I went here for the first time earlier this month and loved it. The food, music and ambiance - Excellent! Best tres leche cake I ever had. I always tell my friends. Great place to go on a date or hang with family or friends . I look forward to going back.

It was delicious. You are welcome with some nachos and a nice salsa. The Shrimp ceviche was amazing, the tacos, the calamari and all the food overall was really good!!!

I absolutely loved the ambiance!! I didn't have a reservation but I was still able to grab a table for two! Let me start off by saying that this place has GREAT drinks !! I definitely would recommend for a quick bite ( apps & drinks ) Appetizer: cheese dip with chorizo ( was delicious, just wish they gave us more tortillas) I only was given 5 tortillas and some were still cold/hard Main course: tacos de birria y tacos de pollo alambre The tacos were just " okay" , the consomé for the birria was lacking flavor and was just extremely greasy. the tacos de pollo alambre was just like grilled chicken in a tortilla nothing else to it. ( we didn't finish the tacos ) Drinks : Lolatini and Pina picante The drinks are soooo good , I ordered (2) of the pina picante ! Service : 5/5 our waiter was super attentive! Food : 3/5 Drinks: 5/5 Ambience : 5/5

Very dim and dark--you'll be struggling to see your company. Or, if that's your goal, you can just relax and not mind who is sitting in front/next to you, depending on the number of drinks you get! The place gets super loud--this is not where you go for soul-searching conversations. This is where you go to get drunk, dance, and chill out. Staff are friendly and efficient. Food is brought out fast. Portions are generous for the price. $26 Steak fajitas arrived sizzling hot on a cast iron pan--great for keeping the meat hot. $26 house special shrimp & crabmeat enchiladas were delicious--so creamy [yaaay to tons of cheese and sauce!] and had a good amount of shrimp and crab meat. Recommend! A DJ comes after 9pm on a Saturday and starts spinning beats. A few people started dancing bachata and salsa. Nice vibe! Vallet parking available.

MUST TRY, By far the best Mexican food and atmosphere I’ve ever been too, and I date a Mexican girl. I wish I didn’t live an hour away but I try to come atleast twice a year.

I just had my event last Saturday and everything was perfect! We celebrated my daughter’s first birthday and baptism, our reservation was held on the second floor. Our server Nelson was super helpful, friendly and provided a professional service which made me and my guests feel welcomed. This was my first time eating at Lolita’s (big risk) BUT SO WORTH IT! For the same reason I appreciate Nelson's service he was so patient with me. As appetizers we had guacamole and queso fundido, guacamole was super fresh and on point with the lemon and salt. Then as entrees I chose Shrimp al ajillo, poblano chicken and steak fajitas. Steak fajitas were my favorites! so juicy and well done.Drinks were good, I had red sangria and it was well flavored I asked my guests about their drinks and they said they were delicious!SERVICE WAS EXCELLENT!FOOD WAS EXCELLENT!DRINKS WERE EXCELLENT!ESTABLISHMENT WAS EXCELLENT!I couldn't have chosen a better place to host my daughter's celebration.

Good food. Good service. Good atmosphere. The seafood paella is very good. Pitcher of mojito was good for 3 people. Empanadas and flautas were very good. Churros and espresso after dinner was very delightful.

The place is a beautiful restaurant it has a great atmosphere, but the service especially at the bar is by far mediocre to say the least. It takes them 25min to make a drink, food takes about an hour. The service here is awful.

Attention to detail restaurant!!! Communication between reservation person and manager for a 20 person event, was excellent. Had a personalized menu included with birthday person's name, without asking them. Good atmosphere. Food and service from staff was above and beyond, always paying attention if we needed anything else. Highly recommended!
