I really like this place. It's a tiny little spot and the food is decently priced and tasty. Their salsa is definitely one of my favorites around. It's usually not busy when I go but the service is good and food doesn't take too long. It's definitely not the best Mexican food in town but if you need options I do recommend this place. read more

I had really SLOW service when I went to pick up a burrito for a friend. I figured I'd give them the benefit of the doubt and went back a week later with my husband and 2 kids. We were there half an hour after ordering and still hadn't received our food. The table that walked in a few minutes prior to us was finishing. A table that ordered the same time as us received their food and was half done. Then a couple came in, ordered, was served, had their order corrected, and we still hadn't received our food. When I went to get our money refunded, the girl looked in the kitchen, and from her look and how quickly I was issued the refund, I doubt our food had even been started. read more

The service here tonight was excellent. Both of our waitresses were wonderful. Thank you ladies for the great service. Again I'm so sorry about your rude customer. Just know that you are both great waitresses. Brush it off and keep being the awesome people you are. Thank you for your service and friendly demeanor. Food was great as usual on taco night. read more

That Salsa though! Since moving from the LA area, I have found it difficult to find good authentic Mexican food here on the Central Coast. I am lucky though, because Burrito Loco has some pretty good tacos and salsa. The food here holds me over until I can get back into LA for the tasty Mexican food I have grown accustomed to. Taco Tuesday is fun and they have a good selection of tacos to choose from. I have ordered burritos from here and personally they aren't as good as the tacos which I find interesting given the name. At any rate, whether you make an order to go or you sit inside the food is pretty solid. I don't know what they do with the salsa, (generous amount of salt and garlic. . . maybe) but it is delicious. In fact they sell it to take home... Grab yourself a bag of Taco Works from Vons or Costco, get some salsa Burrito Loco and enjoy yourself. You will be glad you did.

The salsa is amazing - the food just OK. The greatest downfalls to this restaurant are that the customer service is absolutely TERRIBLE, the food portions are inconsistent (amount of meat and such in burritos) and it takes a looooong time for food to be prepared/served. The girls working here would really benefit by paying more attention to their customers rather than chattering about whatever drama is going on in their lives. read more

Ummmm....tacos. Went on a Monday night when it was "All You Can Eat Tacos" night. GREAT TACOS!!! Hard-shelled beef tacos with plenty of lettuce, tomatoes and cheese. My wife had the carnitas soft-shelled tacos. She had to stop at two, I had to stop at 7. These were EXCELLENT!!! Would return in a heartbeat. My kind of place! read more

I have never sat down for a meal here to be honest. I only ever go in to purchase their DELICIOUS (award-winning) salsa and a bag of chips. It is cheap and comes in a huge 12oz container. Perfect for taking to parties or to work. I love it, and my husband does too. The restaurant atmosphere isn't the best though, which is why I would never dine-in. It kind of smells sweaty. The girl taking order was sweet and helpful though. I appreciated her patience and capability to handle me with her takeout phone always ringing! Poor thing... read more

I didn't get to eat here. I called and asked if they had soup. Yes, alboganas. "What kind of meat is in that?" "I believe it's beef." Could you double check? Is it my own fault, I do not know the recipe? I have no idea what kind of soup that is but it's crucial I do not eat pork. So, for the lady to not know for sure just turned me off. I left. read more

Let's face it, there aren't a lot of great places to eat in Lompoc. But on our holiday family visit, we decided to check it out and were pleasantly surprised. The salsa is FANTASTIC. Service was very friendly, and food was just really good. Beans that came with our plates were delicious, and burritos we got were delicious. read more

This place has one of the best burrito adobados I have ever had, and I have had a lot. This burrito with their salsa is amazing, and worth the 1 hour I drive for it every couple weeks. I have not had a lot else on their menu but their quesadillas, beef tacos and taco salad are all amazing as well. Their menu is expansive and everything no doubt delicious. I highly recommend. read more

Amazing food, great service, and the salsa is FANTASTIC!! Plus, they deliver! What more could you want?!?

