Mexican Cuisine
If you enjoy Taco Tuesday, then you have officially fallen in love with the Mexican Food. The main grain of Mexican cuisine is maize. Also known as corn, maize is grown for the past 9000 years after the crop was discovered by the people in Mayan civilization. Mexican empire flourished when they started growing beans, tomatoes, chili pepper, sweet potato and cactus. Till this date these ingredients are used in cooking authentic Mexican dishes and drinks.
Great use of spices, fresh chili pepper dishes like fajitas, tortilla chips, corn chips, salsa, chimichangas, burritos, nachos and quesadillas are invented in America. But when you are looking for authentic Mexican food then you must find a restaurant in the city that serves Rajas con Queso, Garbanzo in a Guajillo Chile Sauce, Pork Filled Chiles Rellenos, Chiles en Nogada, Molcajete Salsa, Pico de Gallo and Frijoles de la Olla. An eye-opening fact – Mexican don't like their food hot. They use fresh chili and other spices to create a flavor that lingers in your mouth.
Mexican food is great for those who are Gluten Intolerant as they use Corn instead of wheat in most of their dishes. Also, you can easily find many beans based Mexican dishes. Another dish which didn't get similar glory as tacos or nachos is the Mexican hot chocolate. If you love something hot on a chilly day, then go for Mexican Hot Chocolate. On merry days, you can enjoy the authentic Mexican Drinks like Tequila, Mezcal, Tecuí, Sotol, Bacanora, Charanda, Posh O Pox, Puebla and Pulque. Mexican Cuisine is for people who enjoy strong drinks and hearty meals.

The sauce on the enchiladas looked and tasted canned. Flavorless rice and beans were on the side. This restaurant is super noisy. They were nice enough to bring a birthday treat, but the fried ice cream tasted like it had been fried in old oil. They accommodated our large group but one drink order came 20 minutes after it was ordered. I have to wonder if the people rating this place over two stars had too many drinks or are related to the owners. Another telling sign was the all white crowd. Come to El Caminos in Sheboygan for better food!

Very good Mexican food... The best I've found in Madison. The chips and salsa were especially good and the waiter was efficient and friendly. Would definitely recommend.

It's good to be clean, but the smell of bleach overpowered any food aromas. Bland Mexican food for the Midwestern palate. Good salsa. Excellent margarita made up for any food deficit, though. Friendly service and reasonable prices.

I have been to 2 locations, Fish Hatchery and Lien, and both times was uninterested in finishing my meal. Stale tortillas, bad cheese, bland sauces... go to Taqueria El Pastor or Taqueria Guadalajara for tastier, more authentic meals. Heck, you can do slightly better just down the road at Casa del Sol.

Always good food. Fast service. Good selection. Friendly wait staff. Easy to get to location.

It should be said this review is only for their chips and salsa which always hit the spot. They aren't supremely special or anything just consistently tasty. I do t really like anything on their menu so I usually order rice and beans leave a big tip and eat lots of chips and salsa! Oh and margaritas if I'm not driving!
(4)Karen C.
Great Guacamole, made table-side!! Staff is always efficient and friendly. Disappointed they removed shrimp and mushroom quesadillas from menu
(4)Anthony K.
One of the best if not THE BEST mexican restaurant that I have found since relocating to Madison. I may even go as far as saying the best I have had even in California for the past 4 years. Great prices and even better food. Servers are always on top of their game.

I love me some Laredo's. First, the bad: the chips and salsa are pretty disappointing. They look amazing and smell so good, but just aren't that great. The tacos are solid, all of them. Really well done and not too complex But, here's what is amazing-the Farmer's Quesadilla and the Tortitas. The Tortitas are barbecued meat and queso fresca on beautiful pretzel buns. Amazingly delicious. So good. The Farmer's Quesadilla is spinach, black beans, corn, (maybe onions), and cheese. It's served with guac, sour cream, and queso. All of which are fantastic on it.

