors and spices compensate for that. The price range was good for the amount of food I got (Chicken Nachos and 2 tacos). For a Mexican style restaurant the atmosphere, at least for the music, was a bit lacking with no authentic corridos and such. All and all a great service with even greater food. Be advise the parking space is small so it is best to get their before it fills up.

    Street tacos that are pretty good! Small in size, but pack GREAT flavor. The carne asada was a LITTLE on the tough side, but still good. Shrimp tacos were BOMB!!!! DEF plan to return! The place itself is pretty small inside with only 4-5 tables and a bar area to sit down at. They do have to-go options though. Parking: it's Okinawa sooo, good luck! 😬

    Everything about this place screams SoCal. In fact, it really does teleport me through time and space back to my childhood. The atmosphere was really neat and reminded me of the early 2010s decorations my friend's bedrooms used to be. There is a strong tattoo parlor feel to it, and it's a neat experience to sit back and enjoy the distinct appeal. The tacos are about as close to L.A.-style tacos you're gonna get without actually going there. As soon as I bit into the Carne Asada Taco, only great memories rushed to my head. The flavor was on-point. The quesadillas don't feel authentic and leave a little bit to be desired, but you can't go wrong with these tacos. Amazing. You just have to be careful because the price really does add up for these and it's hard to stop eating them.

    This place was really good and reminded me of California! I got a shrimp, fish & carne asada taco. The shrimp taco was okay, I thought it was sorta bland and I wasn’t a huge fan of, the fish taco was delicious!! The sauce on it was amazing and the fish tasted fresh, the carne asada was marinated perfectly and had lots of flavor! The tacos aren’t huge I ate 3 and was still hungry, keep in mind I’m also pregnant lol. The only bummer I thought was I wish there was a salsa bar, they didn’t have any authentic Mexican salsa for my tacos which sucked only has Tabasco and tapito, other then that this place was really good!
