I missed going to OMG when it was near Puck's Alley - so glad I don't have to brave the Waikiki traffic/parking anymore to get my burrito bowl fix! Think Chipotle, but better (plus they have great margaritas).
Staff are always friendly and portion size is solid. Love this place! -

Located on the corner of Waialae Avenue and Saint Louis drive, you can't miss it. There's a few free stalls available in the front, but it's a bit hard to get out of there with the busy cross streets. There are also more parking stalls across the street, but you do have to pay. I like to go during off hours because I know there will be free parking right outside and the traffic on the cross streets are light.
It's both a take out and sit down location. Although I've always ordered take out, I would one day sit down as it's BYOB.
My favorite is the carne asada fries. It's a bit pricey, but they give a lot with a lot of carne asada. Yummmmm. I kind of wish they had ala carte portions so I can order one taco with my fries. I do like variety of foods and it's too much to order the fries and a meal. Everything is so fresh that it's best to eat it at that moment than to save it for later.
The staff here were a hit or miss. The first time, they weren't very friendly and on their cellphones while helping us, but the second time it was okay. -

3.5 stars!
Yet another new not so new restaurant that just opened in Waialae area (this is their 3rd location) so i knew i had to have a review for it! So here it is
-Ambience: located where Sabrinas used to be. Nice and clean inside
-Parking: limited but you can still find a stall easily.
(At least i did lol)
-Service: everyone was super nice and friendly.
-Food:
Tried their carnitas burrito and it was good but its pretty americanized to my liking. The rice was good though. I enjoyed it but i prefer to stick to my more original mexican food. Not bad though.
It was a big burrito for $9ish -

Hmm. For some reason this business has two yelp pages for the same location. Lol.
But omg it's back! And it's near my house! I was excited that 1. It's not in the middle of Waikiki 2. It's 5 mins away from me! I used to go to the pucks ally location before it was torn down. I eventually forgot about the place and then craved it one random day and it was gone! I noticed over the years they re opened in Waikiki kind of by alohilani but who in the world is going there unless you work around that area or you're doing a staycation in a hotel on that side of Waikiki.
The new (2nd) location is In kaimuki. They took over the Sabrina's restaurant location and is next to ripple of smiles so as you know parking can be a bit of a challenge in that particular area. But I somehow went on a off hour and had no problems with parking.
It wasn't busy in there at all. Actually after I walked in two other people came in after me. The burritos start from $9 and you order from where the door is and then pay at the end after you tell them what you want in your burrito. It was a little confusing at first but I wish maybe they had a sign or something that says order here. And then another one that said pay here. Unless there was one and I'm blind.
I got the carnitas burrito and it was a little bit on the salty side. But it was good overall. It wasn't what I remembered it to be so I don't know if I'll be coming back that often especially when there's something similar right down the street.
Oh yea! Even tho they have burritos they won't be able to make you wet burritos for you - the guy behind me asked and they said no. Lol. -

I work in the neighborhood so I frequent here maybe 2-3 times a week.
I can't resist their Carne Asada Fries and Grilled steak/chicken quesadillas! They even have Kalua Carnitas and Churros!! Everything I've tried tastes awesome.
Kamaaina gets 25% off on Thursdays so, bring your Hawaii ID or drivers license for an awesome deal.
Thank you Ray and his crew for your awesome customer service!
