About Al Pastor Tacos

# Al Pastor Tacos

Located in the Kapaa Food Truck Court next to Ostuka's, this husband-and-wife operation serves what locals consider the best al pastor tacos on the island. Paulino and Faun Hernandez deliver marinated pork that stands out, with house-made pico de gallo and guacamole that complete a proper taco.

The al pastor tacos are the main draw—two per plate with rice and beans for around $14-$16. You're getting substantial tacos topped with pico and avocado sauce at solid value. The insider move: order the fish tacos when fresh ahi tuna is available. The local catch changes daily, and the fresh island fish is worth seeking out.

This is food truck dining at its straightforward best—no frills, just quality Mexican food made with care. Order at the window, grab your plate, and eat at one of the picnic tables. You'll see construction workers on lunch break alongside families with sandy kids fresh from the beach.

The east side doesn't have better affordable eats. Keep in mind they're closed Mondays and close by 5pm Tuesday through Sunday.
