We were running errands in Lompoc recently and I was craving some Mexican food. I drive by Tori Loco often and was excited to give this place a try! They have a fair amount of seating inside and we were easily able to get a table on a weekend at lunch. You order at the counter but food is brought to your table. Chips and salsa are an extra cost, which is annoying, but we still ordered them. They have a salsa bar with different options to choose. The regular burrito was so good! I really liked the grilled chicken. Super flavorful. The staff working were really accommodating and parking is a breeze. I'll definitely be back! read more

I have been coming here for over 20 years. It's more of like a fast food Mexican place, but I really enjoy the food and would recommend trying it out. I really like their fish tacos the white sauce is amazing and always ask for extra! I know they have changed owners a few times, but for the most part the food has stayed the same. Although the Chile rellenos were plain, this time they had a sauce over it. Which I thought was a nice touch and I really liked. They have a variety on the menu and even serve breakfast! read more

Cute patio,Great food and price but menu needs updating. I ordered a #17 COMBO- (combos come with rice and beans... apparently this one DID NOT. After I got it they said NOPE it doesn't. Super weird, the menu states it does. I understand that prices are rising but we should still know what is included in our order. read more

Toro Loco - Cheese enchilada, Shredded beef taco, and a small bite size bean burrito (that was also supposed to have shredded beef in it but did NOT). - Mexican Near Me - Lompoc, California

I ordered a grilled fish taco. the last one was delicious. this time they gave me a deep fried glob of batter without any fish at all. On top was a couple of teaspoons of slaw. with cost of food I won't be back. Just because my order was to go doesn't mean you can get by with this switch and bait service. This kind of unprofessional behavior will put you out of business fast. also my husbands carnitas burrito was mostly grizzle. GROSS. They just lost three long time customers. Fire the cook. read more

Great breakfast burritos! Lots of food and tastes delicious. It's our go to place for breakfast.

Award winning salsa!! Also great burritos! Fast service. Order in or order to go. Also on door dash.

Taco Loco is a counter service restaurant serving from-scratch, Mexican food. I am not sure if they are related to the previous Taco Loco #2/3 located here a couple years earlier, but this is a second restaurant to place the on W. central (Lompoc). This recently-opened location features a clean and remodeled dining room. They even have fresh tortilla chips complimented by a small salsa bar. The quick service won't keep you waiting very long, even during the mid-day lunch time. On both visits, I ordered the (lucky) #13 consisting of a beef burrito, rice/beans, and a fried taco which was hot, fresh, and authentically oily. If you're feeling indulgent, try the Xango (banana cheesecake filled pastry) desert; you will thank me later:) I recommend this place for lunch/dinner if your in the craving local Mexican food in a clean, divey atmosphere. read more

Great tacos! Great nachos!! I love Mexican food. I could literally eat it every day. I could eat this restaurant every week. Keep on doing a great job guys! The cooks are great! The cashiers are very nice and very clean Resturant. read more

My family and I placed a to go order and picked up our food immediately. I had the Nacho and my parents ordered a carnitas burrito and a chimichanga. The nachos were disgusting and the cheese and sour cream were burnt. Both of my parents got food poisoning from their food. Stay away from these place. The only positive thing was the cashier. She was nice. read more

This is one of the better places to get your grub on if you are craving Mexican food. There isn't any special decor or ambiance but the food and service make up for it. It's pretty small inside so bringing a group might not be ideal but prices are fair and the food is pretty good. The menu is not very extensive which makes ordering easy. I'm sure all the available menu options are consistently great. I went with a small group of friends lately and there were no complaints. In comparison, by dinning here, you will probably spend 8 to 10 dollars instead of 20 dollars for the same quality you might get elsewhere. Don't be intimidated by the looks of the place, try it! read more

Toro Loco - Wet burrito - Mexican Near Me - Lompoc, California

I love these local Mexican/Tex mex food spots in Lompoc. I pass Taco Loco everyday on my way to work. The crew I'm traveling with have taken a liking to another restaurant around the corner. So today I decided to walk across the parking lot and hop the fence and walk over to taco loco. This restaurant is located in a strip mall. When you walk in there is a counter straight ahead and seating on both sides for about 16 people. One of the first things that I noticed when I walked in was there small self serve salsa bar. I walked to the counter and ordered their 2 beef enchilada combo with rice and beans. I got a bowl for some salsa and chips and took my seat. I got some of their mild salsa. There was a trough of salsa with a scoop in it. I was spooning it out like my life depended on it. Now the label on the salsa said that is was mild. Personally, I thought it had a skittle kick to it. Not so much kick that I didn't crush it! My enchiladas were on point and the meal it it's entirety was delicious. My meal was resonantly priced at $8.99. With that salsa bar and chips you could have charged me $13 and I would have been good. Not a bad spot to try is you are looking for a good Mexican restaurant. I will be back the next time I'm in Lompoc, CA. read more

I search out good Mexican food with the dedication that is unrivaled. I found this little hole in the wall in Lompoc and simply can't eat there enough. The food is exceptional. The place is clean and service is friendly. The prices are very reasonable 6 to 8 bucks for a meal. Not a whole lot of tables maybe 6 to 8 tables but they do a brisk takeout business. Traditional Mexican food done really well in a clean, friendly environment for a great price-perfect! read more

Easy,and fast! Great food! Go for breakfast if you want something quick! Also nice salsa bar!!!

