Loli's Cafe

This little spot was so delicious!! The line was a little long but we got to the window pretty quickly! I even got to meet Lolis and her daughter! They were very kind! The picadillo loaded was our favorite 🤤

It's...ok. I feel like San Marcos residents have a different flavor palette. I grew up in San Angelo and the food is much better there. I keep trying these highly rated places and I'm routinely disappointed. The other place that people "love" is Herbert's and it's not anything special. I went twice to be sure I wasn't missing something and both times disappointed. I like that Loli's is drive thru and it has two lines which makes it very accessible and convenient. When exiting tho... there's a huge drop off that you need to manage carefully. Do not take your lowered car here. The ladies inside are nice and remind me of my Tias in Big Spring. They feel like family.

I absolutely love Loli's, my first time going here was a couple days ago and I had my dog with me, Dexter, so she gave him bacon! She also gave me a free breakfast taco because it was my first time there which was so sweet. The breakfast tacos alone are to die for! They are so big and so filling and the flavor is also just so yummy. If you go, you have to get the combo ranchero and the green salsa and a side order of their rice. I came back again today with my dog and she said "hola dexter!" - she remembered him and gave him extra bacon this time hahahaha!! I will be a loyal customer here and I'm very excited to try their lunch as well!! Thank you for the yummy food Lolis!

I don’t really do this but it’s really about time I leave a review because Loli’s is awesome!!!! Great tacos and lunch specials, great service super friendly and feels very personal. I always have my dog “Kyuubi” with me and they treat her like a princess. She’s getting all the bacon she wants sometimes even barbacoa, the staff is always smiles and spreading good vibes. I’m a person I always have special requests with my tacos and they never complain or even give me the feeling that they’re annoyed by my special order. This spot is def a must and I would be upset if YOU are reading this review and don’t go check it out after…. 😆 I’m speaking for the behalf of the whole Grass Chopper Landscaping crew when I say Loooooooooliiiiiiiiiii’s for the WIN 😍

I wish it wasn't so small and rundown looking. It was interesting to see it used to be a car wash, but it was a little weird and complicated to drive through. Great freaking tacos, though.

Today was my first visit after a Google search for breakfast tacos. This was hands-down the BEST choice I could have made. And I got a free taco on my first visit! Service was excellent, tacos were beyond perfection, and I cannot wait to get back for my next visit! :)

Loli’s is a San Marcos staple! The best tacos in town with the best service from the best group of ladies. When I bring my Shetland sheepdog with me and they see her in the back sea, they give her a whole side of bacon for free. Never disappointed with Loli’s - from flavor to price to convenience!!! Remember to tell them if you want to add a tip to your order (they deserve it so you should :)

Love this place, these people, these tacos and the salsa, but can't come as often as we used to with all the rising prices. I get it but I also don't have any raise in income to be able to keep coming. Will just have to enjoy the times we do go.

First timer. I have driven by this location many times even after having heard them say they made the best tacos. Today was special and I took the time to wait in line. I studied the menu online so I was ready to order even when the line moved so quickly! One basic breakfast taco and two fajita tacos-beef and chicken. Breakfast was as expected but the fajitas were superb! The pico was so very tasty and the guacamole was real! I definitely have arrived late at this scene!

Went here cause it's a San Marcos staple, but honestly it's just kinda okay. We were told the Lolita's Combo taco was their most popular, so we all got that. Each taco was $5 mainly beans and they all had the most burnt bacon I've ever tasted lol I had to pick out all the charred bacon since it was too hard to chew. Hoping that the other menu items are better. not really worth the 25mins we waited in line

We recently visited some friends in San Marcos and they highly recommended the breakfast tacos at this place. Trusting their food opinions we tried it and it was amazing! They recommended the Combo Ranchero and so we got that. It was tasty and all the components fit together nicely. The flour tortilla was also very good and I'm usually not a fan of flour tortillas since a lot of them can be gummy but this was perfect! With the added salsa that they gave it made a complete bite! The portion sizes for a taco are quite big and one was filling enough for me. I didn't get a picture as I was too excited but it's definitely worth checking out. We heard that their other stuff is good too but this is like the best breakfast taco in the area.

Ordered the egg, potato and bacon. It was freshly made, did not disappoint. Would definitely be returning.

