The place makes you feel you are in Mexico. The food was really yum. We enjoyed the food starting from the fries to the mains.The car park is right at the front of the restaurant so it saves a walk. The Fajitas are recommended. The staff is really good and attentive. Good place to hang out in a group too.
Regularly come here for lunch and coffee. The food here is healthy, rich, tasty and very authentic, its not Tex-Mex. the chefs and baristas here are really refined in their craft. The food is also served in generous quantities and with sides.Their regular sized coffee is rather small and I dislike how when I order a coffee they assume you want a regular without asking you... Its very easy to forget to tell them the size you want so I wished they had a habit of asking you want size you wanted for yourself.Still 5 stars on balance.
Casual atmosphere, great food! Although I ended up eating my friends meal as we got tripped up by the names upon getting them, but would go back again in a heartbeat. Find it cool how they’ve made use of what looked to once be a petrol station shop. Great flavours
Food was nice but $18 at a minimum for three bite sized tacos is ridiculous. Would definitely get way more bang for your buck elsewhere.
Managed to get a same day booking as had a sudden hankering for some decent food!! Drinks selection is awesome and the food is wonderfully authentic plus filling. I look forward to going back again and trying more of the food. The atmosphere was also one of the best vibes both me and my partner have had since dining out, also great for a beer after work.Will be back!!
Expensive isnt even appropriate. Its a complete theft ripoff. 3 tiny tacos, which is literally just 50grams of shredded meat inside some thin wrap , for 6 dollars each. its about 2 bites per taco. so $3 per bite. Youd think youd be buying the most amazing food in the world for that price. But i could cook it in 5 minutes at home for 50c. This is as another reviewer said disgusting. Not the food, but the price. the taste is average. the price is disgusting. what are the 3 cheapest foods available? beans, rice and wrap. Add them together, and charge 6000% and then say beuno tastio, hombre! in a loud fake mexican voice and think its authentic. You will notice the bag feels relatively decent weight for $50. Then when you open the bag, you will find 50% of the weight (no lie) is from 4 different sauces (worth maybe 10% of the weight you expected to pay for in food) Theyre simply fraudsters.
Fish tacos and margaritas - 13/10/19, fantastic. Staff made it magic.Great restaurant for lazy lunch with friends, the deco is amazing inside. Menu is extensive and caters to all taste buds. The wait staff were super friendly and helpful, describing the dishes with a brief background. My favourite was the prawn tacos, packed with flavors. Chicken and lamb tacos were super tasty. The nachos were a rear find, and coffee was fantastic. Fun day out by all, great place.
Delish food! Great service
I must say for the mexican food this place is amazing I have went through many place around here but this place is on next level and I think because of there menu range, location and of course the coustomer service. If you like mexican food I must say you wont regret after going to this place.Highly recommended 👌
Best Mexican Ive had in Auckland. Went for a work lunch with 8 people. Everyone loved their meals and then atmosphere. The decorating is great and the service was good. Pricing is reasonable too! Would recommend 120%. So good!
We just saw In the Heights at the cinema and thought we’d get food fitting the vibe of latin america. This place was excellent for atmosphere, service and food. I haven’t had good vegetarian tacos (De Nopales) like these ever before..the feta on top is just👌🏻Their mageritas are topped with a spicy rim..delish. Great variety on the menu and not too pricey. Muy buena!!
Yuuummmm so good!!! the food is amazing, great vibe and excellent service. highly recommend this place to go with friends and family, kids friendly and it has its own parking :)
A great addition to Mt Albert, great food, service and vibe. You cannot go wrong here. Will be back for the amazing cocktails.
Awesome menu with options for every meal!The place is super likeable, very cool & impressively designed.Everything we ordered was INCREDIBLE, just absolutely DELICIOUS. We went back in 24 hours again. This is going to be a regular for us, I reckon.Especially considering theyre on Zomato Gold now, it literally couldnt get better :)
Have been here a few times for breakfast. Love the food and atmosphere. Very attentive staff. An enjoyable experience.
Nice food. Great service. Great for a relaxing Sunday casual dinner
Its a great family friendly restaurant with generous portion size. The deco is full of character and it is very clean. The outdoor playground facility is great for the kids, especially on a sunny day. I recommend the stuffed chile. The food is not spicy, but they have many different hot sauces, so you can make it as hot as you want.
This is not my first visit there and always been satisfied.The food is great, the vibe is really cool, the staff is super nice & friendly and they make sure you are having a very good moment ! Hats off guys from the cooks to the staff team you are all amazing !
Really enjoyed the enchilada with chicken. The outdoor seating area has blankets and gas heaters so even in winter it was quite pleasant, that might be different in moderate wind.
Beautiful food!!! The owner is one of the waiters as well so he makes very nice suggestions... The rest of the stuff, awesome! Good manners and funny! Highly recommended place!
Awesome Mexican food. Pretty authentic for little old NZ.The staff are super helpful and very service oriented.Very cool spot decorated with large murals by a local artist in what looks like used to be a gas station once upon a time.Their chorizo con papas are authentic and tasty. And their prawn quesadilla is 👌👌 Would definitely recommend.
Spent a really nice time here. Good live music, friendly environment. Highly recommend the drinks.
Great food, service, and staff. Managed to squeeze us in on a busy Mothers Day, and very friendly and helpful about it. Love the tacos!
We went there on a Tuesday evening and was pleasantly surprised by the $20 Tuesday deal for selected tacos and a beer. Ended up ordering chicken, lamb and pulled pork tacos plus prawn cerviche which were all delicious. Our favourite was the pulled pork!
Doris plum cider, fantastic. The food and service is always great. Portions are a bit small for the price, but the flavours absolutely pop.
