How did we not know sooner?! We live less than two miles away... The good thing is, we know now how AWESOME Looks Tacos is! My wife loved her Caldo de res! And my Carnitas plate was tender and delicious. The menu is wonderful; great selection of food and beverages. My wife enjoyed her Texas Margarita with Tanjin rim. The restaurant has an authentic feel with Dia de los Muertos paintings, booths and tables for larger parties. Our server was warm and welcoming, answering our questions and bringing us samples of the pasta soup. Overall, I cannot say enough about Looks Tacos; a truly satisfying dining experience! Apparently, in addition to the location on Washington Road, they have another, larger location on Boyscout road with Draft Beer and a Frozen Margarita Machine... We cannot wait to check it out. read more

I always love when I scroll through Yelp as I am traveling through a town when I do not know were is best to eat. I went here from the Yelp app and boom, it was a great spot for real. It is a super comfortable small place and a good vibe in there the whole time. My waitress was my host because I showed up very late in the evening as I arrived in Augusta, Georgia. If you like true Mexican food then this is for sure where to go to. Very yummy and the server was very nice as well. read more

The food was fantastic! Fresh and fast. Very cute unassuming location tucked away in a strip mall. Our server was a bit cranky, but maybe she had a long day. I had a margarita - for some reason called a Texas Margarita. Street tacos and Fresca guac- which was amazing. Would definitely go back again. read more

Dinner out with a friend and we wanted to try a new place. Lokos Tacos did not disappoint. The staff was very welcoming, we were greeted and seated upon entering. The smells coming from the kitchen, the murals and art on the walls, along with the music coming from the stereo let me know this was a good choice. I ordered the birria quesadilla with the HUGE mangonado with the tajin rim and straw. The waiter suggested getting the meal with rice and beans, but I didn't want to be stuffed. I later regretted my decision because it was soo good! I'm sure leftovers would've been just as good. I'll definitely come back and enjoy another meal and drink. read more

The food was good and the service was speedy but they were not the best I ever had. Street Tacos were LOADED. Great value for the price read more

So...it's a huge space however it was empty when we went. Yes it was early ...round 430ish. We had a drink and ordered multias and birria tacos. When you are seated.you get a mexican.noodle soup which was pretty tasty and your typical chips and salsa...salsa was ok,not a ton of flavor. The meat from the birria lacked flavor and the consomè didnt have a.robust taste like ive had.im other places or even in Mexico and the multias,which I got chorizo & steak and my friend got chicken tinga also lacked huge flavor...the space is nice the service was good but the food lacks flavor. The meat could have been warmed.on the grill to give some texture. It's ok good but there are.so many mexican restaurants in the area this one doesn't hit the top 5. read more

DH and I went to Loko Tacos on Thursday to beat the Cinco de Mayo crowds. It's a quaint little "hole-in-the-wall" place in a strip mall, but there is so much flavor! The walls are covered in Mexican art and idioms and everything is scrupulously clean. We went at the end of a workday and arrived at a nearly empty restaurant, but that quickly changed as people streamed in. Our server was quick with the menus and drink orders. Besides the usual chips and salsa, we were brought small bowls of noodle soup (unexpected and most welcome). DH asked for a recommendation and got the Birria Tacos. I ordered the pollo La Milanesa Torta which was new to me. The bread was fresh and soft inside while being crunchy outside and the onions and jalapeño were bright spots in the generously portioned sandwich. Nothing beats the fresh flavors and authenticity of this food. DH was sold and we now have a new neighborhood haunt for take-out and dine-in. You should drop in too. read more

As a visitor to the area, the place was simple but when you walk in, the experience amazing because the staff was really about the customers and making sure we were happy. Not to mention that the waitresses were GORGEOUS and the waiter was pretty GANGSTA. We started with the drinks and I had the margarita tower and he was worried that I asked for 1 cup. meanwhile, my wife had a monster strawberry frozen margarita which was perfect. They took care of the kids first and made sure they were always smiling. For the main course, we had street tacos and I had a burrito and they new exactly how to style it. I would definitely recommend a visit as to food was amazing and the staff made you feel like home. Did I mention that the waitresses were GORGEOUS!!?? read more

