Lolita’s Cantina & Tequila Bar

FAIL

Is Lolita’s Cantina & Tequila Bar still in business? Tried to go there twice this week (Wed around 12:30pm and Friday at 6:30pm) and the doors are locked and sign states that they are closed.
The website states that their hours of operation are:
Restaurant Hours:
Sunday — Thursday — 11:30am-10pm
Friday — Saturday — 11:30am-10pm
But clearly they are not following the posted hours. :(

Can I really review a place where I spent less than 30 minutes and had just one drink? Well, when then drink was tasty, the bartender was very nice, and the décor was surprising (er, not what I was expecting), I suppose I can and am.
We stopped by Lolita’s late one weeknight for a drink. The place was pretty empty and there wasn’t really anything going on. I have to admit that the poor reviews had kept me away. Upon walking in, it was not at all what I was expecting. It was small-​ish with a very modern and hip décor. Black tablecloths covered the high tops in the bar area. (Tablecloths on bar tables? Neato!) The bar itself was trendy and inviting. Though, admittedly, the atmosphere was a bit lacking as there was just nothing happening.
The bartender welcomed us immediately. After asking for drink menus, we were informed that they were going through a renovation or whatever and didn’t have a drink menu at the moment. However, he did list off several tasty sounding margaritas and mojitos. He had my heart at «coconut margarita». And that coconut margarita was delicious!
To further outdo himself, avocado ice cream was mentioned by our group during conversation. The bartender then disappeared and re-​appeared with a complimentary bowl of just such ice cream. Now that is some nice service.
It’s pretty hard to really judge the place just based on one drink, but I was certainly enticed enough to want to come back here earlier in the evening for a full experience with food and everything.

What to do on a rainy Sunday afternoon … I know let’s go to Town Square and watch a movie… grab a bite to eat. Hence the reason we ended up at Lolita’s.
We were the only people in there which you would think would mean fast service. Not so much!
We ordered a couple of drinks and a couple of appetizer’s … I don’t have anything negative to say about the food other then it was meh!
We ordered the taquito’s and nacho’s… I am not a cook by any stretch of the imagination and I could have made a better meal!
We left the establishment less then impressed, probably won’t be doing an encore visit.

Not quite what I had in mind, although when I saw the words, «Contemporary Mexican» outside that should have set me straight.
The chips, salsa and bean dip were very good although we could have used some more salsa and dip to finish the chips.
We each had a house margarita, ehhh, not too good, syrupy sweet taste. I had to wait for the ice to melt in mine first.
I ordered the shrimp burrito…$ 14 for an ala carte burrito? It was okay, small for the price. GF had some enchiladas, same thing, not a lot on the plate for the price.
Overall the place just felt sort of weird, we won’t be back.

«If you can’t say anything nice… come sit next to me because I’m thinking much worse.» My friend said this while we were having dinner at Lolita’s and I thought it fitting for this review.
Food: Awful | Service: Awful | Atmosphere: OK … I guess
I’ll start with the service by saying that our waitress did warn us that this was her first week so I won’t trash her in this review.
The food is the biggest issue I have with Lolita’s. I decided to try the street tacos. Tacos being my favorite food. I got 3 different tacos: Carne Asada, Pork and Ahi Tuna. The pork was slightly better than the other two but overall this food is incredibly bland and not at all what I expect from a Mexican restaurant in the Southwest. Authentic my tookus. Salt is an amazing spice Lolita’s, even a little will really bring out the flavor in your food. Even Roberto’s carne asada is better. Even Chipotle’s pork is better. The server did manage to find some really hot, hot sauce for me. That made the tacos slightly more enjoyable. I know I’m white, but I like a lot of heat.
If you actually know and enjoy Mexican food, you will not like Lolita’s. If you think Olive Garden is the pinnacle of Italian food then you might really enjoy Lolita’s take on Mexican.

This review is based on happy hour and appetizers.
I had never been to Lolita’s before, but was there because of a Rock ‘n Roll wine tasting event. After sampling the wine, my friend and I decided to grab a bite to eat. We entered the main dining area and were immediately seated. Our server, Aidin, approached us and recommended that we try their happy hour menu since we still had 30 minutes left.
While we waited on our order we got chips, bean dip and salsa. I thought the salsa was ok, but the black bean dip and chips were great. We ended up ordering the Mini Tacos and Dynamite Beef Taquitos. The tacos were truly «mini» but delicious! And we ordered a second plate. The taquitos were also really good and came with a few dipping sauces.
Honestly, I am a little surprised to see how low the ratings are for Lolita’s (I didn’t look at them before I went.) Our waiter was great, the service was fast, and the atmosphere was fun. Overall the food was great and the happy hour pricing made it worthwhile.

