My wife and I were on OKI, and since we love tacos of all types, we decided to come here. My two tacos (a Kai-Joe and a Coulio)... were both delicious and a good size, definitely not street tacos. My wife's Kai-Joe burrito was also tasty, and our chips withqueso were solid. The service was friendly, and the buzzer let us know when everything was ready. One big thing working in ourfavor was that it was a Thursday night in November, so very off-season. Read more

I will start off by saying the food here is great. We order a lot and always enjoy their specials. So I placed an order tonight... ( Friday) for the whole family. Was told a very reasonable time for them to make all the food, and was happy when I arrived topick it up. However I was informed before paying that they automatically add a 20% gratuity to my pick up/ to-go order. When Iquestioned why, was told they only had one person making food and its the owners policy. Mind you my food is sitting beside theyoung lady and after I questioned the policy she began trying to negotiate a different Tip amount. After our discussion I left,and the food stayed there. I have owned my business in this area for many years, and Love all local food and businesses. But itsnever been a policy to make a customer pay for my workers. I know this was a rather long review and can guarantee, We will notever order food from here again. Read more

Best shrimp tacos (plump, perfectly seasoned), delicious soft tortillas. Sauces are a perfect complement. Walk up to pickup your... food & eat at the clean picnic tables. Great for entire family. My kids thought the spicy shrimp dishes were "too spicy" fortheir taste. But loved the less spicy ones. Read more

Good tacos (surf and turf and the veggie were the best ones we got). The food was fresh and arrived quickly once ordered. The... wait time to be able to order was a little excessive, but I'll give them the benefit if the doubt since it was almost theholiday weekend. We would come back again. Read more

The food was amazing, the wait (we went when Google said it was 'Less Busy') was still around 30 minutes. After we waited to get... up to the order window, the employee told us they were going to catch up on orders first, then take our orders then, which wasanother 15 minutes. Anyway, the food is good, the portions are great, just be prepared to wait. Read more

My fiancé and I were down this weekend and decided to check out some of the local spots. We picked this place and were shocked... at how good it was! This weeks special, the Hawaiian nachos, were amazing! You do have to wait a good bit, but it is WORTH THEWAIT! 10/10! Read more

Perfect place to eat outside after your day at the beach. The wahoo fish taco special today was amazing. Also, can never go... wrong with chips and salsa or quesa and quesadillas! Read more
I really enjoy going to Kai-Joe's. I will admit, as a local, service is considerably better in the off season. Such a fun menu... and food is on-point! Read more
