El Gran Taco Loco has been serving Mexican classics at its eight locations throughout Southwest Florida since 2015.

Owned and operated by Mauricio and Nazareth Martinez and their family, the local restaurant chain, which is based in Immokalee, recently swapped out the big red truck at its outpost at 5659 Lee Blvd., Lehigh Acres for a smaller truck that has allowed it to add a seating area with overhead lighting where customers can gather and eat onsite.
Apart from the usual offerings — tacos, tortas, gorditas, quesadillas, alambres — El Gran Taco Loco has added pollo al carbon to its lineup. Pollo al carbon is grilled chicken cooked over coal. El Gran’s pollo platter comes with yellow rice, beans and tortillas. The dish is currently available at the Lehigh truck and El Gran’s location in the Immokalee flea market.
The full lineup of El Gran Taco Loco spots includes brick-and-mortar restaurants in Immokalee, Bonita Springs, LaBelle and Homestead, as well as food trucks in Lehigh Acres, Cape Coral and at the Immokalee flea market. Visit elgrantacobarandgrill.com for more.
