This local south of the border favorite serves up sizzling favorites that are popular among visitors and locals alike. Always fresh, the creative concoctions here are sure to satisfy your craving for Mexican food. That, paired with a fresh margarita, is the perfect combination for the ideal beach splurge. Check out some of the top picks at Burro Loco and give this popular cantina a try during your next beach trip:

Appetizers: Nine Layer Dip
This decadent starter is the perfect way to tease your taste buds. The dip includes nine luscious layers packed with flavor: refried beans, black beans, cheddar cheese, sliced jalapenos, tomatoes, Monterey jack cheese, onions, homemade guacamole, and sour cream. Sweet, salty, spicy, crunchy, and fresh – this dip has it all.

Quesadilla: Spinach & Mushroom
The quesadillas here are made with a large flour tortilla that is loaded with fillings and then grilled until crisp and delicious. The spinach and mushroom variety offers a refreshing twist on a traditional favorite. Filled to the brim with wilted spinach, chopped mushrooms, sautéed onions, and Monterey jack cheese, this vegetarian option can also be enjoyed with chicken, steak, or shrimp if you have a carnivorous craving.

Nachos: Chicken Fajita
The nachos at Burro Loco do not disappoint. All nachos are loaded with melted Monterey jack cheese and cheddar cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, jalapenos, guacamole, and sour cream. The chicken fajita nachos kick things up with the addition of zesty chopped chicken and refried beans. This heaping portion is large enough to share... if you are feeling nice.

Mexican Pizza: Flamethrower
This creative concoction is perfect for those looking to kick things up a few notches. As the name suggests, the flamethrower pizza packs a punch. Made with a thin crust tortilla, this pizza is topped with spicy tomato sauce, jalapenos, black beans, sausage, onions, crushed red pepper, and plenty of cheese and then baked to bubbly perfection in the wood fire oven.

Specialty: Tampico Trio
Variety is the spice of life with the Tampico trio. Guests who order this favorite can enjoy a beef, a chicken, and a cheese enchilada topped with a house chili con carne, sour cream drizzle, and a specialty burro sauce, respectively. This tripple platter is perfect for those who just can’t decide! Each specialty plate comes with rice and a choice of refried, ranchero, or black beans.

Burrito: BBQ Fajita Chicken
Combine south of the border flavors with a familiar favorite – BBQ – with this mouthwatering combination. The BBQ fajita chicken burrito is packed with juicy grilled chicken seasoned with fajita spice, cheddar cheese, grilled peppers and onions, and then rolled in a flour tortilla. The tortilla is then brushed with a tangy BBQ sauce and then grilled.

Don’t forget to pair your perfect entrée with a fresh, flavorful margarita. After all, Mexican fare isn’t really complete without this classic beverage. Whether you prefer it with or without salt or on the rocks or frozen, the talented bartenders can surely make your favorite flavorful concoction.
