El Taco Loco will close out the month of February (Taco Month).
Located on Main Street in Brighton, El Taco Loco was truly a good find. We arrived on a Saturday about 1:15 PM....and the parking lot was full....always a good sign. Luckily we did not have to wait for a table, and we were seated in the back room. Since we were there for tacos, searching the menu was quite easy, That being said, they have a really large menu of terrific sounding Mexican dishes along with a really large selection of seafood prepared in traditional Mexican fashion.
Listed under the "House Specialties" were our tacos. They offer tongue, pork, spiced beef, chicken and shredded beef. The normal order comes with 4 tacos, but you can order 3 tacos and also get rice and beans....so this was out order.

As you can see from the picture, the tacos come on warm soft corn tortillas along with rice and beans. You also get lettuce, tomatoes, onions and two large lime slices to add some citrus flavor.
The beef was seasoned to a juicy deliciousness with just the right amount of heat. You also get a squeeze bottle with their Verde (green) sauce to kick the tacos up another notch.
While we were eating, I was noticing the rest of the folks in the restaurant. El Taco Loco seems like a place where all of the locals come to eat....this is another good sign. We saw entire families, including grandma and grandpa there for a good meal. When other folks were coming in, they seemed to know a lot of other folks in the place.....which was fun to watch....like old home week......but truly, it is probably every week for these regulars.
If you ever find yourself up in the Brighton area, or just want to take a drive and eat some authentic Mexican food....give El Taco Loco a try......they will not disappoint.
