It is on the cheaper side… which is nice. However, the food is definitely MEH. The salsa sucked. It tastes like canned tomatoes dumped in a bowl. They really need to work on it. The chips were good — thin and crispy. We ordered chicken fajitas and seafood enchiladas. It was a lot of food, but not that great. For example, the refried beans looked good, but had some kind of weird spice in them that was totally not necessary. Just weird. You could tell with the service that they were trying, but missed the mark on a few things. The bartender was our server, and she was very nice and took our orders quickly. But the people that brought our food out brought the fajitas right away, then after 5−10ish min, still no enchiladas. They finally brought them… still, service needs some work. After that weirdness, we asked for more sour cream and were charged $.99 for a thimble-sized serving. Seriously? We are moving right nearby, but probably won’t be back.

Decided to try this place for some carry-out one night this week. The parking lot is always overflowing, so I figured it must be outstanding. My wife & I were fairly disappointed in what we had, however. My wife ordered an enchilada & taquito combo. There was a single enchilada(as expected) and a single taquito(not expected). That was OK, however, as she took one bite of each and declared them inedible. The enchilada was doughy and the chicken inside watery. The taquito was just simply tasteless. I had the chicken enchiladas with sour cream sauce. The outside of mine was not as doughy, but the inside was very similar to my wife’s meal. The rice was fairly tasteless as well, but the refried beans were OK. My daughter’s grilled cheese sandwich was very good she said and the guacamole appetizer we had was very good as well. So, I guess if you are looking for a good appetizer with a hungry kid that likes grilled cheese, this place will work. I will be unlikely, however, to go back.

Finally — someplace decent and affordable! I love dining out but it’s hard to find places with the right atmosphere, people, food/drinks and prices. We just tried this place and thought for $ 9 that 3 enchillada’s with rice and beans was a great deal. Food was good. Beans were a little bland but added salt and they were good. We tried the sangria, which you could actually taste some alcohol in(unlike a lot of other places where you wonder if they gave you the virgin sangria)! Atmosphere is laid back and party-ish. Service was average. Food was good — especially for the price.

I was surprised to see that Tom’s Oyster Bar was missing next to PaPa Joe’s and that is was replaced by a new Mexican restaurant. I used to live in DT Rochester before moving to Troy and I feel behind the times. The service I received initially was quick and efficient. In addition, the staff had good suggestions on both their food and specialty cocktails. The mojito I had was tasty; the restaurant serves tequila flights and had good happy hour deals($ 3.5 wells & $ 2 domestics). In addition, I was surprised to see sangrita on the menu with the tequila, which I found impressive. I was excited to see some different menu options including grilled cactus on their salads and a tasty cilantro dressing. Their salsa was homemade and had fresh herbs, which gave it a nice taste. In addition, I thought their guacamole was better than most, however I like a flavorful guacamole and too many restaurant’s are too bland. The décor of Locos made me laugh, mostly because I had been in there during the buildings former life as Tom’s. It looks just like Tom’s, but with random Mexican stuff thrown on the walls. Overall, the food was good, if not entirely authentic. I am biased, I know. «Upscale» Mexican just doesn’t make a whole lot of sense to me having been to restaurants in Mexico. However, the pricing was on the cheaper side for Rochester fare, which makes it a good choice for weekday dining.