GREAT salsa, some of the best salsa I have ever tasted. Food is great too! Service here is... HORRIBLE! Expect to wait quite some time to be served by someone who obviously wants to be doing other things in life. I recommend getting the food take-out :) read more

This food is really delicious! Chips and salsa, on their own, are reeeally good. Burritos are amazing! I love the tortilla they use! Nice and thin, and flavors everything well. read more

TERRIBLE EMPLOYEES. FOOD SUCKS. Im staying across the street at the Motel 6 and my mother and I ordered here to-go and we ordered something pretty simple. 2 burritos (one with no sour cream) with 2 large sodas. No big deal. When we got it back we found out they had put double portions of sour cream in one burrito and the other got one. NOT what we ordered. When we called to let them know their error they wanted to charge us for delivery to fix it even though were across the street. We said were gonna leave this review and they basically said they didnt care. Completely unprofessional. read more

First time trying grub hub the app and thought I'd give it a try. More than two hours later and two phone calls to the restaurant and still don't have my food. What the heck man?!?! So frustrating ... get it together read more

Pretty good but the Buritto Loco on Halycon Road in Arroyo Grande is much better by far.Their Chili Rellenos have more cheese on the Relleno as well as more cheese in the red sauce. A nice touch is the orange slice and a bit of shredded lettuce on your plate that you do NOT get in Lompoc. My friend and I drive all the way from Lompoc to Arroyo Grande just to have lunch at the Buritto Loco on Halycon Road. We went today Saturday Jan 22 and I had two Chili Rellenos and they were delicious! We plan to drive there at least twice a month from now on. Stop by, you won't be disappointed.

Completely confused as to how Shelly D. said that she was there tonight and had wonderful service. I was a very unhappy customer there tonight and I believe Shelly was referring to me as the "rude customer". My best friend & I were craving Burrito Loco tonight as we do often, so we went! We only had about an hour to eat when we arrived. It ended up being a much longer hour trip. We get there, there's one waitress in her 30's and says hi, we sit down.. another younger waitress comes out 10 min later to get our water. She looked irritated, no smile, no hello, just "what to drink?". Which was fine. I was more bothered that it took awhile because I was soooo thirsty haha. There were only 2 tables at the time, so I thought it was odd that it took 10 min for her to get us water. Especially since there were TWO waitresses. I didn't think it was busy at alllll.. We said thank you & continued to look at the menu. Almost TWENTY MINUTES later after we both needed refills on our drinks, chips/salsa and we've BEEN ready to order. Neither waitress checked on us. Younger waitress finally came to get refills but still didn't take our order so before she started walking away, I told her that we were ready to order whenever she was. Food came quick, looked great, nice and hot, etc.I took a bite and unfortunately didn't like the chicken.. which was totally fine with me because I was able to order another meat for my next taco (All you can eat tacos) & my friend was done with her food (took her about 15min) the waitress still never came to check on my food. By that time, I still haven't had more than ONE bite out of my taco. So once I saw the younger waitress finish with a table next to us, I asked her if I could get my next order of tacos but with Carnitas because I didn't really like the chicken. She said yes and said she'll put an order in. Once we checked the time, we realized it took WAY longer than usual. Once I saw her again about 5 min later, I asked her if I could take them to go since we needed to leave & I still never got to eat. She told me no since it's "all you can eat tacos" which I understood but was still irritated because I felt that it wasn't my fault. If she would've checked on us as quick as any other restaurant, I would've been totally fine with staying and eating there so I just said never mind. I just didn't think it should've been so complicated. She said sorry that she didn't check on us, but that she was in the bathroom THROWING UP because her stomach wasn't feeling good. SHE DEALT WITH OUR FOOD AND DRINKS?!?!!?!?!!! So I told her that she should probably go home and not handle food. She then made a rude face and said "what the heck, I didn't even touch your food". I was just so in shock, Me and my friend both looked at each other so puzzled. She had the other older waitress come, I tried to so nicely explain to her what happened. The tacos, the long waiting, the puking waitress.. she was very nice at first, left to talk to her coworker.. came back, thinking that I'd get some type of "oh I'm so sorry" but no. She literally had an attitude the whole time after she came back from talking to the younger waitress. The older waitress in her 30s then told me that the younger waitress never said she threw up and told me "her stomach has been hurting & she was feeling dizzy sooooo I don't know why you're saying she threw up. She never threw up". I was so fed up that I just said never mind and asked if we could just get my friends check. And maybe to tell the younger waitress to not tell customers that she threw up then because it makes us guests grossed out.... Telling her that did ZERO JUSTICE. The older waitress must've got upset by my remark and says, while walking away from my table so the whole damn restaurant can hear, in a smart ass tone - "Perfect, one check...... annnnd you're not eating (as she looked at me, smiling) then started walking away and said loudly "next time there's no need for your attitude" omg I was so pissed off by then being that I literally did NOT once have a rude attitude, tone, any of the above. I responded back and told her that THEY WERE THE ONES WITH ATTITUDE THE WHOLE TIME!! My friend paid, we left and we will never look back. So Shelly D. Not sure if you'd like to re post a review now that you have two sides to the one story you commented on. But the floor is yours Worst service ever. At least by those two waitresses. I've never ever had service like that there before. And with this being my very first bad review, hopefully that goes to show‍ read more