I just HATE giving ANYBODY a bad review, especially a Mom & Pop place, but I have no choice but to relate my experience here. The food is fine, the portions good, the price is right. The service is dreadful. My friend and I were treated horribly there. My family used to be very regular customers, my brothers eat a LOT, we often got a lot of food to go, etc. In other words we spent a lot of money there, were quiet, polite and always left an immaculate table and area when we left. We have been putting up with dirty looks from the cook almost every time we went in there, and have no idea why. He just glares at us over that window to the kitchen every time we go in there. Finally had a blowup with him coming out of the kitchen and screaming at us because we asked for a serving of chips. One serving. There were no chips available, and they have great chips there, so good that I have bought bags of them to take home, and would have happily paid twice the price. He said we sat in there "too long", and that when we come, we take "chips and chips" because we take those tiny little paper boats back to refill sometimes four times between our entire family. Evidently, (though there is no rule or sign saying so) he feels that we should have no more than two tiny little paper boats of chips (amounting to perhaps 10 chips, tops) between three or four people, and it just went downhill from there. I offered to buy a bag of them if that was a problem and he kept screaming at me and shouting over me, finishing with "NOW you got it??" We are people in our 60's. We're quiet locals who enjoy dining out. We just looked at each other in shock as this man kept shouting at us (in front of other customers who were so uncomfortable that two of them got up and left in the middle of his tirade), then he tried to switch to Spanish to insult us to his employee (which I understood enough of to understand what was being said and it wasn't pretty), then returned to shouting at us some more because we "stay too long and take chips and chips". It's no skin off my nose, there are many restaurants here and in the surrounding areas and at least three much better Mexican restaurants which are run by people who weren't raised by Bigfoot. We are good customers, polite, quiet, regular and clean. No screaming kids throwing food and running around, no mess at the table, no use of profanity...none of that. And because we linger over our meal and take 3 or 4 tiny little paper boats of cold, icky chips form the self-serve tray to serve three or four of us, we got treated like trash. Will this post change how this man treats people? I doubt it, he's no kid and he clearly has probably been an abusive bully all his life, judging by his proficiency, his short fuse, and the way the women and young people in that place creep around trying to fly under the radar. Again, it's nothing off my nose; we'll just go to one of the many nice, friendly neighborhood places in town and enjoy the food and service there, and take this place off our list of places to eat. We like to patronize Mom & Pop businesses in general just to keep our economy healthy and will absolutely continue to do so. I have just been recommended to try Angela's, so we'll check that out next week some time. This won't be one of them. read more

This is fast food Mexican food. Pretty consistent with the taste. The shredded beef will taste the same in whatever item you put it in. The spicy salsa is one of the best spicy salsas I've had. I did notice it doesn't taste the same. Hopefully it's just temporary at this location. I just wish they would make fresh guacamole for your order. Small batches at a time would help!! read more

Toro Loco - Shredded beef flour taquitos. Soft with good flavor - Mexican Near Me - Lompoc, California

Out of all the places to get Mexican food in Lompoc, this has always been one of our favorite places to dine at. Fast and friendly service and the food is always cooked fresh. A few of our favorite things to order are the grilled chicken tacos and taquitos. We've also had Taco Loco cater a few of our events and they do an excellent job. The owners always go the distance to ensure everything is perfect. read more

Everything you would expect good cripy tacos and quesadillas priced well good salsa bar.

went here for lunch with a coworker. she got 2 carnita tacos, she said they were very good. I on the other hand ordered the nachos. this was a mistake. they were soggy and were covered in nacho cheese that looked like they borrowed from the 711 across the street. I was disappointed because I was expecting Mexican nachos, not a sad attempt at taco bell nachos. however, the service was very friendly and helpful. this is why they received two stars read more

This is a real Mexican place with tasty food, the sauce with the enchiladas was really good, and there are these little things like orange slices added to the plates that make a difference. I don't like the liquid cheese they put on nachos, neither does my son. They serve in reusable plastic plates but use throwaway forks and knives and styrofoam glasses, that's a bit sad. Food tastes so much better with no plastic! read more

Thanks for the great lunch as we passed through Lompoc. read more

By far the best breakfast burritos in town. Portion sizes are large on the breakfast menu. They will even make breakfast burritos after 11 am for a small fee. Salsa bar is excellent. Staff is very friendly as well. read more

I don't care what time of day it is, you shouldn't make that an excuse to charge extra for breakfast. Worst breakfast burrito ever anyways. Just meat and egg. There wasn't even any cheese in this burrito or potatoes or salsa of any kind. The eggs were over cooked and the bacon had pieces that were not even cooked all the way. Probably won't be back read more

This is a taqueria with a good cheery atmosphere and not so great food. Cheap cuts of meat poorly seasoned cooked at the wrong temperature for the wrong length of time. Tortillas aren't fresh and come out of a plastic bag. All tomatoes came from a can or weren't ripe. Rice and beans were meh between a two and a three. The fresh jalapeños were good. read more
