Best Mexican Food in Laredo

Smoky BBQ Meets Authentic Mexican Food
Welcome to Livi's Mexicue

Welcome to Livi's Mexicue

Where bold Texas BBQ and classic Mexican cooking come together in one place. We bring smoky meats, rich spices, and fresh ingredients to every plate. Our team works hard to serve food that brings people together for lunch, dinner, or special moments with family and friends.

Livi's Mexicue is known throughout Laredo for its slow-smoked barbacoa — praised for its bold smoky flavor without the excess grease. Using cherry and applewoods, every cut of meat is smoked low and slow to perfection. The brisket is consistently rated the best in the area — salty, peppery, and melts in your mouth.

What our guests are saying

I came here months ago but had to leave a review this time around because I tried their breakfast tacos! I had a Machacado a la mexicana and bacon con huevo tacos and they were so delicious. I forgot to ask for them to be maiz but regardless they were amazing!! My boyfriend had a brisket taco, bacon and egg, and a ham and egg taco and he loved it

Customer service is amazing, very welcoming and professional. I ordered Brisket chipotle Alfredo Pasta and it was really delicious, hubby got a Dino rib plate with 2 potato salads also Mac and cheese and let me say it’s been one of the best potato salads I’ve ever tried, super creamy Mac and cheese. I highly recommend this spot.
