LOQUI - Mexican Near Me - Playa Vista, California

Dropped by this place for a quick meal and drink and was impressed by the quality of the food. My boyfriend and friend got a couple of the tacos and the quality and flavor of the meats was amazing. They were all heavily seasoned and incredibly flavorful. I will say I docked down a star for the price as I feel $8+ per taco is a bit excessive and not super reasonable for the amount of food you get For $20. While the tacos are bigger than a typical taco you'd get, $16+ for tacos is a bit high in my opinion. The margaritas were okay, we thought they tasted good but were quite sweet and lacking in tequila. My hibiscus one mainly tasted like a juice and not a margarita, I'm also assuming They were canned cocktails for $12 which again feels really high as it's a small cup with a lot Of ice. I got their kids meal which comes with a small cup of guac, chips and a quesadilla. The quesadilla was simple as expected but I enjoyed the chips and guac. It was overall a yummy place but the price makes me hesitant to come back as I feel your money doesn't go very far here. I agree with other reviews that I would love more options for variety here, and think it'd be cool if they had a base price where you could pick and choose what you wanted in the items rather than only the few prefixed tacos and bowls. If it was more affordable I would def see myself coming frequently as the tacos were really good. read more

LOQUI - Kids quesadilla and margarita - Mexican Near Me - Playa Vista, California

We wanted something fast-casual that still felt healthy, thoughtful, and genuinely delicious. Vibe / Space: Located in a shared space with other shops and eateries, it's airy and relaxed with plenty of indoor seating plus a large patio. Easygoing, neighborhood-friendly energy. Order / Standouts: The mushroom bowl is a standout. It's earthy, satisfying, and perfect with all the sides (beans, rice, guacamole). Don't skip the seasonal cantaloupe drink--refreshing, lightly sweet, and clearly made with care. Service: 10/10. Warm, kind, and generous without feeling rushed. Good For: A quick, casual bite when you want something nourishing and high quality. Price / Value: Expect ~$20+ per person for a bowl and a drink, which feels fair given the freshness and execution. Parking: Paid lot across the street (first hour free) plus free street parking nearby. The area feels safe and walkable if you need to park a bit farther. What It's Known For / Buzz: Loqui has a loyal following for its produce-forward bowls, house-made tortillas, and rotating seasonal beverage. Pro Tip Always ask about the seasonal drink--it's worth it. read more

The eloquence. The locquaciousness. The absence of locust. It's all irrelevant as it regards finding groovy Mexican food. LOQUI brings it. We had a couple of BOWLS: Chicken and pulled pork. The meat was well-seasoned and reasonably tender. Nice combo of guac, onions, that cojita cheese often found on Mexican dishes, plus tasty pinto beans. The CHIPS are killer; crunchy and hot. I had to kinda look for this joint; craftily tucked away into a corner of the Market area - just south of the theater. When presented with paper bowls, plastic forks and chuck-it-yourself serving trays, I tend to shy away. I didn't prejudge it though and was glad I didn't...this was a good, quick and quality meal for a decent price. Factor in that they offer a couple of options of BOTTLED ICE COLD BEER and this was a winner. read more

The best flour tortillas! Love them! I ordered the chicken and carnitas tacos - so good, flavorful! Looking forward to trying other items on the menu. read more

I just luuuuvvvvvvv a good taco and I mean a good one!!! As a practicing vegetarian I was truly amazed! My neighbor and I decided to catch up over tacos! She picked Loqui because she knew I was vegetarian so she wanted me to have options. The place was in a cute spot in Playa Vista with plenty of parking. When we arrived there was a menu to choose from. Lemme tell you this - I love a place where the menu is simple. Loqui said, "this is what we got, it's good! But it's what we got!" I'm a true believer that less is more. The cashier was sweet as pie answering all my questions so that I would make the best decision. I appreciate that. I got 2 Anaheim chile tacos, a side of rice and beans and a hibiscus margarita! Mmm mmmm!!!! I sure do love me some rice and beans! I wanna start with them because if you mess up rice and beans then the rest of the menu might as well hop off the page and go home. Their rice and beans were good!! They even sprinkled some cacique cheese on it. Yum-meee! My tacos - yo!!! I didn't think I would like an Anaheim chile taco but they were GUD! The chiles were roasted well, they added bean, guacamole, cheese onions and cilantro. You have a choice of corn or flour tortilla. I went with flour. I ordered the salsa and peanuts on the side because my tolerance for spicy is literally at a 1! I munched those tacos up and washed them down with the hibiscus margarita. It was such a perfect combo. Here's the kicker...... I was so full from the tacos I barely ate the rice & beans. I rubbed my belly. We were both happy. So the neighbor and I agreed Loqui would be our once a month spot. I need to do better with pictures.....I'm working on that! read more