Ok… so I’m torn on this place… it’s Good in some regards and NOT in others. And while I’d like to go back because our bartender was awesome… I’m not sure that I will.
Sat at the bar last night to have a drink and dinner. So, I can only vouch for the bar service portion of the place.
The Good:
— Bartenders are super friendly … busy but friendly and very accomodating
— Marc the bartender is AWESOME!
— The Street Tacos… really tasty… the BEST one we had was the Ensenada style fish taco… Get it! The fish is juicy and tender… the beer batter is super light and crispy
— Complimentary chips, salsa and black bean dip… the chips were hot, crunch and had just the right amount of salt
The Not-​So-​Good:
— They don’t …repeat… don’t… have a drink menu. UM… hello… don’t you have any specialty margaritas that we can read about instead of having to grill the bartender about what’s good?
— Red Sangria tasted like fruit punch… no fruit floating in it and I couldn’t taste the wine
— We got there during Happy Hour time… but NO ONE… told us about it… we overheard that bartenders talking about it and the different prices for drinks during that time… but were we told so that we could take advantage? Nope.
— Cadillac Margarita is (as we found out by looking at the check) not part of Happy Hour specials… and while it was presented nicely… didn’t taste like a Cadillac… nor was it served with the Grand Marnier shot on the side… which is my favorite part
— Ceviche… ‘eh’… it was ok… we got the sampler for $ 12… don’t waste your money on it… get the Street Tacos
— I think they were short a bartender and a cocktail waitress because Marc was crazy busy

One star for food and one for their awesome bartender Emmanuel who redeemed the offensive service I got here. I’ve came here twice and both times Emmanuel was working the bar-​so friendly and personable! He’s just an all around nice guy, likes to make sure everyone’s having a good time. If I could’ve taken the tip back from our waiter and given it to him, I would’ve. He gave us more service in the 8 minutes we were at the bar than our «waiter» did in the 45 minutes we were at our table.
I get it, not everyone likes their job every day. I don’t like my job every single day! But when dealing with customers you pretend to like your job and don’t make them feel like their presence is a burden. Our waiter didn’t get that memo and his inattentiveness bordered on neglect. He came to our table three times, once to take our drink orders, food orders and then to bring the check. The way he asked if we wanted the check basically said «I want you to leave now.» The busser came by more often than he did to see if we needed anything.
This place isn’t worth the time if you’re coming from out of your way. If you choose to go for the simple fact that yard house is the cluster that it usually is, sit at the bar!

I was hesitant about coming here because of all the bad reviews but it was so close to the movie theater so I risked it. It was a risk that cost me a fulfilling dinner!
My husband ordered the Carne Asada like usual. It was easy breezy until it came to my order. I wanted to try their Coconut Calamari… it sounded good. I tried to place my order and the waitress said they don’t serve it anymore. I’m adaptable so I ordered the Street Fish Tacos… the waitress comes back and said «We ran out of all seafood as of yesterday». I was irritated that they had nothing I wanted so I settled on the Short Rib Street Tacos. I noticed in other reviews (Holly C’s) that they received free chips and salsa. We sure didn’t …I was thinking did they run out of that too!
My Short Rib Tacos were really salty I couldn’t finish it so I gave it to my husband. I needed a lot of water to get the salt taste out of my mouth but my water was never refilled so I drank some of my husband’s soda. He gave me his rice while I was still waiting on my side of rice I ended up getting the rice later. The rice is good if it wasn’t for the rice I would have left starving.
I was still hungry so we decided to get some dessert. I wasn’t happy with my chocolate dessert because it tasted really bland. I switched it with my husband’s Tres Leche cake. It looked like cheese cake but it was better than what I was having.
It was overall a disappointing experience. I also thought it would be really cool inside because their sign is soo cute. The décor lacks imagination.