Traveling today and wanted to try a new breakfast taco spot and Loli's was on list so we stopped by. It's 7:30 am so there was no line. I got a bacon and eggs (my normal) and hubby got the barbacola taco. We both thought they were ok compared to the others that we've had. The customer service was great and they got us out fast. My taco didn't have any seasonings at all. Hubby made a mess trying to eat his and drive. It's very juicy.

Wow! I have been by the location a number of times. Usually a long line and today I discovered why!! Que Rico! My breakfast tacos tasted like my grandma's homemade tacos, the service was fantastic and the ambiance...not so much because it's a drive-thru, but who cares when the tacos are this good!! Definitely a "must repeat" place! Way to go, Loli's!! Note: The corn tortillas did not disappoint and did not fall apart like Torchy's!

Haven't spent a lot of time in Texas, but when we do the family always wants to grab breakfast tacos somewhere. It's a wandering pilgrimage, like eating a brisket sandwich while perusing the jerky wall at a Buc-ee's gas station. The eats at Loli's cafe were the best breakfast tacos we've found. They have a two lane drive thru and a walk up window. Parking is a bit limited. The line was long when we got there, but it moved along quickly. The tacos range in price from three to five bucks and were a generous size packed with ingredients. The Combo Ranchero includes egg, bacon, beans, cheese, potatoes, and a ranchero sauce. So good. I'm not sure what they do to the bacon, maybe deep fry it? But the chunks of bacon are a crispy crunch that then melts away. The tacos aren't over stuffed with potatoes. Loli's may very well become our go to whenever we are in town visiting the fam. No need to keep checking out new places when the breakfast taco urge hits.

We were in the area and this place has a lot of positive reviews! Make sure you go early because the line gets super long! They have two drive thru lanes and you can park on the side and walk up to order. We loved trying all the different things in the menu. The California burrito is HUGE! It was as big as Jeff's face! Definitely Texas size! Our tacos were good and we enjoyed our visit! We took our food to the park to eat! We will come back and try more items on the menu!

San Marcos staple. Great tacos, love the ladies that work here. Go early if you want to stay in the drive thru. If you don't mind parking and to walk up and order you might get your order a bit faster.

I really don't want to give a 1 star because the people are so nice, but I'm struggling to find anything redeemable about the food. The burrito is a mess. For about $13 you get a 5 pound scoop of their ingredients on top of a tortilla. Yes it's more traditional to not wrap burritos in Mexico, but this is not possible to eat. It's a mess. You couldn't even differentiate the rice from the beans because they were the exact same consistency. The tortilla did have good chew to it, but the contents were all so bland. This would have been okay if the salsas could carry it the rest of the way, but the red tasted like water and the green didn't taste like anything. Not only did the meats lack any flavor, but they didn't even bother to add salt. It's possible we messed up and should have gotten breakfast tacos. But just based on the lunch tacos and especially the burrito, we have no intention of giving them a second chance.

Delicious generous breakfast tacos are a Bobcat tradition here at Loli's Cafe, across the street from the Texas State Campus. Their special recipe spicy red and green salsas, homemade tortillas and generous amounts of made-with-love and talent fillings have justifiably made this a go-to place for great breakfast tacos. Loli's operates 2 drive thru lanes and a walk-up window out of a former car wash customer service building. Yes, you park on the car wash stalls or pull through into where you used to vacuum out the inside of your car, unless you want to wait in the drive through lanes, which regularly back up 6-8+ cars onto Aquarena Springs drive. A BRILLIANT and TASTE re-use if an old obsolete car wash, which could have been an eyesore but is now a treat for the soul. 5 worth the wait Loli-cious stars!

Awesome tacos. Awesome service. But a bit of a line bc they are so good so have time to wait a little. Worth the wait. And they even gave our dog some yummy bacon. So thoughtful!!

Me and my roommate loved coming here atleast once a week to get breakfast tacos and now it's one of our staples! The service is quick and amazing and the food is even better. The chorizo has the perfect level of spice!

Great tacos and a staple of San Marcos. I got the migas tacos and a breakfast taco. Salsa was also good.

The best breakfast tacos on earth and delicious thick bacon like no other worth the wait bring your dog and they will give them bacon too

Looking for a good breakfast before we left town. Stumbled upon Loli's. Got breakfast burritos with salsa. The bacon was amazing and crispy, just how I like it. I wish they had Mexican coffee, the normal coffee was fine. Service was good and food came out quick.

