Walked in & placed my taco order at the bar. I ordered 3 birria beef tacos & 3 asada calor (steak) tacos for me & my brother-in-law. The restaurant did not appear to be real busy but I waited 40 minutes for my tacos. I tried the tacos as soon as I got home. The steak tacos were extremely spicy & I normally like spicy food. My brother-in-law agreed they were ridiculously spicy. The birria beef tacos were good. read more

Mi Taco Loco - Birria beef tacos (2) with pico & sour cream - Desserts Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

Decent tacos, decent service. These tables are tiny so long legged people beware the carne asada was the best, chicken was a tad dry and the carnitas were a bit tasteless to be honest. We licked that they had different styles. I have a strange food allergy that I'm not sure of what it is but this place is black listed for me. read more

Called in my order the guy said it'll be ready in 10 minutes. I said oh I thought it would take longer than that can you have it ready at 12? He said yes. I arrive at 12:10pm. I pickup my order. I ordered the birria tacos no cilantro and chips and salsa since I read online it doesn't come with it chips and salsa like most restaurants do. I paid an additional $5 for the smallest chips and salsa you can think of. The chips are gross. They're borderline stale. The tacos at first sight were bigger than usual so I got excited thinking they would good. Then I noticed they're covered in cilantro also the sauce for the tacos wasn't much bigger than the salsa container. First bite of the tacos and they're soggy I can't believe I just paid $17 for this crap. I could only force myself to eat 2 of the tacos. I called in they offered to replace the order. I don't think I want to go back. read more

I stopped in for My Lunch break and tried this place for the first time today. Man, it was so delicious. I had the steak burrito. I wish I would have taken a picture. (I will next time!) Clean, quiet, and amazing food. The waiter was very friendly and on point. Can't say enough about Mi Taco Loco. I will definitely be back with the family and friends! read more

So, I've seen a few people reviewing this restaurant, and not far from places I visit, so I thought I'd stop. The navigation was telling me both that the "destination is on your right" and "make a U-turn in 50 feet", which complicated getting there. After I parked, it still wanted me to return to the road. Apparently, it's a mobile restaurant? Anyway, I found the place to be an old Burger King, and I wasn't sure it was open, even with the bright "Open" sign. The waitress was filling cups with salsa at the front counter. I wasn't exactly sure how things worked, and she said--over the loud noise from the back--to sit down and she would give me a menu. The menu didn't have a lot of options, but they had some steaks and fish, along with the typical tacos and enchiladas. I almost got the Caldo de Camarón (shrimp stew) but knowing how easy it is for shrimp to go bad, I decided to play it safe with Carne Asada Tacos with lettuce and tomatoes, ditching the sour cream. The less expensive option had onions and cilantro, but apparently, they didn't put them together as an option. I could have asked but I thought differently. I topped it off with a Limón Jarritos. She said that the chips weren't ready, even before she took my order. I swear, I don't care for restaurant chips. I make my own at home, and usually the restaurant just heats them up or they fry them multiple times until they have a smoky taste. I said "don't bother" but she brought them to the table a little later. They were so-so but warm. The tacos were very good. The sauces come in ketchup (spicier) and mustard (less spicy) bottles. The tortillas were fried well, though the steak was a little chewy, but still better than you'd get at fake Mexican places like Chipotle. I'm wondering how everything compares to Taquería Mercado up the road closer to Fairfield, as I've had food from a relative's restaurant in the Dayton, OH area. In any case, you can get the real deal along SR 4. Oh, and if you sit at a booth on the east wall, you might see some ants. I mentioned it but she didn't seem too concerned. read more

Great food and very friendly staff. Went there for the first time today and got the Birria tacos and man let me tell you the flavor is outstanding. Spicy but not hot. I don't like spicy food at all and loved these. The staff was very nice and explained what everything was and suggested a winner. read more

Food was fine - not sure I've ever had liquid salsa before? - not much for the $. Service was slow (we were the only patrons). Got the job done but not the best option. read more

