Me and my girlfriend were incredibly excited to try their oysters because they offered variety, but what we got was an abysmal mess. All 3 oysters were old and chewy, the shell bits were on the oyster meat, and some had yellow fluid, which is a sign of bacterial growth, and one had an ACTUAL MOSQUITO. We paid 70 dollars for oysters and drinks and it was probably the worst experience I’ve had in a Boston restaurant. The server yelled at us instead of apologizing when we were extremely polite about it. I will be contacting the health department because we ate some before noticing the quality and do not feel well. It’s probably smart to not go here lol.

In general, the food is only good when it's freshly made, including fried dishes. I have ordered food a few times when visiting, and I can tell that my chicken was fried — the outer skin was burnt. Additionally, if you are over 30, you may feel a bit left out, as their main target is young professionals — a not-so-inclusive space. Overall, you can tell that the Latino employees work extremely hard to ensure the food comes out quickly-sometimes we forget who works behind the kitchen! Also, this is not Mexican food--- it's just well-seasoned food.

This dinner felt like purgatory, not sure what I did to deserve this punishment. Music was so loud I still can’t hear and I think I have tinnitus now? Tacos were sad, bar taco is a 5 minute walk from here.

So anywhere that has interesting options for gluten free I’m all over and give 100% stars for. So this may change if it’s garbage. Lol
Anywho

We sat outside so. Pose wasn't a problem The food was really fantastic. Try the gorditos!!!
Love the food but way way too loud on Saturday night. Could not hold a conversation. Will stick to lunchtime and weekdays.
Loco Taqueria was a nice place for dinner though it wasn't perfect for our family. The food was good, but the servings were small. Service was slow and it was quite loud. I'm more likely to recommend this to a couple or a group of friends as a good place to go to get drinks after work or on the weekend.
Came here out of town with my parents and family and got asked for my id on the way in with my parents waiting out in the rain guy at the door is wrong for doing someone like that
Definitely a place for drinks but not food. Apps werr good, but the tuna poke could have use much more lime or something to brighten it up. My chicken fajitas tasted strongly of soy sauce which I’m guessing they used for the onions but didn’t really give a Mexican flavor and were way too salty. Churros we got for dessert were raw in the inside. Also beware if you order a soft drink. The DD in our group was ordering Diet Coke and got charged for every refill.
