Great spot for lunch at the beach near Hanalei Bay. Savory selection of tacos and burritos. Highly recommend the Pork tacos, they were excellent! Come early (closer to noon) they do sell out .

Ordered the fish burrito, which was just the right size for me and definitely had that Hawaiian flavor in it with pineapple and Ahi tuna. This place is only open for a few hours per day, the line can form quickly and the parking area can be tricky, so keep this in mind. Also cash only, so be prepared! That being said, the food is absolutely awesome and fresh, I highly recommend.

Get the pork tacos! Best we’ve ever had and we eat a lot of tacos coming from San Diego. Lots of pork and tortilla was cooked perfectly. We’ll be back when we are back in town

Love the food here. I will note that as of 7/28, this looks to be closed (found the truck parked behind the shopping center in Hanalei). My friend found online the owner seems to be out of town. Just double check before planning for lunch here. When it reopens - definitely partake!