This place has really turned itself around. I ate here a few years ago and wasn't rushing to get back; but tonight I tried it again since the reviews appeared to be improving. I'm glad I did! I tried tacos of carnitas, chorizo, and beef shoulder. First of all, tacos are way cheaper here than in other parts of the city. They're SUPER full and I loved how diced the onions and cilantro were. The salsas were also great too! The chips tasted like the brand "Milagro", so nothing special and there wasn't any salsa served on the side but let's be honest, that's an American thing. Overall, it's a solid option for tacos and several different types of traditional soups. read more

I literally drove by this place for a couple years never once considering eating there. It's in an old Burger King and the parking lot is usually quite empty. I'll be honest I couldn't imagine how a place with apparently so few customers could stay open this long and thought this had to be a "front" for some sort of illegal operation! After one of my brave friends tried it and raved about it on Facebook I decided to give it a shot and boy am I glad I did! This place is pretty darn good. $2 tacos and $2.25 beer? can't beat that for lunch! read more

Super happy to have stumbled across this place. Try to look past the state of the building, the fact that extra furniture is stacked up in the solarium of this old Burger King. Tacos were great and probably the cheapest I've ever seen them in town. Hipsters and foodies have almost completely ruined the idea that tacos are cheap street food that you should be able to buy with the change you find between cushions. Very full tacos here were $1.95 extra 15 cents if you want "Loco" = sour cream, lettuce and tomato. I really enjoyed seeing a regular offer up a taste of the lengua tacos to a new customer who was curious but not convinced. the decor looks like it gets pretty hopping in the evenings or maybe the disco/karaoke setup is more for private parties. read more

As someone who grew up in California and has Mexican food flowing through his veins, I can say without a doubt this is the best and most authentic Mexican food in Cincinnati. The prices are cheap, the wait is always short, the staff is nice and it's perfectly made everytime. I usually get the tacos, but I think I've had everything on the menu at this point. There really isn't anything that disappoints. Even the chips before the meal feel and taste like someone knows that bagged chips are garbage and salt isn't a necessity. I would recommend the chicken or beef tacos and definitely the enchiladas or tamales. You really cannot go wrong. read more

My favorite taco joint just closed and so I decided to try Taco Loco after reading the reviews on yelp. This place was very disappointing in both food and service. I ordered guacamole and two tacos. The guacamole just didn't look right - it was more yellow than green and the avocado part was sparse compared to the other ingredients. Upon tasting it - it was evident that the avocado had turned and there was too much lemon juice to cover it up. The tacos were good but nothing to write home about. My server did not stop back to check on my food or refill my empty drink. I walked up to the counter to pay. I mentioned the guacamole situation and she just told me that it was as usual. I paid with my card by habit. After she swiped it she pointed to a sign behind her about a minimum charge and charged me that full amount. Had I been told that before she swiped it, I would have paid cash and paid less. read more

Great Burritos! Big, fresh and tasty. Not like one if the major chain garbage "burritos" and not like a Mexican restaurant plated style burrito. Hand held meal made of fresh ingredients. Tacos are also good. Fresh and basic but perfect. read more

The restaurant is really casual. Not the cleanest place but it's not bad. At first we only got a bunch of tacos and then wanted to try more food so ordered another burrito but we definitely should have just stuck with their tacos. Their tacos are the best we've found so far, in Cincinnati. Make sure to get them with just onions and cilantro if you want them to taste more like authentic mexican-street tacos. With just a little bit of their bottled salsa, they were delish!! Heads up though: the steak and chicken tacos were great but the carnitas (pork) was surprisingly pretty dry. As for the burrito... We got a carne asada burrito and it was not good. Way too much rice and not enough steak and sauce. They also have horchata and it was REALLY good. Definitely a must try! read more

Decent food but horrible service. I'm an understanding person and get it if you are under staffed but that was not the case as I saw workers just hanging out on their phones and there were only 2 occupied tables! Slow service (took over 20 min!), forgot almost every single thing we asked for, ordered rice and after all the food had come out I asked where the rice was she says we don't have any!!?? Overall, not a good experience. Luckily the food was decent. read more

AMAZING staff. these people are super passionate and accommodated a huge group of us last minute (hungry track runners)