Mixed reviews for sure. I’ve been here a few times, for various events and the only thing that has remained constant is BAD SERVICE. Why would someone invest so much money to open a restaurant and then ruin it by hiring a bunch of idiots, who are Sloooooow and don’t give a shit. It baffles me.
Alot of people on here have dissed the décor, but honestly I don’t care about what it looks like if the food and service were good.
Most of the food has been too spicy for me, but there are a couple of dishes that I LOVE (hence the 2 starts versus 1)
The melted cheese and chorizo appetizer is delish along with the soft tortillas they serve it with. And the Lolitas Rice is a very good blend of rice and beans. The little bean dip they serve with the chips is good too.
as for the drinks, hard to say. last time I went they were out of both ice tea and lemondade in the middle of the day. The margaritas i’ve had there have only been OK, nothing special.
the last time we went there was a party of 12. they added 18% tip to our bill, which was good for the lazy slow waitress since we would have left her only a lump of coal.
I honnestly hope they get it together, because the location is great. Step it up people before you loose your investment due to an uncaring staff.

I was a little scared to try this place, given the star rating. But it’s actually quite good.
My friends and I went to see a movie and they wanted Mexican food and margaritas beforehand. It’s very close to the Rave theater so it is super convenient.
The design of the place is actually kind of strange. I guess they are striving for the nightclub vibe but it doesn’t really work at 6pm. You have to walk through a weird maze of stairs and ramps to get to your table. I could see my party from far away but could not figure out how to get to them. The hostess was nice and led the way.
Once you get to the table, oh boy. Hot chips, great salsa, free hot bean dip. Happy hour was still going on (4−8pm) which was so nice. Because of my work, I always seem to miss the normal happy hour window.
We shared an order of guacamole, which was really, really good. And I got the carne asada burrito topped with pasilla chile sauce. OMG, so tasty! Just the way I like burritos — with beans, rice, sour cream, guacamole, cheese, salsa. All shoved in there with some great carne asada.
The margaritas were ok — nothing to write home about. At $ 5 a piece at happy hour prices, I guess I thought they’d be better. But there is all you can drink margaritas from 9−10pm on Fridays! Maybe after 6 or 7 margaritas I would change my tune. Or not. But it just wasn’t gonna happen that night.
Service was great. Our server kept the hot chips refilled and was very attentive. At one point, our server was helping another table so we ordered more drinks from the person bussing our table. The busser took our order graciously and got the drinks. Afterward, the server came over to confirm we got all our drinks and actually overheard (and remembered) what we ordered from the busser while he was helping another table. Spooky.
I’ll definitely be back to try more of their food. Maybe during a time when the «night club» scene is going on and there are «hologram dancers.» What the hell is that anyway? Like Jem and the Holograms?

Happy hour 4−8pm and 10pm-​midnight. At least, that’s what the bartender said. Even he wasn’t sure and had to check with another bartender. It also doesn’t appear on my GoTime Happy Hours app, so I’ll just have to take their word for it.
That’s the thing about this place. I’m a little unsure about it. The bartenders seem friendly enough. During happy hour, it’s half price drinks, but they were unclear if it’s everything or just well drinks or perhaps certain brands. I ended up ordering a Long Island, which was deemed to be happy hour qualified. The nice thing is that he served it in a pint beer glass, so I definitely got my $ 5 worth.
I didn’t stay too long. I was there for a birthday get-​together. I had my Long Island and left. This place doesn’t seem to get a lot of traffic, but I certainly wouldn’t rule it out. If you happen to be here during happy hour, it’s a good deal. I also noticed that they have a decent beer selection on tap.

Met a colleague for lunch here this past week. It was my first time visiting the place. Located on the 2^nd floor across from the Rave Movie Theater and opposite Cadillac Ranch, Lolita’s is in a prime location of Town Square.
They serve complimentary Chips, Salsa, and Black Bean Dip. I’m not a fan of Black Beans, but it tasted pretty good. The Salsa could have been more spicy. After browsing the menu for a few minutes, I decided to go for the Carne Asada Nachos ($ 13.99). I asked the waitress for really spicy Salsa on the side.
After a short wait our food came out. The Nachos were tasty, but they were really salty! The Carne Asada was juicy and had good flavor… but the Salty Chips overwhelmed any of the good flavors in the dish. The extra Spicy Salsa I requested was very hot… perfect!
Overall, it was a pretty good meal… but it was just average to me. It didn’t leave me wanting more.
Will I return? Probably not… unless a friend wants to meet here again.

