This restaurant is tucked away in a small little strip mall, along Highway 52 in Dacono. From the outside, it looks like it is closed as the windows appear to be boarded up. However, inside very colorful, attentive, wait staff with booth's and tables, and a section for a private party. The food overall is pretty decent. Good spices and flavor and plentiful. The House Tortilla Chips come with salsa which is delicious. Try the Al Pastor Tacos and or an ale carte burrito with green chili. read more

Great place. The portion size is very good. The chile relleno is wonderful. I suggest the hard. Staff was quick and attentive and the food was just wonderful. I am a big eater and still could. It finish it all. Leftovers!!!! I also really liked the salsa. Wow great flavor with a slight amount of kick. Highly recommend this place and will be back read more

I love going to this place, the food is absolutely fantastic! The service team that they have there is awesome, the ambience is awesome as well. This is a big restaurant with a lot of space. They have the best margaritas, I cannot say enough about this place give it a shot, you will not be disappointed. I can't say enough about the food. It's excellent.! read more

Great food but strange experience tonight! I shared a margarita with my 21 year old daughter. She was carded, all good. As we are leaving, we are chased to the car (older lady, assume the owner) to see what was in the to go cup (Horchata she just poured) When I asked what that was about she got angry, mumbled and walked away...wtf! That is enough to lose our business. It's a shame since we are there three times per month. Time to find a favorite new spot in the area. Any recommendations? read more

3rd time here this morning..1st time really good ,2nd time not so much portions were smaller and Luke warm AND THIS time the 3rd time I'm not sure I was at the same restaurant .Sunday morning very busy short wait to be expected after we were seated almost 30 mins yo take all our drink orders. Now it's almost 1hour & 23 minutes and still no one has taken our order .I had to ask one of the wait staff if we could place our order now its 1hr & 48 mins and the group before us is starting to rec their food .we still have our menus no silverware and our drinks are mt..17 mins later and our food starts to arrive all but one order .she didn't get her order Till we were done eating( She ask for a to go box before her food arrived cause we all were almost done)and HER asking TWICE ..HOW MUCH LONGER. At this time we're putting on our jackets and a waitress ask me how was everything and I replied if you were doing your job you would already know the answer to your question..7 in our group..no special orders or drinks , items right off the menu. I've been around the restaurant business all my life .we all have bad days no matter what we do...understandable. but they knew they dropped the ball and to avoid asking us how things were or at least trying to keep a future long time customer by a kind gesture they just tried to avoid us ...probably won't be back & will share my experience.... read more

We're long time patrons (years). We've always had great food and service. However, we went last night and things were different. The service was less than desirable. A simple bean and cheese burrito was made incorrectly. I always order the raw oysters, and they have always been outstanding...but this time, they were horrible...but we still were charged full price for them. We were made to feel like we were an inconvenience...and as a result, I indicated that we may not return...and they appeared to not care about that. It's a shame, we really thought that we meant something to them. They have always been our favorite restaurant to go to...but now we're not so sure. read more

Food is always great here. Love the salsa. Some of the best green chili and chili fella is. Love eating here with the family.

El Taco was initially a great discovery but disappoints with mediocre quality, surly service, and charging excessively for items that usually come standard with a meal. My recent order of fajitas To GO was delivered by curt and abrupt staff. I've been eating fajitas for thirty years and expect a side of guacamole, salsa, and sour cream unless the menu indicates otherwise. After paying $24 for basic fajitas, I was charged $2.11 for 1 oz of sour cream. 35 cents, a dollar, is normal for a side of sour cream or salsa at a hole in the wall place. This isn't exactly a fancy restaurant in a booming metropolitan area. The carry out bag had spilled food which seeped into my tortillas turning them to mush. I picked 6 small bones out of the meat in my soup, and, most of the meat was covered in gristle or fat. . read more

Getting one star because I can't leave less!! To start off the service is absolutely terrible. Should have gotten up and left after waiting so long for someone to wait on us after we were seated but the menu looked very good, unfortunately it wasn't. I had seafood dish that was $25.99, supposed to be with fresh fish, shrimp, mussels, calamari, baby Octopus and imitation crab. There was more imitation crab than anythingand it was so overcooked that it was tasteless mush. Shrimp were so small and overcooked you needed a steak knife to cut them. The mussel and Octopus were so overcooked they shrunk down and you couldn't find them and the calamari was like leather. The only thing not overcooked was the over abundance of peppers and onions. The side dish is fried potatoes was just cold and greasy and the slices Avocado came out as guacamole undated Instead. Never saw it waitress after we ordered and she ignored me when ever i tried to get her attention. The other 2 meals that came out conservatively 10 minutes after mine were also overcooked. What more can i say. DO NOT GO HERE YOU WILL BE HAPPY YOU DIDN'T!!! read more

Phenomenal food! True and authentic! The building is kinda sketchy from the outside. But inside and the food! A++

We were so excited to try this place but unfortunately the food was not good. The kids quesadillas were okay. We got the tacos Al pastor, barbicoa tacos, and a shrimp burrito. Everything tasted old and reheated. It was disappointing read more

Traveling thru the area, my husband and I were super hungry and sick of drive thru. We found El Tack Loco and decided to give it a try; don't let the distance detour you and defiantly don't pass this place up!! Service speedy and friendly and food came out quick and hot!! The horchata was legit and we were both stuffed by the time we left... house tortilla chips and spicy salsa were great too!! read more

El Taco Loco II - Shrimp and fish taco plates with horchata! Nice and hot served with a smile!! - Mexican Near Me - Dacono, Colorado

Salsa and chips are good. Salsa had a nice kick in the pants hotness about it. The their special combination platter was water down Mexican food. No real flavor. I'll go back and try another dish but this $15 dish was not a favorite. read more

El Taco Loco II - Tostada, taco l, bean and cheese burrito, tamale, Chile relleno, and enchilada. - Mexican Near Me - Dacono, Colorado

Service was absolutely terrible. Our waiter was rude, and had an attitude. She gave us attitude at all times. Not smiled once.

