The Hawaiian Islands are certainly not known for their epic and authentic Mexican food — quite the opposite, actually. Hawaii has a bad reputation as having notoriously sub-par Mexican food. But that doesn’t mean that you aren’t able to find some killer Mexican food across the Hawaiian Islands — as long as you know where to look, that is. And this humble little restaurant, in particular, will satisfy any and all cravings you have for Mexican food, especially if you love burritos the size of your head.

Welcome to Lucy’s Taqueria, a casual eatery in the heart of downtown Hilo that serves up a variety of scrumptious Mexican dishes, including massive burritos.
