Mi Almita Cantina

Our first visit here was limited to the happy hour menu because they happened to have a special prix fixe dinner menu that evening. We tried all of the tacos which were delicious and filling. When we came back to try the regular menu the tacos were equally excellent, the trio of sopes was great, and the chipotle lobster was perfectly tender and seasoned.

A really great place for a light lunch & cocktails - visited during the taco & Margherita special. The food had great flavours & the drinks were strong! We visited a few times during our stay in Waikiki. Only thing I would comment on would be that there the service was a bit slow as there were minimal staff on during happy hour. We weren’t in a rush but there were some other tables that seemed a bit irate.

No lineup and was seated right away. We had the pork and chicken tacos and a caesar salad to share. Both tacos were quite flavorful. The salad had wonderful grilled tomatoes which added a depth of flavour. Tip: come by on Tuesdays for $2 tacos between 12pm - 5pm. The servers are are quite friendly and attentive.

Loved their happy hour $2 tacos, which are everyday from 12-5. The tomatillo sauce goes greeaatt with the chicken tacos, which are probably dark meat so they were definitely juicy, and were probably my favorite (coming from someone who usually picks beef + pork over chicken ). Only downside is sometimes it seems like the chefs forget about your orders so our waitress had to go back and remind them after we waited for half an hour, and once the chefs were reminded our tacos did come out pretty quick. Also i wish service from the servers were a bit quicker, but they were understandably busy. Otherwise, would definitely come back for their $2 tacos - and if you drink, $4 margaritas.

Went here by myself & picked the place as it was a great idea for drinks/food while people watching. The food was great and came out quite quickly + the ingredients seemed quite natural and overall tasted great. Tequila or Margaritas, I was a bit surprised that they were dishing it out of a huge frosty machine; but taste was good and sufficient amount of alcohol seemed to be included in the mix ;-)

Food was okay at best. The burrito was good but over filled and tasted really greasy. Could finish more than half. The other dish we ordered was okay but after a while it was mushy and not good at all. Service was standard . This place is nothing special definitely better breakfast spots

The tacos were ok, service was nice but kind of slow. Get the pork tacos, the beef were not that good. Good music, prices were reasonable. Will come again to try other stuff on there menu.

The service sucked! Big time! I asked for chips and never received them. Got charged for something I order but was made wrong and I changed my mind and order something else, well I got charged for both things. I do not know if the employees just don’t care? The hostess didn’t even greet us, she just said “follow me” we sat down said thank you and she walked away. This was just a very bad experience.
