Best Mexican food in Oahu
Breakfast burrito was AMAZING. Perfect delicious and crispy in some parts. Yummmm
Wow I could eat this for breakfast lunch and dinner – they’re chicken and fish tacos are always delicious as well. Pretty much come here weekly and I’m never disappointed

I’m super picky about tacos (ask anyone) and a friend from LA swore this was her favorite spot on Oahu so obviously I had to try it. The interior is cute, the environment is laid-back, and the staff was beyond helpful (especially with my long list of food allergies). I ended up getting the pollo asado and camarones tacos – both on fresh corn tortillas with cabbage, onion, cilantro, and a side of their incredible homemade salsas + pickled red onion. The shrimp had the perfect texture (not rubbery or overcooked ) and the chicken was juicy and super flavorful! Honestly, the salsas alone are worth the trip!

My friend went for the baja fish tacos and the weekend special birria tacos and said they were hands-down his favorite on the island so far. My only wish? Bigger meat portions but flavor-wise, it was there.

IMO they don’t hit the same as California tacos, but for Oahu? My fav so far!

Also noted that they have Taco Tuesday aka $33 tacos So you know I’ll be back for those!

I got 3 carne asada burritos and I’m writing my review before I’m even done eating and I might not even finish this burrito. The steak is pretty much inedible, every other bite is either fat or tendon and all 3 burritos are like that. The meat they use is really low quality and considering this was nearly $20 per burrito, it’s a bummer. The cashier was really friendly and helpful. But other than that the burrito itself is extremely disappointing.

Food was so good. I got a burrito (make it wet). It’s huge and I couldn’t stop. Lots of topping options. If you like spicy, you’ll enjoy the selections. The staff is very friendly. We dined in, they were playing enjoyable music, not loudly. I’m definitely going back.

Who can resist $3 street tacos, all day every Tuesday or at happy hour. I’ve been to this place a couple of times. They have good fish tacos, but my wallet and stomach enjoys $3 street tacos on Tuesdays.
Beef, pork, chicken and i think a vegetarian one is your only options. For sauce the red one is delicious with everything. The sauce, lime and pickled onions are all self-serve.
Highly recommend.
Service was good. The restaurant atmosphere is good for groups and families to dine in. Can be a bit nosy, overall an average local restaurant interior.

There and 5+ different Mexican restaraunts in Kailua town and I would drive to Tight Tacos in Kaimuki to get my fix because they are that good. When it comes to authentic Mexican food, a lot of places attempt, but Tight Tacos is one that truly hits the mark and sets the standard in Hawaii.

Bites taste fresh, flavorful, and carefully crafted, from their hand-pressed tortillas to their scratch-made salsas. Their tacos are on another level—perfectly seasoned meats, bold flavors, and just the right balance of texture and freshness. THE COCONUT HORCHATA—absolutely to die for. I had two, and definitely could’ve had more. It’s the perfect refreshment to complement the richness of the tacos.

Beyond the food, the experience itself is what makes Tight Tacos a gem. The staff is welcoming, the vibe is laid-back yet vibrant, and you can tell they take pride in what they do. In a town like Kaimuki, where great food spots thrive, Tight Tacos has become a true cornerstone of the local food scene.

I can’t wait for them to open a new location. Tight Tacos isn’t just good, it’s worth the journey.

We love this place! It’s nice to have a diff option on days we want something diff. Hard to find good Mexican food in Hawaii!! Most places are just mid.. but I loved the corn tortillas here!! The only thing I’d change is maybe just a tad bit less salty… but I’m still coming back! It’s on our rotation of weekly rotation now!

They close at 8pm so if you go around 7:45p, expect to do takeout only.

The tacos were delicious and the service was quick. The house made salsa that they offer are to die for. The fish and the rajas taco really stood out

I accidentally came during happy hour, which is from 2pm-4pm but I’m glad I did! I got a carne asada taco for $3 and this came with free chips and salsa. I didn’t care for the salsa it came with but I loved the salsas from the salsa bar. The salsa verde and the orange one were so full of flavor. Cheapest meal I had during my visit!
