The process goes like this: you place your order, assist the cook with the current orders, take the next order... However, while I was in line, I discovered all 7 lucha libre action figures scattered around and earned a sticker! The burritos were fantastic, but the elote tasted like it came straight from a can, which my partner didn't enjoy at all. A tip: it's best to order ahead via text. Currently, the sign advises ordering by 10:45 AM for lunch and 4:45 PM for dinner.

The long line says it all! Amazing place!They do have pre-order available to help skip the line (see pic). read more The long line says it all! Amazing place!They do have pre-order available to help skip the line (see pic).

I lived in Mexico and in San Diego so I’m pretty snobby when it comes to good Mexican food. But wow it was all so good. The meat was perfectly seasoned and juicy. The rice and beans were flavorful. The fries were also seasoned and fried to perfection. They also had good salsas. We got the carne asada burrito and beef carene asada fries. Last meal before flying back home. Also the service was fantastic. The cashier was so sweet and super cute. I want to be best friends with her.

However, I was truly impressed with the tacos at Taco Libre. I tried the mahi fish taco and the pastor, both of which were fantastic. The homemade habanero salsa was also exquisite. It's amazing that after traveling all the way from California to Kauai, I discovered an authentic Mexican restaurant that follows traditional recipes passed down from their ancestors. Thank you for bringing me the taste of grandma's home cooking!

It was our favorite spot to eat on the whole island! I seriously recommend!
