Loredo's Tortillería — Restaurant in Edinburg

After eating their tacos for a couple of days and today, having their barbacoa. It is time for the review. I personally like the traditional style: croc pot, overnight cook, wake up in the morning, warm up tortillas, and get the salsa ready style. And Loredo’s makes that happen, hands down. It takes me back to my young days when my mom would shred the barbacoa, warms the tortillas hechas a mano, and calls us for breakfast. (Then we go play outside till sundown).

Their barbacoa is a winner with my family. Not super greasy but just right, corn tortillas are soft and the salsa, is good and spicy (red, good. green, makes the hairs on my neck stand up, lol). After eating, we decided that Loredo’s will now be our go-to for barbacoa.

Moving on to breakfast tacos. We have been looking for a good fast breakfast taco place near our home. Our good to place, which will remain unnamed, had started to lag a bit. Mind you, they would cook large batches and store them in warming containers till you order your tacos. Then proceed to make the tacos from the batch. Loredo’s takes a different approach. They make them right when you order them. Which is a major plus in my book. And there is no waiting around for them to be made. It may be 2 or 3 minutes tops, and you are out the door, with your taco and salsas. Fast and efficient. Not to mention, really good! Their raw flour tortillas are really good. We also got some of their raw tortillas for 4th of July festivities along with the breakfast tacos. They cook really well on the plancha and come out quickly. An also must have for BBQs’

Mr. Manny is very courteous and professional. The best part, he remembers your name and welcomes you when he sees you. That is a huge plus in any business.

Overall, I highly recommend them for your breakfast tacos and barbacoa needs. I have yet to try their lunch plates, but reassure that will change soon. 5...

Update November 8, 2024 - We have been here for breakfast tacos a few times and they are great. We have also bought both flour and corn tortillas which were both delicious. Well yesterday we decided to try their lunch plates. They didn’t disappoint! Both plates were very delicious, cheese enchiladas, rice, beans, jalapeño and crackers. The sauce reminded me of my grandmother’s and mom’s homemade enchilada sauce. The 3 sopes were layered with refried beans, chopped carne asada and top with lettuce and tomatoes. Came with hot sauce and sour cream. And the rice was flaky and well seasoned. We will continue to come back for fantastic food and great customer service.

Update July 2024 - Excellent place to get breakfast tacos and extras for the day! The service was amazing and friendly! They explained about their two different homemade salsas and gave us one of each for our tacos. We also bought their homemade tortilla chips and from Mexico company, cookies and mini empanadas, which were a little extra but fantastic tasting and fresh due to their packaging. We will be back to try their other breakfast tacos and/or lunch plates. Their homemade flour tortillas were good, thin which didn’t overwhelm the flavor of the taco ingredients. The barbacoa was delicious! Please note this is a take out place; they are fairly fast in taking your order and filling it. You can also call your order in...

I picked up a lunch plate on April 8th, 2025 and found a cockroach or cockroach egg in my food. I called the location and they apologized and refunded me my money. People need to be aware that there’s possibly a health violation and unsanitary practices at this establishment. I went back the following day for a cash refund and they were still serving people knowing that they just had a complaint about cockroaches in the food. You would think they would close down temporarily to fumigate, clean up and throw out any and all food but I guess their income is more important than keeping their customers safe. They were adamant that they don’t have a cockroach problem yet they never questioned or doubted my claims, they weren’t even interested in seeing the picture to make sure of what was found...
