    Esquite Cup
    Nadchen A.

    We just ordered take out so we can't comment about the place's ambiance. Anyways after a long day roaming around the parks, we decided to order from here. Surprisingly they were still open late at night. My friend and I ordered two Esquites for ourselves and she also got a refresca. I was very surprised to see our order. Our Esquite cup was $7.20 but it was much smaller than I thought it would be. It honestly looked like a sauce cup for Birria. Our cup was okay, it wasn't bad but it wasn't great. It had all the right ingredients. It tasted very average. But the thing that got me was that this was $7.20. I was under the impression that it would be a medium-ish size, and not the container that stores three lime slices when people order tacos for take out. The quality did not correlate with the price whatsoever. For me, it's three stars for the Esquite Cup but two stars overall just because it was disappointing. My friend also said that her drink wasn't that good too. So all in all, los precios (the prices) estan locos. We actually said that the prices were loco and her drink was burro so that pretty much sums up our experience.

    Finally got to check out this spot out! Let me tell you it didn't disappoint. I ordered the Cali burrito and it's everything I thought. I'd been craving one for a while and this one was as close as I could get to the real thing. (Cali burrito in California) the sauce they put in this was great. It had a little spice to it but nothing crazy. They even put extra on the side for you for the chips. The steak was delicious, no complaints there. Also ordered a side of guac, to be honest nothing too special about this guac. It was good. To order you just use the kiosk, so that was pretty easy. There was a staff member there who would serve the food. I definitely will be coming again! It's in a great spot located by icon park, the actual restaurant is a little hidden but gps took me right there.

    Instagram was right food was Out of control, Burrito is a must, i am not huge fan of burritos but this was special, Cheesy cheese Burrito, I got Steak n Chorizo, you need this in your life. Tacos and nachos all delish. Super impressed with the Empanadas reminded me of Puertorican empanadas dough with Mexican flavor also a must for starters and All the sauces are wow. Definitely a must It's try place. Definitely coming back. Also prices are on par with the food taste and quantity. Service was amazing also. Like the Logo and decor is a pretty cool place.

    I was in the area and wanted some Spanish food, I'm glad I found this spot. Very delicious and quick eats. I loved the fries. The restaurant was very clean.

    Solid spot for Mexican food in Orlando! The food was great. I got the California burrito and it was loaded with flavor, big portions, and everything tasted fresh. The service was quick and friendly even though it was busy, and they made sure everything came out hot. The ambiance is casual and perfect for a late-night bite with clean tables, upbeat energy, and a chill vibe overall. Prices are fair for the portion size too. Definitely a place I'd come back to when I'm craving a good burrito.

    I liked it here! I'm staying at the Holiday Inn across the street and was starving, so happy to find this spot. They have 3-4 gluten free options, and I ended up getting the cheese shrimp tacos. This came with 4 tacos but 8 tortillas, which was wild to me, so I ate each taco with just one tortilla! The cheese on the outside of the tortillas was a lovely touch. The shrimp was delicious and the sauces were divine. Super messy, but very good and satisfying. The place itself is clean and trendy, but I chose to take my food to go. It was done pretty quickly and the staff was great with helping me choose an entree. Was a little bummed that it didn't come with chips (we didn't see them as an add on either but maybe we just missed it). Overall pretty good! Average portion, not enough if you're super hungry, and great flavor.

    Quesabirria and Loco Fries Rancheras
    Alan M.

    I was looking for a late night eat in the area and decided to try El Burro Loco. I have to say, I think I've found my favorite place for late night eats. Their menu offers a twist on traditional Mexican food. It's a fairly small place, but has a decent amount of seating. You order and pickup at the counter. I went and ordered the quesabirria and the loco fries rancheras. It took about 15 mins for my food to come out. They seem to serve all their entrees in To-go containers, even though I said I was eating in. Not an issue, though. I couldn't tell which was better, the quesabirria or the fries. The quesabirria was excellent and stuffed with meat. The flavor of the birria really comes out. As for the fries, they were well seasoned and the toppings were tasty, as well as aesthetically pleasing. I would love to come back for a few of their other creations, such as the Queen's Pizza!

    Horchata topped by a good amount of cinnamon! YUM!

    I finally found a great taco place in Orlando! Ever since moving here two years ago, I've been on the search for a restaurant that serves delicious, authentic tacos and El Burro Loco is it! From meaty tacos to tasty options for vegetarians like me, El Burro Loco is sure to satisfy! Not only was the food and drink delicious, but the service was wonderful as well. I literally can't wait to go back, so I'm going back today! YUM!

    This is a busy eatery. Everything here seems to be made to order, so while the wait may be a bit longer than usual, your food will be fresh! Additionally, Angie was so accommodating when I returned 2 days later to place a dinner pick-up order to feed a boy's volleyball team. She included chips and pico de gallo and a discount you could only typically get when placing online orders. Thank you Angie!

    Place is clean. You can easily miss the place. Sign is not obvious, does not pop out and scream Tacos. Service was ok. Took them 10mins. Place was empty. Ordered the street tacos. 15$ and come in 4 pcs. Came in a double corn tortilla, with all the works- cilantro, onions, green sauce, steak and radish. The steak was tough and bland. The tortilla was what I chewed and tasted. They skimped on the actual ingredients. The street corn came in a cup. A bit expensive at 4$ for a small cup. Corn was fresh, salty and greasy. Had a slight smoke hint.

    Classic Loco fries with Shredded Steak
    James H.

