Review Los Locos Mexican Cantina - Waikanae

The food here was incredibly delicious, whilst perhaps a bit overpriced. Their seafood meals are fresh and tasty with genuine flavours. They also feature a different flavoured Margarita each week which are so yum!

As many reviews say, the food is delicious and service was good for us. When it gets busy the staff can get caught up serving drinks and don't spend enough time on follow up service on food. Larger groups may end up on benches which are not comfortable but the other seats are fine. Great place to sit outside and have a light meal and a drink and listen to some live music. My only real complaint is the price which is quite high for what you get.

Absolutely delicious! Great service, accommodating, yummy, fast, well priced, gorgeous views for sunset, lots of specials. Strongly recommend! Your tummy will thank me ♡

Had put off coming with mixed reviews. So glad we did it was AWESOME. Drinks amazing and food flavorful delicious and fresh. Our table tried most of menu between us all and it was all great. Highly recommend

It isn’t great having a Coriander allergy and going to a Mexican place where literally everything is laced but the staff went out of their way to check my meal didn’t contain Coriander which was very much appreciated - my fiancée really enjoyed her Burrito and lastly the Margaritas are a trap as they’re so good. Thanks guys!

Los Locos is the place to go for fantastic Mexican cuisine. The menu caters for vegans, gluten free and meat lovers alike. If you love a good margarita paired with tacos and tapas, this place is for you! The atmosphere was warm and welcoming. I highly recommend a walk along the beach afterwards!

First time visitor and I'll be back next time I'm in town. Warmly greeted with a Hola! from the staff and taken to our seats. Food arrived in a timely manner and was very tasty. Our group started with tortilla chips and guacamole. I had the asada beef grande burrito (pictured). I'm not one for spicy food but there was just the right amount of heat for me when I finished it. We didn't do desert as the burritos filled the spot. Thanks guys!

so good, great variety of eats. specially enjoyed the margaritas... As I was driving, I had 1 of the alcohol style... And a few of the mock.. Both delicious 🍸🍹😘

Fantastic food with great service and a heck of a location. What's not to like?

Wow. If you love Mexican food, definitely make the trip. Lovely to walk on beach afterwards. Watch out for any carrots on your plates 😉🔥

Food was delicious and good value, but I feel like the chef could use a hug. At some point the music stopped, and all we could hear for the rest of the meal was him berating his (much younger, mostly female) kitchen staff, who looked harried and stressed. Not exactly the kind of ambiance that invited us to linger over dessert. Having said all that: the fajitas are excellent, although you’ll definitely need to get more tortillas to pack away all that filling.

Great location right in the beach. Loved the vibe, awesome service and music. Food was superb! we tried all the different tacos between us and they were all really tasty. Would high recommend the frozen margaritas too. Will definitely be back!

Delicious food, great service. The vegetarian fajita was a rich tapestry of flavors and colors and a large satisfying meal. The margheritas were excellent and the kids versions fun too. Everyone had a great meal and when enjoyed the background music. Would be a great end to a day of holiday, a gathering or celebration, outside in good weather and timed for the sunset...

Great outdoor setting. Food good value. Crew worked hard with host keeping close eye on things. Good beer selection on tap except for Dutch beer option from Old Indie Tuatara brewery.

Came here with my friend for lunch last week and had lovely food and great service. The girl who seated us was friendly and the rest of the team were very nice. Will definitely return for their margaritas after dry July!!
