Customer Reviews
WOW! These might just be the best tacos I have ever had in my life. When in Kona you must check out this gem. I went here with my family and we all loved our meals. The taco shells are delicious, the shaka sauce is sweet and yummy. I ordered a side of guacamole and it was delicious. Also, the people working at shaka tacos are so friendly and nice! Even if there is a line, the food is worth the wait and they get orders out quickly. Overall an amazing taco place!!
It's my second time here in one week, the first time I was at the South location and got the fish tacos which were crazy good, this time I got the birria pork, these are definitely the best birria tacos I have ever had. My only comment is I asked for the number for spicy sauce and it still wasn't hot enough for me! I'm from New Mexico what can I say.
Amazing tacos! Must try! Absolutely true to the reviews. Unique flavors and sauces, and the cheesy tortillas are the perfect texture. Note: the Volcano sauce is super hot. 3 stars for atmosphere just bc it’s a taco truck and no seating. But still worth it!!!
Too high of hopes so it let was a bummer let down. Kept reading how amazing this place is. Well we were craving tacos and thinking about the fabulous ones we had at a fish market restaurant up north from there. But passed this one and I yelled for my hubby to turn around so we could try it . The positive: It has a good flavor and love the salsas. Mango sweet heat is 👍🏻👍🏻. Sad news: The fish was dry and I think it’s cause it is fried. If it was moist then it be a 5⭐️ hands down. I could have paid the same price at the other restaurant and received 3 giant moist ones with impeccable flavor. You don’t know until you try, right? Great people, fast service for a food truck. Maybe it was just an off day or moment? Spending $55 + tip for 6 tacos and a side of Spanish rice better rock my world
The food here is second to none. Top tier tacos is what you will get! The reason I had to give 4 stars is because of the wait time, and specifically how the wait time was communicated. We had a group of 5 very hungry people and we waited a little while to get to the front of the line (which is fine) but then after we had ordered and paid, the lady finally said "oh by the way that will be at least a 30 minute wait." This was frustrating for our group, as we were very hungry and had never experienced a wait like that from a taco stand. If she would have told us before we paid that it would be a long wait, we would've gone somewhere else (as there were other food options right there at the market). It ended up being a 35 minute wait for our tacos. They were absolutely delicious, but the long