Haha, closing at 3 AM my a**. I went here with a group of about 15 last night and at 1:15 AM we were the only people there, with the lights turned on and the music off.
Because we had a large group, we got a special rate of $ 5/​person for one drink and shared appys. Bean dip was good, salsa was decent, empanadas were yummy and the Dos Equis lager on tap was nice. Drinks were regularly $ 10 a pop on tap… ppppppffft. I’m not liquid so I just got my single drink to split with my friend.
Oh, I gotta mention that the bathroom attendant was nice and I liked that the lights were bright enough that you could clearly see how you looked unlike the bathroom lights at Blue Martini. Anyway…
I don’t know if you’ve seen the masterpiece that is Chris Brown’s Yeah 3X, but imagine the opening scene where the little kid sitting on the stoop yells, «Man, I’m bored.» That is how I felt last night. I got there at 10:30 and the place was a ghost town. At midnight, the place was still basically a ghost town for a Friday night in Vegas. It was a ghost town at 1:15 AM when I left.
To quote E-​40, «I’m from the Bay where we hyphy and go dumb» so I like to get crazy on the dance floor. I was SOL last night. The DJ played bleh — I mean, some dude wearing more eye makeup than Taylor Momsen with hair styled into a legit mohawk playing a 10 minute set of Katy Perry… GUUUUURRRRL PLLLLLEASE. This DJ was frontin’ like no other; he never played the E-​40 I requested. The audacity. This place was not on fire — the dance floor had tops 3 guys dancing and max 8 girls at full capacity. The sloppy video-​screen go-​go dancers were hillarious.
Basically, if you want to break it off on the dance floor T-​Pain style, this for d*** sure is not the place to be.

Lolita’s Cantina might be the newest hot spot in Town Square but in my opinion, it’s not living up to the hype, with serious issues as regards atmosphere, food and customer service.
I went there as part of a group of 20. The restaurant was empty, and we were expecting a bunch of tables pushed together. Instead, we were seated in an area with couches and stand up tables.
Speaking as someone who’s part Mexican, the «cantina» décor leaves something to be desired — since when did a wall of Tequila become enough to call a restaurant a «cantina»? Speaking of tequila, Lolita’s promotes themselves as being a tequila bar yet they have no drinks menu available. What’s that about?
Onto the food. We ordered small bite appetizers during happy hour and boy were they tiny! The guacamole tasted like the avocado paste that comes in a bag from your local grocer’s freezer. My dining companions agreed that the food was okay but nothing to rave about.
And then that customer service — I ordered a $ 5 strawberry margarita, only to be told afterwards that it actually cost $ 8 because it’s «flavored.» Luckily, the bartender «cut us a deal» for $ 5 — an odd deal, seeing as it isn’t mentioned anywhere on the menu that there is an up charge for flavored margaritas. There’s that lack of drinks menu again, see?
It’s not all bad — as I said before, the holographic dancers are amazing! But the only way you could possibly get me to go back would be for this show alone. It’s a shame that such a great venue seems to have been sloppily put together.

Let me start by saying I anticipating the opening of this restaurant and wanted to fall madly in love with it. Town Square needed a delicious Cantina and Tequila Bar and sadly… this place gets two thumbs way down from moi. The only reason Lolita’s is getting one star is for the cocktails. Other than that I have nothing positive to say about this place! Let me break it down for you.
Décor/​Atmosphere: Blah. The furniture and decorations appear very cheap and lacking style. Almost as if it was thrown together at the last minute. The interior designer should be fired. They also can’t seem to get the lighting down either. The music was too loud for my taste, too.
Food: Double blah. The salsa will usually set the mood for the rest of the meal and this left alot to be desired. Bland and too much of a sweet tomatoe taste. Secondly we had the mini quesadillas which tasted as if they were straight out of the freezer section at the grocery store and lacking depth in flavor. Lastly for my entrée I chose the Carne Asada Plate which was just aweful. The meat was tough and chewy and had tons of grizzle. The black beans were bland as hell. Do you even think I felt like wasting another dime on dessert? No way, Jose.
Service: Triple Blah!!! All I expect from servers is to keep my glass full, table semi-​clean, and bring to the table what I ordered. Simple? For starters the drink I ordered was a Kettle-​GingerAle and I was delivered a Jack and Coke. My guest also was delivered the wrong beverage. Then when it came to the food it took seconds for our appetizer which only confirms it was frozen and it felt like five years to get my beef jerky Carne Asada dish. The whole time the waitress had this blank look on her face as if she was lost.
Needless to say I will not be back anytime soon and will not let any of my friends spend a dime or waste a minute of their life in this generic place… Sorry Lolitas!

