This Latin Fusion restaurant opened in February 2006. The delicious cerviche, the pulled pork, and the quesadillas are impeccable The quinoa & beans side is exquisite too. Plus, they have buy 1 get 1 free drink specials until 8pm. Mojito Loco offers free delivery until 11pm.

Gothamist says:

Restaurants that we’d recommend off the L train’s Montrose stop are few and rarely worth visiting twice. Mojito Loco is an exception, with recipes coming from the Peruvian chef-owner’s fearsomely delicious arsenal. The dining room itself is a vortex of well-kept neighborhood restaurant and ’80s music-video showcase house (think: Rod Stewart on repeat). And at Mojito Loco every hour is happy hour, which means extra-strong $5 margaritas in six flavors, mixed drinks for $7, and beer starting at $2.
The winning-est plate in the house is the roast chicken (pollo a la brasa) for $8.75, a half-bird rubbed down with a hearty dose of spices, meat melting off the bone. Rice and black beans are plated separately, and a creamy garlic mojo sauce, crucial for dipping, arrives in ramekin on the side. Plates arrive with little accoutrement, but do not disappoint. The meat in the steak sandwich is thinly sliced and grilled only with onion, scorching hot french fries on the side, and is best dunked in the same garlic sauce.
While food is straightforward, it takes advantage of traditional Latin-American ingredients — jicama, quinoa, yucca, rocoto sauce, and cotija cheese – making frequent appearances on the menu in ceviches, served over tilapia, and in marinades. Nearly all are worth trying, especially since the most expensive dish on the menu registers at $17.50, with more than half under $10. Service is attentive, but unhurried, with a single friendly waitress tending both house and bar.

NY Mag says:

For perhaps the first time in recorded history—or at least, in Williamsburg—Peruvian and Southeast Asian cuisines share one lofty space done up in semi-tropical decor and serviced by two separate kitchens. So the next time one of you wants roast chicken and ceviche and the other has a hankering for Vietnamese Spring rolls, you won’t have to toss a coin.

Metromix says:

Maison Saigon Tacu Tacu touts an intriguing menu of Vietnamese and Peruvian unfusioned food whose separate kitchens ensure that these two cuisines shall never get together. You are other hand, should bring a date to share the generously portioned Cubed Steak Saigon or ceviche, and then perform a duet in the downstairs lounge on karaoke nights.