my boyfriend and I have tried a lot of the mexican restaurants in Lompoc and this place has the best burritos! they're always big and stuffed with filling! not to mention their salsa is the BEST salsa i've ever had. it's super cilantro-y but i love cilantro. i've eaten here quite a few different times and they're always consistent! read more

Ate here about a year or so and it was really good, but this time on our 8 taco dinner meal, which was a take out, it was terrible. The tacos were over cooked and the chips seemed old but just reheated. The chicken and meat used for the tacos was like a paste, really strange. The rice and beans were good, but that's it. The quality was below standard and is priced too high. Definitely will not eat here again. One chance to shine and only one chance to lose a customer. read more

Since when does this place charge $1.99 for a basket of chips? Been coming here for years....never once paid for extra chips. No other places in Lompoc charge for chips...how do they deem this as competitive? Never going back. The server handed me my check, I put the cash on the table, then she came back and told me she needed my check back because she forgot to charge me for the chips. WHAT? You make a mistake and tell me to give you back the check!!?? No way. I told her to take the $2 tip I was leaving and put it towards their coveted chips. Going other places. read more

This place is a joke. If you've been to Lompoc then you know there are great places for mexican food. Burrito Loco however, is not one of them, although they are the only mexican place that delivers. So, it works out ordering from them from time to time. I had quite the unpleasant experience with them during my last order, which will be my final order ever!! I ordered several items, an entree, a burrito, several ala carte items and an order of chips and salsa the one pound option. Grand total a bit under $40. Happy to pay cause I'm hungry. After all the food I had ordered I politely ask if they can give me some extra salsa, because who doesn't use a lot of salsa? I mean Taco Bell for goodness sake will give you as many salsa packets your heart desires. Which, they then replied that I can only have two salsas, now everyone knows the size of the little dixie cups restaurants use for salsa right, well, that clearly wouldn't be enough for the amount of food I ordered, and not nearly enough for my liking. So what it boiled down to is they refused to give me anymore salsa then two, which is just ridiculous seeing that anyone could easily use those two on a burrito alone. Frustrated and disappointed I, without hesitation, cancelled my order and asked for a refund. With so many Mexican restaurants in Lompoc that offer an unlimited salsa bar, or happily supply good customers when you ask for more of a good thing, it baffles me that a place like this, where the food isn't nearly as good, wouldn't try to make customers a bit happier. They have undoubtedly lost myself as a customer and will tell everyone and anyone I come across to steer clear, starting with this review. Burrito Loco try taking care of your customers, a bit of customer service goes along way, especially to the folks that help you keep your lights on. If you did, maybe you wouldn't have to nickel and dime them for stuff your competitors are giving out for free. read more

