I might sound a bit like Guy Fieri on this one because this is just the kind of place Diners,Drive Ins & Dives, and I love to find and talk about. Loco jo's is one of those discreet very small hidden in the corner of a small business complex that you may just walk right past because it looks like it could be just another normal local pub with the same old boaring pub food, but NO, it is anything but that. The menu here may be a bit small to some standards but the elevated and creatively Asian inspired dishes along with some normal pub favorites that are created In the kitchen rivaled many Asian and american restaurants I've had in the past. Every dish that came to our table far exceeded what any of us expected. From the crispy fried ribs to the lemon grass curry with seared tuna and the banh mi sandwich, every dish made to order with the freshest ingredients as possible. I would have loved to be in that kitchen watching the chef and crew working up these meals that were coming out in record time. Along with a great local vibe and an excellent wait staff that is very attentive I'll guarantee you'll fall in love with this place as much as we did, so you ever find yourself in Southport NC or any where remotely close you gotta go give this place a try, #ncfoodie #ncfoodblogger #supportlocal #southportnc

This is an excellent little spot to grab some delicious food and a drink. It’s kind of a locals type spot and everyone is welcome. I had their famous cheeseburger and it is awesome. My wife loved the fish tacos. Great service.

Super friendly staff. GREAT drinks. Their food is always good. There aren't many tables on the inside...a little small. They do have a good many bar seats. Overall, I really like this place. Definitely recommend stopping in for some food and drinks.... Definitely drinks.

WOW!!! Talk about being pleasantly surprised. What a gem. I've had Bahn Mi in Hanoi, and this was pretty dang close! The boom boom cauliflower... Dangggg... Today's special was a fried chicken bao bun... Daggum... I hope it's on the menu when you get there... Moral of the story is... Get there!!!

Food and service here is ALWAYS GREAT. A little small inside so we typically eat outside. Lots of drink specials and their dinner specials are always spot on. Probably something on the menu for everyone. We just love this place. Quality food and friendly, helpful service. You need to try it if you haven't been there.

Great local bar with perfect appetizers and dishes to go with a cocktail. Friendly staff and very knowledgeable bartender. Definitely recommend after a day around Southport

So much fun. Great drinks good food. Waitress was fantastic, had our group of 5 laughing the whole time. Wish I got her name.

Amazing daily specials! I got Pineapple Jerk Baby Back Ribs with rice and Carribean Slaw as well as Salted Carmel Cheesecake and it was all to die for! My best friend got the Fish & Chips which was HUGE as well as the Dumpling appetizer and it was all absolutely delicious as well! Highly recommend this place! It's now a staple when I come to Oak Island!