Yum! Loqui is a cute Mexican restaurant located in the busy Runway Playa Vista. Its aesthetic is very modern with bold accents. I love the bright orange marigolds strung around the restaurant. Their menu is pretty straight forward offering tacos, bowls, sides, chips and beverages. Even though the menu is straight forward, they do offer some unique types of tacos and bowls. They have an achiote chicken, mushroom, pork conchita and more! I got the achiote chicken taco and a pork conchita taco. The tacos are big, stuffed with goodness. Both tacos were delicious; full of flavor and fresh ingredients. I would come back to try their spicy garlic shrimp taco and their beef birria taco. read more

This place is alright! It's inside of a food hall, that's part of a plaza that has restaurants, shops, a movie theatre, a grocery store, and medical offices. The entire area is nice, but be warned that the parking is quite expensive in the attached structure, with not many options to validate. The food is good quality, but not that flavorful. It's on the pricier side, and I wouldn't rush to return, but I'd say check it out if you're already there. :) read more

Good sized tacos for the price. Love the guac and chips. Very modern aesthetics with open seating. Great for weeknight dinner with the family. Bonus: you can walk a few steps to Jeni's after dinner to get dessert. read more

I've been ordering from Loqui for at least a few years now. If I was going to compare them to another restaurant, it would have to be Chipotle. I haven't eaten Chipotle in years because their food always had some sort of recall. I also think they're overrated. I think Loqui is overrated, too. Is the food fresh? Yes. Nice meat selections and the portions for their side meats and beans and rice are plentiful. The meat selections are flavorful. The beans and rice are extremely bland. I like their cheese quesadillas. Their tortilla chips are fresh and their guacamole is also good and fresh. When you have food delivered, they often have promos. When the guacamole and chips are free, they're piled on. When you pay for them, you get a lot of salsa, guacamole and even cotilla cheese on the side, but you don't receive enough chips. Their agua frescas are decent. The Jamaica is ok, but I would prefer if it was sweet. It doesn't have to be sugary sweet, but Jamaica is typically sweet, unless it's from Tender Greens, where it's gentrified Jamaica. The lemonade is really good. It's a little too sweet, but it's good on its own or if you mix it with the Jamaica. (I actually prefer the Jamaica mixed with the lemonade.) I loved the Cucumber Lime agua fresca, but it hasn't been available for months. The Cantaloupe agua fresca is just ok. They can actually pull it and bring Cucumber Lime back. The beverages are bottled now, which I prefer. They used to be served in cups with lids that had no openings and no straws. My primary issue with Loqui is, unlike Chipotle, there is not enough variety. I'm surprised they've stayed open so long without a vegetable-heavy menu. No salads or lettuce of any kind. A Mexican Caesar salad would be awesome. A green salad with an assortment of mixed vegetables would be appreciated, with a few good dressing options. An option of crispy tacos would be awesome. They should have flavorful rice and season their beans. No one wants bland food unless they have some sort of medical condition that requires such. I saw a cob of corn in a photo, but that's not an option via food delivery apps. Note to Loqui: options are a great thing. A few dessert options would also be nice. read more

Love Loqui. Fresh ingredients, food's always made and seasoned right. Love their agua frescas. One of my go-to spots in Playa Vista. read more

We were attracted by the bigger than average size tacos on Google and decided to give it a try. We ordered four kinds of tacos including: - pork cochinata (very spicy) - beef birria (a bit spicy) - achiote chicken - spicy garlic shrimp (a bit spicy) Overall I like the shrimp most followed by the chicken. They are not as moist as beef or pork but I likes crisp and clean flavor complimented by shredded veggies. The other two meats are full of juice and can be greasy if you are not into fat. The portion size is ok. $7 per taco is definitely in the expensive side but hey this is playa vista. The flavors are a modern take on the taco. If you are looking for legit down to earth traditional tacos, this place is not for you. read more

