Wonderful little gem - tacos with a Hawaiian flair! Entire menu is gluten free, with freshly made corn tortillas. Does not disappoint! Freshly made food with great variety and delicious flavors. A single taco is not cheap but portions are generous and worth it!

Great tacos! The ono was delicious. My son said it was the best taco he had ever had. I wasn’t a big fan of the cabbage or onions, but overall it was great. Gluten free facility!

So good! Everything is 100% gluten free, the tortillas are made fresh in-house, and the owner was so kind and accommodating to other allergies. I had a vegetarian taco that was flavorful, fresh, and filling.

I didn’t ask about safety or contamination but checked if everything was grilled and if the tortillas were corn. Both were yes! The corn tortillas are thick and large and don’t break or crumble (a true miracle) and the meats are topped with coleslaw, cotija cheese, and salsa verde. The portions are huge which makes the price reasonable. 2 tacos was too much food but I’m sure just one would have left me wanting more. I had a “surf n turf” with beef and shrimp and a roast pork. My sister got the grilled fish and chorizo and loved both!

They’re also open later than most other establishments in the area if you need a bite to eat after a long day beaching it or site seeing.

Excellent hole-in-the-wall tacos. Fresh ingredients and delicious. Nothing is marked gluten-free, but all of it naturally was gluten free so I felt super safe.

Insane tacos, fully gf! The tortillas were made of corn, they were thick and warm and soft and didn’t snap when you bent them (if you know you know). We tried the shrimp, fish, and khalua pork taco, the shrimp was by far the best. They came out super hot fresh off the grill. They were also massive so I likely could have done with a single taco. Definitely a must if you’re in the area!

Loved the tacos!

I ate at this location and at the other location in Lihue. Here I had the chorizo taco which was a surprise - instead of actual chorizo sausage it was more like chorizo seasoning treatment to ground pork. So yummy. I had the lamb in Lihue and it is my favorite. They’d run out at this location and the staff member offered to make more but it would take a while. We were hungry so I passed but the sweetest service!

I also had a Kahuna fish which was good but not my fave - the strong flavors of the lamb and chorizo were tastier to me :)

This place is awesome!! I should have trusted the reviews and saved a pod, everything tested negative on my Nima. If you want something special try the Paniolo beef taco!! Not super spicy but so flavorful. The guacamole is great too.

So far the only place that has a clue about GF, and so delicious. I had an asada beef, and a pollo loco. Super fresh veggies that tasted like they were picked that morning.

The entire menu is gluten free! Homemade corn tortillas are used for the tacos and quesadillas. We had the Tiki Fire Beef and Fish and Shrimp tacos and they both were huge and very flavorful. We’re already planning to go back again : ). Highly recommend for anyone- whether you can handle gluten or not.

Everything here is gluten free! They have several taco & quesadilla options, and their tortillas are all corn so there is no chance for cross contamination. This is part of a Tiki Tacos chain but is much closer to where we were staying. So happy to have found it!
