Description: First of all let me say that there are in Cologne two Taco Loco’s. Since I only know the Taco Loco on Zülpicher place, my report is limited to this bar. The Taco Loco is right near the bus stop "Zülpicher space", which is accessed with the numbers 6, 15, 17, 19 and 8, 9. If you travel with the numbers 6, 15, 17 and 19 one must first cross the Hohenstaufenring and walk a few feet into the Zülpicher road and there you find on the right side the entrance.
I was last night with a girlfriend on the street Zülpicher, since one can find many nice bars where you can comfortably drink. Previously we had already been in a cocktail bar as we passed the Taco Loco. Since we wanted somewhere to sit outside and the outside of Taco Loco looks very nice, we went in, what was really a good decision.
From the outside you can see immediately that it is the Taco Loco is a Mexican bar, because the walls are painted in typical Mexican, for example, generated with cacti, and also the establishment is of a certain Mexican ambiance. There are plenty of tables inside, but it looked cozy. Because we wanted fresh air we went through the other side into a small square courtyard.
We were lucky, although it was already quite full, we got hold of the empty tables, a few minutes later was no longer free. Amiente in the beer garden was really very pleasant, it was quiet, sheltered from the wind and just plain cozy.
While we sat outside we saw that you can also order the Taco Loco many delicious-looking Mexican food, but because we felt no hunger we didn’t order anything. Nevertheless I will mention a few goodies that I'm determined to try again sometime. Thus there are marvelous salads from € 4.50, stuffed tacos and tortillas of around € 9, Mexican specialties, steaks 8 to 15 euros, and several hamburgers, nachos, desserts and other tasty snacks. None of the dishes was more than € 15, which I think is okay, because the portions that were served up left and right of us, were quite large.
Generally I find that the drinks are really cheap and, above all, very tasty, the dishes seem reasonably portioned and priced to be in order.
As soon as we came in we were friendly welcomed. One even informed us that tequila would cost only 1 euro. Arrived at our table we were also asked very quickly what we want. The order arrived very quickly and they were really nice to us.
The Taco Loco is a nice bar/restaurant. The prices for the drinks, especially during happy hour, are very fair, the ambiance is really nice and the service is good. In any case, I'll be happy to come back and once for dinner or brunch, and this can only recommend to anyone.
