Really good food, great service, great drinks!
I love everything about this restaurant. It is soooo very quaint, intimate and just unique. It is so very clean and the food and drinks are amazing! I live across from this place but never thought about going there until recently. I was very pleasantly surprised at the atmosphere, the friendly and efficient staff and most of all, how delicious the food is. I highly recommend this place It's a hidden gem. You won't regret it.
I remember coming in here, always clean and the people are so friendly and kind. The inside is small but bery decorated and vibrant. They always get my order right. The owner or male manager was very talkative and friendly. Overall good service and excellent manager!
The food was great, service was alittle slow with there not being many people in the restaurant but the food definitely made up for it. Was delicious.
They seem to be trying to serve Mexican and American folks, and doing it pretty well. It's NOT a taqueria. Full menu, a good effort at decoration Saddles for bar stools. Some one is trying hard to build a brand, and more power to them. The clientele is 50/50 mix. My litmus test is Chilaquiles. Their effort is pretty good. Autentico chilaquiles is a pretty dismal dish of leftover breakfast recycled for a quick mid day meal. The typical Gringo version is basically Nachos with a big portion of sauce over them. Theirs is a little of both. I liked it, and it's a generous portion. Do it. Go.
**El Taco Loco: A Gem in Birmingham's Culinary Crown** Upon the glowing recommendation of a friend from Guatemala, I ventured into El Taco Loco, nestled in the heart of Birmingham. The experience was delightful from the outset, with a warm welcome complemented by a serving of **crisp chips and zesty salsa** that set a promising tone. Service was swift and personable, thanks to **Silvia**, whose professionalism and friendliness were as refreshing as the beverages she served. Her expertise shone through as she navigated me through the extensive menu, ensuring I made the perfect choice for my palate. The **Molcajete** was a revelation, a generous feast brimming with succulent meats that tantalized the taste buds. But the true star was the **homemade picante sauce** crafted from dry Serrano peppers. This fiery concoction was a game-changer, enhancing the meal with its robust flavor and just the right amount of heat. I couldn't resist suggesting they bottle this liquid gold; it's a product destined for success. The promise of exploring more of their expansive menu beckons me to return. As I departed with **churros** and a **Mexican Pizza** in tow, I was already anticipating the joy of sharing my findings. Stay tuned for more on these take-home treats! **Verdict:** El Taco Loco is a must-visit for anyone seeking authentic Mexican cuisine with a side of exceptional service. **Highly recommended!**
El Taco 🌮 Loco is my favorite place to enjoy authentic food. I ordered three soft cornshell tacos, beef, chorizo, and beef tongue. As usual, it was cooked to perfection. Top with fresh white onions, cilantro with red and green sauce. Let me tell you something: the margaritas 🍹 are a great device to counter the spicy sauce. Perfection. The service was great and attentive.
Food is passable i give the food a 7/10 ,service is always great and atmosphere, the bar is the best part,bartender guy is always on point👌
The food is great but they always get my order wrong. I understand people make mistakes but it's every time. They offer to fix but I don't have time to wait. Like completely different dish than what I ordered. I tried them again and they checked order before I left . It was delicious. Thank you!
Certainly a different approach to Mexican food. Coming from South Texas, there are subtle differences. I had the warache, which was fine. We ordered choriqueso, which was so different from how it is prepared in Texas. This one was more of a cheese sauce versus actual melted cheese with chorizo. Still a decent place to eat.
4pm on a Wednesday, they have 0 water. Ordered a $13 burrito, it was the size of the palm of my hand. Had a tiny spoon full of meat.
Red sauce used on enchiladas and burritos is not that good. Plz improve that recipe and quality of meat used in their ground beef seems sub par as well. I should have went down the street to the restaurant on Columbiana road instead!
I brought two plates of carne asada to go , on both of the plates, the meat was raw and when I called the restaurant about the issue, they told me to bring them back their food, when I arrived at the restaurant they had a very bad attitude as soon as they saw me walk in. They knew they were wrong but didn't even apologize. They said the steak was not raw because it was cut in pieces. Very unprofessional place and I will not be returning.
We ate here and there were quite a few things wrong but honestly the thing that bothered me the most is they brought us some watered down nonsense with spinach in it and called it spinach dip even though it had the consistency of warmed chicken broth. I have seen better queso in a jar at a gas station but that wasnt the worst part. 30 seconds after they set this cheese soup nonsense on our table we waived the waitress back over and said we dont want it as it wasnt good quality. We didnt eat it or anything we immediately knew we didnt want it she called to who I am assuming is the owner and he comes to the table to then argue with us about how we cant just send it back if we ordered it. If you dont want people to send it back then perhaps do better and next time dont serve something that looks like water that cheese took a bath in once. The owner is rude and honestly if it wasnt for him coming to argue with us about his cheese water I wasnt even going to bother leaving a review. Do better! Serve better product and people wont send it back.