Ok fajitas Sonora. A lot of grizzled meat (plenty of uneatable fat and grizzle) smothered in BBQ sauce. Too sweet. Not what I expected. Not like traditional fajitas. Waiter was not attentive and struggled to keep us with our needs. And we are low maintenance. Not sure how this place stays in business.
(2)Pedro I.
Dissappointed. So I've gone there a couple, three times. I have not been impressed each time, but decided to give it another chance, you never know... Well, now I do. Ordered the Fajitas Texanas, they were pretty bland even after adding salt and adding plenty of salsa (asked for the hot one, as always). The kicker for me though, was being charged 60 cents for the extra tortillas. They gave 3 at a time. C'mon! Restaurant mark ups? I get it for the liquor, but the tortillas? Really?

Not your typical restaurant visit, so possibly not a typical review! We had worked hard all day landscaping and really only wanted to celebrate a bit over some margaritas. Didn't want to go out for dinner and planned on just picking up some carry out from Qdoba's down the street (though my hubby doesn't care for rice burritos), so we called in an order of chicken enchiladas and shredded beef enchiladas on our way to Great Dane. We walked in and saw Laredo's had a nice bar, and so of course we had margaritas there...ordered a whole pitcher as we knew that was the cheapest option since we planned on having at least a couple each! The chips and salsa showed up immediately and the hostess/waitress/bartender brought our enchiladas out before our margaritas were ready. Okay, check. Set those aside for when we get home. We then proceeded to thoroughly enjoy about four medium sized margaritas each (for about $19, which is a little over $2 for a very delicious and perfect tequila portioned drink!!). We were worried that the enchiladas might not be enough food so we threw in an order of burritos, one chicken/one shredded beef, for about $7 total. They packed chips and salsa with each bag of food, so we got a bag with the enchiladas and another with the burritos. We walked out very happy in that we probably spent less on food than the rice-packed burritos at the Qrobus down the street (6 enchiladas = $13, 2 burritos = $7). Now the taste test, as we used to visit Laredo's on Whitney for lunch often, but my hubby always found them boring and that same-old-Mexican food. We should have stopped ordering at the enchiladas. Why - Because they were three very large enchiladas and more than enough for a meal!! We had the burritos the next night and they were both huge...and delicious, even being a day old!!! What can I say, sometimes a place just exceeds your expectations. My hubby wants to go back because he has a crush on that hostess/waitress/bartender lady as well. Yeah, she was cute, and she knew her stuff. Not the best Mexican food in the world, and maybe five stars is overboard, but on one of those nights when it all clicked and was exactly (and more) than we hoped - bravo!

Nope-not authentic, pre-prepared, the chips are way too greasy and flavorless, and every entree tastes the same as every other entree. I went there with a party of five.l tasted everyone's entree. Tasted like we were all eating the same thing. I have not had authentic Mexican anywhere in Madison. I'm told by my friend from Mexico, that yellow cheese is not used in Mexican food, nor are black olives.
(2)Darryl A.
Fast and greasy. Taste is OK but don't expect high quality, you will get full here.

A piece of advise do not complain about your food at Laredos. I just left the Laredo's on Fish Hatchery Rd and was stunned by the treatment that my husband and I received. I ordered Carne Asada and I couldn't cut through the meat much less chew it. The entire portion of meat was nothing but pure gristle. I felt like I was chewing leather. I asked the waiter over to explained that the portion was inedible. He said and I quote "What do you want me to do about it". I repeated myself because I thought he must of misunderstood. He shrugged and I was surprised because I wasn't expecting such a response and so I stammered "um am" may speak to the manager. His response was, "he's not here he already left. It was six p.m. I then asked to speak to the person in charge. He left the table and I saw him go over to speak a fellow waiter and he turned around and gave us the dirtiest look. I was more flabbergasted by the fact that they seemed offended that I didn't like the food. My husband and I have eaten at this location several times and I can say that in general we are very generous tippers and have been to this same waiter and we certainly didn't expect to treated in this way. Anyway to sum up my disappointment, in their "generosity" they gave us a $4.00 discount off our bill. More laughable is that when he brought our bill he asked if I wanted a box! LOL!! We will never go back, not because the food was atrocious, but because of the treatment after the fact. Some establishments just don't understand that 9 times out of 10 patrons are willing to over look bad food but never bad service

Good authentic food. Fresh!

