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 fresh cilantro, cheese, tomato, and mayo. It was so good. The salsa was spicy and about as perfect as it gets. The tacos with ground beef had little bits of potato mixed in, and so did the beans of the chalupa. We get Mexican food just about everywhere we go, and we’ve had it multiple times in Texas – but Tracy and I agreed this place takes the cake. She said the rice was probably the best she’s ever had. 5 ***** highly recommended.

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.

Delicious Mexican food hiding downtown Honolulu. Of all the times I am downtown I see the same old shops and the same old restaurants.

Maria Bonita is a hole in the wall joint off of Hotel Street that is easy to just walk past. If you are craving authentic (or as close as you’re likely to get) Mexican food then this small shop in Chinatown is the place to go. Pricing is cheap and the food is plentiful. BYOB.

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.

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!

Me and my husband love this place! The owner and staff here are so kind and welcoming. They’re such great people we love coming back to support them. The food is such a comfort we love their carne asada burritos and tacos. I definitely enjoy their salsa and guac which is simple and I like that. I always order a side of their pickled jalapenos for that spicy taste. Yum. Hits the spot.