My husband and I agree that this is a 3.5 star restaurant, and we both planned to reluctantly round up to a 4 in our reviews, but after sleeping on it, I’m going to round down instead.
Why? It really wasn’t a 4-​star experience, and our combined rating is more accurate.
I may have relented if not for something else. Look, if you’re going to obvious pains to market yourself as trendy, then for Blind Io’s sake get a copy editor. As kindred spirits before me have said, «An apostrophe does not mean, ‘Watch out! An S is coming!’»
I can’t take a hipster cantina as seriously as they would like if their table menus, display menu, *and* website offer «margarita’s,» «burrito’s,» and so forth. I’m all for breaking the rules in the name of fun, but this kind of sloppiness is at odds with the image that Lolita’s is clearly attempting to cultivate.
Ah, but I’ll give it a rest for now and move on to what’s important: the food, the service, and the atmosphere.
Initially, Lolita’s seemed to be a bar with some «sit with strangers”-style table arrangements. We almost walked away, but then we spotted the booths toward the back. In we went, past the boozier patrons either sitting low in the cushioned lounge seats or up high on four-​to-​a-​table barstools, and into a regular restaurant area that isn’t really visible from outside. So, despite appearances, this is not just for people who want to nosh between tequila shots.
The music was loud but not obnoxiously so, something I wish Serendipity 3 and BLT Burger could learn. The lighting was slightly clubby, as seen when it turned my enchiladas a lurid orange, but the effect was not so much edgy as sitting inside a photo being edited by someone who has just discovered Photoshop. Fun, but not stylish. The wooden seats were extremely comfortable, the kind that don’t require good posture or encourage slumping, either. A+ for seats.
Service was… mixed. The two hostesses came across as deliberately artificial, and they were clearly a little bummed when they had to drop their conversation with one of the male staff to seat us, but otherwise they were harmless. The water server was very keen to do his job, often lingering at the table a few seconds when passing to visually check and re-​check our status. I’m not a fan of hovering, but his dogged intentions were in the right spot.
Our server was pleasant enough. There was one weird moment, though. After he took our order and gathered the menus, he paused, put one menu back on the table, and said, «I’ll, uh, just leave this one here so you can read it.»
So, we picked it up after he left and read it again. Had we missed something interesting? (No.) Was there a dessert menu to keep in mind for later? (No.) Strange. So why did he hesitate then leave it?
I could be paranoid and venture that the waiter assumed two fatties like us would surely end up getting second entrees, but if we’re going to be fanciful (I hope), then let’s say this was his way of silently begging us to proofread the menu. Maybe he’s embarrassed to work somewhere that doesn’t know how to pluralize nouns. Fear not, the injustice has now been Unilocaled!
Before this, I never knew it was possible to have service that was too fast. For refills, great, but instead of leisurely enjoying a few chips, an appetizer, then the main dish, we had all three going at once.
This somewhat marred our dining experience. The restaurant wasn’t really busy, so again, it came across as a lack of professionalism. It’s disappointing to have to decide which plate to let get cold, and being rushed along is never appetizing. I felt like I had to keep my fork in my hand at all times or they would take my plate away. (My husband’s was whisked off as he chewed his last bite.)
In my husband’s review, he commented that perhaps we were just a tad underdressed. Nah. We were just a bit pedestrian — polo shirt and shorts for him, cotton summer top and black capris for me — compared to the guys in their artfully distressed plaids and denim or the women in bra-​exposing minidresses. Regardless, the rushing was inappropriate.
The empanadas we shared were delicious: lightly fried and filled with poblanos and Mexican-​style cheese, served with a crisp pico de gallo and a black cream sauce. (Which reminded me of the yummy black bean dip served with the chips, and the two bites I had of it before the appetizer was served.)
The empanadas are the reason we will, despite all other issues, probably return. My roasted vegetable enchiladas were as beautifully presented as my husband’s three open-​face soft corn tacos, and I appreciated that Lolita’s uses savoury vegetables like onion and mushrooms. (Broccoli slathered in enchilada sauce and drizzled with cheese and sour cream always feels oxymoronic.) But those empandas — mm mm mm.
With culinary finesse like that, I can forgive the «trying too hard» vibe and hope the service (and spelling) soon matches the chef’s skills.

