Chicken Mole, yum, and a giant Elephante burrito! I met Lolita, what a delightful person. I highly recommend this restaurant. Oh, and the Mexican Wedding cookies are to die for, don't miss a sack to take home. read more

Lolita's - Chicken Mole, yum! - Mexican Near Me - Waco, Texas

See all

Every time I come to Waco this is my first spot for breakfast. The food is delicious and the staff is amazing!

The elephante is a rightful name for the must-order massive breakfast burrito. I pour the red salsa over the top with each bite and wash it down with their $2 refillable coffee. read more

Best home style TexMex around. The caldo is excellent. Love the breakfast potatoes on huevos rancheros or a la Mexicana breakfast plates. The beans are great, too. I also like the crispy beef tacos and chalupas with shredded chicken. Really, you can't go wrong!! We eat there ( takeout for now during pandemic) twice a week! read more

Checked this place out this morning and had the chorizo and eggs breakfast. Portion sizes were on point, not too large or too small. Bacon is fantastic! Disappointed that the tortillas had a plastic/packaged smell and taste to them. If they had a more home made feel and taste, this would have changed my experience dramatically. read more

Lolita's - Mexican Near Me - Waco, Texas

There was a2 hour wait at magnolia table,, went to Lolita's and it was excellent traditional Mexican food!!! Breakfast was delicious!!!! Go there or be square!!! read more

My biggest advice for Lolita's is GET THE ELEFANTE!!! It's the best biggest and breakfast burrito I have ever had! It comes with delicious salsa on the side. You seriously can't go wrong with the ELEFANTE and a cup of Joe. The price can't be beat either. read more

First time there & it took them 25 mins to move one car. Was really excited to try their food but didn't have time to wait because I have to go to work. Honestly really disappointed. read more

Not impressed by any means. Used to be so good, I'm not sure what changed. Just spent $30 on breakfast tacos & they are so greasy you can not eat them. Ordered bacon, eggs potato & 2 bacon egg potato & beans, literally had a soggy tortilla due to grease. Will not be going back anytime soon. read more

Came through the drive through for a couple of Elephante breakfast burritos. Been here a decade ago, but it is still as good as ever. The sausage, bacon, egg and cheese combo is awesome. Wish the potatoes were a bit more browned though. read more

Lolita's is a little family hole in the wall. The sign on the door reads: Profanity is not permitted here. My respect was earned. Breakfast tacos are cheap and tasty. If you judge Mexican restaurants on the salsa though, this place is not a winner. The salsa is a soupy broth and it has little flavor. read more

I grew up on Lolita's and consider it a must whenever I'm in Waco in time for breakfast burritos. This is the kind of place where the people get to know you and no matter how long you've been away...it feels like home. Their lunch food is also amazing--but when I'm there...it's for breakfast!!! They also have a drive through---incredibly convenient. if you're in the 254--this place is AWESOME! read more

Best breakfast tacos in Waco. Call ahead for drive through. Don't be "that guy" or it can back up quickly. The staff are warm and friendly.

Food is amazing! Only reason is 4/5 stars is because the wait times are always ridiculously long, and they could definitely use a larger building. Otherwise, it's one of my favorites in Waco!! read more

Truly an awful experience... Not only did I witness the manager stick her fingers inside the community water pitcher to refill it, but there's also 2 tables stored inside of the restroom. I hope they don't expect people to eat on those... lol. The food was ok, nothing spectacular. My parents and I waited over 45 minutes to get our order of just 3 burritos. It was honestly frustrating to see such little food come out of the kitchen. The staff were extremely slow completing orders, and were incapable of answering basic, rudimentary questions. If you're in the mood for sub-par Mexican food, by all means come here and risk leaving unsatisfied. However, if you don't want to experience the added tension of being hangry, please save yourself the stress and don't come to this glorified taco stand. read more

This little hole in the wall has a great breakfast. I got the huevo con chorizo (which was a tad cold) but otherwise tastes great. The bf got huevos rancheros, which was a very generous helping of refried beans (sooo good), potatoes, bacon (on point), and 2 over easy eggs. Definitely hit the spot! read more

This place is a solid 4 stars. The salsa is really tasty (and perfectly spicy) and the breakfast burritos are super cheap. My only complaint is that the tortillas and the chips are not homemade (I'm thinking store brand HEB). Not awful, but could be much better. read more

Best breakfast tacos in Waco hands down. Small restaurant but usually fast service. There queso is also awesome!

Excellent fresh food. You order your food, pay for it and they deliver it to your table. Nothing fancy but great food. No alcohol.

Worst fajitas I have ever eaten. Both chicken and beef were over cooked. Beans were bland and service was slow. Maybe the breakfast is good but not lunch. read more

My parents eat here just about every single Saturday morning for breakfast. I'm sure if my mom or my dad were writing this review there would be two more stars highlighted up there. But this is me and I have to say... they really need some NON-EGG options on their breakfast menu because I just don't eat those nasty things. So, since I was there I ended up with a enchilada, taco, rice and beans. The taco was just ok, the enchilada wasn't cooked long enough because the cheese wasn't melted. And well... you just can't do much to rice and beans. The Horchata and the Chips were the best part of the meal. I had good hopes for breakfast (since the Taqueria in Hewitt has the best pancakes ever)... but I think the next time I'm in town on a Saturday, I'll just sleep in and let my parents go eat their migas. read more

