San Loco - Best Post Booze Food or Ruckus in the Making

For those of you lingering outside your nightlife destination of choice contemplating why you are so hungry and how you are going to satisfy that need, San Loco a Mexican chain in the EV/LES is a trip worth your time. Uncertainty is one way you could describe the experiences inside San Loco late at night. At San Loco you never know what to expect. Whether it be a table turning fight amongst patrons or the all too familiar battle for margaritas (San Loco has embattled many liquor license issues) one thing is for sure, expect the unexpected.

One thing you CAN expect time after time at this favorite of ours is the Guaco Loco (trademarked by San Loco). Its comprised of a flour tortilla smeared with guacamole and wrapped around a hard taco shell, and stuffed with you choice of meat; chicken, beef, pork, or catfish including freshly shredded lettuce and one lonely hunk of tomato. For you vegetarians (weirdos) out there they have a rice or beans version.

Remember when satisfying your late night hunger at San Loco keep your head on a swivel and watch out for that flying hot sauce.

You can visit San Loco at:
151 Ave A (between 9th & 10th St)
124 Second Ave (between 7th & St. Marks Place)
111 Stanton St (between Essex & Ludlow)
160 N. 4th St, Brooklyn (between Bedford & Driggs)

San Loco is my favorite restaurant in NYC and this is what i have to say about it:
1. the best value in this restaurant are their nachos, for $3 this is by far the most filling thing on the menu
2. Viva el guaco loco, obviously.
3. Once when i was really wasted I stole a rice crispy treat from the counter, and for that I am truly sorry.
