(across from Pearlridge Center)
Honolulu, HI 96818

http://www.banditoscantina.com/
This place serves up authentic Tex-Mex food at prices that will remind you of yesteryear. The appetizer menu features such items as Sizzling Fajitas and Jalapeno Poppers. Try the Pecos Platter, a huge assortment of all of the house specialties. There are also some great daily specials. The decor is a pleasing mish-mash of Hawaiian, Mexican and Southwestern. This place is popular with the Navy boys stationed at nearby Pearl Harbor and recruits from the office next door.

Burrito


Authentic and cheap Mexican fare
550 Piikoi Street
(at Kapiolani Avenue)
Honolulu, HI 96814
United States
+1 808 596 8225
Tired of Pacific Rim and seafood? This oasis near Ala Moana serves up huge portions of fresh, home-cooked authentic Mexican food. All the classics are on the menu, plus some unusual variations. Try the yummy Lamb Chimichangas: tender pieces of shredded meat in a crisp flour tortilla. No alcohol is served, but you are welcome to bring your own. Small and funky but clean, this is a classic hole-in-the-wall favorite exuding friendly vibes and ethnic flavor.

Cha Cha Cha Waikiki


Mex-Caribe in Waikiki
342 Seaside Avenue
Honolulu, HI 96815
United States
+1 808 923 7797
Mexican food with Caribbean flair is served at this busy bar and grill. All the familiar south-of-the-border dishes are here, but they're flavored with Cuban and Central American overtones. There is a choice of salsas ranging from very mild to so hot that you'll breathe fire. And if spicy food is your preference, you can request that your entree be served blazing. A few tropical drinks or frosted beers may cool the flames. The decor is a colorful mix of Caribbean and Mexican styles.

Compadres Mexican Bar & Grill


Mexican and southwest cooking
1200 Ala Moana Boulevard
(Victoria Ward Center)
Honolulu, HI 96814
United States
+1 808 591 8307
The menu here is best described as American Southwest with a Mexican accent. There is a large selection of Mexican favorites, along with fresh local fish, huge salads and a wide choice of vegetarian items. Margaritas here are consistently voted Honolulu's best, and they come in many flavors. Try one or two on the outdoor lanai and enjoy complimentary salsa and chips at sunset. This eatery is also a very popular dating, shmoozing and pick-up spot. There is a second location in Lahaina on Maui.

Cucaracha Mexican Bar and Grill


Mexican in Waikiki
2310 Kuhio Avenue, Suite 102
Honolulu, HI 96815
United States
+1 808 922 2288
This popular, upscale Mexican eatery specializes in the colorful, zesty cuisine found in the Sonoran region of Mexico. You can find a good Oaxacan Mole here, as well as some unusual Yucatan-style fish preparations. The salsa is terrific and is available in a mild or hot variety. The margaritas are authentic and made exactly the way you want. Try the Enchiladas (beef, cheese or chicken). It's a large plate with rice and beans in either a red or green sauce.

Jose's Restaurante Mexicana and Cantina


Extensive menu, reasonable prices
500 Ala Moana Boulevard
(Restaurant Row)
Honolulu, HI 96813
United States
+1 808 528 3859
While the prices here don't drop as low as at your local neighborhood taqueria, the dishes are treated with a lot more care. The menu is 10 pages long, covering all the variations on the classics. Vegetarian and seafood dishes are available. People who like the taste of sweet-n-sour should try the Li Hing Mui margarita—it's sure to make you pucker. The atmosphere is laid-back and friendly. This place is located on Restaurant Row, one of the most popular dining neighborhoods in the city.

Makai Market


25 restaurants, one food court
1450 Ala Moana Boulevard
(Garage Level, Ala Moana Center)
Honolulu, HI 96814
United States
+1 808 943 6841
More than 20 food stands, three sit-down restaurants and a bar are located here. You can choose from any kind of cuisine, including American, Hawaiian, vegetarian and Indian. Fresh fruit smoothies, pastries and daiquiris can all be enjoyed. While there are quite a few standard food stands - Sbarro, Blimpies - the local ones are much more interesting. Little Cafe Siam serves Thai food, the Noodle Co. offers a dozen kinds of sai min, and the Poi Bowl serves a Hawaiian plate lunch. The average cost is $40.

Quintero's Cuisine


Margaritas and live mariachi
1102 Piikoi Street
Honolulu, HI 96814
United States
+1 808 593 1561
If you like lively 'South of the Border' atmosphere and large portions of Mexican food, then this is the place for you. It's been around for years, and has gained some renown for the excellent Mexican musical acts it presents regularly. It is family-owned and very casual. The lunch menu is a lot cheaper than the dinner menu, but it's only served on weekdays. Take advantage of the Pacific's proximity and order a dish that features shrimp or other seafood. Vegetarian dishes are also available