A hidden Waco gem filled w delicious food and local Waco clientele who have been going here for decades - that says it all!! No dining room but tables outside and drive-through. Jeremy is salt of the earth people and those whipping up the tasty food deserve a standing ovation. Full menu available in the mornings. Migas, combo plate, breakfast tacos, chips& salsa all authentic. This will be a must-visit anytime we are in Waco. If you don't come try this place that makes you feel like you are visiting your best friend's abuelita (grandmother) kitchen, then you are missing out! read more

Always good burritos and breakfast in general. Just make sure to call ahead and order during the pandemic the sitting area is closed and it's drive threw only. Allow yourself 10 to 15 minutes from the time you order and you will be fine. read more

Had the breakfast here last time I was in town, and I enjoyed it greatly! Ordered a chorizo and some other breakfast taco (bacon I'm sure :D) and they were very good! I was a bit apprehensive, because they ALL had potato in them, and I'm not a big fan of potato and egg, but they did this right, so I may be a convert! Good prices too, the cashier lady rang me up with a drink I didn't ask for though, so coffee it was! Which was rather nice at that, good coffee, but I'm not terribly picky... Well definitely come back, would like to come with some friends next time! read more

Horrible service! Me and my boyfriend ordered 5 tacos in the drive thru. We were asked to pull up to the orange cones and we waited over 30 mins for our food while everyone else was driving around us with their order. Never again! read more

While a hole-in-the-wall, Lolita's delivers awesome food at great prices. What more could you ask for? Known for their breakfast tacos, Lolita's also does lunch well. Their "queso" (salsa with melted cheese in it) is also quite good. Really, it's hard to go wrong here. The only way to go wrong is not to visit. read more

Their food is great! Period. Everything i have eaten here has been really.good. sometimes they get full and it is difficult to find a table (that is a great sign of really good food!). My puppy and i have sat outside at the picnic tables in the summer. read more

Out of town visitors do not go eat here. Very disappointing! We came to eat with my son who going back to Houston for college and thought it would be a treat to eat brunch downtown Waco. We definitely should have looked at the reviews first. NO ONE GETS IN A HURRY! So if you are hungry or in a time crunch, do not go here to eat! One of the reviews said the customer service was poor! Well that person nailed it. As far as for the atmosphere it is smoky and not very clean! Seating is limited and the tables are unclean. As we sat waiting, people who just Walked in got there food before us! So we will definitely not be coming back to eat here. POOR SERVICE read more

Been going there since I was born! Best breakfast burritos in town . Go to the counter and order ! It's not rocket science

Easily my favorite breakfast/Mexican restaurant ever. They have the best bacon on the planet

Lolitas is my favorite restaurant in the world. In high school I ate here every Sunday after church. I still crave the elephante breakfast burrito smothered in their queso weekly. Lolitas is also the only place that I approve of getting chips and queso for breakfast. To wash everything down, be sure and grab one of their delicious cookies. With regular enough attendance you will get to know the owners and feel that they are inviting you into their home for a delicious meal. It is the best breakfast a body could ask for. Right Sydney? read more

Wow the elephante burrito is to die for and so is their salsa con queso! Love coming here for a cheap breakfast. It would be 5 stars but the younger girl that works running food needs an attitude adjustment. We love the food so much that that doesn't stop us from returning! read more

This place is good. I love their potatoes! Idk how they do it but the texture is really interesting. Almost chewy. As if they boiled then fried it? Either way, it's delicious. Price point is the thing that keeps me coming back. Everything is so cheap! I only wished they used corn tortilla on the burritos. read more

I went for the first time and wasn't too thrilled. I had barbacoa. The meat was warm and had an ok flavor. The corn tortillas tasted like they came from a package. The flour tortillas were not hand made. The red salsa was lacking in seasoning and did nothing to add flavor to my tacos. read more

Fantastic, delicious breakfast burritos. Just kinda disappointed when I open the burritos from the foil, nothing but grease came raining down; even the bag was greasy. Although, that didn't stop me from devouring an awesome burrito. Not sure when I'll go back though. read more

The breakfast tacos are so fresh and good! This morning i has the potato-bean-egg taco and sausage-egg-potato and would highly recommend you getting them. The service is quick and friendly and you can tell that this place has the hometown feel. Will be back again to eat here when I'm back in Waco! read more

Over the weekend we visited my roommates brother in law for a diaper party. Saturday night was a success and so we woke up super hungry on Sunday. We decide to go here at the request of a Waco native. We get there and it was not really busy ( by the looks of the restaurant). I order two tacos to go. The wait was at least an hour. When I finally get back to the house to eat, I find that the tacos were not even that good. The tortillas were not home made and the tacos were bland at that. I don't know what all the hype is about but I was sadly disappointed. C'mon Waco, you can do better. read more

Best breakfast burrito place in town! Love the staff and the food! You can't go wrong with the elefante burrito! Also, they are able to use corn tortillas in place of flower in order to accommodate for people who are gluten free! Highly recommend! read more

So, I come here often and the food is great! But the costumer service was terrible, so bad that I litterally made a yelp account so I could write this review. The young girl they have at the register was extremely rude and every time we asked for anything we we're given attitude back. Once again I love the food it's great but they should really consider who they have interacting with their costumers. read more

Best breakfast tacos I have ever had!!! Really awesome and fast service!!! Gonna have to make a stop everytime Im passing through!
