SENOR PEPE

SENOR PEPE
ALA MOANA CENTER FOOD COURT
HONOLULU, HI

Hawaii is known for not having very many good Mexican restaurants.  The last place you would think of munching down on some good Mexican would be the mall's food court.  Well, I am here to tell you that Senor Pepe has some of the best Fish Tacos on the Island.  They are really good and come with your choice of three sides.  There are 10 sides to choose from including beans, rice, potato, cucumber and Jicama, cole slaw and a few more.  For $7.79 (two tacos & three sides) this is a big plate of food and very filling.  The Fish Tacos are made with Mahi Mahi and are lightly battered and served with cabbage, white sauce and some fresh pineapple salsa.  There is a small salsa bar that contains three red salsas and one green salsa.  The "hot" salsa does have some good heat and was perfect on my tacos.  I really enjoyed the fresh sides too.  The cole slaw with chipotle sauce is a bit spicy and delicious as is the cucumber and jicama salad.  The other salad I tried was filled with garbanzo beans and fresh veggies.  All really good.  My wife enjoyed the typical refried beans and rice with her meal and loved it.  In Hawaii we can't be picky about good Mexican restaurants.  They just don't exist.  Senor Pepe for Fish Tacos is my new destination.  It is by far better than Wahoo's and most everyplace else that tries to serve a Fish Taco here.
