Stopped on the way home from a family visit. It's a 3 hour trip, and we had an hour left. We were hungry, and knew we didn't want to try to make dinner when we got home at 9pm and still had to unload the car. I knew Rockingham had a good amount of places, so I looked up on yelp, and saw that this place had some good reviews. We figured it was worth a try. There are 4 of us in the car, not overly hungry, but needed something. We got the 10 pack of tacos, half hard shell, half soft shell for $9.75. Awesome deal!! We ordered chips, and Loco sauce, since we saw a tip from someone else that it was good. The 4 of us are full just from the 10 tacos, and a couple of chips each to try the sauce. The tacos are amazing. The place closes in an hour, and the food was still fresh and good. We love the sauce, and will definitely be back for more tacos and loco sauce!!!! Thank you, Yelp, for helping us pick a great place for a quick, and excellent bite to eat on our trip home. read more

They'll get your take out order right about 1/2 the time. Out of the last 4 times we've ordered from them, items have been left off, or missing completely. Their food is great, but it you order cheese dip, chips should come with the order. If you order chicken and shrimp fajitas, it should come with chicken and shrimp. Not steak and chicken. How you get that mixed up, I'll never understand. read more

My wife and I were traveling along with our dog through Rockingham on the way to a beach vacation when we found Taco Loko. We were able to order six traditional (corn tortilla, cilantro, onions) tacos for takeout, which were tasty and quickly prepared by the friendly staff. Though they don't have outdoor seating, we enjoyed our tacos while sitting on a bench they had outside to allow our dog to stretch her legs. Friendly, casual atmosphere for a quick and tasty dinner on the road. read more

The menu is extensive. The choices delightful. We had Shrimp with Fra diablo sauce and Pollo cordon Blu. Both dishes were ample and muy delicioso. The service was friendly prompt and attentive. Even the chips and salsa starter was above average. This restaurant greatly exceeded my expectations. In the immortal words of Arnold, "l'll be back" read more

2 stars because the food is good.. Found hair in my food. Plus cheese was only poured on a small portion of my nachos.Order taker talks to fast on that cheap drive thru speaker then gets moody when you ask anything about the food. Then gets sarcastic when you don't order the way he prefers. The lady's are way better at taking orders than him read more

Best thing to fill the old Central Park burger place. True authentic tacos and simple Mexican food. I've taken the tacos to work with me to share and everyone in the office fell in love. My boss that is half Mexican and from Cali said they taste just like good old street tacos from the west coast. The pork tacos are to die for and just with a little onions, cilantro, and cheese. Bag of fresh chips and delicious salsa. Incredibly good and incredibly priced. If you ever get a craving for Taco Bell, go across the street to Taco Loko instead. I do want to point out that they do have seating if you want to eat there, so it isn't just Drive-thru or walk-up. read more

This place is amazing!! For whatever reason I am just trying it out even though I have known it's been here. Their food is different from your usual Mexican restaurant food here, it taste so fresh! read more

We've dined here twice, we found there authentic Mexican cuisine absolutely delicious! Let me say, I speak from experience, I'm from Galveston County Texas, and I grew up eating Authentic Mexican food. I will admit the tortilla chips were a little over cooked on our second trip which was disappointing, but Due to the quality of the service and food they serve, I would have to chalk it up to a new cook or something, Thus the reason I chose to give them only 4 stars. Dang sure worth going back again, we loved it! read more

The food here is AMAZING! Every time I've eaten here the food was always hot, fresh and tasty! The chips and salsa is ok but I'd like to see them change the salsa. It has a burnt taste. Maybe roasted tomatoes in it..? It isn't bad just not what I like. Service is always top notch too. Staff is friendly and they take damn good care of you here. read more

Food is AUTHENTIC as well as GREAT. I Love the Taco Salad (#11) and the Nacho Ole (#2). Customer service is welcoming. Love to support smaller businesses...we get our money's worth. Wish there was take home menus or be able to review online. A MUST try. read more

