Finding a parking was a definite sign we picked the right place! We were greeted with a friendly welcome and seated immediately! We ordered the salsa and chips for starters and I chose the "Ultimate Burger". The chips and salsa were great. Salsa tasted homemade! My burger and French fries arrived and it was large enough to share. Very tasty with just the right amount of green chili heat! Needless to say, I could not finish my burger but I sure tried as it was by far one of the best burgers I have had in a long time! Next time you are in Tucumcari New Mexico, stop in! read more

Loretta's Burrito Hut - Loretta's Famous Ultimate Burger - New Mexican Cuisine Near Me - Tucumcari, New Mexico

When we ordered I was informed they were out of my first two choices - Indian Frybread taco & Stuffy (stuffed sopapilla. Boyfriend ordered frito pie & she came back a few minutes later to say they were out of Fritos! Why doesn't someone just go to the store? We should have left. He ended up getting a burrito smothered Christmas. He lived in New Mexico, has eaten NM food in other states & said this was the worst NM food he ever had. The chile was watery & lacking in flavor. My chile rellenos were different than I'm used to - instead of the egg & flour coating it was like a shake n bake breading. It was okay but not great. Over the top Christian decor & Christian music/KLOVE on loud. Also, bathroom says out of order but I was told I could use it. Hmmm? read more

Drove by Loretta's en route to another Yelp location . Didn't like the looks of the other place so we drove back to Loretta's and we were glad we did. Clean restaurant, good food, and eclectic decor. Don't drive by this place.... it's worth the stop!! read more

Loretta's- WOW!! Best salsa since La Familia in LFK. On Route 66 and SO GOOD. Dave had the breakfast tacos with green sauce and I had the kids taco and beans. Perfect amount. Local man sitting next to us said he used to buy burritos from Loretta's car when they were in school. How fun to be around that kind if history. Good was excellent, atmosphere, relaxed and Loretta was a dream. Definitely the place for breakfast or lunch! read more

Is an okay restaurant the burgers are good when I can get over there they seem to never be open when I do go there

If you want truly authentic Mexican food, with some wonderful service then Loretta's is your place. Small family owned restaurant serving you homemade food that is delicious. Portion sizes are average but filling. There prices are average and you cannot beat the variety of food to pick from on there menu. Everything is amazing. There homemade guacamole is to die for. My husband and I had there taco specials. He had beef and I had asada. Amazing flavor so fresh. It came with rice and beans. Definitely loved this place. read more

We stopped in from our cross country travels on the 50 freeway! Amazing food! Loretta herself introduced herself. The Brisket Taquito plate was outstanding. My husband got a Green chili and meat burrito which he loved as well. The wait staff were very nice and courteous. The restaurant and bathroom were clean. read more

I love Loretta's Burrito Hut, the food is awesome and the service is very friendly. My favorite burrito is the beef and potato burrito with green Chiles. It's very tasty and if you're not quite ready for a breakfast burrito in the morning I suggest the breakfast tacos. It is 3 tacos on corn tortillas with egg, potato your choice of bacon, ham or sausage, I liked the bacon. No matter what it is good! Please support local businesses like Loretta's while on the road. It's well worth the stop on Route 66! read more

We are five miles down the road after eating at Loretta's and we are still talking about how good it was, so decided to leave a review. Don't pass up the chance to eat here! I had the enchilada burrito (red sauce) and it was flavorful and delicious. The best burrito I've ever had. My husband had a beef and bean burrito with green chile sauce and it was also very good. Loretta was friendly and spoke with every patron. Definitely will eat here when we are in Tucumcari again. read more

It wasn't what I was expecting, the food is fair no regrets, but nothing real special, read more

Loretta's Burrito Hut - Outside - New Mexican Cuisine Near Me - Tucumcari, New Mexico

Ambiance nice. I got a lot of it. Waited for 35 minutes for 2 burritos. The Chile relleno burrito was filled with a pound of beans and one small Chile. Even though I asked for rice as a filling. Breakfast burrito fine. salsa ok, not spicy. Perhaps order first/served last because no electronic tip on takeout. Sorry, we tip on good service, not expected service. read more

Smothered green chili chorizo breakfast burrito was amazing and Loretta was so nice and gracious

Truly a delight! I had the meat and bean burrito, Christmas style and the hubs had the adovada burrito. The food was wonderful and Loretta is so sweet! Real home cooking, made with love and muy delicioso! read more

Unfortunately, there's not a lot of options in the small town of Tucumcari. This looked like a cute little place. Staffing service was incredible. However, the food was Soso. I don't think I've had green chili with ground beef before? Again wasn't bad but wasn't good either. The enchilada burrito sounded like a interesting and fun choice but unfortunately very bland. Chips and salsa were decent. If you're in a pinch, give it a go. But I would venture somewhere else if you really into food. read more

Excellent freshly made NM food. I had the Relleno Burrito - smothered. It was fantastic. My sidekick enjoyed her breakfast burrito. The service was great. The atmosphere was just fine with some decent classic rock in the background. I wish that LBH was closer to my home. You folks of Tucumcari have a real treasure in LBH. I look forward to my next visit. read more

Stopped in at Loretta's on a cross country drive to pick up a breakfast burrito. They made my California ass a specialized burrito and they knocked it out of the park! Will be back on my way back across the country. Very nice and very welcoming to out of towners. read more

Waited an hour for them to make 5 breakfast burritos to-go! No customer service for overpriced food!

