Eduardo's Lokos Tacos

The best MEXICAN restaurant in Lake County!!Daily food and drink specials! NUMERO UNO!

My girlfriend and I went to Eduardo's Lokos Tacos for the first time tonight. Isabell seated us promptly and took our drink orders right away. That's when things went very wrong. Eventually she came back for our order. We placed our order and asked for queso as a starter. The queso, btw, was very good. We weren't crazy about the salsa. It was very bland.After sitting there for an hour, we flagged down Isabel and asked about our food. She ran to the kitchen and came back in a few minutes. She said it would be about ten minutes. There was a large party ahead of us. So here's the problem. I don't recall seeing them when we walked in. It's possible they were there before us, but if so, there must have only been one person cooking in the kitchen. I suspect she forgot to put our order in.In the meantime, we had to flag down Isabel again after 15 minutes from the last time we saw her and still no food. At that point I was done. I asked her to bring us a check for what we owed. We paid and left. And by the way, the "large" party was six people. Hardly a large party. And the restaurant was no where near full.

The service was pretty good; they were just very short staffed so it took over an hour to get our food. It is a super cute restaurant; I loved the decor here! The drink was a mango margarita with tajin rim and was delicious! I was bummed they were out of chile rellenos as was as my second choice, carnitas. We ended up ordering the pastor kekas and the pastor chimichanga. The chimichanga was great; I just didn't love the pastor, but it was still yummy! The kekas were a great crunch, but a bit dry and needed some sauce for sure. Overall, it was a satisfying lunch apart from the wait time, but we didn't go at the best time.

The look of this place is so fun and kitschy! You can smell the kitsch. It kinda adds to the experience. Server was great. But... we were there for about 2 hours... Just about filled up on chips and salsa. It's an interesting salsa! i think it had lots of black pepper? Chips were brittle and kinda greasy. My gf enjoyed her drink I just had a water. Food was okay. They were out of carnitas so we had the other pork option. Not great. It's a fun place if you're in the area to get drinks and maybe enjoy a appetizer. But besides that i wouldn't recommend it on the flavor.

Came here for dinner with friends on Saturday evening. We had 6 adults and a baby. No wait, the restaurant was empty except for a few tables. Once our party arrived we ordered drinks, which took some time considering everyone else in the restaurant had been there some time and had drinks already. I ordered queso and my friend ordered the table-side guac for appetizers. Both were delicious, but our server didn't bring any plates for the guacamole, and having a large table sharing we needed somewhere to put the guac and queso. When I asked for plates, he brought out 2.... So I shared one with my friend. I would have asked for more but he disappeared after dropping off the 2. Our food came out after some time and in waves. My order was incorrect but I was hungry and didn't want to wait for it to be fixed or have everyone feel like they couldn't eat because I didn't have my meal. The server did ask if I wanted it fixed (when he brought it out he told me they made the wrong thing) so kudos for the awareness, and not his fault for the kitchen's mistake. The food was pretty good. Not the best tacos ever, but enjoyable for sure. My friend said she loved the rice! The Margaritas were definitely hitting correctly so kudos to the bartender too. I had to flag down our server to get my friend's daughter a refill. Although her glass was empty when the food was brought out. Little thing, but as a former server myself I notice that kinda stuff. All in all the meal was good. We had a lovely catch up, and some tasty bites. We did agree that it would have been a nightmare had the restaurant been busy. Our food took over 30 mins to come out and the place was basically empty.I didn't use the restroom but some of our party did and warned it wasn't great...but I can't fairly speak to it as I didn't go in my self.I want to give them another try and see what that experience is like. I'll be sure to keep you updated!

I forgot to take a picture of my soup and the tacos my boyfriend had but they were both delicious and generously portioned. The agua Fresca was DELICIOUS. The service was great and it was a really cute restaurant with some instagrammy spots on it.

Good every time. I admit it does not look like much, but if you want local (not a chain) and enjoy well made dishes with flavor this is a really good choice. I also will note that I thought they had fair pricing, not overly expensive as so many places seem to be now. Recommended.

Decided to take my wife to a different Mexican food restaurant instead of our usuals. I spent some time going through Yelp for ideas. Eduardo's Lokos Tacos popped up and after looking at the pics and the menu, decided that's where we should eat. We waited until she was done with work to head that way...and we were starving! We had eaten there before, but it's been so long that neither of us could really remember if we liked it or not. Upon arrival, everything was fine. Server was nice, the margaritas were decent and the salsa was ok (after we spruced it up with salt and some lime). My wife ordered her meal and I ordered mine, which was the Taco Tuesday tacos AND a taco meal, so I could have leftovers the next day. First issue was my first tacos. I ordered the authentic tacos with soft corn tortillas. When my tacos arrived, they were flour tortillas. Not really an issue and took my first bite...not bad. While having our usual good conversations (pretty good for being married for almost 26 years!), all of the sudden, my wife's eyes get HUGE and makes an audible gasp. It's not really a usual reaction for her, so of course I follow her eyes to what was causing the reaction. Next to me, not one foot away was a two inch cockroach walking up the dividing wall between the two booths. I don't know about you, but I don't want to share my eating space with a huge cockroach. We let the server know and she immediately moved us and said she was getting her manager. We moved to a table across the booth we were sitting at. We watched for several minutes as the cockroach was mounted on the wall, determining what food he could eat that we had left. Busboy came by to look at it, nothing. Maybe a few minutes later, the manager picked up the cockroach with a paper towel, wiped the wall where the roach was (never mind the entire path that roach took and I suppose the manager was satisfied with his cleaning. At this point, neither my wife or me wanted to eat anymore. I don't think we could have if we wanted. We were both feeling somewhat uneased and didn't even want to touch our food (she had maybe one spoonful of shrimp cocktail and I had about half a taco). We just wanted out of there. At some point the server stopped and asked if we wanted anything else or a box to pack the food. That's a no for me, dawg. Now this is where the story gets a little strange, never mind having to share a booth with the big bug from Men in Black (never thought I'd want Will Smith to arrive with his neuralizer) Another few minutes pass and the manager arrives to check if we wanted anything else. We explained we just lost our appetite and didn't want to eat. **He proceeded to tell us that there was nothing he could do to get rid of cockroaches and that we should be happy it was a big one, and not a small one. He explained that "it's just Florida" to have palmetto cockroaches in the restaurant. He let us know they come in when it's hot and humid. Never mind it was 69 degrees and not a shred of humidity in the air. HE TOLD US ITS NORMAL FOR COCKROACHES TO BE IN THE RESTAURANT AND WE SHOULD BE HAPPY IT WAS A BIG ROACH AND NOT A SMALL ONE!!!Needless to say we were a bit speechless. He did say he wasn't going to charge for the meal, so that's good. There was a couple across from us who heard the conversation and they were mortified because they had just eaten and were paying. They were pretty grossed out and I heard one talking about calling the health department. Not a bad idea. Wife and I left determined to never step foot in that restaurant again. "Keep Eduardo's Lokos Tacos out of your damn mouth"! --. Will Smith, probably.

Food is really good, portion sizes are great as well. Most of the dishes are definitely able to be split, especially the grande chimichanga. Service is also good!

1st time there. Two comments. First, they got my takeout order wrong. I received chicken enchiladas instead of the beef I clearly ordered. Second, the price exceeded the prices quoted on the menu on Yelp. Hopefully these issues will be corrected. On a positive note, my order was ready when I arrived and the staff were very friendly.