Such a cute spot. The tacos are great. Really liked the fresh gauc and the indoor outdoor experience. It's casual yet cool. Nice place to grab a lunch or order to go from. Parking structure ads a lot of ease. read more

I had a wonderful experience at Loqui this past weekend. Tucked inside the Runway Marketplace, Loqui has indoor and outdoor seating available. We sat outdoors which made for the perfect Sunday atmosphere. The service was great! Kind employees and a quick turn-around. I ordered the CHICKEN TACO and split two BIRRIA TACOS. I loved both of them! The chicken had a kick to it, and the birria was rich and incredible. You HAVE to try their flour tortillas-- thin, crisp, and perfect. I am so excited to come back! read more

I love Loqui~! Came here for some food, got the 1/2 chicken, 1/2 shrimp bowl. Always hits the spot. The beans, rice, and pickled onions are so good. I get the chips on the side, which tastes great. The staff are super friendly and the food came out super fast. I ordered ahead using the Loqui app, which is nice, and you can earn points for rewards~!!! read more

Not sure why anyone loves this place. There are so many more flavorful, fresh and tasty tacos in LA. The quesadilla is so salty cannot eat it. Chips hard as a rock. The flavor profile was somewhat bland like the rice and beans had virtually no flavor. For what you get the value is no here. The pork was good, not spicy at all frankly, but the potion size for the price is pathetic. First time and last time. Waste of money totally. read more

Ate here over the weekend before seeing a movie. I ordered two chicken tacos - they were very filling! Good flavor, a little spicy, which I enjoyed. Service was fast. They had a long line to order but it moved quickly and the tacos came out fast. They have indoor and outdoor seating, tucked into the shops at Playa Vista. It was nice to have a quick healthy food option instead of a sit down meal at the surrounding restaurants. read more

I've definitely reviewed Loqui before. Might have been the other location. I haven't met a menu item that I don't like. I'm also now bringing my two-year-old here, because there's a lot of items that she is trying and liking for the first time. Quesadilla, guacamole, etc. I went here this morning to try their breakfast tacos which I have not had before. I went with the New York steak breakfast taco and it was delicious. I will add my picture to the review so that you can see all of the ingredients, and what it looks like together. It wasn't as messy as some of their tacos can get, which I enjoyed. They have two additional breakfast tacos, which I will be back to try. My only critique, and it is good to know for next time, is that the onions are raw white onions. I thought they might be caramelized onions, but they were just raw and very powerful. Next time I would ask for the onions to be removed. But I was still very satisfied. read more

We love having Loqui in Playa Vista. The food is good and everyone knows it. Lines at dinner and on the weekends can be long. It takes time to get the food out but the wait is worth it. My favorites are the shrimp and chicken; the pork and beef tend to be dry. I love the flour tortillas. The cocktails in a can are decent. I love the outdoor seating area -- great for people watching.

This place was delicious! Garage parking available. The chicken was very flavorful, bit spicy at all like some people say. Rice is perfect texture, I think it's better than chipotles.

We picked up 2 of every taco from here for a quick dinner at the airport. We were so impressed when we were eating! I didn't expect it to be so good! The vegetarian ones especially were amazing! Also portions are great so very filling! The area is nice and we may want to sit down and eat soon. We live right up the street so I'll be back. They also packed the food really well and the vegetarian ones separate from the non-veg so I do appreciate that! read more

Been coming here quite often since I was first introduced to it (at its Culver location.) Love this place!! Fast service & solid staple for a quick but satiating food fix.

Went in with my running group and had the beef bowl with my second protein option being mushrooms. Their cucumber water is delicious not being too sweet and refreshing. Their cucumber bowl itself was amazing, I would definitely choose this over chipotle any day because you can taste the quality and the flour tortillas are amazing. Making tacos with the beef, shrooms, rice, beans, guac, and pickled onion with a little bit of their spiciest sauce was banging. Also ordered some guac and chips on the side and they DO NOT skimp on the portioning. Very generous scoop of guac with corona cheese on top. The chips were good and not overcooked or oily. The team working there were very pleasant and eager to assist in setting up our orders while also providing suggestions on what to order. With about 13 runners we all received our food in a timely fashion. Definitely will be returning. read more

the tacos are great, kind of small so you need to order a lot. I had 2 but i think i should have gotten 3. I had chicken and shrimp on flour tortillas. The lemonade was ok, kind of like country time. Probably would not come back as there are lots of restaurants around the area now! Food was fresh and tasty but for the price I was hoping for more. read more

