Reviews For Dory Luz

A hidden gem off the beaten path yet close to the town's center. The owner is extremely friendly and welcoming. She speaks little english, but we managed to understand each other despite my terrible spanish. The food is made fresh and is absolutely delicious. It was the best meal I had in Mexico. I visited on a Tuesday morning and ordered the special, Sopes. The food is cheap and the location is great. The outdoor seating area is like an oasis. It is a beautiful garden with flowering plants and birds chirping and flitting about. Succulents adorn the simple wood tables. Light music plays on a portable speaker. If you are visiting Loreto, make sure to visit Dory Luz. You will not be disappointed with this lovely cafe!

I went looking for tortillas hecho a mano, they were delicious. But the taco fillings were also wonderful. I would go here every day if I was staying longer!

Cannot recommend this place enough! We came back to Loreto just to eat here, sadly they're closed on Sundays so we were only able to sneak in one extra meal here instead of two :( Super cute outdoor restaurant under a palapa in a garden. Menu is simple but authentic Mexican food for cheap prices (something near impossible to find in Loreto). Tacos are 25, 3 burritos for 60, waffles and fruit for 60, or they also do a daily special with beans for 80. Coffee is very yummy and organic for 20 and they give every table free chips and salsa!! Food is delicious and fresh tasting. This place deserves to be much more popular than it is, spend 1/4 what you would elsewhere in town and get way better food!!

What a gem of a find for breakfast/lunch. We stumbled across Dory Luz and it looked so shady and welcoming we wandered in. The food was simple and delicious! They owner is a lovely woman you can tell the food is made with love. My chilaquilles were delicious and hubby had three different tacos. All wonderful our favorite was the sauteed poblano strips taco. Amazing flavor. We highly recommend stopping here when in Loreto.

Wow! This family-run restaurant is really special. I ordered 3 different tacos and all 3 were exceptional. Each one was very unique and full of flavour. The corn tortillas were thicker and served warm which I loved. The food tastes like its make with love.

We went here for breakfast today & it was excellent. Perfect breakfast/lunch spot. If you blink you’ll miss it, it is caddy corner from the oxxo store. We had the fresh fruit plate & two tacos. The salsa was excellent with a hint of heat.
