El Charro Mexicano Aiea Restaurant Aiea, HI 96701

"First off, the direction Google gives you are wrong. So it is tricky to find. It's a small business and decorated cute. This food is what I would consider tex mex so not authentic. Be careful with the menu, some of the items read differently then what you actually get, so ask the server before you order. The menu it's self doesn't have any prices. You have to scan the qr code to get the prices. My husband ended up speaking in Spanish to our waitress to ask about what we were ordering. The way our items, that we ordered read in English on the menu, is NOT what she was explaining to my husband in Spanish. Waitress was polite and respectful. The food was not good for any of us except our 7 year old. I personally would not come back here or recommend it here to eat, but that's just my opinion."

"The food never disappoints, one of the best Latino food options on the island. Seating is limited and parking can be hard to find this place is nestled next to Aiea bowl. It’s worth the drive!"

"Our server was very courteous, her timing was a little off, but it was pretty busy. It's a comfortable and casual atmosphere. The music was a little loud, so had to speak loudly, but not "yell", to have a conversation. The food was very tasty and I would definitely recommend it and go there again"

"The food was great, the staff were kind. We had to wait outside because there was a big group going to the restaurant. The food took a very long time to make, and it took at least 20 minutes to make the dishes (we got desert and after we ordered it, it took about 20-25 minutes to make). Once we finished, our waiter was not paying attention and it took time for her to come to give our check. Other than than the wait, the food and atmosphere was great. The restaurant and food felt very authentic."

"I have lived all over the southwest and I can say this food is amazing and never disappoints. It’s the closest you’ll find on Oahu to TexMex San Antonio style food. It’s the perfect blend of spices, cheese, red or green sauce, perfectly seasoned Mexican rice and homemade style refried beans. I’ve tried everything on their menu and can honestly say you won’t be disappointed. Some dishes can be expensive but hey, what’s not expensive in Hawaii. It’s my happy food!!"
