“Freshness in every bite”

At Loco Lime we are spicing things up in Dorset with the best darn Mexican street food around! We might be the new kids on the block, but we're growing faster than you can say "salsa."

Our team is a bunch of young, taco-loving fanatics who are cooking up a storm and having a blast doing it. From tasty street tacos to mind-blowing burritos, we're all about bringing the fiesta to your taste buds.

We firmly believe in serving high quality birria tacos, loaded burritos, burrito rice bowls and much more.

We are super passionate about our food and we believe every bite should be a delight.

“We believe in serving quality Mexican food at an affordable price to bring the spirit of Mexico to the heart of Dorset”

We're Arun and Zachary, the brains (and appetites) behind this taco-filled rollercoaster of a journey. Back in our uni days, when all-nighters and instant noodles were our jam, we cooked up this crazy idea of starting a food truck that slings the best darn tacos you've ever tasted.

Fast forward to the streets of Dorset, where our taco dreams started becoming a reality. Picture this: the sizzle of spices, the smell of awesomeness in the air, and happy taco lovers lining up. It was in those moments that we realized, "Hey, this isn't just a business—it's our thing."

From dorm room daydreams to the pop-up pandemonium, every taco we served became a symbol of friendship, flavor, and a whole lot of good times. We stumbled into something way more awesome than just running a food truck; we discovered our shared passion for bringing people together through the magic of tacos.

So, join us on this wild ride—from our university days when the taco seed was planted to the bustling reality of running our own food brand. It's not just about tacos; it's about turning dreams into something you can sink your teeth into. Here's to the journey, the flavors, and the joy of making taco dreams come true.
