I have been wanting to try Lola's for years. The little pink taquerua on Abby & Belmont. I just always went to Robertitos or Don Tacha instead. Service: They were nice. I drove in the wrong way and had to turn myself around. Ambiance: It's in a sketchier area with loose dogs so I would prefer to do a drive through. No inside seating. Food: Asada taco- good- small size, came with cabbage, cilantro, onion Chile Verde taco- better than the asada one, juict, came with cabbage, cilantro, onion. Rice & Beans are flavorful. I like them better than Robertitos and just as much as Don Tacha. I like the cheese on the beans. Chili was in a small plastic bag which was tied so tight, I had to bite the tip. Wasn't spicy at all. I prefer my salsas in a container. read more

I used to go at least once a week, but one day about 2 months ago I went and the tortilla taste was off and went back and this one lady was mad I told her about the tortilla. She wasn't allowing me to get a Refund because according to her the money was gonna come out of her paycheck. After 10 mins of asking and re asking I told her to give me something else, she still refused. I told her go ahead and call someone all I'm asking was to get a refund it's not like I'm going to keep the tacos plus my refund .so Annoying they finally agreed to give me something else so I got a sope, yeah I'm not going back.. read more

Tacos aren't too bad for the price (I would rate them 3 stars based on tacos alone) but that's not the issue here. *someone scammed me here taking my card info* I'm pretty confident that someone used my debit card here & scammed me !!! This was about a week ago. At this time my everyday card transactions was my corner store & neighborhood autozone. Been that way for years. On this day I had to go to Harley Davidsons, so I stopped there afterwards. I walked up and ordered and the first red flag was these young girls working had my card for about 5-7 mins. (Probably slightly exaggerated a lil but way longer than if I was driving through). They successfully charged my debit card $103 thru some cashapp purchase/sending receipt & then attempted to spend $160 at Pizza Hut online & $63 on 5guys.. Be careful read more

Asada torta was great and the price was very affordable I definitely recommend for lunch

This place is to die for. Best mom and pop Mexican restaurant in Fresno! They have the best prices also. They are super friendly and amazing service. They never disappoint. So much flavor your taste buds will thank you read more

Can't complain when you are paying 1.89$ for two tacos. You get what you pay for tiny corn tortillas and a small serving of meat per taco. Good flavor just drove through the drive thru do to the area and location. Salsa has no kick ask for jalapeños they are not fresh they are can jalapeños. read more

Lola's Ricos Tacos - Crunchy tacos - Mexican Near Me - Fresno, California

See all

These tacos remind me of the way Rico's tacos on Ventura used to be back in the day. I've been here about10 times and only one time I was disappointed. Highly recommend for cheap tasty tasty tacos read more

The menu on the front of the building advertised a bean and cheese burrito for $3.89. I ordered a bean and cheese burrito and was charged $6.11. when asked about the price the landy taking my order said the prices on the menu at the front of the building are very old. None are correct any more. When questioned further she said they are not able to update the menu at the front of the building. I asked if they have a paper version of the menu or something I can look at that has the correct prices. She said no. This feels like false advertising read more

I thought I'd give them a try because I like Al Rico's tacos on Ventura and Hazelwood. So I said why not try 2/$1.85 tacos why not. F""""""g nastiest Mexican food I ever had in my life. My kids wouldn't even eat the quesadilla wtf ! So I tasted it. The tortilla was hard as a brick and the cheese tasted rancid. Are You are you guys using the same pot of rice day after day for the whole week or what that rice in my carne asada burrito was so smooshy like the texture of pudding. And no flavor grissily ass meat. Never again . read more

Drove thru for some tacos. Not on the best side of town and building looks kinda way out-dated but let me tell you, so good!!! Just the right amount of food portion on the plate. Came out hot and fresh. Prices are budgeted well. They offer outdoor seating, it was way too hot just get it to go! read more

I do not understand how this crap is still open and operating. Tacos were soggy, tortilla tasted old I had more cabbage that meat. Meet was dry. Salsa felt like it was out of a bottle, windows were broken at the "restaurant", owner is obsessed more on the color pink than actually giving good quality food. You can go a block down for $.99 tacos with way better food quality this crap needs to get the hell out of our neighborhood and close up for good! read more