The tacos were delicious and the salsa was good as well . The size was perfect. Highly recommend this place for a quick bite to eat

Grew up on the legendary Flores tacos in Dripping Springs and never thought those combos could be touched. The combo ranchero at Loli's is prime! Reasonable prices and large tacos 10/10

This is a drive up not a restaurant. Dissapointing. Was a long line of cars so the food must be good but we did not go as we were looking for a sit down restaurant. Poor description to what it is unless you see the photo. Unfortunately we drove here and found that out.

Long story short this place isn't great it is freaking amazing. I've tried a few spots in San Marcos when it comes to tacos and breakfast tacos and Loli's is definitely a #1 contender. They only do drive thru or walk up but they move the line super quick and they do accept card. This was my first go around and honestly my only issue is I wish i could have tried more of the menu! Their carne guisada is so tasty and authentic and has me excited to try their barbacoa next time around. The beans and rice were on point and their salsa verde almost reminded me of being back home. Their prices are also pretty reasonable and they offer a variety of drinks. Very good spot to grab lunch to-go or get a filling breakfast!

Fantastic little taco joint! Came through San Marcos by chance and happened upon this place. First off, I absolutely loved the double sided drive thru lanes, what a cute and efficient idea. The menu was perfect, not too many choices, not too little, just right. I absolutely loved the specialties they had for breakfast tacos, especially the Migas con Todo and the Ranchero Combo. They were both so well made and just the perfect amount of spice so that my gringo tastebuds were given that perfect mixture of spicy and cheesy. My wife ordered the lunch guisada taco and oooweee was that finger licking good. The meat was so tender, so juicy, so robust in flavor that I regretted not ordering one myself. Little note for those of you who think it's too messy, well get over it. Presentation does not equal great flavor in this scenario. For heavens sake get down and dirty in your food, no one's judging when your food comes from Loli's Cafe.

First time trying Loli's Cafe. The service was great! The food looks really pretty but if you are expecting traditional Elotes this is not it. Overall the meal was good but not what I was expecting.

My absolute favorite breakfast place in the whole world. I wouldn't trade this place for any other breakfast place in existence. I look forward to starting every day with a delicious combo and coffee every morning. They are the nicest people ever and service is very fast and food always fresh. Much love for this place.

The tacos are always fresh and delicious! I usually go on weekday mornings before work and it's busy but worth the wait.

Can't say enough good things about this place! Amazing food for starters, but what really stood out was the service! 5 start service. Felt like my own mom was taking my order so kind and sweet! Definitely recommend

Tacos are always loaded up. Very nice ladies, if you're in a rush best thing to do would be to walk up to the togo window because their drive thru is always packed.

WOW!! Excellent breakfast tacos. I got the barbacoa taco and the carne guisada taco and I loved them both. The service was polite friendly professional and efficient. The place is basically a taco stand so go find your ambiance elsewhere perhaps in your car or a park as you enjoy those scrumptious tacos!! Awesome job shout out to Loli's Cafe.

My favorite taco stand !!!! We come down to the auction house and always make sure to stop . Staff friendly . Drive through Weird but otherwise thumbs up .

A delicious staple of San Marcos!! The business is family owned and the food tastes like home. Staff is friendly every time, tacos are always to die for, and perfect salsa to match. Locals love Loli's for a reason! Can't recommend this place enough, I stop by every chance I get (maybe a little too often haha).

THE BEST breakfast tacos around! They get busy in the mornings, but always move quickly and efficiently. Their bacon is top notch and the green salsa is perfectly spicy. Highly recommend.

The girls that run this stand are so kind & they always hook it up! These tacos are the BEST breakfast tacos in San Marcos, hands down. Definitely try the Combo Ranchero or the Picadillo. Don't forget the green sauce & Mexican Coke!

First time trying Loli's. The bacon, potato and egg taco was bussin!! The Carne Guisada tacos were flavorful and really good too...just would have preferred more gravy, but I highly recommend this place and we will be back on our next road trip!

Came for breakfast tacos and they didn't even remotely get the order right. Got home and was disappointed. It looks like they just gave us any random tacos they found

If your looking for delicious authentic mexican food, this is the place! We tried a variety of tacos and every single one was amazing. You can tell they take time to make their tortillas which just adds to the overall taste. Definitely will be back!

