The staff are very laid back and do their best to meet your needs in a quick manner. That's pretty awesome.
The food varies from awesomely creative to a bit over salty. While on a recent visit, I ordered the fish tacos. These are your standard variety where the fish is breaded. Then, I overheard and employee on the phone ordering fish sticks. I guess that deflated my opinion a bit. I haven't asked for grilled fish, but will try that on my next visit.
The black beans and rice always come out fresh and hot. However, many have agreed they are a bit over salty. No they don't talk bad to me when I ask them questions; they just seem to have more of a Tex-Mex flavor.
The Local Taco has a nice selection of craft salsas and decent cheese dip. I would attribute the cheese more of a blend between traditional Mexican white cheese and thicker Monterrey Jack.
I like that each day they have two creative taco selections that are not on the menu. Follow them on Facebook to track these - http://www.facebook.co....
They have a great beer selection (many microbrewery beers) and make some killer margaritas. They also have very small bar if you decide to go alone and hang.
The seating outside is awesome. They an enclosed area (in the winter) that has a very well covered heating system. In the summer, the patio is open air and a great place to relax and enjoy the foot traffic.
The food here is not poor. However, it does lend to a bit over salted and less Mexican than American. The Local Taco is a nice place to have in town. Very casual and enjoyable. Don't be crazy; give The Local Taco a try.
