Reviews for Maria Bonita Restaurant in Honolulu, HI
Mexican food is hard to find on this island, but this hole in the wall hits the SPOT!! Friendly and fast, them some good eats!
Senor Diego and Josh did a superb job! Food was fresh and cooked to perfection. Returning soon!
Omg. This place is so good. The taste is authentic and delicious!! Just like a Mexican Abuela?s cooking, except that the owner... here is Diego instead of grandma! He said he cooks with his heart and it shows in his food. It?s a little hole in the wall butwhen we walked in we can smell the food so decided to give it a try as we were craving tacos ! To our surprise it?s the nextMexican food we have!! The tacos are home made. Everything made fresh to order. So delicious. Highly recommend.

Unbelievable. This place was hidden on a side street in Chinatown, Honolulu. We were served by the owner, who is from... Acapulco. The sandwich is a Mexican Torta, which is buttered and grilled, and it has the best pork carnitas on it with freshcilantro, cheese, tomato, and mayo. It was so good. The salsa was spicy and about as perfect as it gets. The tacos withground beef had little bits of potato mixed in, and so did the beans of the chalupa. We get Mexican food just about everywherewe go, and we've had it multiple times in Texas - but Tracy and I agreed this place takes the cake. She said the rice wasprobably the best she's ever had. 5 ***** highly recommended. Read more
Today's lunch is chimichanga with shredded beef from Maria Bonita. All cooked just right, and beef was very tender. Beans were... pretty tasty, too. I got a bag of chips and salsa, which has a nice kick for chips and chimi. Totally enjoyed this meal! Read more
Small business with seating, street parking is slim but lots of garage parking around. Food is good, chips and salsa is good,... pricing is not bad. Definitely would recommend you eat at Maria Bonita. Read more
Delicious Mexican food hiding downtown Honolulu. Of all the times I am downtown I see the same old shops and the same old... restaurants. Not long ago I was on my way home and I was hungry, didn't want to cook, and did not want the same ole fair I hadbeen getting. Heading for my bus I noticed a hand made A frame sign standing on the sidewalk and decided to go see what it wasabout. Walking in Mari Bonita restaurant It would be easy for some to assume there isn't much to it. The decors is plain andfunctional. The interior dated but clean. I was surprised by the prices, I was expecting them to be much higher based solely onthe restaurants in the same area, I decided on Chicken Street Tacos with Beans and Rice. The gentleman attending the counterthat night (I assume the owner) took our orders with a smile, and in no time came out with a wonderful plate of food, despitethe fact the was the only one there. Since my initial visit I have been back and the food is as good as it was the firsttime. If you are in the area, and are craving Mexican food. Don;t waste your money and some fast food chain. get a much bettermeal here for roughly the same price. and a far better selection. You will not regret it! Read more
