Taco Loco was one of our food trucks at our wedding and boy, did they do a good job! Their tacos are delicious, cater to all allergies and are produced at a fast rate so guests don't have to wait in line. Plus Roger and his team are lovely to work with. I would happily recommend!

Hired Taco Loco for a 21st, they were so accommodating and lovely! The service and level of care was exceptional and really made the night special. The selection and quality of the food was brilliant and kept all of the guest very happy, even the vegetarians. They not only brought there iconic caravan but they set up decorations and had snacks for those who were in line. I cannot recommend them enough, your party or event will have an exceptional edge that the guests love. A little bit of Mexico is what every party needs. :)

Absolutely love this place!! I used to live in México and find that this is the only restaurant in Auckland that provides mexican authenticity. Prices are really reasonable for what you get and don’t even get me started on the Michelada 😍

I love this place. The food was delicious but my fave for the night was my Frida Colada which is their twist on a pina colada! highly reccommend, especially on a hot day. The vibes were so good! We had a great time

I really love the variety of Mexican dishes here. They’re all pretty authentic too, not like other mass Mexican chains. I ordered the tostadas and thought it was really nice, portion sizes were generous.

My second time here. Great atmosphere. Had a mariachi band this time. Last time was Mexican bin go night. Food is excellent. Over 2 visits I have samples a lot. I can recommend carnitas burrito and prawn qaesadilla. I have to say service last time was very slow. They were slammed in a Saturday night. But all the staff are really lovely and create a nice fun atmosphere. I'll be back.

Awesome place with tasty food and good service. We had the fish tacos, Vege enchiladas, and the potato flautas with a deep fried banana for dessert. All of which were SO good, there are loads of vegetarian options too which is another plus. The food took a while to come out but the servers were so lovely it made up for it. We will definitely be back.

One of our favourite spots when we want a more casual setting. The margarita are always good (warning, they’re strong!) as well as their mulled wine. Beef birria tacos are probable the favourite here. But what stands out for Taco Locos tacos, is the use of two corn tortillas per taco which is great. We usually have 3 sets of tacos between two which is plenty and could probably go with 2 sets and a side. The atmosphere and staff are always lovely, just make sure to book if there’s more than two of you and you’re coming on a busy night.

We had the absolute pleasure of dining at Taco Loco, and the experience was nothing short of spectacular. The chimichanga, a delightful dish of chicken and meat, was cooked to crispy perfection, with each bite oozing with flavor. The tacos dorados were a crunchy revelation, and the dessert, Tres Leches, was a dreamy, creamy end to a fantastic meal. The warmth and hospitality of Roger, the Brazilian owner, added a personal touch that made the lunch even more special. And Victor’s culinary skills were evident in every dish that came to our table. A heartfelt thanks to the entire Taco Loco team for such an unforgettable dining experience. Highly recommended to all!

We tried tonight’s special taco and it was easily the best taco we ever had! Quesadilla was also a delight and felt authentic. Lastly, we finished our meal with 3 Leches and I would say it was superb. Also, the waitress made our overall experience outstanding. Not only was she friendly but her energy brightens up the atmosphere. Definitely gonna go back to this place!

Taco Loco was quite a pleasant experience for me. First, the atmosphere: beautifully decorated and I loved all the signage in Spanish. I had my food at the rear patio, which can be quite hot if it's sunny. The beef nachos were delicious and abundant, I almost couldn't finish them but they were too good to leave the plate with leftovers. They felt authentic and that must be because the chef is Latino. They have a good selection of hot sauces and they even had my favourites: green habanero and Valentina. I was surprised with a salsa I hadn't tried before named 'borracha' (I think), you need to try it. And the service was exceptional: The food arrive fast to the table. I was served by Ana and Sol who were very kind to me and we even chatted for a while, but th;ey were always alert to perform their duties. I think they are very valuable people and it's good when you leave a place with a smile. And that's the reason I am doing this review. Taco Loco is not just a cantina in Auckland, it's an exprience. It's the people, the service, the athmosphere, the food. I recommend and would definitely come back :)

Delicious food, but small portions for the price. $14 was a little steep for the size of chips and guac, and there were only a few tiny prawns on each taco. Aside from the food, the service was fabulous-- very attentive. Atmosphere was definitely like a cantina, too!

Taco Loco, the taco truck we hired for our wedding, was absolutely amazing! They made our special day even more memorable with their delicious food and excellent service. From the moment we contacted them, they were so easy to work with. They made everything simple and hassle-free. The staff were all incredibly friendly and kind, making sure that our guests were taken care of and happy. The speed of service was fantastic, with no long lines or waiting times. And most importantly, the food was absolutely delicious! Our guests couldn't stop raving about it. The tacos were fresh, flavorful, and authentic. They even accommodated dietary restrictions for some of our guests without any issues. We were so pleased with everything about Taco Loco, and we would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a delicious and stress-free catering option. Thank you, Taco Loco, for being a part of our special day and for making it so amazing!
