    The plastic bowl for salsa.
    Phil R.

    Food is just OK nothing exciting not even close to great. The wait staff is extremely rude. While waiting on my food, I went to the restroom. The wait staff put my food on a random table not knowing where I was going to sit. After I sat down the server asked me to move tables rather than bringing the food to me. I was served chip's and salsa. However the salsa was served in this very small plastic container like you would get from McDonald's to put ketchup in from one of those pump stations. I asked for an extra salsa to put on my burrito and was told that would be an extra charge. So, I had to choose from using the salsa on my burrito or with the chips. I choose the burrito and didn't eat the chips. Will not return

    my heart hurts reading this...

    True Story: even after hearing the term Mexi-Cali thrown around for decades I had no idea what it meant. seriously... and after coming here a bunch of times and enjoying more than a few "California burritos" (the ones with fries in 'em) I read the sign carefully and figgered out it's a blend of Mexican - Califoreign eats. Mexi Cali... so yeah, California Burritos! and now they got eight types of hot doggery for the bilingually epic-curious... emphasis on epic! so good and not just because 'here'. Campechena looks like a top-split hawiianese sweet sop with an beefy 12cm baconaise hotdog dropped in and covered with the best of stuff: chorizo, cilantros, tomatillo salsa, onion, and an odd avocado-green crema. add a basket o' chips plus salsa, one coldy-cold Corona, and cup for icy waters in the casual comfort of Burrito Loco with some age appropriate zippy samba-salsa-overhead swingy-dancey music and good help... yep, it's just like that but . sadly, without margaritas. if the strip and surroundings were a bit more sketchier this would be perfect...

    Absolutely 5 stars - food and service was on point! Small establishment on the end of a strip mall, and a small dining hall. Service was good, staff was very friendly and customer focused. We all ordered so many different menu items which was nice so we could taste different flavors. All of the dishes were plentiful, flavorful and packed with great ingredients. Highly recommend. I hate that others had a bad experience because ours was so great

    Get in the car and go get some grub. Amazing place for great tacos, service, and nice Tex-mex decor set up. My only qualm would be to add perhaps homemade horchata with a dairy free option but that's too much to ask lol. Overall, great place for grub. It's always so good I forget to take a picture of the food hahaha.

    Carne Asada- more like ground beef

    Street tacos are expected for the Carolinas. I'm a bit biased as I have been to Tijuana and southern Cali for street tacos. The steak is like ground beef almost. And the tortillas are very thick. Still has good flavor though! I'd order it again. The cheese dip comes in a small ramekin. Wasn't thrilled with that. It was tasty! Yellow cheese, runny. It was good for myself. Not very shareable.

    Chips with salsa, quest and guacamole

    A Facebook group I belong to recommended this place saying that it had California Style Tex Mex. I'm not sure if that's true, but the food here is fantastic! And the service is even better! It's tucked in an unassuming almost defunct strip mall in Mooresville, and when you pull into the parking lot just look where all of the cars are congregated...that's where you need to be. You order at the counter and then they'll bring your order to you. That's not always my favorite model for a restaurant, but when I'm here on a quick lunch break, I love the casualness of it and paying upfront so I can be in and out as fast as I want. The server at the front who takes the orders is the MOST awesome human. He's funny too! I asked him if I could have a fruit punch with my order and his answer was "of course you can, this is America." Love the big booths that flank the restaurant's walls, so comfy! I opted for a table in the middle today since it was the only thing open and clean. Still comfy! The restaurant has a fun vibe, too. Lots of cool posters and stuff hanging on the walls to stare out while you wait on your food. Ahhh, the food: YUMMY! I got fish tacos. They were so good! Battered and fried, they weren't diet food, but so worth it. They are served with a jalapeno crema, cabbage, and diced tomatoes. Simple and perfect. They are served with Chips and Salsa, and I opted to add on guacamole and queso. Which was the smartest thing I'd done that day. The guacamole was incredibly fresh and chunky with diced tomatoes. So very good! The salsa has a smoky taste from the chipotle. The queso was creamy and spicy, too. I could have just gotten that and been happy! I can't wait to take my Mexican food-loving kids back! SOON!

    I have heard about Burrito Loco for a long time and finally had the opportunity to visit. I am so glad that I did. It doesn't look like much from the outside but its worth it. I had the Loco Burrito and my wife had the Loco Bowl. We used to live in California and we know good mexican food. The portions were good and the selections had really good flavor. Really enjoyed the experience and would repeat

    Taco Loco
    Bill W.

    Not as good as it used to be Don't know what happened but this place used to be excellent. they focused on simple Mexican Street Food and let the contrast in taste, and textures speak for themselves. Now it's attempt to pile on as much as you can of as many different ingredients. not all of which compliment each other. Stopped for lunch a couple of weeks ago. Nice place with festive atmosphere. You order at the counter and they bring your meal out to you. To control the flow, the hostess has been known to step away front the counter to allow the kitchen time to catch up. I ordered the Taco Loco which was adobo steak, pepper jack cheese, guacamole, pico de gallo, cotija cheese and chipolte creama. Contrasting but not complementing flavors. Portion size is huge to the point that is is a sloppy proposition eating, particularly when you pick it up, the crema serves as a lubricant and everything want to slide off. This is a case where they needs to go back to what they used to do and do well. That is served traditional Mexican Street Dishes and let the native taste and textures speak for themselves. This is one reason that Mexican Cuisine is so popular.

    I found a bug in my food. When I called about it the person laughed about it, then denied that they laughed after I confronted them about it. They did end up refunding my meal though.

    Chips, queso, and salsa. The salsa is delicious!

While the menu is more selective I found everything to be far better in taste and how it is cooked! Today we shared the Mediterranean appetizer with hummus and tzatziki. Hummus is smooth and have a tahini forward flavor. My spouse and I both liked it. Tzatziki is exceptional. It is one of my favorite sauces in the world and this is great. Pita was a wonderful texture and taste wise. I ordered the chicken plate. It came out sizzling hot like fajitas traditionally do. The chicken was temperature right out of the oven, juicy and an excellent texture. Couscous on the side was beautifully cooked and had a nice touch of spice to it. The other metal bowl on my platter had a greek village style salad with diced cucumbers, diced red onions and cut in half mini tomatoes. Spouse had a Turkish pizza. The seasoning had a nice spice and kick to it. He enjoyed his meal. Spouse ordered 2 beers on draft. One of the beers was one he had before not on draft and was thrilled to try it on draft as he liked it way more. He was happy with their beer on draft selection. When deciding whether to choose the birthday or neapolitan cake we asked the gentleman at the register which he thought was better or more special. He recommended Neapolitan. It was absolutely perfect and delicious! I have never had a cake quite like it. Would totally choose it again! Very happy with the food, quality, temperature, texture and juiciness. All far surpasses it previously. Will return very soon. FYI they can only take cash tips so bring some cash.

Staff was friendly and very accommodating. Santiago was my waiter and was as professional as any five star restaurant waiter I've ever been served by. All staff was bilingual and attentive. The food was excellent. It started with salsa and chips. Probably the best I've ever had in any Mexican restaurant which includes Mexico. They had one salsa, but it wasn't too hot or too mild. I think they found the perfect heat to accommodate most. My entrée was the chicken fajita, which was abundant with a quality second to none.