Really really great Mexican. I had the Birria Tacos which are kind of like three mini quesadillas with a spicy salsa dipping sauce. The best. My friend Jon had tacos and he said they were super good. Better than the other place we went to. My friend Mike got the fajitas and he said they were good too. They smelled good. Sizzled a lot. Real sizzle too. My friend David makes everything about himself and he had a burrito bowl. We felt like we were in a foreign country. It was awesome. read more

I was nearby so I decided to try this place on a whim. Delicious, authentic Mexican food. It reminds me of a place I might find in Southeast San Diego, and the food reminds me of street tacos in Tijuana. The horchata was delicious, as were the carne asada and carnitas tacos. The salsas were good, but the red one is quite spicy, so be warned. I'd come back when I'm in the area. read more

I ordered steak torta, tacos and horchata. It's not the best quality meat -you cannot expect that from a $9.99 meal- but it was delicious and fulfilling. I couldn't taste tacos but I can tell that there was a good amount of meat in them. Horchata was refreshing. The young girl who was taking the orders was so polite and patient. read more

After an evening of dancing, we were in the mood for Mexican. We straggled in at 9:30 and the party was just getting started. We were handed menus for our carry out order and were pleasantly surprised by the prices and unique offerings. We ordered tacos - (3) chicken, steak, and beef shoulder. They were all delightful. We also ordered a chicken quesadilla. It was also delicious. Our bill came to $16.00 before gratuity. We're so glad we stopped by. We will definitely be back... With friends. read more

Amazing carne asada tacos - and on Tuesday they are $1! These are sime of the best tacos I have had in Cincinnati area. They remind me of the tacos from the taco trucks out in California. The staff is really friendly. read more

Don't let the exterior of the place discourage you. This place has the best tacos in the area. They put the effort into the food and not the décor so don't be alarmed if you come across an old fast food place with a taco sign. With the variety of meats available, tongue and tripe, for example, is a sure thing that it is an authentic place. The food is amazing and messy. There's salsa and chips upon arrival and a great variety of selection. Order the tongue because where else will you find that in Cincinnati? The staff is friendly and there's Mexican candy at the counter at check out. read more

I was hesitant to eat here for a long time, growing up in Southern California and being Mexican I am very picky when it comes to my Mexican food. For me if its not home made it's not good. I've tried a few places out here and none have pleased my taste buds. However, when I finally decided to eat here I was surprised and a little mad at myself I hadn't stopped by before. The tacos are amazing and the sopes are as close to home made as you will get in a restaurant out here. This place is my new favorite spot. The prices and portions are good and the horchata DELICIOUS. Seriously give this place a try, you will not be disappointed. I recommend it to anyone that is looking for that authentic home style Mexican food. The stuff we eat, not the chain restaurant crap, the real deal. Love this place!!!! read more

Closed at lunch time last two days. Looks like out of business. Junk cars in parking lot and garbage.

I was wary at first. Mom & Pop Mexican food is always a gamble. This was some of the best Mexican food I have ever had. I was extremely happy, and wanted to order seconds in minutes. I am pretty confident in saying that this is my new go to place for Mexican. Great job guys Delicioso! read more

It's about as authentic as you'll find in Cincy. Go for the tacos al pastor, the sopes, and beware of the red salsa as it is muy picante. Order an horchata or agua de Jamaica if you've never had either before. read more

I came to this place because it was recommended by a friend that saw it had beef tongue. I like beef tongue but it has to be properly prepared and fresh. Unfortunately the beef tongue I received tasted like it was either frozen then warmed on the grill or it was a day old. The meat was small cubes not pulled or thin sliced. The corn tortillas were good as were the beans and rice, so i didn't starve. Will not return. read more

Don't be fooled by the rough exterior, it's what's inside that counts, and what's inside is worth raving about! Owner and chef, Octavio Garcia's amazing remake of this location is really impressive! I tried his Sopa de 7 Mares and it floored me! Well worth every penny, it was brimming with flavor, complexity, and fresh seafood! The serving was huge! The Mole de Pollo was reported by my friend Robert as astounding, and the Quesadillas are just enormous! Located in a former Burger King on Northland and Southland in Springdale, don't even think about avoiding this place, get over there and enjoy yourself! Bravo, Octavio! read more
