Great news for Mexican food lovers: Loca 2.0 has opened its doors in Dubai’s Souk Al Bahar. This is the second outlet for Loca (hence, the 2.0). The original Loca is in the Dubai Marine Beach Resort & Spa in Jumeirah.

Loca 2.0 will dish up Mexican favourites such as burritos, ceviche, enchiladas and their famous made-at-the-table guacamole. The new outlet, which opens today (December 9), has an outdoor seating area with views of the Burj Khalifa and the Dubai Fountain. It seats more than 180 guests across a space that spans nearly 540 square metres.

Loca cofounder Hiba Kosta says: “Souk Al Bahar is the perfect destination to launch the second Loca and we are so excited to have opened up at the doorstep of the Burj Khalifa. We are confident that our new venue will deliver the same excellent service and authentic Mexican fare that our customers have grown to love.”

Loca 2.0 is open daily from noon to 1:30am. 04 449 4455, www.locauae.com
