Maui Tacos

A Vacation You Can Eat™
Overview
Recognized by "Nation's Restaurant News" as a Hot Concept winner, Maui Tacos® is "A Vacation You Can Eat™". Maui Tacos combines a cool, hip and laid back dining experience, with exceptional food and the spirit of aloha. When you visit a Maui Tacos, you land on an island paradise where you'll find a fusion of fresh Mexican foods paired with the exotic tastes of Hawaii.

Hawaiian BBQ pork burritos, fresh fish tacos, chicken enchiladas, mango salads, pineapple salsa and coconut flan are just a taste of the itinerary. Where permitted, Maui Tacos also offers beer, wine and liquor including unique specialty drinks.

Additionals
Internationally acclaimed celebrity chef and restaurateur Mark Ellman opened the first Maui Tacos 23 years ago on the Island of Maui in 1993.

The store opened with rave reviews worldwide and was followed by several more locations opening across the Pacific. Thanks to our trademark salsas and award winning chef-driven menu, Maui Tacos and has risen to celebrity status. Featured on Food Network shows shows like Emeril Lagasse's and being ranked as one of the top 20 tacos in the United States by ZAGAT has helped MAUI TACOS create a huge buzz and massive following across the globe.

To our franchisees, our chef-driven Maui-Mex Menu and fun Island-Style culture represent a marketable competitive advantage with an opportunity to distinguish our Fast Casual restaurants from fast food and mom-and-pop Mexican restaurants. We offer single and multi-unit franchise opportunities are available in Hawaii and select mainland States in the U.S.
