Absolutely loved this place! The service was amazing from start to finish—everyone was so welcoming, friendly, and genuinely pleasant. The food was just as incredible, making it a perfect spot for both lunch or dinner. I especially loved the chicken mole enchiladas—they were absolutely delicious and hands-down my favorite dish. You can really tell they put care into both the food and the experience. I’ll definitely be coming back! Their drinks are also great!

We had an amazing dining experience, and a big part of it was thanks to our waiter, Jean Carlos. The food was excellent. perfectly cooked steak, delicious sides, and a shrimp dish that was rich, creamy, and full of flavor. Everything was beautifully presented and tasted just as good as it looked. Jean Carlos provided outstanding service throughout the entire meal. He was friendly, attentive, and very knowledgeable about the menu, always making sure we were comfortable and enjoying ourselves. His positive attitude and professionalism truly elevated the experience. The warm atmosphere, great food, and exceptional service made this visit unforgettable. Highly recommended, and we will definitely be back!

Stopped in for lunch during a visit. Ambience 10/10 its beautiful, plush, vibrant. So cute. Drinks were good, food just okay. Chicken flautas 3/5 (no cheese, crema on side, due to friends dairy intolerance)- nice crunch, good amount of filling. Lacked flavor. Birria tacos 3.5 lacked flavor, I'm missing the boldness of the peppers/ spice. The consumne was just like a light generic beef broth. Cooked well and good amount of filling, they don't skimp on meat. Rice & beans - 2/5- rice or nice and fluffy + enjoyed the addition of corn. But overall lacked flavor. Brisket burrito -4.5 Drinks - like that they make syrups in house Lolita marg -5/5 don't let the carcao fool you its not the blue syrupy stuff You get in bars. Lolita salt rim is sooo good and brings it together and made it a five star rating. Paloma- 3/5 Ky/Kai provided great service. Very knowledgeable of the menu, helpful with suggestions and accommodating options that didn't include dairy. Recommend stopping for a happy hour if That's a thing. Food is not worth paying full price which is really tough to say because they service, ambiance/music made me want to love it so bad. Personally I'd only return for drinks and maybe chips/dip.

The lush décor, leafy green accents, and soft lighting create a tropical yet sophisticated vibe. The menu features flavorful dishes like ceviche tostadas and expertly crafted tacos, each plated beautifully and bursting with freshness. The cocktail list is equally impressive—creative, balanced, and artfully presented. Service is top-notch, with General Manager Amanda ensuring every detail is perfect.

My boyfriend and I went to Lolita today and it was amazing! We were greeted right off the bat by a kind server! We ordered from their happy hour menu that included three different cocktails (including a margarita) which were great! The Daiquiri was super strong and very good! Margarita was perfect and very refreshing! We ordered all three different tacos besides the cod (I personally don’t love cod) but I think the Birria tacos were our favorite! The Al pastor and beef was also great, as a tie for second! I also recommend having the guacamole!! We did end up having two to three different servers and had a hard time knowing who to ask when ordering more. But overall, we liked both servers and Richard was great!! Make sure you ask for him if he is working! He was very attentive and polite!! We will definitely be back for another happy hour!!
