This has to be on your list of things to do in Hawaii! My husband and I went 4 times in 2 days during our honeymoon. Great food, great people... Great experience. I loved the chicken quesadillas and margaritas. To this day, it's one of my favorite memories of the islands!! :) more

Cholo's is a good Mexican restaurant, the food is tasty while not overly spiced. The margaritas are the best, if you like to have a good time this is the place to be, it is packed but worth it. more

LOVE LOVE LOVE Cholo's. Lived in Hawaii for 3 years and always looked forward to the local flair of Cholo's. Try a margarita or two or three!!! I love all the food but I LOVE the Carne Asada the most!!! My girlfriends and I always go there to check out the hot surfers and throw a few back before going... more

Cholo's had a good set up, very good drinks, but the drinks were expensive and the food was pretty bland...but it was okay...but they could have added more flavor to the meals more
