We were told this was the place to go for Mexican food while in Puerto Rico. As soon as we arrived, there was a line all the way out the door, but they were able to get us in pretty quickly. The restaurant is pretty big and was totally packed. Even though they were slammed our server came right over and took our order. We each ordered a combo plate, and everything was do good! The only thing I noticed that they didn't do that most Mexican restaurants in the US do is chips and salsa, but it was all right because everything else was really good. read more

We came here for our first anniversary dinner :) we're about to see the bio bay and see some glowing water and glowing bugs. We got burritos. The wet special way. Parking was for some reason so easy. Big group of men sat next to us. Ordered two shots of tequila to their table. God bless em. read more

When you need a break from Puerto Rican cuisine head here for some great Mexican food. We split the spicy wings which were crispy but not very spicy. The steak fajitas were a huge platter of tasty meat, onions and peppers with 6 flour tortillas. Plenty to share although I wish we had more of the tasty guacamole . The atmosphere is festive and there was even a private party with a live mariachi band. The help was friendly and the valet parking was an added perk. read more

This place is so good! I have been to Puerto Rico 3 times and have gone here every time. The nachos spoil you so much, and they should all be like that moving forward. I also got to try a lemon margarita, and as a lemon lover, it was delicious! read more

Consistently great food. We know because we went there twice and would have gone three if we were in Puerto Rico long enough. Best Mexican food you will find in PR. Service was fast and polite. Perfect environment! We got pico and chips, fajitas, chimichangas (wet and normal are both so good), and nachos. read more

Great Mexican food spot near Luquillo / El Yunque. Valet parking option. The menu is a little confusing and I'm still not fully sure between the burrito super and super supreme. The guacamole is more of an avocado salsa with chunks of avocado in an acidic sauce, not a mash, but it's delicious. Had the chicken fajita burrito - the sauce it's covered in is amazing. I could drink that by the gallon. The chips and salsa are good - the salsa is very spicy and delicious! Very reasonably priced. Super casual inside. Service was good but there was a little bit of a language issue and she seemed frazzled by how busy the restaurant was and kept needing to come back. read more

We decided to try Mexican food while in Puerto Rico to see if it was better than what's available to us back home. We were NOT disappointed. Service was great, our waitress was super sweet and treated us like family. The fajitas are delicious, pico de gallo was fresh and so good. You do not get chips and salsa like you do in the US restaurants but we didn't mind. The portions were big enough to satisfy. read more

Our family went here last night at the recommend of a family we met at the beach. The place was packed! Parking was a little tricky, but there are workers outside that can help you find a spot. We didn't have to wait very long before being seated. Our waiter was extremely friendly and allowed us to use our Spanish with him even if it took us a little longer because we are language learners. The drinks and food came out pretty quickly and it was delicious. The portions were good and the price was reasonable for the amount of food served. We had no complaints. We ordered dessert--tres leches and mango passion fruit cheesecake. Yum! The only complaint I had was that it was extremely noisy. It could be that we were a party of six seated near other loud parties...but it was so loud that it was hard to hear our waiter and each other at times. read more

I remember this restaurant in a different during the mid 80's. When our oldest wanted go to with his friends for spring break we offered a trip to PR. One of our first stops was Momma's. Food of the 80's was just as good 25 years later. I so look to going back! read more

Coming from Pennsylvania, this was great Mexican food. The place was packed, but we were seated almost immediately. Our food arrived quickly and it as delicious . I enjoyed a super supreme burrito with refried beans, quac, and sour cream . Perfect amount. My man had the carnitas which were also very good. We shared a Mexican rice and we were quite full. Along with the pina colada and excellent margarita, we had no room for deserts. Our waitress Alexandra was very helpful and attentive. They have valet, and the gentleman was most courteous and welcoming. Mucho gracias. read more

Lolita's Mexican Restaurant, Hwy 3, Luquillo, Puerto Rico. Lolita's is one of those delightful surprises that makes a vacation truly wonderful. It is difficult to describe. It's more than the varied menu, more than the authentic Mexican cuisine, more than the large portions, more than the beautiful décor and the beautiful murals on every wall, more than the very efficient staff, more than the hands-on manager keeping an eye over everything... oh, and the food. It is truly the best anywhere. I had the Chicken Fajitas Dinner Plate and thoroughly enjoyed it; others in my party were similarly satisfied with their orders. Lolita's is busy. And sometimes noisy. By the time we left, the line to get in was long. This restaurant is the very best and it obviously is not a secret. Hope you someday- soon!- get to enjoy it! read more

