La Torta was absolutely amazing. Every single thing I've had there was Beyond Amazing. Not a bad thing on the menu, food, alcohol, desserts all all absolutely fantastic and beyond amazing. The staff are always nice, and really kind. Like my lord. Also the ambiance was fantastic, the Lucador decor is great. read more

Intriguing decor. I ordered the torta (sandwich) with steak and onions - no cheese. I thought the bread should have been grilled for more flavor. I recall the tortas are made with mayo but there wasn't much of that spread on the bread. The sauce on the table improved the flavor. The torta was tasty but I left most of the bread on my plate. Margaritas were okay - not much of a kick. There was more ice in the glass than beverage. Best thing we ordered were the tortilla chips with avocado. Yum! I would eat there again and try something different. They get an A+ for branding! Memorable and artistic. Check out the women's bathroom (if you're a woman) and see how nicely appointed it is. read more

First time here, this was the cutest hole-in-the-wall eatery we have been to. The food was delicious. It was authentic Venezuelan food, and maybe some more-southern Mexican dishes as well. Absolutely wonderful food, served piping hot. There was so much to choose from menu-wise and now I will have to return to try some of the other dishes they offer. We love Birria tacos, and while they were cooked to perfection, the sauce that came with it was a bit bland. There were no fountain drinks, the soda ordered came in a bottle with a glass of ice, which is fine but that means there are no refills. The staff was friendly, the restaurant was clean, the food really good. Will definitely return. read more

4.5 stars for sure!! La Torta Loca is another must try spot in Florence, KY. Torta's are a Mexican sandwich typically made with a soft or crusty bread roll and filled with a variety of meats, cheeses, and toppings. La Torta Loca is serving up some of the best Tortas out there. They have incredible combinations that taste delicious especially when combined with one of the three sauces already at the table. My personal favorite being the garlic sauce. With as many options as they have and the amount of flexibility they offer with what you can add and substitute, this has easily become one of my fav spots to stop by. There's also plenty of seating inside to come with a group or just on your own. Go check them out you won't want to miss this!! read more

went for midweek lunch. No wait, as there were only 2 other people eating. Staff was friendly and helpful with the menu. Be aware, you do not get chips and salsa to snack on while you order. Not a dealbreaker, but caught us off guard. Menu is large and lots of options. Waitress was extremely helpful in recommending options. Portions were HUGE and good value for the size. Food was fresh and came out in a timely manner. Neat little vibe to this place. This place is a little difficult to find, but well worth it. read more

Normally I love this place and the food is amazing. BUT do not go during lunch or when it's super packed. I got a tiny consume for 5 birria tacos (the same size they give you for 3 tacos) and theres next to cheese on them. Sad because every other time we've been we've raved about the food. read more

After an endless string of Americanized menus, it was so refreshing to try a Mexican restaurant with completely different offerings. No burritos or flautas, no chimichangas or combo platters. Instead the menu focuses on street food -- tortas, arepas, empanadas and street tacos -- all delicious and authentic. And the sweet plantains were superb! The service was quick and friendly, the atmosphere colorful and festive, and the prices were reasonable. A word to the wise, however: it's a small place with maybe a dozen tables and some bar seating, so it can get pretty stacked up during peak dinner hours. If you can avoid the crowds during off peak hours, you'll find plenty to like about this one. read more

La Torta Loca offers some of the best Mexican-Venezuelan-Peruvian fusion food. The margaritas are yummy and their handmade arepas are amazing. So amazing that our friends from out of town request ordering them whenever they visit. read more

Best Mexican food around. And the staff is always so nice. Been coming here for years and will always come back

Stopped here for the second time, about 4 moths after my first visit. Everything is still great. This time I had three tacos. One silverback one birria and one barbacoa. They were all delicious. The silverback has chorizo and was very large. It was really too much food. Service was good and the food came out quick. I will try to get back here next time I'm in town. read more

This place is great! The food is delicious! It's authentic Mexican. The margarita was good but could use a little more punch and salt. The torta was delicious and they had lots of options and they're huge! We also got the chips salsa and guacamole. All good! And their other salsas were great! The last thing we tried was the arepa. Yum! We'll be back! read more

It was extremely loud with birthday celebrations which I'm sure people enjoy but we were not there for a birthday celebration and it was very overwhelming and startling. So I would just be prepared if we go again. The food was adequate. The servers work very hard but seemed to be called away frequently for these startling birthday moments adding to their duties which does take away from service. read more

I ordered 1 fish taco with no onions. I got 1 piece of fish with two corn tortillas and cilantro. I got more tortilla than fish. Taste = good, overall = disappointed. My friend ordered the same thing, but got two pieces of fish and a lime. My taco was $5.99. So disappointed. read more

