La Cucaracha Mexican Bar and Grill Waikiki

 

La Cucaracha Mexican Bar and Grill has a passion for serving the freshest Mexican food  and is the first authentic Mexican bar and Grill in Waikiki .

Doors first opened in 1999 in a cosey side street location in the heart of Waikiki. Today , we have grown and expanded to a prime location off the beach and tripled in size.

Our original chef’s love and passion for cooking has earned La Cucaracha the uncontested reputation of a restaurant which ” still makes food from scratch using fresh and healthy ingredients ”

 

 

Our menu remains pretty much the same from day one with a wide variety, from tacos and burritos to fajitas and Acapulco seafood plates.

We are home to the famous Cuca Taco – tacos served with onions and cilantro and home made salsa verde . 

So hang up your hat and sit down, we still dish out the first round of complimentary chips and salsa – and we’re talking chips from fresh corn tortillas and tomato salsa made from Chef’s old hometown recipe.

Awesome margaritas made from our own recipe of mix never fail to impress. We carry over 30 types of tequila – the most and the best in any bar in town. It is fun just to browse the bar and checking the selection out . And if you feel like it after a couple drinks , grab a Sombrero and take photos to bring home some memories of La Cucaracha in paradise !

“Service with Aloha ” is our mission and guarantee to every patron who comes through our door. You can’t help but think you have just crossed the border into Mexico – what with our sombreros , latino music and Mexican artifacts.  We look forward to serving you at La Cucaracha – don’t leave Hawaii without it !
