Went there with friends because of good reviews and wasn't disappointed. The food was excellent and the service was equally good. A good place to go for dinner even when it's later because it's low carb. Will definitely go back there !

I was really torn between 4 and 5 points. While the service was yet again impeccable and impressive (one server for about 10 tables), I feel the food was a little less exciting than last time. Most importantly, the dessert was tiny and a little bit of a letdown. Granted, making a dessert from couscous is brilliant. However, for me, a meal has to be a crescendo that culminates in a messy, sticky and sweet orgasm for my palate. This was not the case... It felt more like a couscous handjob.

In any case, the format of Loca is brilliant (e.g., the beer pairing) and I hope this was a bit of an exception. Serving so many people with a total of 3 staff (2 kitchen & 1 front of house) will probably wear the most dedicated chef. I hope I can come back and be wowed again.

PS: The boy's room smelled really bad. A good scrubbing is in place!

We picked this restaurant based on the reviews and its gluten free friendly status and weren't disappointed. The six-course tasting menu was marvelous, with just enough of each tasty dish to give you a sensory burst of great flavors.
We enjoyed the recommended Austrian white wine which was pleasantly dry and crisp.
I highly recommend a visit to Loca!

we went to Loca for dinner, having read the numerous good reviews. The very knowledgeable and friendly waiter recommended the Euro 46 six course menu, and was able to adapt one or two dishes to our taste and preferences. For example, I had a spicy beef tartare instead of a soup. He made us taste - free of charge - an Austrian bio white wine, which was excellent, so we took a bottle. The menu is really good value for money, and the chef clearly has some talent. The red mullet and quail dishes were small but delicious.
The only quibble we had was that the party of eight at an adjacent table, which celebrated a birthday, was smoking basically non-stop, so we moved from the terrace to inside the restaurant after a while. But that wasn't in any way the restaurant's fault....

I went there with a couple of friends, just for a quick bite. It was excellent. The ingredients were fresh and well prepared. I will go back there for sure.