We love the place, is my go to when I'm feeling Mexican. However I'd say that the quality of the patacon comes and goes. I've gotten it quite a few times so I can definitely say that it's not always as good but it's still good. Birria tacos weren't our favorite but they weren't bad either. I recommend their tortas and the tres leches cake (although it's the same as the patacon, quality comes and goes) overall a good place. read more

La Torta Loca is a little off the beaten path, but WELL worth the detour or special trip. You're guaranteed to love it from the moment you park your car. The mural out front is fun and bright and inviting. The entry way has a faux plant wall that is totally Insta-worthy. The restaurant itself has the coolest vibe and awesome murals. My brother, his gf, and I went for lunch recently and loved it. The service was stellar. There are several sauces on the table, so you can customize your food to your taste (the white sauce is SO GOOD). What we ordered: -Sampler Appetizer-- fried yuca, botakitos, & sweet plantains (You could choose 3 of the following: fried yuca, mini cachapas, chips or tostones and guacamole, tequeños, fried arepitas, botakitos, sweet plantains, or elote)- Sadly, they were out of Venezuelan food, so we couldn't try several of the items we were excited for. The items we got were good, but the portions were definitely smaller than expected. The botakitos were good, but a little too simple and the sauce/salad in the bottom of the cup was not great. The sweet plantains were PERFECT. So good I ended up adding a sweet plantain and cheese empanada to my order. -the torta loca torta- HUGE, juicy, and delicious -the reina pepia arepa- Sadly, I would not order this again. It was just a little too bland. It helped to add some sauce. -a birria taco- my brother's girlfriend tried this and LOVED it. She said it was one of the best she had ever had. -a Huitlacoche taco- interesting! I would eat it again, but wasn't the best thing I had. -a pumpkin flower empanada- I had never had anything pumpkin flower before, but really enjoyed it. It reminded me a lot of a loroco flower pupusa. -a sweet plantain & cheese empanada- JUST SO GOOD -a seafood empanada- brother's gf ordered and LOVEDDD We all agreed that the empanada dough was some of the best we have EVER had!! I would absolutely go back to try more of them! Not being able to try the Venezuelan apps and some of the flavors being a little underwhelming are why I gave this experience 4 vs. 5 stars. read more

La Torta had a great atmosphere, super creative and fun interior filled with creative murals and art installations. The staff were friendly and helpful and showed they really care about their spot. The menu had an overwhelming amount of tasty sounding options, with more Torta varieties than I've ever seen. I tried the signature Torta Loca and felt like I needed a nap after the first 1/2 of it worth it! Overall it was a fun surprise and did not disappoint. read more

After seeing and hearing good reviews from lots of different folks, my girlfriend and I decided to stop by and give this place a try! We placed a to-go order. Ordering online was simple and the food was ready pretty quickly. We got to the restaurant to pick up our food, walked right in, and got our food almost instantly. The inside is decorated super well and there's some seating outside as well! Let's get to the food: everything sounded so good we couldn't make up our mind, so we decided to sample almost one of everything and split it. We got a chorizo/cheese and a shredded beef empanada. The shell of the empanada was so good and both fillings complimented it perfectly. It came with a sauce to dip them in and that was delightful. Next we had the la mexicana arepa with carnitas, cilantro and cheese with a special spicy, creamy salsa. The arepa tasted great, out of all the different meats we tried the carnitas was last on the list, but it was still tasty! (That's how good this place is) Then we moved onto the birria quesadilla. This item definitely would've been better enjoyed while at the restaurant, but we couldn't resist. Even though it got a little bit soggy by the time we went to eat it -- it was so yummy. The beef, the consume, was all extremely flavorful. We're excited to try this again when we are able to dine in. The last thing we had and the star of the show was the torta. We went with the pepito version which had steak, chicken, bacon, cheese, fries and signature sauces. When we opened the box and saw how huge this thing was we were shook, haha. Definitely bigger than my head. The torta was so good. I've never had anything like it and will for sure get it again. All in all -- this place is really freaking good! All the hype is accurate and they deserve the rave reviews. We've added this to our regular rotation. Stay tuned for another review once we dine-in here for the first time. read more

I was told this was the best Mexican restaurant-not so HOWEVER it is very good if you see it as Venezuela food, something different! To me this place is nothing like Mexican even though they have tacos but Venezuela style. If you don't like change, this not the place for you. If you like to try something different-this is a good place to eat. I didn't like it at first but wanted to try something else on menu that was popular more on the Venezuela side and loved it. Atmosphere is great! Service is really good too. read more