We happened on this restaurant when coming through and it was a great. The food was excellent!! Place was clean and our waitress Laressa was very personable. We will definitely be back!!! read more

Checked out places and this Mexican restaurant had the highest reviews. Unfortunately you could tell they were short staffed. Also the waitress wasn't very friendly. Only one of the three of us had the correct order given to us. The plates were tossed in front of us and then she took off. Never came back to see if we needed anything. I even asked when she gets a moment can I ask her a question. Due to our drink orders being wrong. she replied with, "sure when I get a moment" (a bit sarcastic). Then never returned. Unfortunately I think this has everything to do with short staffed and she was running around by herself. But the quality of the food and the service were so poor I can't suggest this place to anyone I know. Find another place for a friendly meal. read more

We usually pass through this way a couple times a year and like to stop here and eat. The food is made fresh and I've liked everything I tried here. We eat in since I've taken burritos to go and made a mess in my car. Better to sit down with utensils over a plate. Simple and delicious. read more

Saw their billboard on the freeway as we were heading from the Midwest back home to Arizona. Gave them a try and as another reviewer said, wow! Friendly staff and welcoming little place. I had a smothered burrito in red sauce and my wife had it regular. Best burrito I've ever had, period. The red sauce had a wonderful smokey, meaty taste. Will go back any time in the area. read more

Stopped by here on a long road trip and this was the best meal of the trip! The chips and salsa was freshly made to order along with one of the best burritos I've ever had! Pam was great and the service was quick! Definitely recommend! read more

Didn't grab photos because we were showing down immediately! Called in our order about :10 out. Found them on Yelp while driving through. Had the brisket taquitos and the chicken burrito. Had ordered the queso too but it didn't make it into the bag. They were kind enough to refund me after we realized it on the road. Highly recommend! read more

Tacos and quesadilla were very good. The quesadilla was big. The other items were okay.

My husband and I recently started going to Lorettas on Saturday morning for the menudo and posole with all the fixings, very good. If we go during the week, we have The huevos rancheros red and green aLso very delicious. We love it. Loretta's burrito hut is at a new location now same highway 66 same phone number same great service, across from the Boulevard cleaners and laundry mat. There's also outdoor seating now. 5 on Yelp! We will be returning read more

My first time in the little restaurant but I'll definitely be back. I ordered the breakfast burrito and it was delicious. Great food, friendly people and spotlessly clean. read more

Absolutely excellent place to eat, very clean, friendly staff (Larissa was great). This is definitely the place in Tucumcari for Mexican food. read more

Excellent food and service . Made me feel like I was a regular customer. The burrito was exactly what I was looking for, very tasty. Next time passing thru this will be a mandatory stop. read more

Small burrito place with around 8 tables. Informal, clean, very welcoming. I had the street taco plate and it was good. Served with beans, rice, clilantro, onion. Chips and salsa were good. Salsa not mild, which I like. Staff was all great. Menu is limited but this is a small Mexican restaurant in a small town. I was told to try this place at the local Elks Lodge, worth trying. read more

Food had no flavor at all (Tacos, rice, beans, pozole) beans were cold. The only good thing was the chips and Salsa. AND they have a sign on the door saying "Out of Order" even though the bathroom works just fine- they just want to have it for employees only. As a person who is traveling through the area a clean bathroom when I stop is important and it made me feel weird using a restroom that they didn't want anyone to use. read more

Stopped for to go food while driving. I thought the lunch stuff came with rice and beans and all I got the the burrito. With everything else, I figured it was in the bag but it wasn't. Now that we are 20 min away I guess it's gone. Took 30 min for them to make 4 basic burritos. And there was only one other couple in the place. No sour cream on any thing, maybe that's the style of NM food. The sauces the meats were cooked in were really tasty. But not worth the wait, time off the highway and cost for such little burritos. read more

Food gets three to four stars, but lack of service pushes down their rating. Orders are confused and delayed and generally chaotic between the staff. Our order was wrong and then delivered to the wrong table. read more

Green Chile meat burrito is tasty. Consistently is lacking. Some days meat is nice and moist and others days meat is on the drier side. Breakfast burritos are solid choice in town. read more

this could have possibly been some of the worst food i have ever ate in my life!!!! do not eat here even if it is the only restaurant around. just drive another hour or two if you really need some food. trust me, it is not worth it. read more