The good, the bad and the ugly. Ok, here goes. So, I hear Lolita’s is opening up and the chef comes from Border Grill, and it’s in Town Square and it has creative cocktails and it’s a lovely summer night. what more do I need? My friend’s birthday warranted an excuse to check it out.
The good: the food is seriously wonderful. The ceviche’s are fresh, the Shrimp Ensalada was so tasty. Marinated grilled (ok a little too grilled) shrimp served with a salad of cucumber, tomato, avocado and grapefruit in a light citrus dressing. Amazing! The marinated chicken entrée was served with sweet potatoes and rice (I don’t get why so much starch). The moist chicken was grilled and the marinade left a sweet and tangy finish to the outside. The brownie thing served for dessert had a moist and chewy crumbly center, kind of like a lava cake too. The outside had the most delicious crispy texture that just thinking about it makes me salivate! My Pineapple Margharita when it finally arrived, was sweet and tangy with a real pineapple juice and fresh lime juice. The tequila they used was smooth and the whole cocktail was a pleasure.
Here is the bad: I called Lolita’s and the phone rings and rings and rings and rings… the lady who answered said she is not a person who can take reservations. «Call back and someone else will answer who can help you» she tells me. Ok, so I call back in about 10 minutes and it rings and rings and rings and rings and rings and then someone picks it up just to hang up. Ok, bad sign.
I call later in the day when I KNOW someone must be in the restaurant and am then able to make are reservation for 4 people the following evening.
Blunder number 2. We get there on time and it takes at LEAST 15 minutes to find us a table in a not crowded restaurant. Ok, so we go to the bar to try one of the ‘handcrafted cocktails’ advertised on the sign out front.
Blunder number 3. There is NO cocktail menu! Wha??? So I ask the waitress for a verbal listing and she hems and haws and says «Mojitos are good?». Ugh. We order a round of drinks and the hostess comes to seat us before they arrive.
Blunder number 4. We were seated for at least 10 minutes before our drinks arrived. The waitress, while cordial, Was not attentive and we waited too long to order anything. So of course we ordered everything at once because who knew when she would be back to take our entrée orders. Just an FYI, I observed other tables waiting too long for service from other servers so I can’t just blame it all on our waitress. Something was not working right.
Blunder number 5. When the drinks arrived my Pineapple Margharita was a salted traditional. um. Wrong. Try again.
Blunder number 6. The ceviche sampler platter arrived and as the waitress was setting it down all the little martini cups they were served in dumped right onto the table. Honestly, you would have to be a circus performer to carry a tray in one hand and set down a heavy plate with 3 little martini cups full of a heavier than liquid substance without spilling anything. (The ceviche was so good though that we actually ate if right off the butcher paper covering the table) That wasn’t the blunder. We ordered more but our entrees were finished and there was still no sign of the ceviche appetizer. So we had the item removed from the bill as a no show. That was the blunder.
Blunder number 7: my dining companion ordered the grilled chicken entrée (I forget the name but will never forget how tasty the chicken was!). Since she didn’t need all the carbs she asked for no sweet potatoes and double the grilled vegetable side. Well, along comes her entrée with no vegetables and double the carbs. ??
Blunder number 8: While minor it still counts to me. My other companion ordered a Kir Royale cocktail from the bar while we were waiting for our table. The waitress needed him to repeat it 3 times probably because she never heard of it. It is a traditional classic cocktail made with Champagne, Crème de Cassis and a twist. It would have been an experienced bartender if the drink came to him appropriately made. Unfortunately, it wasn’t.but it was close. He got champagne with chambord. A bit too sweet but he didn’t complain.
Blunder number 9 and 10: Actually this was for another table who had items dropped twice at their table. Our poor server, it was definitely not her day.
Right now I really wouldn’t suggest heading to Lolita’s Cantina unless you are a very patient person with a lot of time to kill. Come visit when they work out the details regarding menu items, having an actual drink menu, training servers to be knowledgable of menu items, getting the flow going to keep service smooth and after they have an answering machine. I think Lolita’s Cantina will survive. The place was already packed, they have great marketing going on and really and truly the food was almost worth all of those blunders.

Good food. wasnt amazing but yeah it was good. tried the sampler appetizer and had the wet slow cooked rib burrito.
anyways very good looking staff. and from what our waitress said it turns into a cool lounge/​club atmosphere later in the night. i left dinner around 8pm as some dancers were starting to show up :/​
appetizer/​dinner/​drinks for me an a friend was about 70.00
if i remember correctly they specialize in Tequila? ehh i dont remember but i think thats what i was told.
