TODAY IN SADNESS: Taqueria Burrito Loco

EMPTY STOREFRONT >>>

It's a damn shame when yet another great local restaurant closes down. Taqueria Burrito Loco is no longer open for business at their Tacoma location in a strip mall hidden behind a gas station on the corner of 56th and Orchard. In my opinion, the restaurant's food didn't warrant the closure. Not even close. Sure, their tacos made it to the Final Four in last year's Tournament of Tacos. But it was Taqueria Burrito Loco's breakfast burrito that made my mornings. Stuffed with Mexican sausage, eggs, rice, whole beans, onion, tomatoes, cilantro and ample sour cream, it was bigger than my head.

Whatever the reason for their closure, it makes me sad. Adios Loco.
