Just ordered $1.00 tacos for Taco Tuesday. They have lots of options such as carne asada, pastor, carnitas, barbacoa, and more. My order also included tortilla chips and salsa on the side. My husband loves their carne asada tortas. I love their food and their customer service is excellent read more

After coming here to get food, I would say that my experience here is pretty chill. The burrito I got was a really good and delicious. They told me they had some type of a five dollar burrito deal but I paid $10 for the bigger burrito. Would I recommend people to come here? Yeah. This place is local and it's a very good business. If I had to read this on yelp with my own terms, I would give it an 8.5 out of 10. read more

One of my favorite little local joints. The ladies up front are always kind, fast, and serve with a smile on their face. I've tried breakfast sandwiches, burritos, posole, and more. Everything is delicious, and the posole has been a go to now that the weather is cooling down. Do yourself a favor and support them! read more

Located across the street from AMC Norwalk 20, it was a convenient place to have a late lunch after watching an early movie. It's surprisingly spacious on the inside with plenty of seating. The menu is a bit confusing & overwhelming so we took a moment deciding what we were going to order. My Crew loves Mexican food, but mostly for the tasty meats, beans, rice & tortillas--not for the spicy sauces or the salsas--so we always have to stress that their orders need to be plain. When we try new places, there's always a bit of anxiety as to whether or not the order is going to be placed correctly. But the cashier seemed to really understand what we wanted & she was very friendly about it. The order came to our table in a timely manner & thankfully, it came as the boys had asked for it to. I asked my husby & my sons if they liked the taste & they all seemed to agree it was "okay". They compared it to another restaurant we frequent & made a general consensus that they prefer the other restaurant. My youngest son complained that the tortilla chips tasted burnt. Sorry. As for me, I ordered the Spicy Spareribs. I don't have any problem with spicy sauces and/or salsas & both are delicious here. While no expert on Mexican food, I enjoyed my food. It was nice & spicy & quite enjoyable. The meat was tender & the salsas tasted fresh to me. Although it was a pleasant experience, we will not be going out of our way to eat here again. But please don't let that stop you. Give it a try. read more

I usually order tacos from here but today i ordered the burrito & it was delicious! I love this restaurant & the workers are so sweet.

Purchased a bean and cheese burrito from there and when I opened to eat it the cheese had barely melted and the beans were barely warm. Tasted like can beans and not fresh. Big disappointment. read more

Good food and nice people behind the counter. Had the wet green chile burrito and it was delicious. Reasonably priced.

First time here, but not the last! This is an amazing family owned restaurant. We stopped in for the taco Tuesday 1.00 taco special, we got the carne asada , pastor , and carnitas, all of which were flavorful and fresh.they gave us 3 salsas ( the salsa verde was my fave) We tried the chili verde burrito wet, and O.M.G. They won us over. Gracias por todo , Taco locco, we will see you soon! read more

25 min for a burrito And the place was empty. I don't know why I keep coming back try to give him another chance.

I came here only because my husband was getting a haircut next door and when I came in I suddenly had that Vibe of stepping into grandma's house and I loved the fact that the food we're all pictured on the walls because I'm visual and the food that I ordered was as good as the photo that I saw initially so basically it was exactly as I expected. As I that waiting for my husband to finish and waited for my food a older Mexican lady gave me my dish on to the table and even laid it out for me as if it was ready for a picture. I forgot to mention that as I walked in other customers came in before me, acknowledged me, and even said good morning we then continue to have a conversation about Mexican food and how great it was. I love Mexican people I love Mexican food I love anything Mexican is even married a Mexican Mexican food is life. Thank you for the great Services I'll be coming back then my whole family. I love authenticity and this place definitely gave it. read more

Everthing is nice about the restaurant but the prices are expensive for everything on the menu.

The best authentic Mexican food I've had, the joint is owned and operated for the last 23 years by this adorable elderly couple... they were so warm, and informative. We got the SUPER LOCO'S burritos, and omg they didn't disappoint. Food was superb to the point where our mouths wanted more, but were about to go into a coma, absolutely impossibly to have finished those enormous portions. You'll be missing out if you don't stop by!!!!! read more

Cashier is friendly and greeted well. Ordered 2 steak and 2 pastor tacos Tortilla chips were cold and stale Waitresses are friendly I informed Delia the chips were stale she kindly exchanged the chips for fresh warm chips. The pastor and steak tacos are great no complaints here. Salsa bar is filled with mild, hot sauces limes, marinated carrots and jalapeños. Great for taco Tuesdays read more

Fantastic first time experience. My husband had the tamales and chicken flautas. The sauce on the tamales was flavorful and the flautas were prepared perfectly. I had one al pastor taco and beef taquitos. The beef had so much more flavor than other places I've eaten. The portions were all generous and we probably over ordered. They provide chips at the table and have a salsa bar. The restrooms were clean and smelled pleasant. (A biggie for me!) All of the staff were friendly and helpful. Over all a great dining experience! read more

Food was great and the meat was seasoned to perfection. The woman who took my order was very nice and sweet. 10/10 will definitely recommend

Here's the exact conversation as it took place right in front of me, after I've already paid for 2 pork tamales. Cashier: "Hey, can I get an order of two pork tamales to go?" Cook: "We ran out already. We only have chicken." Cashier: "Aw, man. Why didn't you tell me earlier? She already paid with her card." Cook: "I did tell you already" Cashier: "When? I didn't hear you. Oh, well. Just give her chicken." Cook: "Are you sure?" Cashier: "Yeah, just hurry so I can get her going" PS. Thier conversation was all in spanish. But for the entire staff here, I'd like to tell you one thing... Asegúrense que la persona enfrente no entiende lo que estan haciendo si no van a pedir permiso sustituír algo. Tengo los ojitos así, pero eso no indica nada. La neta, si me hubieran dicho algo, este reviso habia tenido más estrellas. Me gustó el sabor de los tamales.... Pero lástima que el servício aquí falta mucho. read more

