Comments of Loquita

M. L.

Came here for a catch up with a friend, amazing atmosphere, the vibe the architecture love it! John was also amazing! Made us feel welcome from the moment we came in and the secret taco recommendation soo good! Thanks John! Will definitely be coming back.

Delicious tacos, chips, salsa and gauc. Food is pricey but very tasty. The margaritas start at $16 for frozen and $19 for shaken, which seemed steep but was actually decent value on reflection of how strong they were!

S. T.

Love the margs here! Service is fantastic, Terry served me and was really impressive! Will definitely be back for Friday night drinks every week.

P. C.

Place: nothing Mexican taqueria about it, is just a bar (formerly honky tonks) Music: too loud Rap music, basically just to seat, eat and leave, not able to have a conversation Drinks: Miniature Margaritas for the price, tasty but expensive for that amount, Draft Beers charged as schooner price for midi size, I asked for Mezcal Reposado and did not have it neither Negra Modelo Beer (really?) Food: Flour Tortillas with tasty fillings, tried the Birria, Pastor (good attempt) and Fish no complaints there, Guacamole: Pricey your rather smashed your own avo and chop your own tomatoes, onions and get your own chips you may save at least 10 dollars and have a good chat at your own place. The place must be re-named Loquita Bar, with tacos for snacks, there is not such thing as Tequila/Mezcal since the menu offers a few cocktails and offer is limited. place is not inviting and ordinary and with the drinks is evident someone is skimming off the top in both cocktails and draft beers. by the way if it happen that you go and have tacos, look how many people approach the bar with their hands covered in taco sauce asking for a napkin (no napkins when you serve food that is to be eaten with your hands!) two margaritas and box of corn chips $50

K. L.

Great night! Fabulous service! Highly recommended! So many different variations of the Margarita!

K. H.

Finally a place in Canberra that does Mexican well. And it's the only place to go on the mandatory Taco Tuesday! My work colleague and I had a great time at Loquita - the service was friendly, the atmosphere was great and the cocktails were fantastic! Johnathan the barman makes the best El Coco and we enjoyed his banter. Highly recommended!

G. L.

Brett was awesome! Amazing tacos, especially the fish and pork. Loved the margaritas!

M. R.

10/10 would recommend. Best place for drinks - obsessed with the cocktails. Lovely outside spot. Top notch music vibes. Cauliflower tacos were to die for - as was Brett 🍸

K. A.

Was a wonderful time! My partner and I went in to check it out as we were trying to pick a restaurant to go to for his upcoming birthday. We bought a drink each, loved the variety and creativity with the drinks. We ordered a plate of chips and guacamole with salsa, I must say it wasn’t the most exciting guacamole but definitely delicious with some of their fun hot sauces on the tables. We also tried each of the tacos, all delicious and they had some more mild and spicier ones which is great for everyone’s preferences! We booked for the birthday that same day and will be coming back with friends this Friday! I’m excited to try more of their drinks and enjoy the tacos again. Definitely recommend.

A. K.

Amazing vibe, super friendly staff that will always fit you in and find you a seat. Shoutout to Terry, one of the most friendliest and happiest bartenders I've ever met. 10/10 would recommend.

A. H.

Dined here tonight, the margaritas were top notch… almost as good as our mate Terry! Whether you are looking for some great tacos… or just here for the margs… this is the place to be!

B. R.

Friendly staff who are genuinely kind and approachable. Respectful of people in the company who choose not to drink and don’t try to force anyone along who isn’t causing trouble. Great aesthetic and artistic vibe but the best thing is the music volume is perfect.

L. C.

Tacos were great and churros fresh and amazing. Brett was so friendly and checked up on us throughout our meal, organising gluten free options for my friend on request. Would recommend the classic Tommy’s margarita!

M. R.

Fantastic service, each member of staff personally made us feel welcome (especially the one with the mask). Great food, satisfied our Mexican cravings and will be returning on our next Canberra visit!

T. P.

Great place to have a few drinks and bite to eat! Really sets the mood! Brett was great and made us the best mocktail!

M. T.

Great experience and super friendly staff, especially Brett, lots of gluten friendly options with the tacos which were really nice (make sure to ask the staff). Would definitely go again!

Such a good vibe! Great food and great service. Terry, especially, was fun and served us perfect margaritas!

Came for a couple of drinks for my birthday with my fiancé and cannot fault a thing. Thank you Terry for making a cocktail nice and spicy and for managing to put Vegemite in a cocktail? Like honestly? Delicious!

P. L.

Hello, my name's Paulo and I'm a brazilian navy captain. I had too many experiences in different countries. So, I would like to say that at the Loquita bar the drinks are amazing (the margaritas are delicious) and the service is special. Mr Marcus is very polite and attentive. I recommend the place a lot.

C. C.

10/10 - Terry is super knowledgeable and helped us all choose our drinks!! They all came out perfectly and each of us enjoyed them thoroughly. Always ask for Terry!!

D. S.

Jasper: a kind and courteous gentlemen who provided an excellent 5 star service. His drinkmanship was outstanding, breathe taking margarita craft. Oh I ache, I ache, i pine to be back in the warm embrace of Loquita. Until next time Jasper. Godbless

B. A.

It's not the best. Not the worst. It all feels a little bit clumsy. The food was okay, as were the drinks, but it feels like it's trying to be a bit refined than it is. Food took ages to get to our table and the drinks were so small for the price. Nothing special, probably won't be back. Staff weren't wearing masks correctly either, like come on, there's a pandemic on.

E. H.

Really great service! Got a lovely sour made by Jasper who was super nice and friendly. Cute vibes defs recommend

M. E.

Fantastic atmosphere, good vibes, even better tacos - Thanks to Brett for looking after us and giving us a great selection of food.

B. H.

Little overpriced for what you’re getting… saw the instagram post of 10$ margs on Tuesday but they came in tiny glasses … bit disappointing maybe 5$ margs next time?. Did have the banana taco for dessert which was yum!

J. P.

Few options of food. Slow service. But really good options of drinks. The barman catch my eye. You can see that he loves what he's doing. Suggestion: needs more staff.

What Canberra has been missing! We went to Loquita on Saturday night. There was a group of four of us and we were there at peak time for food and drinks. I don't usually drink tequila but I had heard about the El Coco and wow! I ended up having several. Then moved on to the frozen margaritas. So delicious and I can't wait to be back there in summer sipping those in the sun! We had one pregnant friend in the group and she drank the "cactus juice" all night and said it was delicious! Food wise - there was a slight line up to order food but once you ordered the food came out quickly and to be fair it is a bar (not a restaurant) and it was their second night of operating so have to give them time to nail everything. The guac is up there with the best I have had - we ended up ordering a second serve. We also ordered two lots of the chorizo because it was so delicious. We also tried the fish, beef and pork tacos. Amazing! I've been flying to other cities to experience bars/food/drinks like this and now we don't need to. The fit out has you feeling like you've escaped Canberra for the night. Canberra was screaming out not just for decent mexican but this kind of vibe and you guys listened and delivered!

M. P.

Such good service and fantastic drinks!!!!! Love Brett too!!!

K. E.

Big props to the new manager Mark. Although the food was on the slower side he made sure we were taken care of. Thanks Mark.

A. D. V.

Better than honkeytonks! Better management and have to try the Spicy watermelon margarita!

Amazing tacos. Amazing margs. Amazing bartenders- we love Marcus 👏🎉💯

Nice food, but very small and pricey for what it is. It’s not really a restaurant as google says - it’s a bar with bar food. Not enough for dinner really.
