I’m definitely a fan of this bar and grill. It’s a fun atmosphere with a good selection of beers and domestics are always cheap(especially by the pitcher). We tend to go Sundays after Softball and always have a great time. The glass front of the building opens to allow an outdoor feel and we’ll occasionally get a puppy to pet and play with. The food is very affordable, the menu is creative, and the portions are generous. The bar staff are attentive and friendly. The seating, particularly the limited number of high-tops, is the only thing I would improve. Give the place a try, but understand it’s a bar first(with a bit of a divey feel) with some imaginative menu options(try the Reuben nachos).

Great place! Music is a little loud if you’re trying to have conversation, but the food is superb! We had the Reuben loco dip(not sure on the name) for an appetizer and it was hot and delicious! Many of us had corned beef in our entrees and it was really good. Fish fry was crispy and fresh! Mac & cheese was a little bland. Bacado salad was tasty too. Would definitely come back for the food! Kelsey was super friendly and a great server!

I had the Fish Fry on Friday. You get 3 sm pieces breaded with a hard style bread crumb. It ‘s not the best as people say. The Coleslaw was horrible! It tasted like a chemical plastic bag and sour. I don’t know if it was old, It was terrible tasting. I would not recommend the fish fry. I wanted to try because it was voted the best in town. IN my opinion No! $ 12.95

Very fun place, it’s a mix between Mexican bar food & Irish bar food. The food was great, menu was reasonably priced and the craft Beer selection was decent, at least they offered some top rated craft beers the Burger was tasty that I ordered and my Fiancées corned beef sandwich was delicious, definitely a fun place to check out.

Tucked away in a strip mall the bar was packed for an Ohio state game. The Corned Beef with homemade potato chips was excellent and top quality. The french fries and fish tacos were above average frozen restaurant fair. The service was good for the patron/staff ratio. The drinks were reasonably priced.

Had a fantastic time here. Came in for a late night meal with my husband and daughter and chose the Loco Leprechaun because not much else was open. We were worried because of the mashup/fusion of Mexican and Irish didn’t originally seem appealing. We were definitely wrong. It is a quaint little bar/restaurant in a small strip mall beside a local pizza joint. There weren’t many customers there and we didn’t expect a lot since it was late at night and the middle of the week. We sat down and immediately the bartender came over with menus and the specials of the day, handwritten on a small sheet. We thought, uh oh, but were pleasantly surprised and ate our words. He came straight away with the drinks we ordered and took our dinner order. We got the mussels(deliciously buttery), wings in spicy garlic sauce(garlicky, wet, huge and filling), a couple orders of fries(hot, yummy and crispy) and a shrimp poboy(so yummy and filling, my daughter could only eat half). We received our drinks quick, got refills super fast on soda, were brought extra napkins and our silverware and extra mini plates and the condiments basket before the food came out. The food came out piping hot and so good. We got our fill with plenty to snack on later. I will definitely be coming back every time we’re on this side of town. We even had a little confusion with what the mussels are cooked with and the cook came out from the kitchen to give us reassurance and a breakdown of what it’s cooked in. I love this place and will bring all my friends out!

I had to wait in the neighborhood. I never get to north Olmsted too often, popped in. love the open air frontage. I was here at lunch. the staff and chef Joe were very friendly. I had a pizza, a little cold but tasty. my son had the rubin wrap. said it was awesome. had the rubin dip as well, hot and tasty with rye bread toasts… they have 5.00 lunch choices. the menue does need redone. I’m not sure what its like after dark, but a great lunch choice. I’m sure it gets missed being on Walter and Center ridge in the small plaza… open and light. i’ll come back.

Avoided this place for years, even though i’m frequently in the area, I was thinking Irish/Mexican? Finally I tried it as I had a coupon and was right in the neighborhood. I avoided the Irish, and avoided the Mexican, but what I did have was good. I came back again, and now am hooked on their burgers– good quality, good price. The menu does have quite a variety and reasonable prices, everything i’ve had so far has been good basic bar type food. The bartender(male) has a bit of an attitude, and his pours are hit/miss. Sometime you get a decent drink, sometimes very weak. Lately have been sticking with beers so I don’t have to gamble on his pour quality.

The portabella wrap was amazingly delicious! Yes I say portabella not portobello. I had mine with out the cheese. I just sampled the side of fries and wished I hadn’t. Crunchy and delicious is what they were! So I handed them off to my partner in crime before I ate them all. With tribe game playing it was pretty decent and better then average bar food.

A sports bar in a strip mall deep in the ‘burbs. It’s better inside than you would expect, with a nice old bar and lots of beers to drink that aren’t Miller, Miller Lite or Bud. I have been here a couple of times for food and a beer. If you go earlier in the day(lunch time to about 8 pm) the crowd tends to be older, which is fine by me, I’m older. The staff are nice and the food is decent. I was a little disappointed that the Lake Erie Perch came breaded rather than beer battered as I would expect from a joint full of beer. Fries and cole slaw were good and the home made donuts for dessert were REALLY good. Not a foodie place but if you are in the neighborhood and need to eat, it’s a good place.