I was under time constraints this afternoon, and this was one of the restaurants close to where I needed to be. Hence, my options were limited. El Taco Locco had all the indications of an authentic Mexican restaurant. Instead of servers working to go to school, there were older Hispanic ladies who spoke fluent Spanish. I was thoroughly prepared to flaunt my extensive knowledge of the Spanish language: por favor (please) dos (two) fish (fish) tacos (tacos). But alas, it wasn't necessary. I admit, I was still in trepidation because there were copious photos of various dishes, none of which were fish tacos. But I calculated that risk by considering the fact that I had to be done with lunch in 15-20 minutes. Clearly, not enough time to wander about. The fish taco consisted of one small piece of fish on top of 2 small tortillas. It was garnished with chopped cabbage and chopped tomatoes. That was it. No creamy white sauce that embellishes other fish tacos I've eaten. And to make the matters worse, the battered fish was bland. The side order of guacamole I ordered may have been out of a can. It had too much water content. The server brought a bottle of tarter sauce, which I promptly used to resort to damage control. It made it worse. The salsa bar had a variety of salsas, none of which were palatable. I left El Taco Locco in utter defeat and self loathing for paying for flavorless food in money and calorie quota. read more

Well it's the first time I try this place and they serve plenty of chips & pick your own salsa from the salsa bar. The chips didn't feel all too fresh (not as crispy). I waited a while for my torta. At least 15-20min & it was just me. The place had no AC. Not sure if that was just my luck it wasn't working today. But it was 93 degrees outside. Inside? Hotter, even with ceiling fans & the back door with the screen didn't help. I saw quite a few customers fanning themselves. It looked half busy. When the torta de milanesa arrived, the meat inside was hot. Which is good. So the torta wasn't terrible. It was good. But I didn't really enjoy it because it was too hot in there so I ate fast and got the heck out of there. If I ever decide to go back and give it a second chance, I'll be walking all the way in before ordering just to check if the AC is working & if it's cool. Otherwise forget it. read more

If you're looking for some good Mexican food, this place isn't bad. The cheese enchilada plate was good. The carnitas taco was also good (add onions and the green salsa). The chile relleno had a good flavor to it, but needed more cheese and the breading more crispy. The red chunky salsa in the salsa bar was my favorite. It had a kick to it and the flavor was excellent. The waitress was very nice, the decor small but comfy. Priced right for what you get. read more

Good stuff. Got the fish, carnitas, and pastor tacos. All good. About 4-5 bites in size. Nice salsa bar to top them on your own. They serve the food to your table, with chips, after ordering at the counter. Staff was a very sweet lady. Not the best seasoned meat but not bland. Good portions. Salsas were average plus. $13 for 2 ppl, 6 tacos, and a horchata. I'd go back... read more

Had to go someplace while waiting for paperwork at the registrar across the street. I walked I. And really wasn't expecting much. I ordered the chicken taquito combo, to be safe and my mom ordered the fish fillet combo. The fish was so good. Two big fillets, really well seasoned. Rice and beans were super good and the ladies are just as pleasant as can be. Definitely recommend read more

Fast service and food portions are big. Huevos rancheros with beans and breakfast potatoes is very filling. To me the food was very standard tasting but not bad. Salsa bar with a good variety but both the roasted and ancho salsas have lots of oregano which overwhelms. Pictures and menu need a revamp and they do not take American Express credit card for those business travelers. read more

This is my go to place on Sundays I usually go 3 of 4 weeks for some pozole I always get mine with the pata which is awesome. The chorizo burrito are also plentiful my boy loves them it's always his go to plate. There chili verde burrito is always a must as well full of meat and green sauce is a bit spicy but perfect when you eat it with chips. This is a family owned restaurant they actually know me by name and were always greeted with smiles and it's nice to start your Sunday off with good breakfast friendly staff and top off your breakfast with ice cold beer which I normally don't drink but it's so good and worth every penny. This place is a must for a Sunday breakfast......thank you El Taco Loco for making my Sunday breakfast always a great way to start my day. read more

So my brother stopped by this place and got us food. He got me 2 steak tacos with everything. I just have to say these were the worst tacos ever. I'm a taco fan but these were just not good and I want to say it was bc of the salsa they put on the tacos which looked and tasted more like the tomato paste they use on pizza. I gave them 2 stars only bc my brother ordered a torta and that tasted okay. read more

I accidentally stumbled upon this place when I was trying to go to Tacos La Bomba. Tacos La Bomba was closed so my husband and I went here instead. The lady at the front, I think her name was Delia, was so sweet! There is a salsa bar and your order comes with chips. Food: - Cheese Enchilada: My go-to. I ordered it a la carte but it came with a side of tomatoes, lettuce and crema which was a nice surprise. - Al Pastor Taco: really good! They have taco Tuesday specials :) - Shredded Beef Crispy Taco Plate: my husband was just expecting the meat but it came with lettuce, tomatoes, and cheese. Also the shredded beef is probably cooked in with peppers and tomatoes because it had a stew-like consistency. The food was good and the prices are really cheap! I'm definitely going to be back to try their taco Tuesday :) read more

I used to always come to this location, when I lived in the Norwalk area. I was in town, when I remembered this place. Stopped in for dinner. More like a fast casual restaurant. You order your food at the counter and they bring your food to your table. If you dine in,you get free chips and homemade salsa from the salsa bar. I ordered the 2 Chicken enchilada special with a medium drink. My food was really good like I had always remembered. Very good authentic home made Mexican food. Everything I had ordered in the past was very good. Will return when I'm in the area. read more