I skipped my hotel breakfast to give these tacos a try. I was so excited to bring them back and boy was I disappointed. Two of my tacos were wrong, I got potato and bacon, not what I ordered. The bacon was so hard and the potatoes were huge chunks, maybe they're known for that but these tacos are not worth the long wait in line. Only thing we all loved was the salsa verde.

I've been coming to Loli's for 6 years and have never had a negative experience. Serve is consistently incredible and food is consistently delicious! It's really hard trying any other taco place for me now!

Excellent service and the Tex max tacos are so delicious. Worthy of its hype and definitely worth stopping by on your visit to Austin Texas. We stopped by on our way to tubing and it was perfect. Recommend the breakfast taco with rancheros and carnitas tacos

Considering how many times I've driven by this place I can't believe I'm just finally giving it a try. From comparing menu/prices from yelp and when I drove through , they've definitely skyrocketed their prices on everything (I guess because of how busy they always are .) The spot in which this business is located is really inconvenient considering the everyday like pushes cars out into the street who are waiting to order . The tacos themselves were pretty good, and I really enjoyed the 1 included salsa. However , for over $3 a taco with only 2-3 ingredients I feel like there's much easier accessible places with better prices and quality to go to.

Delicious tacos! No wonder there is always a line (don't worry, it moves quickly) - this place is the bomb. Highly recommend the corn tortillas. Oh! And the employees are the absolute sweetest. We'll continue to swing by any time we're in SM.

Disappointed with food. There was so much hype so I waited in the long line but not worth it. Just a regular tacos in my opinion. Even got the special, but the bacon was really bad.

We got the Picadillo loaded taco and the lolitas combo one which had meaty bacon, egg, potato, bean and cheese. I also ordered a cup of the salsa verde which was a little spicier than the red sauce. Super good and highly recommend! The tortillas are also homemade. They made us the salsa verde on the spot. Very polite and super nice. Bring cash for tips if you pay with card.

We got the Lolis combo tacos that have bean potato egg cheese and "bacon" BUT they put ham chunks instead of bacon. And no ham and bacon do not taste the same!!

Way over priced. Bacon was burnt. Messy tacos. Long line that takes forever to get through. Be careful when you leave there is a nasty drop leaving the drive thru.

Absolutely the best breakfast taco place in central TX very good prices and good portion sizes. Definitely recommend.

I've gotten Loli's tacos a few times, and I've had the same problem each time. There's almost as much outside of the taco as there is inside of the taco. While the tacos are good, I don't think they're worth the up charge compared to places like Jo's, Chepo's or Casa Choi. Those places seem to put way more effort into their tacos, and they have a larger selection of ingredients. Since this has been a recurring problem with Loli's, I'm going to stick to my go to with Jo's.

I've never been here before and I passed by and saw the line and had time to spare so I decided to stop expecting it to be really good food was good but I did not like the cheese at all it tasted super cheap and fake like the slices just shredded but on the bright side the ladies at Loli's are super con nice and pretty definitely worth giving it a shot maybe not on game day LOL

Best breakfast tacos order the Lolita's combo breakfast tacos with verde sauce soooo very good...

I think I made a rookie mistake. I ordered the California Burrito with chicken and it was the size of a small child. I don't know how anyone finishes that but I barely made a dent in it! I however, really did want to finish it because oh my gosh it was oh so good! Everything is super fresh from the vegetables to the salsa to the tortillas! They are famous for their breakfast tacos and I'm honestly scared to try them in fear that I will be back every morning and throw the whole diet away. So if you plan on going to Loli's (which you should) know that this is strictly takeout. There's a drive thru and walk up window. There's no seating so be prepared to eat in your car or take it home. Also, the ladies who work here are super sweet! So be ready for some great food and some great service!

Been going here almost weekly for over a decade. The Loli's Combo is probably the best breakfast taco I've ever had. The bacon is huge chunks, not strips, and the red salsa is delicious. Definitely busy on the weekends, but you can call ahead and walk up to pick up your order. I do it every weekend, and I'm in & out in less than 5 minutes. Wonderful staff too!

Loli's is a great place to get tacos! My toddler especially loves it because every time we go they give him a juice pouch and a two pack of oreo cookies.