This place is great! There is plenty to look at on the walls. The entree sizes are great. We easily got two meals out of our dishes. It is a smaller restaurant so you may have to wait, but it is worth it. We don't live in the area but always make it a point to stop by when we are around and we haven't been disappointed. Tortas, quesadillas, arepas, tacos: everything we've had has been delicious! Can't wait to go back. read more

Visited the restaurant on Sunday afternoon to catch up with a friend. The restaurant was busy we got the last table. We tried sampler platter with plantains, corn cake's & guacamole. The guacamole and chips were good, but $15 for the sampler the plantains & corn cakes were really little The fried quesadillas are huge & with it being Venezuelan it's a fried corn cake shell & fresher than just tons of cheese & a meat. I ended up having leftovers & enjoyed the quesadilla even more. With the restaurant being busy it took a while to receive our food. I saw variety of other tables enjoying torta sandwiches. read more

First time visiting and thoroughly enjoyed it. Cute little place with lots of personality. Greeted and seated right away. Very clean and saw them constantly cleaning tables while we were there. First off, servings are HUGE. We ordered chips and guac for appetizer and you could tell they were both freshly made. The chips came out warm. The Torta's are large enough to share and both people would be full. The bread is very fresh and soft. Looking forward to going back and trying other items on the menu. read more

Wow, what a great find for when my family visits Florence! La Torta Loca is down Pleasant Valley Road from where my father-in-law lives, and my husband found it after searching Yelp on a recent visit. 250+ reviews and five stars overall! This we had to try out. On our most recent takeout order, my husband and I split the Tropicana torta, which was definitely enough for two. I really loved the mix of grilled chicken, chipotle sauce, pineapple and cheeses. It was comfort food to rave about. My favorite part of our order, though, was the La Catira arepa with shredded grilled chicken in guajillo and chipotle sauce, with grilled cheese. The thick, tortilla-like bread of this handheld delight was warm and just perfect. Loved the fillings. I might get a couple of these next time and make it a meal. We also got the sweet plantains, my favorite side dish. La Torta Loca is such a treasure. I look forward to going back very soon! read more

They are a combination of Mexican and Venezuelan food and it's just a super hit. They are located in this small strip mall of the main road that is easy to locate near the gas station. The interior ambience is good and has colorful decor. Their customer service is great. They have few vegetarian options. Their food portion is really huge and filling. We went here from work and it was filling until the next morning. They have parking in front of them. I don't know if they have vegan options or not. I also don't know about outdoor seating. But they are family friendly and business casual. This place is a definite must. read more

This was our first time here, we did a carry out order. We have been on a super big Torta kick and this place was decently close to our house. When we got there (5 minutes past our pick up time) my torta bun was literal mush. It was so bad I literally couldn't eat it, while my spouses was slightly soggy, mine was like someone soaked it in water and then put it together. No other restaurant have we had this experience with, my torta was pretty much inedible. My spouses meat had good flavor and our chips and queso was delicious, chips were soft and great for my spouse who had sensitive teeth and always complains that chips are too hard on his teeth. We will give a second chance but pretty disappointed with our first experience here. read more

A bit off of the highway (conveniently the same exit as Costcto) and in a random shopping center that doesn't augur much, this place had an extensive menu of Venezuelan and Mexican specialties with clear and interesting vegetarian options. I was offered a set of four sauces for my arepa, which are common choices in Venezuelan cuisine and they are all good so it is really hard to pick. I ended up using all four on my modest but delicious arepa domino. The taco choices included huitlacoche, a fungus that grows on corn and has an interesting earthy flavor, and the way they prepared it contrasted with the fresh fixins on top nicely. They had some beverages (though not a beverage menu I could discern) and while I was the first one in they were quickly beginning to fill up by the time I left with what looked like happy customers. read more

This place is wonderful!! The employees and owner have great customer service!! This time I went with my husband. We had the appetizer sample, our three choices were perfect, but I think any options will be wonderful!! Their guacamole is perfect!! I haven't liked tripe, but the owner suggested I try it crispy and she was RIGHT! The texture and flavor was just right!! His Carne Asada Tacos and Birria Tacos were great!!! Always be patient with wait times, because everything is fresh and everywhere has wait time issues. Sometimes it's nice to slow down and enjoy the time with your friends or family! I live about 30 minutes from them, but can't wait to come back!! read more

I came in expecting just some taco and Torta options but was met with a diverse menu that also included empanadas and arepas! Since I was alone and couldn't pass up the guacamole with fresh chicharron I opted for a couple of taco options instead of a torta. The chicharrones were great but a bit much fried goodness for one person. I preferred the silverback taco to the street taco. The menu had some tasty sounding margarita options including a cotton candy flavor. Next trip I'll bring friends so we can share a bunch of options! read more