Absolutely worth the money. In $17 we had a shrimp and a chicken fajita which came with a separate plate full of fresh salad and guacamole. The quantity was delightfully surprising. And delicious. read more

Best Mexican food in town! I eat here at least once a week! Amazing tacos, burritos and quesadillas! 10 out of 10 would recommend to anyone! I highly recommend the Carne asada tacos and the quesadilla with al pastor! read more

Nice little hidden gem of Rockingham nc. If your looking for more authentic Mexican food this is the place. It's very quaint and keeps with the tradition of the Mexican culture. The food is completely made from scratch. No microwave in the back. The taste is is pure tradition of all the spices and savory flavors of Mexico. read more

Best Mexican food that I have ever eaten!!! We love Mexican food and this has been the absolute best!

Stopped here on the way to the beach. Fast and Fresh! We had the Corn Tortilla Soft Tacos with Carne Asada, beef tip, and "Pastor". 6 tacos came with radish, onion, cilantro and lime, was very good. 2 large bags of chips too. Salsa was tasty and the Guac was pretty good too. We would definitely stop again. read more

This was the halfway point to meet out of town family, driving up it looked small and we were skeptical but what a surprise! The food was simply amazing!! We are fond of Mexican food and this was probably the best we have ever had. The waiter was super friendly and the manager checked up on us several times. Food came out fast and hot! Wonderful job guys! read more

Great atmosphere here! Really good food for the low wish they had different people to work there and not be so rude but the owner and his family are great people ! They have the best horchata ! read more

Food was ok. Not any where as near as good as lacabana. Waitress was nice. Older guy was a jerk. One of my friends didn't eat and they made him pay 5 dollars just for eating chips lol. read more

We stopped here for a quick lunch today. Thought it was just a drive-thru, but realized after driving abound the building from the drive-thru that there was a dining room. We'll check that out next time! Hubby had the #1 (beef soft taco and chicken burrito) and I had #2 (chicken nacho ole). It all was very good! Chicken was perfectly seasoned and all ingredients were fresh. Nachos came with lettuce, tomato, shredded cheese, guacamole, sour cream. I didn't get jalapeños. Under all that, on top of the chips, was the orange kind of canned nacho cheese. Some people might not like that, but I love concession stand nachos so I thought it was perfect! All ingredients were proportioned right and had just the right amount for the chips. We got a cup of homemade hot sauce that was very tasty and very hot. Our two meals with drinks came to $15. Give this place a try! You'll enjoy it. Can't wait to try more menu items. read more

Best mexican restaurant to get authentic tacos in Richmond County. 10/10!! i love the carne asada tacos and the carne asada quesdilla.

What can I say, PLEASE don't let the looks and size of this place deprive your tongue of the yummiest Mexican food around. As authentic as it gets (Especially tacos), and the best prices for large portions. Never had to wait an unreasonable time to get my meal, whereas other places easily take 30 to an hour. My wife and I love Mexican food, we've been to every one in Rockingham and nearly all the ones from other towns we've lived while I was in the Marines, and I can honestly say none compare to Salvador's Taco Loko. While keeping in mind this is no lavish banquet hall: the other factors of taste, portion, price, and friendliness far exceed this book's cover. Not to mention how kind Salvador and his family are, his restaurant is a fractional example of the care and concern they express to everyone they meet. Not perfectly fluent in English, however nothing is dismissed and every person welcome, no matter your equality issues. The servers all speak English, are courteous and quick. Salvador can also be found at Rham flea market most Saturday mornings with his taco truck for a nice taco or quesadilla brunch. read more

Great street tacos. So happy to find a locally owned authentic Mexican restaurant and not a chain restaurant in Rockingham. I got the 3 tacos chicken, beef & pork on corn tortillas. Came with radishes, cilantro, onion & roasted jalapeño. Wonderful! Also chips & salsa & tried both the green salsa & hot sauce. Owners were so nice. Have family in town so I'll be coming here each time we visit. read more
