El Mariachi - ‘Aiea

Hole-in-the-wall eating is some of the BEST Homemade meals. For a good Mexican meal, you got to stop in Aiea, on Moanalua Rd., across from Times center, behind Flowers by Carole. Look for the very last building in the back, by Jean's Hair Studio The servers are hard working and very efficient to your picky eating habits (I have to almost destroy their menu). But the food and service is outstanding. The parking is plenty and free.

Service: El Mariachi ll is hidden behind at the Aiea Mall right across the Aiea Medical Building. There is parking right in front, otherwise find parking in the larger lot. Once we entered we were instantly greeted and seated. Service was really fast from ordering to receiving. Since we were one of the first to get there before the dinner rush, the food came in a good 20minutes. Waitress came around couple times to check on us and refilled water. Food: was amazing! I also ordered from their daily special menu. We ordered the flauta, chimichanga, chili Reno with tamale, carne asada cheese fries, shrimp ceviche. Awww desserts was not what I expected. It was amazing. I got the fried ice cream and the sopapillas. If I was gonna go back, I would start with desserts! Overall: Food was filling, and enjoyable. The pork flauta was good, chimichanga was okay, chili relleno with tamales was awesome. Carne asada fries was perfect. The shrimp ceviche must be rated quickly, otherwise it will just be a wet mess! Lol Mood: 10 out of 10, very satisfied.
