3/5 stars
This place had been on my to-try list ever since I was singing Mazunte's praises to a friend, who hotly contested "Tacos Locos is way better."
He was wrong, so we're no longer friends.
Tacos Locos, which roughly translates to "Livin' la Vida Taco," is a food truck. You know, the kind that moves on wheels. Which MEANS it's not always at the address listed here, as I found out the hard way. I had ordered over the phone and, because I went to the wrong location, I called to see if they could hang around after-hours so I could still pickup, to which they happily obliged. +1 for Ravenslaw
Speaking of slaw, this is where the score moves to red. I ordered 2 veggie tacos and a veggie quesadilla, both of which were heavy on cucumber. I've been to Mexico almost as often as I've been to Kentucky, and let me tell you, Mexico's not throwing any parades for cucumbers. But besides this green seed mishap:
1) The tacos didn't have cheese, and Mexico definitely has parades for cheese.
2) Cilantro was very dry, but as a weekly cilantro procurer, I can empathize with the fact that its shelf-life is shorter than your step-dad's temper.
3) The photo of the menu on yelp is also shorter than the current menu, so when I saw the full vegetarian list, both my heart and stomach were filled with #FoodFOMO. I will say, the current menu offers more appealing vegetarian options than most places in town. (But that doesn't make up for them replacing cheese with cucumbers)
4) Also, their "mild" sauce is hot sauce, and "hot sauce" is butt fire. #buyerbeware
I may be back to try their "deluxe" veggie options, because everyone knows that "deluxe" means the vegetables come gold-plated.