    Stopped by this restaurant during our recent vacation to Orlando. We stayed at Dockside Inn near Universal and this was super close to the resort. We placed an order online and went to pick it up. The restaurant was clean and had a lot of seating for folks who want to dine in. The service was great! We were greeted when we arrived and the little interactions we had from employees was friendly! We got our food pretty quickly. When we got back to our room, we started our feast. We got some classic loco fries, crunchy flautas, Birria Ramen, and chips and queso. The food here was AMAZING! By far the best thing we had in Orlando. The classic loco fries were absolutely delicious. All the sauce on them and the shredded steak was so flavorful. The chicken flautas were perfect as well. My girlfriend got the Birria Ramen and she loved it. She said the flavor was great and it was everything she'd expected it to be. The chips and queso were great as well. The chips were seasoned and the queso was authentic and enjoyable. 100% if you're in the area give this place a try. I've thought about it often after getting home from vacation, especially those loco fries. I wish we had something in Kentucky similar to this!

    This review really deserves a 1-2 star but since it's a local business I pity gave it a 3. Was in town on vacation and we wanted Mexican food so we found this business had decent reviews. I'm used to authentic Mexican food in LA and this place just wasn't it. Their soda fountain wasn't available to order from but we saw the female cook come out and get a fountain drink for herself to drink. The horchata we ordered was horrible. The horchata was thick and tasted like arroz con leche, not horchata. We had to water it down and it was still bad. For 4 plain chicken tacos we paid approx $17. A lengua burrito with some chips was $20. The burrito was horrible, it was just little amounts of lengua with a bunch of lettuce, no rice or beans. We also got the nachos which were just chips with a little meat and lettuce with sour cream. There wasn't even any cheese or anything else. Have never had nachos so bad in my life. Never in my life have I heard of lettuce in nachos. If you're used to authentic Mexican food this isn't the place. They fell far short and we wouldn't recommend this place to anyone. I feel sad that locals or tourist think this is good Mexican food.

    Disclaimer: this review is for the lunch buffet only…read more I went with my family to try the $18.49 all you can eat lunch buffet. This was my first time experiencing a buffet for hispanic food and for this price point in Orlando, this is an amazing value deal. The server regularly brought us out silverware, napkins, and refilled our water. The place is decorated very fun and plays latin music which was lovely Not only was there an unlimited assortment of lunch foods, but an entire bar of fresh toppings for tacos (or rice bowls) and made to order desserts which were included for free! Not everything on the buffet line was the best but given the amount of options, price, and how good the great items are this is still worth a five star rating. I unfortunately did not take pictures of the food before I began devouring everything in sight to the point of near-collapse, but I will do a quick rundown of the buffet highlights: The best meats were the fajita steak, chicken, and shrimp made fresh in cast iron skillets, as well as the chicken lengua which was super flavorful and tender. The mexican rice, beans, fajitas, plantains, and street corn were also excellent. Fresh quesadillas, chips, and corn tortillas on standby with homemade queso and salsas. The flan and mini churros were the best I've ever had. Super rich, decadent Carmel flan. Mini churros hot and crisp on the outside, filled with a gooey soft milk chocolate center. They were delicious. Items that were disappointing: the tamales, mini chicken flautas, and beef chimichangas were just okay, lacking the seasoning and flavor that other dishes had. The beef barbacoa was not as tender or flavorful as the shredded chicken surprisingly. The mixed seafood was itself a mixed bag with some shrimps / scallops overcooked to much while others were perfectly cooked. The chicken mole and beef tri tip were room temperature despite sitting on hot plates. The tri tip also varied widely in doneness throughout the slices and not super tender. The rice pudding was pretty standard, and the tres leches cake was weird as they crumbled the cake into pieces before soaking it.

When I sat down, I ordered the frozen Margarita flight, which came with a watermelon, mango, and strawberry Margarita. All of them were pretty good, but by far the mango was my favorite. It tasted just like you were drinking mango nectar. For my entrée, I ordered the Carne Asada tacos. They had such a great taste, and the portion size was quite generous. I ordered it with rice and beans, and it all left me feeling quite full. The atmosphere is also quite nice. With it being in the heart of downtown orlando, I thought it might be loud and busy in there, but it was actually quite quiet and relaxing. The service was also very quick and prompt to get all of our food. Our waitress made sure to check in with us throughout service to see what we needed!

When we arrived, the restaurant was practically empty, there was no hostess, and we had to wait to be acknowledged. Our server (a Hispanic woman with heavy goth-style makeup--I didn't catch her name) was polite enough, but there were several missed opportunities to improve the experience. The biggest issue was that they were out of multiple menu items we specifically came to try. We had also planned on ordering the duck-themed cocktail that was pictured online, only to be told, "We don't do that anymore." If that's the case, the menu and promotional photos should really be updated. Food: * Chicken Nachos - 3/10: Mostly burnt chips with hard, unmelted cheese. There was barely any chicken, and they lacked flavor. * Watermelon Margarita - 0/10: It was extremely sour. I sent it back and ordered a frozen margarita instead. * Frozen Margarita - Average at best. What was frustrating is that happy hour started about seven minutes later, and our server never mentioned that nearly everything we ordered would have been half-price. A heads-up would have been appreciated. * Street Corn - 6/10: The tableside presentation of cutting it off the cob was nice, but that's really what you're paying for. It could have used much more seasoning, and only two small pieces of corn were served. * Shrimp Tacos - 2/10 * Fish Tacos - 2/10: Both were soggy and lacked flavor. * Spanish Rice - 1/10: Bland and disappointing. Overall, the food was underwhelming, several advertised menu items and drinks weren't available, and the service missed opportunities to enhance the experience. For the prices, I expected much better quality, better communication about happy hour, and a menu that matched what was actually being offered. Unfortunately, I don't see myself returning.
