Reviews for Ono Loco Tacos in Honolulu, HI
Not a fan. Talk about CRAZY pricing for what you get?! We came to try them out for lunch. One positive if they offer 15%... discount for military which is nice. Since I'm a veteran, I got to take advantage of that and thank goodness because I orderedthe al pastor torta which is normally >$11. I thought "a little steep for a torta but hopefully it's big and delicious."Unfortunately I cannot say it was either. First off, can someone tell me why I only got HALF a torta??? I was in disbelief whenI opened the container. Definitely not what I'm accustomed to having lived 6 years in Vegas. It came out hot, so that was a plusbut I couldn't hold it because it was TOO hot and then the bottom bread was soft so when I did finally get to pick it up,everything was falling out and it was just a mess. Ended up having to eat my sandwich with a fork. On top of it, flavors weresub par. Not a pleasant eating experience. My buddy got a grande burrito which in the end was not so grande. His was >$14 toboot and he said there were no veggies in it? Did he have to ask for veggies or pico? He also said it was lacking flavor. Idkbut I will say that he informed me that he had previously ordered a plate meal and it was nothing like what we got for lunch.He said it was a large plate that was stacked with food and was delicious, hence why he suggested we come here for lunch.Unfortunate though b/c the lunch servings for what we ordered were pathetic and a let down. Would I try here again? I'm going topass and go to Kalihi if Taqueria la Marea is open. Read more
We ordered via door dash the delivery wasn't great but it's probably because the restaurant shoved everything in to one bag. The... food ordered was enchiladas (chicken) with beans and rice, al pastor burrito and 3 Carne asada tacos. The enchiladas were drythat alone says so much... the sauce was bland the chicken was dry and over all just not satisfying so this was NOT Ono forsure. The beans clearly had liquid smoke added or were straight out of the can. The burrito was all beans and rice so if youcrave some good flavored meat in your burrito prepare to be disappointed. The tacos were ordered plain and they were plain ANDbland. This is not the taqueria you've been looking for... keep looking. Read more
If you like what looks and tastes like 5 day old chicken that's been sitting out everyday and then reheated, this is the place... for you.. Read more
Ordered online, 2 carnitas tacos, Carne asada fries and chille relleno. All of it was ok. One thing I've never had when ordering... a Chile relleno was that the sauce tasted like tomato sauce with pieces of green bell pepper and tomato on top. Different forsure. My kids enjoyed the fries. And the tacos were ok. Bad pic of chilli relleno but also expected more cheese. Read more
Really clean burrito spot in a sort of hidden spot next to Starbucks. I dont know who Don is but his veggie burrito smacks and... the Verde sauce is no joke. Super cool local art on the wall. And an employee and beautiful soul got a photo of us here. Sosweet Read more
The restaurant was clean & the service is quick. This place is great for taking the family. The California fries and tacos are... very tasty. The California Fries is a good portion. Their spicy salsa taste so good. Read more
Very friendly and helpful workers. They didn't have fajitas when we went there but they said they will be selling that soon so... I'm planning to go back to try that. Prices was a little pricey but they gave huge portions. The tortilla chips and salsa camein a little brown paper bag and it was good. I ordered the carne asada sopes that has beans, lettuce, guacamole, queso fresco,sour cream, tomato and lime. The portion is huge. It was almost like eating a taco salad since they piled on a bunch oflettuce. The carne asada got lost in all that lettuce. But it was ok. My husband got the beef burrito that had beans, cheese,and Spanish rice. He enjoyed it with some of the spicy salsa they have at the bar. For dessert we shared the Mexican fried icecream... Delicious!!! Hot, cold, crispy, flavorful, cinnamon etc... That's how I can describe that. If you go here, you have totry that dessert. I do think they should add the salsa that they give with the corn tortilla chips to the little mini bar so wecan put that on our food. That salsa was good. The other ones at the mini bar was ok. Hope this review helps since there areother Mexican restaurants in Wahiawa. Read more
Pro: carne here is cooked very well - cashier was sweet as tea and really fun Con: $8 for 20 chips and an oz of guac -fish taco... wasn't for me.... - shrimp taco had 2 shrimp in it but loaded with slaw. Overall, don't think i will return for another $40lunch for their proportions. Read more