So I have no idea why we stopped for Mexican food in Puerto Rico of all places. The food wasn't bad, but wasn't particularly good either. I ordered the super nachos which I was too hungry to snap a pick of and an Al pastor taco. The nachos were OK, not too expensive so I won't complain, but the portion size was quite small and there wasn't much meat like you'd get in LA/Mexico on nachos. Coming from LA, my expectations for Al pastor tacos are pretty high. Again, not bad, but they weren't worth 2.75(crazy high for a taco btw) I think it's a solid place to go with the family if y'all are in a pinch and don't know what to eat. There's a decent selection of kid's dishes, your chicken strips, burgers etc and the food isn't crazy expensive. The customer service is also really great. The servers were very attentive and kind, as you'd expect in PR. TLDR: Solid prices. Definitely overrated, tho. read more

We just finished the bioluminescent bay night kayaking tour and were looking for a spot to recharge for the night. Unfortunately, Lolita's didn't answer their phone, so we had to order at the restaurant and wait a standard time for takeout. The staff were all super friendly and let us wait in our car and gave us a ring when everything was ready. After reading the reviews, we were excited to taste "authentic" Mexican food and went with: two orders of fish tacos; a trifecta of meat tacos (res, carnitas, and al pastor); a quesadilla; and ultra nachos (chicken) to share. The highlights of the meal were definitely the (fried) fish tacos -- they gave a lot of fish and it had just the right amount of avocado, mayo, and onions. The nachos were pretty standard, but nothing to seek out, though the hot sauce was good. Unfortunately, everything else kind of fell flat -- the quesadilla was just alright, but each of the tacos were a bit inedible. Regardless of the meat choice, it seemed their method of choice was to have everything in a ground meat form and season it according to what type of taco it was. While the tortillas were good (we got maiz), the meat was just...not. Tl;dr: All in all, an okay spot to stop by, but nothing to "WOW" you. Get the fish tacos, and avoid the tacos/quesadillas. read more

I had a wonderful time at this restaurant tonight. I went with my mother and my wife for my mom's 60th birthday. This is the first dinner in Puerto Rico after a long day hiking in El Yunque. We were very impressed by the service. They were very attentive to detail and very friendly. From the beginning, we were greeted by kind staff who offered valet parking. Our server Jaileen was also wonderful. This place is excellent for vegetarian food. We had vegetarian enchiladas, nachos, and chimichangas. The server was knowledgeable about how to customize the food to make it vegetarian. For example, she knew that the refried beans did not have lard. They also had soy meat. The drinks were refreshing as well. We had a piña colada and fresh guava juice. We would highly recommend this for anyone who wants to have a nice dinner in Puerto Rico. read more

Food was great but service could have been slightly better. I think with them being so busy they are not able to accommodate the people and their needs. We stopped on our way to the kayak tour in Fajardo which is perfect because it's on the way and no detour needed. Margs were delicious get the frozen mango!! read more

Hmmmm would I come back here again? YES!! Solely because the margarita was super delicious, well made and cheap! The margarita didn't have ice in it but it was made with the right amount of tequila. Hubby and I shared a chips and guacamole which was a little disappointing because the chips tasted generic and the guacamole was not out of this world, it was as if they didn't even try to make good guacamole. My in laws had a burrito that was huge and thick so I definitely want to try that next time. They come here a lot and always order that so I guess it's a must. Parking seems to be an issue here so give yourself time. The food came out super fast and the staff is super friendly and cool. Would I come back? YES! read more

I wish this restaurant was in the US. Best Mexican food anywhere. I would fly to PR just to eat here every week if I could afford. The best are the nachos. Individual prepared with all the fixing. Prices are reasonable and the drinks are great. Always recommend. Love the valet parking because it's tough to park in the little strip mall. Hopefully be back soon. read more

Cute Mexican restaurant, everyone was super nice, we had the guac & chips to start, would not recommend, guac was very watery and tasteless, small amount of chips, definitely not what I'm used to. But the entrees were all good, we had the chicken flautas, chicken fajita and chicken burritos. The beers and mixed drinks were also reasonably priced read more

Our group ordered super burritos, nachos with pico de gallo, fish ceviche, chimichanga, quesadillas, and the xanco. So glad we stopped here to eat and felt super stuffed with goodness after. read more

This place has a lot of seating options. The food was just average. The crispy taco was pretty tasteless, and so was the tostada.usually Mexican places have amazing salsas to provide taste, but this was disappointing in that aspect. The salsa was boring, no salt or sour or spice. The sauce if the burrito was probably the best, the burrito itself again was boring with not much going on. The carrots were hard to eat. Glad they had vegetarian options though read more