I ordered the nacho supreme with carne from here. Good portions, loved the guacamole, jalapenos and the beans! The meat wasn't the cheap ground beef with actual diced strips of steak meat!! YUM! The only down side was that they used artificial cheese but it still tasted great. Loved the spicy salsa that came with the nachos! Made the whole meal worth while! I would love to come back to try other things on the menu here! read more

The food was sub-par to say the least. It definitely didnt impress me. The salsa was not very good, the chicken enchiladas were tasteless, and the rice was dry. It was not the cleanest restaurant by any means and I was afraid to let my kids touch things. The service was excellent but the poor girl was running herself ragged serving all the tables, answering phones, and working the cash register. I would not recommend this place. read more

Burrito Loco is my favorite Mexican food in town. The chips and salsa are the best and the low-fat/vegetarian quesadilla is amazing! It comes with rice and beans. You get the full beans, they're not mushy. Out of the 10 years I lived in Lompoc, this has been my favorite the entire time. Even after I moved, I still have to get it every time I go visit. read more

The best salsa!! The best food LOVE LOVE LOVE this place wish they would open one in Santa Barbara!!

The salsa was great but my carnitas was waaaay too salty and fatty. I really couldn't eat much of it. But my friend's food was great. The service was okay, a little slow. read more

Food takes a while to cook but they cook it fresh. Burritos are huge and stuffed with fresh meats and veggies. The salsa here is best around! read more

They have the best beans and rice and there carne asada and guacamole burrito is amazing!

Worst service ordered carne asada fries they gave me a burrito lol when I got there they literally have me 20 fries drizzled in cheese

Probably three stars for the food, but they didn't give me a fork and I didn't find that out until I got back to the motel, so I had a very messy burrito to eat. read more

Stopped here on my way down to SoCal. Great prices, their chips are the best along with their salsa. Must try their vegetarian and shrimp burritos. read more

I personally don't like to complain but this place is not my favorite for two reasons: the service is slow. I went there last week and I only saw one person working. It took awhile to even get her to come over and get our order. The food is not the best, there are plenty of other burrito placed in town. I go to those instead. read more

went here with a coworker for lunch. she ordered 2 carnitas tacos, HUGE! she ended up making two more tacos from all of the meat it was filled wit, she loved them. the salsa was really good as well, nice flavor. my only complaint is the steak quesadilla. there was hardly any cheese inside so the two pieces didn't stay together, and when picked up to eat, the whole I sides came falling out. I had to eat my quesadilla with a knife and fork. the beans inside didn't have much flavor as well, plain pinto beans will return. gotta try something different this time around read more

the food was good, but not what we were expecting. we thought we were getting fried beef tacos and they were not and in the burritos we were wanting refried beans but there was none. It was good but a little disappointing at the same time. My boyfriend was rushed out and didn't get to check the order. read more

Good place. Ive always enjoyed the tacos and quesadilla. A good choice when you need some quick Mexican.

Good quick Mexican food. Service is good. Salsa is awesome, come here to get just the salsa sometimes. There are definately better Mexican food places in town, but this is a good little spot to mix it up a little bit. Give the salsa 5 stars! read more

What happened to the great food they used to serve here?? I used to eat at the Orcutt store years ago and food was wonderful.. I have been to the one in Lompoc and Orcutt recently and the quality went down. The tacos are tiny.. Seriously small? The chili verde/green sauce is a complete different than before and taste horrible.. So sad I'm assuming that they may have changed owners and recipes.. read more

I've been eating here for years. They have the best carnitas & salsa. Salsa can be purchased to go. It's in a mini fridge in back near cash register. I always have some in my fridge. Prices are reasonable and food is good. I love chile rellanos. They have nice lunch specials which include a drink. Good service. read more

Very over-priced and very small portions. We thought that they gave us child portions. We won't be going back!

YUM! Delicious Mexican food with award-winning salsa. A popular with locals. Great customer service, the cook came out and asked if everyone was enjoying their food. Very friendly workers! read more