This place is great. Found it on Yelp, and haven't looked back since. Lola's embodies all the elements a great Mexican street food stand SHOULD embody: #1. Dirty. Does this place look dirtier than fuck? Absolutely. -- check. #2. Located in a questionable area of the city. Is this in an area of town I'd like to "chillax" at after sunset? Fuck no. -- check. #3. Cash only. Is the food here the one and only reason you'll ever have to venture and find an ATM? Absolutely. -- check. #4. Terrible paint job. Is the establishment painted a color that would absolutely be last on your list of color options? Fuck yes. It's Pink. -- check. #5. English is a second language (ESL). Do you have to speak VERY slow, loud, and articulate in order for your food to come out correct? You can bet on it. -- check. People, the above is a checklist of what to look for when finding a reputable street taco vendor. And as you just read, Lola's has it all. If you're at a Mexican restaurant that doesn't fulfill at least 4 of the 5, just go to Taco Bell and get yourself a fucking 'Tortada' or some other lame, recycled, excuse Taco Bell uses to validate and justify a "new" menu item. It's HARD to find really good street tacos, trust me -- I've tried at least a 100 different varieties through the years. Lola's is not the hands-down BEST I've ever had, but they are definitely some of the better ones for the Fresno area. There's a nice kick in the salsa that hits you initially, but doesn't last too long or strong to the point where you don't enjoy your food. They also have 'crispy tacos' that are fried, and more like a tostada, as the usual taco ingredients are placed on top of the flat, fried, and oh-so-crunchy tortilla, rather than than the regular soft tortilla that you'd come to expect from a 'street taco.' I absolutely love these. Does my diet? Absolutely not. Also, this place is dirt cheap. You can get two tacos for a buck-50 people. The price is great, because as Vahan's review says, order-up at least six ...because each taco can be devoured in just 2 - 3 bites. Anyways, if you need a fix for authentic, scrumptious street tacos -- definitely come here and go crazy because this is my current 'spot' for just that. Thanks for not letting me down once again Yelp -- the one reason my monthly gym membership is a waste. read more

Here's what you should do right now: Go to Lola's and order a combination plate with 3 tacos (asada, with onions, cilantro and salsa). It will change you. The BEST tacos in the world. I'm not kidding. The BEST. read more

WOW this food is hella cheap. I got a combo plate with two carne asada tacos for $3.49!!!!! No joke. The taco itself is pretty good. I've had better, but it's freakin' under $4! The rice and beans were good too. Although the beans were a tad salty. You seriously can not beat these prices. Will definitely have to try the tamales next time. oh yeah, CASH ONLY! read more

I won't be back Ordered Chili Verde burrito with only meat, cheese, beans inside with chili verde on top (wet). There was no hint of green verde sauce inside or on top and 4 pieces of meat in which 1 was all fat. No plastic forks available. read more

We were told of this place by a friend. Can't miss it as it's this large pink structure on the southwest corner of Blackstone and Belmont. When you can get two tacos for just $1.50, this is really a cheap eat. My wife and I tried almost all of their tacos (beef, chicken, pork) but avoided the less traditional meats (tongue). Got a horchata drink and ate our tacos there. They have an outdoor seating area that is shaded. To be clear, this was our first time having these type of tacos. Basically they are two small corn tortillas (about four inches in diameter) with meat and toppings on them. There's something in the salsa that had a serious kick to it. We thought they were all good. We would come back again. Nice find. read more

I've been coming here for years. Every time is so good. Tacos are awesome and cheap price. The nachos sooo good and piled high. Best horchata Quick service and everyone that works there are sooo nice. read more

The apotheosis of "street taco stand", there are not many better places to ingloriously stuff your face with mouth watering tacos than this pink palace of dive cuisine. Sure, they recently changed their menu, which now means you'll probably have to pay $5.00 to feel full, but it's still exactly what a comfort food place should be: an odd combination of feeling thrilled and defiled at the same time. Incredibly fast and friendly service, that, like those old In-N-Out Burgers, somehow manages to fit an entire restaurant into a kitchen the size of a coat closet. If you're going to complain about anything at Lola's, you're missing the point. read more

Definitely eat here!!!!! This is my go to taco shop. I live right down the street and for the price you can't beat em. Tacos are awesome as are tortas. I haven't branched out much aside from that. But I love this place. Highly recommend. Also they are amazingly friendly. They always treat me so well. I enjoy giving them my business because they are so kind. read more

I was a little bit skeptical of this place since it's only $1.85 for two tacos! But my friend who went to school in Mexico highly recommended it so I had to try. I got for tacos, all carne Asada, and they got chips guacamole and salsa. Unfortunately I had to sit in a bit of traffic before I can get to my tacos. But I have to admit I'm really impressed with the salsa! It's spicy and it's flavorful without being too salty. The meat was OK. The guacamole was meh. But overall I would definitely come again just for that salsa. P.s. This is really is a to go place only. read more

Lola's Ricos Tacos - Just waiting here - Mexican Near Me - Fresno, California

Since living in the neighborhood, Lola's Rico Taco has been our default for last-minute, budget-friendly, but deliciously satisfying option. If we could, we'd eat here all the time, but what's the fun in that? It super convenient that they take orders by phone, and will have your order ready upon arrival. If you take a look at their menu, you'll see at the bottom right that they do not let their food sit around and heated by lamps. The food is always fresh. Whether you're a taco connoisseur or a hungry person on a budget, this is place to go. read more