Not sure what the heck happened to this place. It used to be really good about 3 – 4 years ago. Change in ownership? Management? I dont know. Our server was really good but the food? When you hear someone behind you complain that their corned beef smells funny when you just ordered… that is not good. My food was fine. My friends though ordered mozerella«moons» which were actually sticks. They came out and they were freezing cold. Like the cheese was not melted. The potato skins looked like they were about 5 days old. And how about just redoing the menu instead of crossing things off with a black marker??? Such a shame. Completely went downhill…

The first time I was here was on the weekend. Nothing but newly 21-year-olds as far as the eye could see. Ok, I get it, it’s the weekend. Maybe it will be better during the week. The second time was a Monday(today). Surprisingly, there was a full bar at 7pm. They must be doing something right. This time the crowd was much older. I ordered the white pizza & chips with dip. While it was not terrible, this was not«pizza». It was a round, thin flatbread with a thick layer of white cheese. No oil, sauce or spices. Yeah, yeah. This is a bar. I shouldn’t have expected a real pizza. The chips & dip also weren’t terrible but they’re the same basic chips you could order at any bar. Same with the dip. Since I was sitting at a table, I had a server. I had empty glasses & plates for at least 30 minutes. Eventually I had to ask the bartender for a beer. Instead of him just pouring me one, he said«I’ll send your server over.» Ok, make me wait some more, that makes sense. Overall, not impressed & will not be returning. Unless I — for some reason — randomly become friends with a bunch of 21-year-olds in Westlake.

I would rather have a hot fudge enima than ever have to step foot in here again. Irish and Mexican go together as well as Crisco and sunbathing… sounds like a good idea but ends badly. Went on a Saturday and one girl was tending bar and the whole restaurant. She was nice but we had to wait for everything. Food was just bad bar food. Nothing worth even recomending. Sat in the corner by a random empty glass case. Bar itself is a nice copy of Great Lakes bar but the rest of the place looks jumbled and cheap. Ill eat my shepards pie tacos elsewhere.

When we were there, some time ago, the food was really good but it was loud in there! Couldn’t talk to our table mates so we haven’t been back.

So, I go to this place with my cousin and friend. My cousin had a purple shirt on too, that will come into play later on… The food was disgusting and drinks were weak and pricy. If I’m wrong, it wont be the first or last time but, it may be a gay bar? My friend suggested and«she“is a female. I payed it no mind until I put everything together. As soon as we sat two guys approach the bar and start talon aloud with/to my cousin about how he wishes he was in shape like an NFL player on tv, guys outweigh females and looked questionable? Like I said it doesnt bother me either way, im just curious. Id like to know so I can make fun of my cousin for taking us there, btw, now you know why I commented on his purple shirt… Mexican and Irish???

Yay! I’m a fan. I’m loca for loco. It is a Saturday afternoon/evening and the pickings are slim. However, with a group I had a great time. Shots, shots, shots, shots, everybody. Bud light lime, don’t mind if I do. Nommmm time; tacos and hangover burger. «I would order it everyday if I could.» My BFF’s words verbatim, referring to the burger. I really enjoyed their soft tacos with sriracha sauce, the spicier the better. Try the corn and bean salsa with hot sauce and chips, yummo. Great bar food, right on service and good times.

Loco, what happened? You’ve gone down the toilet and I used to like you so.(cue the sad music and a tear on my cheek) The handsome man and I went last Sunday post-church for a marg. and some mex. The place was a ghost-town!(of course we were there at 11:30am on a Sunday!) In place of the old tables /high tops were 4 rows of CPUs! WTF? Why do you have 20 CPUs in your bar? Gaming! Yes, but they don’t work and no, Loco doesn’t have a gambling license. The bartender informed us that the owner thought this was a good idea, but they just sit there because they don’t work. BRILLIANT! Did I mention that they’re at the front of house so they occupy the lovely windows that open up in the summer. Poor choice Loco. The menus were dirty and now sported black sharpie Xs over the items, I assume, they don’t carry any longer.(Can we say TACKY? Add that to the CPU zoo and we’re on a roll). The chips & salsa were eh… the guac. was definitely«Holy Guacamole» which, while I do purchase that brand, was not something I’d expect to get in a «restaurant». I ordered tacos and the man got a burrito. Bleh. Nothing fancy, and it was food. Loco, I’m no longer Loco for you. I think I’ll skip you from now on.

Good place to hangout, I like this location a lot compared to Lakewood. It’s a fun dive bar but a good place to meet friends and have a pitcher or two. Atmosphere is cool, good music… I’m not too sure on their drink specials, but I know they sometimes hand out coupons for drinks, so it can’t hurt to ask for some! Loco is definitely a place where you will find this little leprechaun ;)

To say I hang with people who have a sense of irony is an understatement. Hence, our evening out to Loco Leprechaun, the«Irish Cantina» in Westlake(in a strip mall, obviously). My friend Bobo and I were tossing ideas of where to meet up back and forth when it popped into my head. I could barely contain my excitement before saying the words«it’s both Mexican AND Irish.» Stupid and amazing all at the same time. But, we were both hungry and actually wanted food we’d like. Was it a good night to let our love of all things warped guide our decisions? After some quick research I found the cantina’s menu and saw it had potential. It was like this weird Mexican/Irish fusion that took all the foods you love to nibble on when you’re drunk and mixed them up. One stand out: Reuben Nachos. The actual restaurant felt warehousey and sterile, not like a pub or cantina. It felt more like a storefront in a strip mall with murals of Leprechauns wearing sombreros painted by a Kent Stater busing tables over the summer. We also found little cards on all the tables telling us to «ice your friends.» The slogan, accompanied by photos of hambones drinking Smirnoff Ice, had recently entered our world, but we weren’t sure exactly what it meant. Luckily, fellow Unilocaler Matt M. arrived to explain it. Basically, hambones make other hambones drink Smirnoff Ice to humiliate each other when in public. Loco Leprechaun is that sort of place. Yeah. The food is tasty and seemed fresh. While the atmosphere is void of soul, the food isn’t. I dug the tacos with cabbage and the Reuben nachos.
