    I was a patron on Sunday, May 4th. Went with friends to enjoy the brunch menu. Arrived to an obnoxiously loud DJ set and a limited menu, that did not include the one item we wanted to enjoy. Cocktails were served in plastic cups. When I made my reservation, there should have been a notice about the drastic change in ambience, noise level, limited menu. I would have made reservations at another restaurant. Very disappointed.

    We loved our experience at Lolita’s! Our table was ready early. Vibes were great, food was AMAZING, and they gave my partner a free drink for his birthday!

    Arrived in time to enjoy our first round of drinks at happy hour pricing. Fun atmosphere but quite loud and difficult to talk at our table of 7.

    Delicious food. Fun atmosphere. Wish they were more flexible with creating a vegetarian friendly kids dish.

    Visited with my wife for dinner on 26APR. Esquites, queso fundido, and suadero tacos were all excellent which made my experience with the tinga de jamaica tacos very disappointing. These were very gritty and had hard pellets in them that the server confirmed were seeds that they try their best to remove. What I received, which was like eating sand, I assume is not the intended experience and I am sad that I didn't have the opportunity to see what they are like when properly prepared. What really bothered me is besides noting that they were seeds there did not seem to be ownership or concern (there was no apology or assurance that this is not what was intended) over the fact that the dish being served was not up to par. There is a world in which the customer service I received would have left me walking away feeling understood and okay, but unfortunately I just felt that the server was disinterested and did not especially care about the experience being provided. The item was ultimately taken off the check, again with no acknowledgement that something had gone wrong, which I do appreciate, but the customer service approach left me with an overall negative impression. A bad night and a bad set of circumstances I am sure, but one that does not leave me eager to return or recommend.

    Beautiful decor, great Taco Tuesday dinner but for the group, the big table and loud music made conversation difficult. Server and food were warm and wonderful! Accommodated allergies with grace.
