    Had a great Christmas Eve dinner with the family. Everything was excellent: the pork chop, ribeye, and salmon. The apple dessert was delicious.

    It was an amazing dinner! The food, ambiance, and service were on point. Our waiter, Brian, had wonderful suggestions, and the timing of the dishes coming out of the kitchen was perfect. Don't miss the ceviche with corn fritters or the pulpo. The cocktails are a wonderful addition to the meal. Wonderful restaurant and service made for a perfect evening. I will definitely be coming back.

    If you are looking for Argentinian cuisine, this is NOT the place to go. I wanted to have Argentinian cuisine for my birthday, First thing I asked as I walked in, Will I experience Argentinian cuisine and was told “For Sure” I ordered empanadas to start, awful food, bland flavors, not good. Chimichurri was parsley with oil , terrible. I order a tortilla de paps that never arrived. My gool with this review, which I don’t often do, is to save you the money and the disappointment.

    Service overall good. The ceviche mixto, Morcilla blood sausage, and filet mignon were delicious. The tables are very close together, so we could hear other people’s conversations. I received a free dessert for my birthday, which was a welcome surprise.

    We had reservations for a table for 5 on a busy Saturday night, and were seated right when we got there. The food and service was great, the ambiance was pleasant, and our server, Brian, was fantastic. We were there celebrating my wedding the night before and mine and my wife's birthdays the day after. They brought us over glasses of champagne to start and a couple of great desserts to close things out. We'll absolutely be back.

    This is an amazing restaurant! Me and my partner went for the first time and we loved everything about it. The food, the drinks, the service, the ambiance… I’m so happy we found a good Latin American fusion restaurant.

    From host to server we had the most amazing experience. Food was yummy. We ordered the Octopus in beans. It was perfect taste to the palette. Then came our pork chop with chimichurri sauce. Cooked perfectly!! The side of Cauliflower wasn’t your ordinary side dish, it’s so delicious and flavorful with a bit of sweet yet savory. For dessert we went for the churros. 2 chocolate dipping sauce was included. Our server was attentive and the host came by to check on us as well. This is my 5th time eating at Lolinda. Will be going back again!!