So I gave this place a try at the recommendation of my 19 year old daughter who is in college. When she was home on her last visit she must have eaten here 3 or 4 times and raved about how delicious the asada tacos were. After I bit into my first Taco it all came rushing back to me. She is a college student so cheap food is where her mindset is and the fact that she only has lettuce on her cheeseburger only reminds me that she hasn't fully develop taste buds. The lady at the front counter was very pleasant and yes the food was cheap but that is not a condition of my eating out. I would rather spend 10 times the amount of money and have something delicious then waste my money on crap which this was literally crap. read more

Tried this place out again and its greatly improved. I will take Lola's over Yarelis or Robertitos any day. Cheaper and has good flavor

What a waste! Came here for two tacos a burrito and torta. Had no flavor and so much rice! Creasy old meat. Yes it is cheap and fast but I would have rather have McDonalds and that's coming from someone who doesn't eat McDonald's. Never again will I waste any time coming here this place is trash. read more

I've searched all over California for a better taco. I have failed. These are the best tacos I've ever had. The meat is soaked in flavorful juices and the salsa is excellent. AND its super cheap. I usually order 4 tacos for just over 3 bucks. It looks kind of sketchy if you drive by it but it's DEFINITELY worth checking out. read more

It may not be fancy but these tacos are both inexpensive and delicious! I'm coming from San Diego, so my Mexican food expectations are extremely high. Lolas Rico Tacos definitely pass the bar. Go here!!! read more

Slow service, mediocre tacos and burritos, kinda rude people working there. Kinda dirty little shack. Better off going to Tower Market for better tacos and burritos. read more

Good food, slooooow service. They also got my order wrong! It shouldn't take that long to make two tiny tacos and a cheese quesadilla. I've been here a handful of times before in 2013. The good was food but they were a lot faster :( read more

Authentic Mexican food, affordable. Ignore the area and try the food. Menudo is homemade.

$1.00 to use my debit card! Outrageous!!! So I tried using cash, and they wouldn't accept my $20 with the corner ripped. I don't care how good the food is, poor customer service. The gal at the window was so rude about it. Couldn't speak with her supervisor due to a language barrier. read more

If I could give no stars at all I would. The place is a dump. It's an old weinerschnitzel building. A couple of the front windows are boarded off. We can see a lady cooking through the other window but she never came to help us. After 5 mins of waiting we started contemplating on going thru the drive thru or just leaving. Finally a man came up and took our order. Some what friendly. Our food was shit! My rice was dry and no flavor. My beans were ehhhh... and omg my tacos!! I got one asada taco and one chicken. Both of my tacos was a puddle of grease and my asada straight up taste like dog food! I know what it taste like because I was a goody kid who use to eat dog food. It straight up taste like dog food out of a can. NO LIE!!! THE ONE GOOD THING THAT I CAN SAY ABOUT THIS PLACE IS THAT THEY FOLLOW THE STRAW LAWS. which for me I dont agree with at all. If someone dont want a straw all they have to do is say they dont want one. Why should employees have to walk back and forth just to grab a straw. Ridiculousness!! read more

This place sucks! They charge for foil to take food to go! Who does that! The service is horrible, and the cool is really rude! 4 tacos took 10 minutes to make. Taco Bell is better! read more

Best. Tacos. Ever. This place is a pink triangle building, so whatever comes out, you know has to be good. Greasy, spicy, lovely little things. read more

Made my second visit there yesterday. I repeated my order from last time, the asada burrito, large. This time I went light on the salsa. $4.20 out the door, (as if there was one). Very flavorful meat, tender and plentiful. If you're ever in the area and thinking burger, fuggedaboutit. You'll come out cheaper, faster and more satisfied here. Support the locals, forget the chains. read more

tacos are actually pretty good. just make sure you check your receipt, there's one man at the blackstone location that always overcharges. huge signs all over that say tacos 2/$1.85. he always rings up 4 single tacos at $1.10 each. guests shouldn't have to remind someone who works there how to ring something up. read more

4.65 + tax for 2 tacos, rice, beans, and fountain drink. Do you want cheap and mediocre? Come here. Do you want good? Maybe it's good for you too. Do you want great? Try Don Pepe's or somewhere else. read more

small place, it takes awhile to get your food, but the tacos and the chimichanga is worth it!

I love the variety of food from Lola's, we can find really good food there, and cheap, fast and friendly service... 2 tacos for $1.50, It's a excelent choice to try them out, I like the burritos and enchilada combo plate, they're delicious, you should try them out. All their food is good and tasty... I don't have any complain about this place. Simply is a really good food for a cheap price... read more
