El Taco Loco is a Mexican restaurant in Bakersfield that offers a large variety of menu items, including their popular carne asada tacos and egg burrito. Many customers praise the super fresh ingredients and really good carne asada tacos, with some mentioning their love for asada tacos and amazing salsa. The restaurant used to have a truck, but now mainly operates from its brick store, which features a tidy and welcoming space inside, much better than the older outside building. The parking lot is trailer friendly right off the freeway, making it easy to get in and out.
Some reviews mention that the food is top quality and delicious, with the atmosphere being friendly and service outstanding. The place is seen as a good alternative to fancy restaurants, offering great food without high prices. However, others note that the prices can be high for the portion sizes, such as $35 for two tortas, and the drive-through service can sometimes lack communication and attitude. The salsa is tart and not very tomatoey, and the pastor is considered mediocre. Despite this, many find the quality good overall. The bathrooms are clean, and the food area is kept exceptionally tidy, making El Taco Loco a popular spot for authentic Mexican dishes.