The food was okay. The Quac was horrible very watery and they literally give you about 10 chips for the hole table. Definitely NOT worth it. Service very slow. read more

Food was decent. The fajitas and queso were good but our server wasn't pleasant. We were all very cheerful as a group going on for Father's Day, but our server didn't seem happy and didn't provide a good experience for us. After eating I went to the bathroom and as I was washing my hands an employee walked out without even washing his hands. read more

Great food! The best Mexican food around. The ultimate nachos are definitely worth trying. Easily my favorite place to eat on my stay in Puerto Rico. read more

I've tried several "Mexican" restaurants in Puerto Rico, and this is by far my favorite one. The ambience gives you a traditional Mexican dining experience. You can always tell a lot about a Mexican restaurant by the way their chips and salsa taste. The salsa is very addicting and spicy after a few sips. I've tried the fajitas plate and it is just as good as what they make in San Diego California. I tried the Ranchero Fish and it was super flavorful. read more

Uno de los mejores restaurantes mexicanos. Excelente servicio. Ambiente seguro y para toda la familia. Recomendado 100%

Ordered chips and guac and was beyond ecstatic to hear they had avocados. We haven't been able to have any guac the last 5 days since we arrived here in PR. The chips weren't so fresh at all and the guac was just okay, very bland. The mango juice was okay but not great, was hoping for something as yummy as the Looza mango juice, it wasn't. The green tomatillo house salsa is good and spicy. My hubby got the 3 fish taco dinner and I got the bean tostada with soy meat and the cheese quesadilla with soy meat with the red sauce. The rice with the dinner was just okay, bland. The soy meat taco and the cheese enchilada were both good. The bean tostada was just okay, nothing special and the hard corn shell wasn't very hard or crispy as I like it. My hubby and I really enjoyed the fish taco and the flavors came together nicely with the avocado and cream topping and the crispness of the fish breading. I would get the fish, soy taco and the enchilada again for sure. read more

Nice vegetarian options ...amazing queso! Great service and clean! Chicken tacos were moist and flavorful.

Yummy Mexican food- vegetarian options- great service. The Agua de Jamaica (hibiscus tea punch) is amazing. Guac and chips delicious. Covid protocols in place with temp check and hand spray, capacity limits and outdoor dining. Valet parking is helpful. Highly recommend! read more

This is by far the BEST mexican food I have ever had...and I have been to Mexico! Have been coming to this restaurant for over 10yrs and keep coming back every chance I get. The three dishes I can always vouch for 100% are: Chicken Burrito Wet with everything (I ask for rice on the side), the letter D (taco, tostada and enchilada- chicken) and the Churrasco. Their Parcha frappe is also on point. And to top it off, the Tierrita Dulce...Vanilla or Chocolate. They are both to die for! They have outside seating and I encourage you to take advantage of nice days out to sit outside :) read more

This place is a heaven in this area especially for Vegetarians. We tried Soya Tacos, Veg Fajita and Veg Chilaquiles(must try). Everything was fresh and tasted delicious. I would definitely recommend this place. read more

This place is packed. There was a line. Valet parking tip what you want. I'm trying to understand why it's so packed. The service was not that great for my table. Then the food was not good, bland, no flavor. The waiter never even asked how we liked the food when picking up pretty much full plates. It was not even picture worthy food. I ordered tacos two were rolled up with lettuce and tomato thrown on top. One was open flat. Can make better food at home. Avoid it. The review amount and ratings (Yelp and google) really had my expectations high and I believe they were all highly wrong. I did not feel like it was authentic food like other had stated. I usually don't like leaving bad reviews but I had to be honest. Others were sloppin up there places I just didn't understand. Also my friend barely had sour cream on her food asked for more and got charged $1.75 it was like a tablespoon extra. Shouldn't cost that much extra. Smh read more

On our usual hunt for tacos, this was one of the first places that popped up in luquillo! To say this was a disappointment would be an understatement. Babe ordered Pollo a la Plancha and the chicken was boiled, it was super dry and flavorless! I ordered shrimp tacos, and as a taco connoisseur I was so disappointed my feelings were hurt. The shrimp looked like crumbs seasoned with some sort of red sauce with iceberg lettuce and tomatoes. Shortly after our disastrous meal we both suffered from a stomachache! Lolita my dear, we will not be returning! I'm still baffled at how you all have 4stars! read more

If you find yourself near Luquillo or on the way to Fajardo, this is obligated pit stop for an authentic Mexican meal. A large menu at very reasonable prices and with a large attentive staff, it is the perfect place to get far away from the many terrible Mexican chain places. The margaritas range from large to gigantic, so be sure to appoint a designated driver! read more