"Diamond in the rough?" More like burrito in the strip mall. I remember my first visit wondering if this place would live up to the hype (word of mouth was already circulating!). And it did. On a whelm I return this past week, unsure of what I was in the mood for (I know, not like me). But believing that this would be the place to find it. Thankfully I came mid afternoon, as I suspect there would have been no empty tables otherwise. I had forgotten how fresh the salsa is. For some that may be a minor thing, but I have had my fill of salsa that is borderline tomato salsa. I want to taste the peppers and cilantro. I want it to sing in my mouth. And I want housemade chips. But I digress. Here you have the best of both. You also receive a complimentary sample sized bowl of fideo soup. Don't be afraid to just pick it up to finish off the last few spoonfuls. It's too good to waste. I found myself with burrito on the mind and ordered one with steak and black beans. The presentation alone had my appetite revved up. The beauty of the shell was all I needed to know. I was in for a culinary delight. The rice and beans, cooked perfectly. If you've ever had them not cooked perfectly, you know why this is such an important aspect. Especially with beans. Undercook and they are too firm. Overcook and they are mush. The steak flavor and texture was on point and I will add that you need to like cilantro for this dish. It isn't overpowering, but it is fresh and at the forefront. You will not be able to ignore it. There is so much more for me to try, but one visit at a time. And in case you didn't know, they now have a second location on Boy Scout Road. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. I will be there soon! read more

I went here on a Saturday at 7, despite the restaurant not being busy, my party and I were virtually ignored. After ordering drinks, we received chips and salsa, but our queso we ordered never arrived. For a full 20 minutes, we watched the wait staff who were clustered together at a table, seemingly more interested in socializing than attending to customers. When we finally decided to leave due to the complete lack of service, I asked to speak with a manager. I was told there wasn't one available and that I couldn't even have their contact information. read more

My grandson wanted to get Mexican food so we went to Lokos Tacos which recently opened on Boy Scout Road not too far from where we live. The building is a big improvement over their tiny former place which was in a strip mall. We were seated quickly and our waiter came quickly to get our drinks started and brought us a complimentary bowl of soup. It was tasty but a tad too salty. He also brought chips and salsa. These were very yummy so I ordered the cheese dip too. The large tv nearest to us was broadcasting a Braves game so Mom was happy. The restaurant is big with lovely murals but it is noisy. Another nearby tv was showing college basketball. The menu here is very different than your typical tex mex style place. So much so I recommend you peruse it on line before hand. Mom and I ordered the Texas rice which was chicken, steak and shrimp with vegetables on a bed of rice with cheese sauceThis turned out to be huge enough to share and we ended up taking home half our dinner. Grandson got a seafood soup that was chocked full of mussels l, shrimp, fish and octopus in a tomato based broth. It came to the table extremely hot. He declared it tasty but probably nothing he would order again. I also ordered a Texas margarita (13.99)and mom had a Corona(4.50?). Our total bill was about 80 dollars with the tip this night of eating Mexican was almost a hundred dollars! The service was outstanding and the food good but that hefty price tag makes me question if I would go there again. read more

This definitely is an Augusta hidden gem! All of the food was delicious, and the margarita was the size of my head! Everyone loved their meals (my favorite was the birria tacos) and everything was delivered fairly quickly as well. It is a smaller place, so I would check ahead for large parties, but everyone is super friendly! read more

This place is what I'm Taco'n about! I saw there was a new Mexican restaurant in town so I had to take the wife here for a lunch date to check it out. Not only do they start you off with some delicious chips and salsa, but also some sort of chicken noodle-like soup minus the chicken but nevertheless was a nice treat. The wife got the strawberry daiquiri to drink and boy was that thing massive, she was definitely a fan and made for fun shopping partner at Costco afterwards One of the must-have at any Mexican restaurant we try for the first time is their queso dip and if it has chorizo that's even better. This one was fantastic and paired well with their light and craipt chips. I wanted the whole menu but had been craving street tacos so that's what we went with. The wife got her favorite carne asada which were good for her (she has high carne asada standards) and I got the variety pack of pork, spicy chicken, and pulled beef...all of which were fantastic. The only issued I had was that I didn't have enough stomach space to fit it all in comfortably. Washington road has a lot of food options, but this one should be at the top of your list! It's in a shopping mall so it's hidden from the road, but never hidden from my memory...check it out! read more

