First time here and wow, we were blown away. Wings were amazing and I am a wing connoisseur. Got the old bay wings and they were smoked then deep fried. Were great and the steak tacos were so tender and delicious as well. Service was great and place was clean. Drinks were also great. Got the margarita flight. Definitely recommend and will come back.

We used Tony for our wedding catering. He and his staff were incredible. Not only was the food and drinks amazing but they were so attentive. We had multiple guest comment on how wonderful they were. We worked with Tony to design the menu and the whole process was extremely smooth. I can’t say enough good things, they truly made our day a success!!

Actually some of the most delicious food I have ever had...
I was looking for a place to try in MD for tapas, but all my first picks were closed on Mondays. And so, I found Tony's Locs in the Haight!
I took an uber here, but it's around residential streets so you could probably circle around and find a spot. My party of two came here around 5PM was able to snag one of the last tables inside. There was already plenty of people at this time!
We decided on ordering a few things:
CEVICHE --- this was a strong start to our meal. The white fish ceviche was served in a glass on a plate with chips. This was plenty as an "appetizer" for two people as they did not skimp on the fish, that's for sure. I love the freshness and the acidity of the lime, and the fish pairs so well with the red onions, cilantro and serrano chilies. I liked how small they minced the chilis, so I wasn't dying of heat lol. It also came with two plantain chips! My only gripe was the presentation made it a little hard to scoop from, but not the end of the world.
CAJUN SHRIMP --ok WAIT. This was a last minute dish we decided on ordering, but it ended up being the star of the show. WOW the sauce for this cajun shrimp was out of this world delicious. I'm not sure if the dish or the table comes with bread, but I dipped every single ounce of that bread into the sauce. It was creamy, spicy, sweet, salty, and basically heaven. I don't usually indulge in heavier/creamier sauces, but if you get one thing here, it has to be the cajun shrimp. I will say the shrimp was like whatever though it's like they just plopped six or seven small shrimpies into the sauce. But the sauce is so good you don't even care about the shrimp.
PAELLA MIXTA -- we love paella, and knew this was a must-order. I enjoyed the variety of meats/seafoods in here since there was chicken, salmon, sausage, mussels, and shrimps. Everyone is happy. I enjoyed the saffron rice, but wish it was a bit crispier like some paellas are. You have to squeeze every ounce of the lemon for the best citrusy/salty flavor. I will say, I started drenching my plate with the cajun shrimp sauce though, because that was so flavorful it made this kind of not. But still really good and of course paella can never disappoint.
SANGRIA -- Cha Cha Cha is known for their sangria, but I was really interested in their cocktail menu which looked delicious. However, I was convinced to order the sangria after I looked around and every single table had it. We ordered the 1/2 pitcher for the two of us, which evened out to a little more than 2 glasses/person. I think Tony's Locos has definitely changed my mind about sangria. It was really sweet, which I enjoyed, and the fruit flavors actually came through in the taste. Definitely order this and try it out.
Overall, some of the best food I've ever had. It is a bit pricey though, as our bill for two came out to around $100 after taxes and tip. The flavors are TOO good though, you can't beat it

We went to see the sunflowers and was recommended this place by the workers there. It did not disappoint. The service was good a little busy so it was slower than normal but that's to be expected.
Once we orded, the food came out quickly and it was presented very well. I did not catch a picture of the chicken skewers because they went to fast but the other two I did. The food was delicious. We enjoyed it and did not have to wait long until it came out.
They had a large beer collection and you could buy large cocktails if you had a group.
Lastly they had two different section of seating which were polar opposite. You can go chill and eat on the right or have a loud and busy environment on the left. We chose the left. Will go again

We were passing through town on our way to Pennsylvania we decided to stop and eat here. Amazing atmosphere and food. I really recommend the tacos. There was also live music, and the band was wonderful. Staff was very friendly and attentive. Definitely recommend stopping in.

My whole fam loves this place! We've been there so many times. Drink flights selection is awesome and good beers on tap. Food is always on point. I think we've tried all the apps! We always look forward to their Sunday Funday specials. Service is always friendly.

I walked in without many expectations, but was pleasantly surprised with what I found! The menu was a bit confusing and all over the place, but everything came out shockingly good. I would've expected a menu spread that thin to have lacked in quality, but nobody was disappointed with their meal. We had the calamari, Buffalo wings, tacos, gnocchi, and layered plantains. Very impressive for a place with such wide options!

Had low expectations of a shopping center restaurant, but was pleasantly surprised by the charming atmosphere at Tony Locos. The outdoor patio was adorable and the crush flights were a fun and summery touch. Lots of good food options, and no disappointments! Will definitely be coming back for more!