I was very disappointed with the churro "dessert". The description in the menu stated that it would be "fruit-filled", and served with a "chocolate dipping sauce". The dish arrived at our table last night and my husband and I just stared at in blankly for a second, no words, since it wasn't at all what we expected, and it was completely different than the menu description. There was absolutely no explanation given, but the churro had no fruit filling whatsoever (it was like a plain gas station churro) and no chocolate dipping sauce, just a drizzling of caramel. It tasted ok... But how can you say one thing in the menu and give something else? Probably not the best practice.

We have been there twice and have been impressed both times. By far the best mexican in madison. We used to thoroughly enjoy a southwestern restaurant called Pasquals but their quality of food at Hillsdale has declined immensely over the past year. Laredo is always consistent, efficient and tasty!!

This is my second try at Laredo's, and I'll admit that it is better than the first. My first time also happened to be my first mexican restaurant in Wisconsin, period. I had high expectations coming from Kansas, the land of the mexican restaurants, and I was let down. Upon having tried probably 10 mexican restaurants in the Madison area, I guess this one isn't so bad afterall. It is your run of the mill mexican food. I'd say this warrants 3 stars. Spend the extra 2 bucks for a soda here. This is one of those places where the water tastes like it came out of a tin can. This place is pretty empty both times I've been, and the food comes super fast. (I get easy bean burritos though) They have good service overall. I guess I'll be back in the future. Sigh

I had combination 18 which was fair at best. My wife had the taco salad and she rates it slightly higher. I'm not impressed enough to come back. Service was slow, but with only two other tables I'm not sure why.

I was on a business trip to Madison, WI...and the group there invited me to lunch. Laredo's is a solid Tex-Mex restaurant...they even had one of my all time favorites, Huevos con Chorizo. I ordered my fav...and it had a bit of an off flavor, probably just the Chorizo that they used. It did not have a lot of heat to the sausage, but, overall, was enjoyable. Service, at lunch, was pretty good...although the check took a few extra minutes.
(3)Nina O.
Wide menu, fast friendly service, easy to get in and out at lunch. It's not fancy by any stretch, a little run down to be honest, but it gets the job done.
(3)Katie H.
Love the steak tacos - prepared like they do on Maxwell Street, Chicago. Fiesta Quesadilla is my other stand-by (grilled chicken and shrimp, mushrooms, tomatoes, onions and sliced avocado). Original blended margarita is the best in town!
(5)Holly S.
I go out quite a bit. I also judge restaurants on peticular dishes. This place had the worst cheese burrito ever. It was made of white cheese? The same cheese they used for their queso blanco. Which wasn't that bad but MUCH to creamy for anything to be in a burrito. I guess I expect an orange cheese or at least a good cheese that is melty and hot. Not lukewarm and almost solid. Rice and beans were what they were. Didn't have high hopes and they didn't dash them. I just feel like it could have been so much better. I would never go back. Downvote.
(1)Mark R.
I go here sometimes for work lunch, reluctantly. The food is typical large restaurant American/Mexican - refried beans, rice, and iceberg lettuce and diced tomato "salad" with everything. Prices and portions are fine but, overall, just not impressed.
(2)Edward V.
Quick lunches and decent prices. The tortillas always seem stale though, either in a burrito or taco. Guac is great! Ambiance is a bit to be desired. The floor is concrete and it gets annoyingly loud if you stop in after 6pm.
(3)Kelly F.
Decent food. Good size portions. Very inexpensive. Fast service. The food is pretty good...not the best Mexican food you'll ever have, but solid. I've never been disappointed. You get what you pay for, if you're looking for upscale food, go to Eldorado Grill. If you are looking for fast cheap pretty good food, go to Laredos. Don't forget to order a margarita! The tableside guacamole is kind of cool to watch and tasty.