This fine establishment is in Dacono Colorado and now one of my favorite restaurants, everything I've eaten here has been the best! Including the chips and salsa! I got the Camerone enchilada plate, huge amount of food also so it was so great! Oh p.s. Dacono is known as a notorious speed trap so don't hurry there and take your time and enjoy your meal! read more

1st time going here. It was amazing. The food was awesome. Got our food quick. The staff was very friendly. Portions were big. Got refills on drinks quickly too. Will definitely be back again. read more

Service was very hard to get, and it took almost 25 minutes just to order our drinks, the staff was very friendly, and the ambience was good. The food was not that great and cost a lot of money. read more

The food is good we went on a Friday and they do try to work quick even if it is busy the tacos de alambrey are really tasty. But be warned the short young girl with the low pony tail was really rude and gave us attitude, she threw our cups down and acts like she owns the place. The young boys however were nice. They also seem a bit disorganized with who is doing what and when but over all they are a good place to eat if you want some less americanized mexican food read more

Meat is 80%,10%lean and 10% of something else... Pricey and taste ? That other10% of something takes all the authenticity of Mexican food. (Asada and barbacoa) I order a burrito idk about the other stuff in the menu. read more

Lady with blonde and black hair totally ignored us the whole time we were there. She brings out waters and chips and then after 30 minutes she comes to us and says "is there a problem" like yes we just wanted to order so she comes and brings us menus and we already knew what we wanted and then she goes to the front and stands there and ignored us. So we left read more

Lunch there today. Service good and quick. Meal cold (but fast) enchilada sauce disappointing.

We have had several great meals here. Very tastie food and friendly staff. So glad we found it.

Not accommodating to vegetarians. Waitress was rude!! Chips were awesome. If you chips this place rocks. Can't say enough about chips. Unlimited chips. Actually the waitress just brought out a vegetarian meal. I change my review. However chips still rock. read more

We walked in to a really cute atmosphere. The wait staff was very friendly but I have to say the worst Mexican food I've ever had. I don't know what happened maybe they don't have a cook that knows what they're doing. But I can say right now we will never go back! read more

Great service. Tamales were top notch. Flavorful chile verde. Large portion sizes, even on their specials. read more

Really like the food here. It's in a little hole in the wall strip mall. Not always the friendliest service, but the food always comes out great. Also, it's usually nice and quick. Definitely more authentic than your Hacienda big box crap. read more

I know a lot of people that love this place but can't say that I have really found anything I would right home about. Tried something simple this time, fajitas, there special for Wednesday's. Nothing special there. The meat was chewy and no flavor. read more

I blame lying reviewers for me ever trying this place. I would run from this place! I so want to give this place a -5 star. Worst service ever. Food was gross and cold. Had the Molcajete bowl and it was the worst. Chicken was cold, rock hard and dry. The steak and pork were also the same. It took FOREVER to get our food, 1 hour and we were one of three groups here on Saturday at 7pm. The waitress was super rude to me and my wife the whole time we were here. We could only get one round of drinks because the waitress ignored us and also kept forgetting to get our drinks. I'm not really sure why people rate this place so high? My best guess would be they keep mistaking this place for Burrito Delight or Three Margaritas? There is absolutely no way they have eaten here and lived to talk about it. I think people look for the Mexican place they ate at and can't find the right place, so they just choose this one to write about. It's also funny how the people reviewing this place live no where near it and have way better choices in their own neighborhood? I actually blame these people for lying about how great it was and duped me into trying this place. Thanks a lot! They also have the weirdest hours? Never sure when they are open or closed? They are closed most nights and weekends. read more

Best chili cheese fries with steak around also been there several times and stays the same

Solid food and great service. Get the gorditas. Breakfast is great also. Some perfect pancakes and great chorizo burritos. Get the horchata.

Thank you to the wonderful staff at El Taco Loco for helping make our family reunion so wonderful. The food and service was great and staff was very friendly and helpful. One guy even joined the party for a quick second when he ask my cousin if she needed anything and she replied "just looking for a dance partner". I would definitely come back here again for fajitas, drinks and good times. Thanks again - Jose Hernandez read more

Well eating our lunch we see two mice run right by our table. Disgusting never coming back. Gross!!! Waitress played dumb with us when we told her. read more

Food is just ok. One of the older servers is a complete bitch.sopapillas are horrible.They served the sopes with syrup??

We went in last night to pick up take out. We ordered the combo plate. The meal was inedible. One bite into the Chile rellano it tasted tasted rotten, like dirty mushrooms. The enchilada and burrito were no better. This morning my boyfriend started vomiting and got the runs. It has gone on all day. I have all symptoms of food poisoning. I called the restaurant regarding this and they did not seem to care. Beware when eating there. I will be reporting them to the health department. read more

My husband and I have been here a handful of times, and once for breakfast. The food never disappoints. The staff is for the most part friendly. And the prices are very affordable. read more

Excellent food!!! Quick service and excellent space for groups. Get the marinated chicken !!!

Outside is a little intimidating, but the food is great and reasonable compared to others in the area. Support local and you won't be disappointed. read more
