El Loco Mexican Cafe

I was living in Albany in 1983 when El Loco first opened, and it was a favorite eatery until 1995 when I left the city. On a recent Albany visit, I was delighted to find El Loco is today every bit as delicious as I recall -- if not better. She got the Fantasticos nachos; I went with the Burrito Grande – both huge and amazingly delish with shredded beef, not hamburger meat. The blue corn bread muffin was a super tasty bonus. 5 stars all around for the food, ambiance and staff – a great trip down burrito memory lane!

The best Mexican food I have ever eaten! Great Margaritas which were authentic and strong, not a huge goblet of sweet and sour mix. The Tamales were our favourite, delicious flavour and texture and great side dishes. Big portions, amazing staff, reasonable price and great flavour!

I'm picky when it comes to Mexican. Even highly recommended spots have been hit or miss. But i really had a great experience here! Great Mezcal, the burrito grande was amazing, and the service was top notch. Highly recommend!

Amazing place with nice decor and very friendly staff. The food is good and the price is reasonable. We ordered the nachos which was huge and two of us couldn’t finish it. The tacos were good as well.
