Also offered my us fresh juice, which was highly appreciated. The decor was scenic as being in Mexico City, very nice ambience. I had the chicharron huevos rancheros, a first for me - which was great. My wife had the menudo, and also a pata - not as tender as we expected but tasty. We will be back to try more, next time we will try to beat the crowd. Very busy on Sunday's

You come in pick a table and she ask what you want to order and that's it (it's seems). It was just an older lady serving tables, but she never came back to check on us or asked for refills. I understand being by yourself as one person serving but if you have time to make rolled up utensils, you have time to come ask us for refills. I order the muchacha plate and it was so good! Nice and tasty! And my mom ordered the bananas plate! And she loved it!! And my mom is picky!! She said we would come again, just order take out!!

From eating huaraches, or tacos, or tortas, Loritos is the one who saves the day! Today was the first time I've visited driving on my own, and I was so nostalgic sitting down and looking at how it's grown. I remember seeing the old trailer parked against the wall. The old lonchera, the Gatorades lined in the ice chest at the trailer. The fact we would eat here after church, go to eat at loritos, and go straight to the swap meet on 35th Ave. I love it here because it's so fresh. The tacos are my fave, but if I'm really craving something good, the huaraches are it! I love the fact the tortillas are handmade. Salsa and toppings are so good! I recommend tacos de Asada, and a huarache de Al Pastor with an agua de Pepino. Thank me later. The service is quick, the guys taking the orders are major buzzkills but the food makes up for it. I love how I feel so comfortable outside regardless of the heat. They do take cash and Zelle! I can't wait to be back. It's been too long. Besos to the chef!

Lo mejor del área.

This is a TRUE hidden gem. It's not so hidden anymore since we see more and more people every time…read morewe visit (yes, we go at least once a week ), but honestly, I'm happy to see such a great local, family-owned spot getting the foot traffic they deserve -even if it means waiting a little longer to be seated. Food - I've never had anything here that I didn't like. I've tried almost everything at least once. Their most popular dish and my personal favorite is the chilaquiles. I always add bistec and sour cream. The plates come with beans, rice, a small green salad and macaroni salad. I'm not kidding... I started salivating just typing that. And we always end with a stack of pancakes - flavorful, fluffy, and huge. Seating / Indoors - It's a small, gallery-style space, and the tables seat four max. The building could use a little TLC, but I completely understand that family-owned restaurants operate on tight margins. It feels very homey and welcoming. Prices - Let me just say this, I ALWAYS tip generously because you genuinely feel like you're ripping them off - the food is THAT good and that affordable Highly, highly recommend!!!

Food is always good! I usually get the huaraches, burritos, tortas and carne asada fries and it's…read morealways yummy! The prices are not bad and the red sauce that they have reminds me of one that they make in my dad's pueblo. I love their homemade tortillas and huaraches so much. They are always very nice and service is good but sometimes can take a little longer due to the little restaurant being full but it's very understandable. Inside its looks little typical mexican decoration.

Quería compartir mi experiencia reciente en su restaurante el 2 de mayo de 2025, la cual,…read morelamentablemente, me dejó bastante decepcionada. Aunque la comida fue agradable, el servicio en general dejó mucho que desear. Fui la última persona en ser atendida en un grupo de cinco, y en un momento, una mesera accidentalmente me tiró una taza llena de hielo encima. Además, solo nos dieron unas diez totopos y lo que parecía ser una cucharada de salsa para compartir entre cinco personas, lo cual fue claramente insuficiente. Cuando pedí más totopos, no me informaron que tendría un costo adicional. Solo al recibir la cuenta me di cuenta de que me habían cobrado--sin ningún desglose ni recibo detallado que explicara el costo. También, no ofrecen agua gratuita, solo agua embotellada por $1.50, lo cual supe porque estaba indicado en el menú. Cuando expresé mi preocupación, fui educada pero clara en que la falta de transparencia no era aceptable. Más tarde, me enteré por un compañero de trabajo que la mesera comentó haberse sentido molesta por mis observaciones después de que me fui, lo cual me pareció poco profesional. Entiendo los desafíos que enfrentan los pequeños negocios, y realmente quiero apoyarlos. Sin embargo, la honestidad y una comunicación clara con los clientes son esenciales. Espero que tomen esto de manera constructiva y consideren mejorar tanto la comunicación como la consistencia en el servicio. I wanted to share my recent experience at your restaurant on 5/2/25, which, unfortunately, left me feeling quite disappointed. While the food itself was enjoyable, the overall service left much to be desired. I was served last in my party of five, and at one point, a server accidentally dropped a cup of ice on me. Additionally, we were given only about ten chips and what looked like a tablespoon of salsa to share among five people, which felt inadequate. When I asked for more chips, I wasn't informed that there would be an extra charge. Only when I received the bill did I see I had been charged--without any breakdown or itemized receipt to explain the cost. Also they don't have water only bottled water for $1.50 which I knew because it was on the menu. When I brought up my concern, I was polite but clear that the lack of transparency wasn't acceptable. I later found out from a coworker that the server expressed being bothered by my feedback after I left, which felt unprofessional. I understand the challenges small businesses face, and I want to support them. However, honesty and clear communication with customers are essential. I hope you'll take this feedback constructively and consider improving both communication and service consistency.

You know it's going to be good when families are getting out of their cars on a Sunday to come in…read morefor pozole. I had the pozole rojo, and visually, it looked really good. The color was nice, and the flavor was good. I will say the portion could have been a little more balanced. There was only one piece of pork and a lot of maíz, so I would've liked a little more meat. I also had to ask for more broth because it felt like it needed more soup to it. The temperature was also a little off. It first came out lukewarm, and after I asked for it to be warmed up, it came back boiling hot to the point where it was unable until it cooled down. I did like that they had garnishes available so I could adjust the flavor myself. I'd rather add a little more garnish than have it come out too salty or over-seasoned. The service was really great. As soon as I walked in, two ladies greeted me, welcomed me warmly, and once I mentioned it was my first time, they were very attentive. Overall, I'd give it a 3.5. There's no 3.5-star option, but that's honestly where it landed for me. The pozole could use a little more broth, more meat, and better temperature control but overall, Good service and good flavor.

Just super busy on a Sunday of course . The women were kind and took my order right away . I didn't have to wait long to order , or receive my order ! I got two order of pozole rojo with corn tortillas on the side which come with the soup ! And I also purchased and torta with asada ! The pozole was sooo flavorful ! I would say wish it had more meat ! The torta was a little soggy . But overall the food was good ! All for the price of $48.84 . I'd describe this place as a lil mom and pop shop very family oriented space . Overall I'd recommend coming here ! Also be aware of the parking ! It's a little congested from the other businesses and the foot traffic for the restaurant .
