We had vegetarian fire tacos! The food was one of the best we’ve eaten! Homemade made tortillas, cooked fresh. The veggies were fresh as well. They have some awesome sauces ranging from very mild to extra hot.The tacos were huge! I had one and my husband has two.Definitely going there again!

These tacos are INCREDIBLE!! Here are photos of my families meals. 1 taco is enough to fill you if you’re moderately hungry, but if you’re STARVED go for two. They’re absolutely loaded!I prefer the spicy pork tacos, but the beef is also wonderful! My mom and dad prefer their fish tacos. They also have different sauces to choose from, and it was so fun trying them out! My favorite was the mango one.

Awesome tacos. As usual I ordered my vegetarian options.What’s awesome is the soft taco itself. Usually they are store bought but this one is nice and thick and felt genuinely home made.Others just drop in some salsa and beans etc out the can but this one had some real cooked ingredients and such. It felt genuinely put together.Not much room at all to sit inside but as seems to be normal here they have couple picnic tables out.Have your taco here for a quick afternoon meal while watching the chickens wander about.

We adore this place. The gluten free shells are so tasty! Handmade every morning with amazing ingredients. It's a little difficult to read but on the bottom blackboard it says All Tacos Served With: Handmade Tortilla, Island grown red/green cabbage, Queso Fresco, Sour Cream, Grilled Onions, and Homemade Salsa. To make it dairy free all you need to do is take off the sour cream & queso fresco. Everything is tasty but the True Imu Kalua pig is the best. Once you get your taco don't forget to grab one of their homemade sauces. They take the taco from amazing to delicious. 2022 and 2025

Amazing service and great tasting tacos! Super filling, I had one taco and my husband had two, and they were pretty big and filled! I chose to get the Kalua Pork taco & my husband got the Al Pastor and Fresh Catch, all of them were so juicy and SO good! Highly recommend giving this place a try, you won't regret it!

This was the first place we went after landing at LIH and it was so good we returned later in the week.The tacos were juicy and flavorfull. Excellent ratio of meat to toppings and the homemade tortillas were great too. I got the Kahuna Fish (spicy fish taco) and my wife got the Kalua Pig Taco. Both were great. When we went back later in the week, we both got the Kalua Pig taco.Other things to know: The only drinks available are cans or bottles. Indoor seating is limited, but there is additional seating outside and the weather in Kauai is great for outdoor dining. There is an adjacent indoor space that is empty and seems like it could be used for additional seating. Note the parking lot is a decent size but take notice it is shared by several businesses. They seem to have signs indicating which parking spaces are for which places so make sure you park in a Tiki Taco spot. Overall: the food was great and the decorations / ambiance was great too.

Quite literally the first place we stopped at on our random Kauai trip after hearing friends and family tell us we had to go there. Could not have been more stoked. The food was absolutely incredible. Bart was awesome to talk to and made us feel right at home in a new place. The sauces were all good so make sure you try them all. Can't wait to go back, Tiki Tacos rocks!

The tacos were incredibly tasty and authentic, with generous portions that I absolutely loved. The staff were super friendly, and the prices were very affordable. I also appreciated the availability of veggie options. I’d happily go back anytime! :)
