This was my first visit to Lahaina Tacos ... It was National Taco Day so tacos were a "must have" for lunch. I ordered 3 Birria tacos and received 4 for $15, plus tax, as it was Taco Tuesday at Lahaina Tacos.
My co-worker ordered the same tacos but added refried beans and rice, not knowing how much it cost. Whoa, $9 for the add-on.
My Birria tacos lacked flavor, even with extra spicy sauce, Jalapeno peppers, and lime juice. My co-worker said his refried beans were the worst he's had, he said they were tasteless, except for the cheese.

Trust me when I say the food is worth every penny (I got the burrito and quesadilla), and plan to be back regularly! Mahalo nui...
Read moreLahaina Tacos located in Fort Street Mall. Family owned, extremely friendly and welcoming. Went for lunch takeout and got the birria burrito. Burrito was a solid size for the price with fresh ingredients. The wait was about 45 minutes total between waiting to order and waiting for the order. The wait was worth it though. Anticipate the long waits will be the case for a bit since they are brand new and in the middle of town. They did run out of some food so get there early! Can’t wait to return and try...
