Loveeeee la papa loca best potato’s in town!! My favorite is the asada fries it just hits the spot every time!! Super generous with the amount of protein they put in the order the baked potatoes are huge! Definitely worth getting them. The cucumber/pepino agua Fresca is a must try! They got great customer service and the workers are always super nice!

Don’t get me wrong papa loca is good but the Mexican worker took my order wrong. I ordered 2 cali burritos with no pico de gallo, and no guacamole, no chipotle sauce, and turns out that my 2 burritos had pico de gallo!! Yuckk!! The second time I went the same guy didn’t seem to understand correctly but he definitely didn’t take my order right. I got a papa loca with no green onions and no jalapenos, my papa loca had all of the veggies which I said no to everything!! he needs to be paying more attention!!!

First time experience was very salty and the shrimp was not it. I went the second time to see if something would change and ordered the all meat loaded potato and I regret going. When eating it had more butter than anything. When eating a baked potato you should be able to enjoy the quality of it and not eat pure butter. An advice I would give for your customers is melt your cheese, less butter or even no butter & improve on seasoning. I hope this feedback will help improve so that your customers are satisfied for what they pay for.