Went in with high hopes upon a friends recommendations. First and last experience. Dropped in here for takeaway lunch, my first 4 options from the menu was not available, so I settled on the chicken tacosThe three tacos were uninspiring, dry tasteless pulled chicken. The Vegetables in the taco were fresh but somehow managed to be bland and tasteless. Suacing was generous however did not add value to the dish. , Disappointing expensive lunch $18 that left me a little hungry and wanting for more in terms of portion size. Lovely environment and friendly staff.
Great food and atmosphere. The staff is very friendly with 10/10 customer service.
Great vibe, good food ...highly recommend
Waited 80 mins for food to eat in, opted for takeaway after waiting so long. If they were busy they should have let us know when we ordered, not after we spent 60 minutes waiting and I had to ask.
Great place, amazing food, beautiful and unique drinks, loved the sangria, good service, BUT terrible management under level 2.People were standing all over the place, different servers taking orders and delivering food to the same table, clearly less than 1 meter of distance between full tables, people getting into the restaurant without scanning the QR code and there wasnt any registration book to trace visitors, it was completely full and it looked like more than 100 people in the restaurant, people ordering from the counter, tables being set up without costumers, and I saw a table were there were more than 10 people.It is horrible how they do not have any control over the place just few days after coming back from a lockdown, it looks like the restrictions of level 2 are completely jokes for them, its unacceptable how business are not cooperating and following orders given by the government, I would love to know what the council of Auckland and restaurant association thinks about this, this situation is not a joke and many countries are being terrible affected, and it should be avoided to happen in New Zealand but with this type of attitude from businesses, it looks like a they do not care about social health.I love this place, its incredibly good and yummy, but they should and must do something about this.
Visually aesthetic vibrant atmosphere, friendly staff, delicious food with an authentic eye. Definitely a treat to done here. When they get el trompo for el pastor Ill eat tacos here every Sunday 🤤
Mmmm. Yum! Had beef, chicken and cactus tacos - all good. Cool outdoor area with a little playground
A small, perfectly formed Mexican-themed café/restaurant. Go here for light Mexican bites and lunches. Good coffee and a few decent beers with seating indoors, outdoors under shade or cover. A few car parks out the front. Good for evenings too.
Went last night, we manage to sit at the front, was super bussy. Food was great, burrito, poppers and wings were delicious, drinks too. Great place , friendly staff. Totally recomended
The food was great and it was quite fast. Loved their quesadillas.
Great food and service. The food took me on the memory lane down to Latin America. Good tasting cocktail, I totally recommend it.
Love this place. Always awesome cool service, love the venue, yum kai, chicken nachos my fav. Ring it in & go pick up when you dont feel like cooking..One night we even aced the live Mariachi band, amazing .. cheers Taco Loco !!!!
Excellent Mexican restaurant. Great decorations, staff are super friendly, the menu has a lot of alternatives, including vegetarian options.Definitely worth to go and share some food with friends.
Gracias AMIGOS, great food! Good mexican flavors and Friendly service.Congrats
Best Mexican place out, the jalapeño poppers are a must and their cocktail range is unbeatable, I love u taco loco
Went to this festive Mexican restaurant twice in the last few weeks!! Delicious and authentic food both times. They cater well to vegan with the ability to substitute vegan cheese in almost all the dishes.The second time I was lucky enough to be there on Mariachi night, which was very entertaining and heartwarming!!
Great service, tasty generous mexican portions. Basic rustic Cantina style setting, the outdoor area is close to cars parked in the driveway which detracts a little. Good George beer on tap. 👍 Its not cheap Mexican food (particularly entrees) but overall a good experience, will come back.
Love the food from Taco Loco! Highly recommended!
Soooo yummy, food is amazing, staff are all really nice and the atmosphere is super comfortable too! High quality meals, totally worth every penny, everything the family tried was super flavourful and filling! We all Left super satisfied
Always great food and atmosphere. Super friendly and helpful staff. Thanks again team, keep up the good work.
Authentic mexican food. delicious guac and salsa. fresh ingredients. i lived in New Mexico in US for 11 years and crave mexican food.
Been looking for a long time for a great barbeque cantina.This one has the look, the atmosphere and most especially the people and the food.Amazing Sunday BBQ special and the Flank Steak is the best.Nice little playground for kids as well at the back.
Whats better than Taco Bell? Taco Loco of course! Delicious Mexican dishes and today I added smoky Margarita to my Fajitas
Food was delicious I have never ordered more than 1 or 2 main course meal before but was the best restaurant and highly recommended. Stuffs are awesome and friendly and also helpful. Thank yoi for your service.
Beautiful food. Best tacos in Auckland!
Great Nachos! Will definitely be back
Id be 10kg lighter if I didnt come here so often. 5/5 stars no question.
Absolutely brilliant spot great food and cocktails
This place is awesome, such a good find! We’ve been back once already and recommended it to friends.
Tasty and fun. Make sure you book.
Delicious tacos. Great atmosphere. Can bring your dog as well and sit outside (undercover). Great Mexican craft beer available as well. Definitely worth a try.
Always stop in there when im in auckland. Authentic mexican food, try the orchata drink for a truly mexican drink
Such delicious food and awesome service. Can’t wait to go again. Recommend the Lamb Barbacoa tacos if you have been wanting to try Birria tacos as they are very similar!
It’s the first Mexican Restaurant that I’ve been to in Auckland. Been here few times and I love their shrimp tacos, nachos, pulled pork burritos. Love their shop decorations too! On average, their servings are quite big. Slightly pricey but their food totally worth the price and experience. Services are good and they are real friendly. Can’t wait to go again!
