On our quest to find our favorite place to get birria tacos, we decided to give Aloha Mamacita a try. Aloha Mamacita started out as a food truck in Ewa Beach, then they opened their first brick and mortar restaurant in Waipahu, followed by their second location in town near Costco Iwilei. It's a little tricky to find if you're not familar with the building they're located in. Just head to Nimitz Center (where Eagle Cafe and Siam Garden Cafe is, facing Nimitz Highway), and you'll find them on the mauka side of the Center (you can take the back road off of Alakawa Street by turning by Best Buy).
We were really impressed with the size of these birria tacos. They're larger and heftier than the ones from another food truck we've tried. I like how they load on the meat, cheese and onions. The consommé has some spiciness to it, so if you're like me and do not like spicy foods, be prepared to have a tall glass of water nearby! A plate of 3 birria tacos with consommé is currently priced at $15.
And since I was enjoying these delicious tacos at home, I cooked up a batch of Sun Noodles ramen to enjoy with the leftover consommé.
