The chips tasted stale but the salsa was chefs kiss—loved it! Queso birria tacos were excellent, I’ve never had them with ground beef but they were flavored beautifully. The gumbo was the beginning of my experience changing. It took my by surprise to see these tiny morsels of meat but I was truly taken aback when I took a bit into the unseasoned chicken and shrimp, I’m not sure if 3 shrimp is the standard but that’s what I got. I mentioned this to our server and she said well I know the steak is seasoned because I eat that all the time, I can have them make you some more chicken but it’s gonna be a while—we only have 1 cook for the entire restaurant. I empathize as a human but as a patron, you having one cook is not my business—I’m paying for a service and good food. Her response was not what I was expecting but I waited…she brought me back a few strips of chicken this time.
I was surprised there was only one type of hot sauce in the restaurant when I asked for Cholula but not a deal breaker. So then my partner ordered a mangorita and the waitress brought back this large very orange drink—we looked and just decided to keep it and try to enjoy it but it was truly too orange flavored so we left over half a glass. He then ordered to Don Julio shots and she asked if he wanted salt on the rims, he said yes and then looked at me to make sure and I said sure. There were no water refills and I found out during us taking the shot my rim had sugar, his had salt —that was awful. I mentioned it to the server and she said, I thought you said sugar? I was perplexed how she thought that when I wasn’t even the one who placed the order. At this point we were both over it and left.
The menu offered a delightful array of Mexican dishes, and I couldn’t resist starting with their homemade guacamole and salsa, which were bursting with fresh flavors. For my main course, I ordered the Quesobarria Tacos, and it was a true masterpiece. The combination of spices and ingredients created a symphony of flavors that danced on my taste buds.
What truly impressed me was the attentive and friendly staff. They provided excellent recommendations and ensured that my dining experience was top-notch. The margaritas were also exceptional and perfectly complemented the meal.
I can’t wait to return to Loco Lupes to explore more of their menu. If you’re looking for authentic Mexican cuisine served with a warm atmosphere and outstanding service, I highly recommend giving this restaurant a try. It’s a true gem in the world of Mexican dining.
There are much better options for Mexican food in Tuscaloosa and Tex-mex if that is your thing. I’d give it a try if you are curious but do not expect to fall in love with the food.
By living on the west coast, I have different expectation of mexican food. The chimichunga is not what I expected. It fits in the palm of my hands, I must say I was not expecting it to be so small for 13 bucks. Was not a good experience and the food is OK. Definitely won’t be getting Mexican food in Alabama anymore. 57 dollars and barley got anything. Socal is much different for a cheaper price. DONT GET THE CHIMICHUNGAS, you’ll be very disappointed
Oh and half of the soft shell taco shells were stale.
Manager once aware was super sweet and helpful
First off, I had the pleasure of being served by Trent, the bartender. Not only was he a friendly face, but he was also a local who had a wealth of knowledge about the city. He shared some fascinating historic anecdotes while mixing up the perfect margarita for me. Trent’s recommendations truly added to the enjoyment of my visit to Tuscaloosa.
The owner of Loco Lupe’s deserves a special shoutout. I was thoroughly impressed by his dedication and hard work. He was everywhere, from crafting drinks to running food orders and ensuring his team was performing at their best. It’s clear that he takes pride in his establishment, and it shows in every aspect of the dining experience.
Location-wise, Loco Lupe’s couldn’t be better situated. Nestled in a brand-new area of town, it’s conveniently close to some of the nicest hotels and boasts a beautiful waterfront view. It’s the perfect spot to enjoy a meal or drinks while taking in the surroundings.
Speaking of drinks, the margarita I had was nothing short of excellent, and the shot of liquor I ordered was well priced. The menu offered a delicious variety of options, and I indulged in a quesadilla and enchilada. The salsa was incredibly tasty, and the green sauce added that extra zing to my meal.
In conclusion, Loco Lupe’s is a hidden gem in Tuscaloosa that I wholeheartedly recommend. Whether you’re a local or just passing through, this restaurant is a must-visit. The combination of friendly staff, fantastic drinks, delicious food, and a great location makes it a top-notch choice for any occasion. Don’t miss out on the chance to experience the magic of Loco Lupe’s for yourself!