Everything we tried here was very tasty and delicious. We tried all the tacos and they were all good. Located next to the movie theater. Communal tables indoors and outdoors available. You order, they prepare food and you go pick it up. Communal water available adjacent to the cashier. Metal cups provided. Watch out when you turn it on, the spout blasts water out forcefully, so you might get wet. The tortillas were so scrumptious. They sell them in packages to take home if you're interested. They also have a freezer with popsicles/palettas, they are not super great though. They're icy instead of creamy. They also have michelada, wine, cocktails, Mexican beer. read more

Ordered a mushroom bowl that came with guacamole and chips. Needed more chips and the server wanted to actually charge for extra tortilla chips. He proudly said "we charge" for chips!" Really, you order a meal and won't give you some extra chip that with your meal that literally costs a few pennies? News Alert: Sol Cocina in Playa Vista gives unlimited chips, salsa, and bean dip. Homestate in Playa Vista gladly gives extra chips and so does Tocaya. They are way better options than Loqui! By the way, this is a fast food place.

I have been back 3 times since I first tried this place. I am not a vegetarian, but the mushroom taco is fire!!! It will keep me coming back. I also like the beef birria and the shrimp.

This is a great fast casual place to grab a quick and yummy lunch. read more

Fresh fast casual Mexican food inside the outdoor mall. Bowls come with chips or tortillas, and we loved the guac. Chicken and mushrooms were both delicious and would get again and again!

LOQUI - Mushroom & Guacamole Plate (Vegan with no cheese) - Mexican Near Me - Playa Vista, California

I couldn't help myself from comparing this to Chipotle. I used to love Chipotle and now their quality has gone so down I never go there. When I found out about this place, I had to try and I'm glad I did. Their menu is very simple, bowl is also very simple with few ingredients, but their quality is on point. Chicken bowl was amazing, it was one of the best chicken I've had in any Bowls out there. I wish they had some greens and more sauce options. Bowl seemed pretty dry even with salsa. Btw their salsa cups are so small, 2 of them was not enough for me. If they add some greens to their menu I might be going more. Otherwise bowl consists a big amount of rice and without enough salsa or sauce options it's pretty dry. Nonetheless, it tastes amazing and deserves a try. read more

This is a fun on trend fast-casual eatery. Not a wide choice of what to eat, but that's all right because they do pretty well with what they cook. You get tacos and you'll like them just fine. It's easy to park in the structure next to Whole Foods and frequently you can find parking for free on the city streets nearby. Playa Vista is such a fun place to go and hang out. I recommend coming on a Saturday when they have the farmers market. At Loqui they quickly take your order and you get a receipt with your number. When I was there there were only a handful of customers so they brought the food to our table. I thought the mushroom tacos were OK but the mushrooms were a little bit flavorless. My friend had the chicken tacos and said they were seasoned perfectly so maybe that's a better way to go. Mushroom taco plate had all the ingredients on it to build your own tacos, and then two tortillas on the side. It was basically the same as getting two tacos à la carte. except you also get rice. Next time I would just get the tacos. The price was reasonable and would've been even cheaper if we had not bought over priced fizzy water. Was glad that they had the soda in glass bottles. All the food is served on disposable paper plates and brought out on a tray. Hopefully they are recycling because it was a lot of waste at the end of the meal. Bathrooms are all the way at the other end of the hall. They are shared with the other establishments in this micro strip mall. TL/dr: pretty decent tacos all in all if you need to eat. read more

LOQUI - Mushroom taco platter - Mexican Near Me - Playa Vista, California

SO GOOD!!! It shares an indoor space with a few other vendors, so the storefront isn't super visible from the street. There is outdoor seating though! The chicken tacos with flour tortilla is so good, and right now there is an UberEats offer for BOGO. Guacamole is also very good - it actually has flavor unlike some other guac at nearby restaurants. If you get dine-in and get the margarita, they will put it in a glass with salt or tajin rim even though it comes in a can! I like the POG one. I was not impressed by the chicken bowl though - the meat felt really dry and the other ingredients also tasted flavorless. FYI they don't have breakfast tacos anymore. Sad! read more