Came for lunch with friends, together we made a party of 5. We were treated with chips and salsa for the table and a small bowl of noodle soup for each of us, and all were great starters that whetted our appetites before ordering. I got the Birria "Estilo Jalisco" and enjoyed it thoroughly. The different parts of the dish came out in sequences/stages instead of it being delivered all at once. I got a plate filled with stewed beef, rice and beans along with two small condiment-sized containers of cilantro and diced onions. Then I got my side of consome. Then, much later, I got a foil-wrapped, steaming hot serving of 3 corn tortillas. The stewed beef was heavy, but super flavorful and tender, it basically fell apart on my fork (that's how tender it was). I was confused as to why the consome was delivered to the table well after the initial plate of beef came, but it's ok. The consome was very heavy and was suitable for just a small dip with a piece of tortilla. I left most of it uneaten. The refried beans and rice were good side additions to the dish. The star of the show was definitely the beef, though. I don't know if there's a way to order just the stewed beef, but if there is, I would definitely prefer just that. The tortillas weren't really my favorite, and I think it was because they were just a little too moist. Overall though, the portions are massive. Great value for your money, and very good quality food. Our waiter was very friendly as well and seemed excited to be there. Love the environment and the food, will DEFINITELY pay this place a visit again. read more

Tried this place after it was recommended by a friend. The location looked a lot nicer on the inside than some of the more hole-in-the-wall taco spots I normally frequent. Chips and salsa were also complementary, which was something else I did not expect. I ordered lengua tacos and tinga chicken tacos. Lengua tacos 3.5/5: The tacos had tortillas that seemed to have been dipped in grease or cooked on an oiled pan for a bit. I do appreciate when street tacos have tortillas dipped in the oil from the meats but these were a bit on the soggier/oilier side. The lengua chunks had a nice char to them and scratch the itch if you're craving lengua tacos. They were slightly chewier than some other places I've had but not bad overall. Tinga Tacos 3.5/5: These tacos had some shredded chipotle chicken meat inside them. The meat was stringy similar to pulled pork and not very tender, but there was a decent amount of the chipotle marinade making it more moist than normal shredded chicken. The tacos were alright and at $3 per taco it is an acceptable price. The service stood out to me, as the waiter was very attentive, and when my friend was given one incorrect taco, they threw in the extra correct taco at no added cost/fuss. Lastly, this place also gets curved up because free chips and salsa which is always a plus in my book. Overall a much more presentable, cleaner taco spot than others I've been to while having options for some tex-mex items and margheritas. read more

This was a authentic Mexican. With a fun vibe and a enticing cocktail menu. They had a margarita tower served in a large tower that looks like a lot of fun although we didn't order it, but the people having it said it was good. They have many taco choices , they even offer Mole with several other authentic mexican dishes on the menu. We always judge the salsa as a baseline for whether it will be good or not. Their salsa is good! The place is small located in a strip mall, with plenty of parking. But limited tables and if your coming with a large group perhaps call ahead. Prices are reasonable with most tacos $3. Definite must on the list if you are a Mexican food or taco lover! read more

Small-but-stunning hole in the wall with authentic Mexican food. We were greeted and seated instantly, and the staff helped us make sure that my partner's allergies wouldn't be a problem. The interior is casual but beautiful, and the art on the right side wall is awesome. The small bowl of complimentary noodle soup is something I never knew I needed from a Mexican restaurant, but now I want it everywhere. The chips and salsa also had great flavor. There were about 10 different things I wanted to try, but I ended up settling on chicken fajitas. The giant mountain of chicken, peppers, onions and mushrooms came out sizzling, and the tortillas and sides were fresh. We also had a side of street corn -- top notch. Each kernel of corn was juicy and seasoned. This will be one of our regular stops now when we visit Augusta. read more

Great customer service. Excellent food. I hope that they eventually open other locations in the CSRA. They have a very large menu that offers a large variety Mexican dishes, unlike most of the restaurants in town. I was so excited to find a restaurant offering quesabirria. The restaurant can get a little loud with the music and everyone talking, since it's a smaller establishment, but the food is so delicious and everyone, including other patrons, are so nice that you forget all about it. By far, a 10/10 restaurant for the CSRA. read more

I git the street tacos... but I got them with flour tortillas...the flour tortillas themselves were not that good and tasted almost stale. The service was good. They also gave me an extra cup of soup, which was very much appreciated. And the soup itself is very tasty. The salsa was very tasty. Overall, I had a good experience and would go back but would probably try to order something new. read more

Not much to choose from. Food was okay but I thought it was kind of bland. Service was the best thing.

