“ This is the real deal; best breakfast in Waco. Everything was fresh and delivered with a smile ”
“ The food is excellent. They could use more or better quality servers or the ordering process needs an upgrade. One of the two would increase the service star rating. ”
“ Always Excellent Food! My Favorite Breakfast Place In Waco ”
“ Luv me sum Lolita’s! The hot sauce is the best in Waco and the elefante burrito is huge and very delicious, but my favorite is the chili relleno plate. I substitute potatoes for rice and It’s so much food that I can never eat it all... ”
“ Excellent home cooking; love the chicken and beef soups, love the carne asada, egg, bean burrito, get a side of sliced avocado to go with whatever you get. Chips are always good and crispy; get some green sauce along with regular red sauce. The barbacoa is always excellent too. And don't forget the cookies; the pecan topped are my fave. We get breakfast for lunch many days (well eggs) on whatever we order. ”
“ Lolita's is a hidden gem. Simplicity is a symphony of perfection. Every bite of our food was a throwback to our grandmother's cooking. If you love true Mexican breakfast, this is home. The best part is they have not changed, the food quality is top notch,and glad to see they weathered the pandemic. Your taste buds will thank you.. ”
“ Lolita’s is the best! Absolutely my favorite for breakfast. The tacos and breakfast plates are great. Portions are plentiful. They are frequently busy so there is sometimes a wait but the reward is worth it. The Migas gets high praise but I’m a big fan of the juevos rancheros. The breakfast tacos are my usual they offer them in the regular taco size and in a larger “elephante” size. Make sure you get the chips and salsa as well. Chip and salsa at breakfast? Of course! The chips are fresh and the salsa is a little warm (temperature) and has a great flavor. Lolita’s is also great for lunch whether you stick with breakfast favorite or you choose on of the combination plates or fajitas. I’m a big fan of the fajitas tacos. The shredded chicken tacos are a great choice as well. I wouldn’t be giving a full review if I didn’t mention their queso. It’s not your traditional Tex-mex queso and I mean that in a good way. It consist of their salsa with the same white cheese they use on their tacos melted into it. It’s wonderful and I have friends who would make a stop just for the queso. I’d also recommend the carne guisada. They have a Pepsi fountain machine as well as a cooler with coke products and drinks for kids. There is indoor seating as well as a front patio with a couple of picnic benches. Stop by, you’ll become a regular. ”
“ Five star meal at Lolita’s Waco, TX a local’s favorite for years! Beef burrito with cheese & avocado plus crispy taco dressed with lettuce tomato & cheese served with pico & salsa delicious. ”