BLUF: it is not a bad spot. Has good food, plenty of parking and good service. You can't beat that for restaurants these days. I'm pretty particular about my shrimp ceviche but this wasn't bad. It was just missing the heat of jalapeño, the tang of the line and salt. Great portion size. Our table also had chicken fajitas, chicken burrito and Texas plate. There wasn't an unsatisfied belly when we left. I like the soup and salsa that comes while you wait for your meal. It's not very big so I wouldn't recommend it for large groups over 8 without giving prior notice. read more

Went here with a group of friends for lunch. Had high expectations based on photos and reviews. I had beef and pork taocs (4). Others tried the the burrito, cactus with beef, and spicy shrimp. The good. Service was prompt and friendly. They offer free chips and soup so that's nice. The food was decent and all dishes came out within a few minutes. The bad. I was not impressed with the tacos. Having eaten a lot of Texmex and Mexican food in over a dozen states, I'd say these rank somewhere in the middle. But for $3/ea, I wouldn't order again. Most felt the same way. Decent food but nothing to rave about. Overall, I'm glad I tried it but probably won't rush back. Based on a combined review from the 6 of us. 3.5 stars! read more

Very friendly staff and nice environment however the food lacked flavor, very bland particularly for Mexican food.

Authentic and fresh Mexican food, for a change. Augusta might have more Mexican restaurants per capita than any place in America and they all taste the same with similar expansive menus and blandness (don't forget the doused scent of Fabuloso). However, this particular place was quite good with a limited menu. True Carnitas and not the fatty crock pot kind. Made to order so your food doesn't come out before your drinks. Didn't care too much for the chips but their salsa was good. read more

When my friend wanted to go out for margs I suggested we try Loko Tacos. Saw someone post about this place on IG a few months back and have been wanting to check it out. The place is small but they have several booths and tables. You're started off with chips and salsa and a small cup of some sort of noodle soup. Chips were fresh and salsa had a little kick to it. They have some of your usuals as well as some items I've never seen at other restaurants. I tried the grill cactus and I'm a fan. Street tacos and the mulitas was also awesome but the meat was a little dry. Anytime I see lengua as a protein option I have to think the place is pretty legit. Finally, the margarita glasses are huge (probably the size of my head!) Also saw a few tables with margarita tower. Will definitely have to bring some more friends back to get it! read more

This is one of my favorite new restaurants in Augusta. Serving authentic Mexican cuisine in a clean, friendly, and lively environment. To start, you get chips with salsa and a Mexican noodle soup- it was to die for! The margaritas are very fresh, and not too sweet. I had the birrias tacos, and they were amazing! Great flavor and portions. If you're looking for delicious and filling Mexican food that isn't run of the mill, definitely check out Lokos Tacos! read more

Decided to come here after a friend recommended their food to me. The staff here are super friendly and they have a fairly extensive menu. I got one of their tacos (steak/chorizo I think), the torta cubana, and the xango. The tortillas were super fresh and the seasoning on the meat was really delicious. I got the xango for dessert and it was so crispy and the cheesecake was delicious inside of it. Definitely will be coming back to try other things on the menu! read more

Lokos Tacos in Augusta was an amazing find on my way to Charleston, SC. The hospitality was absolutely amazing! I was greeted with complimentary soup and chips & salsa.

Get ready to pay $16.50 as of 7/10/2025 for a margarita! Food was good (soap de fideo is a can't miss!!) but stay away from the mixed drinks. They are overpriced and the spicy pineapple wasn't spicy at all. The mango habanero was spicy but only because the jalapeños had their seeds & even then I wasn't setting anything on fire. read more
