Amazing Food, Atmosphere, and Service!
My experience at this restaurant was truly amazing. The food was incredibly fresh and delicious, and you can really taste the thought that went into every dish. The atmosphere made me feel right at home, and the service was excellent. I highly recommend this place!

Creative Space with Favorite Shrimp Tacos
My experience at this restaurant was largely positive, centered around its creative space that felt very inviting. We sampled several dishes, including the guacamole, cauliflower tacos, and fried shrimp tacos. The fried shrimp tacos, served with a jicama tortilla, were our absolute favorite. However, the cauliflower tacos could have used more flavor to enhance their taste. Despite this minor point, we loved the atmosphere and would definitely return.

Great Food, Slow Service
My experience at this restaurant was marked by good food, which I rated a perfect 5 out of 5. However, the service was a bit slow. This was likely due to the restaurant being popular and usually packed. Despite the slower service, I still believe it's worth going to try.

Overcharged and Average Food
My experience at Loló was disappointing due to significant discrepancies between menu prices and the final bill. Every item on our receipt was higher than advertised, and the manager explained it was due to a recent 10% price increase. This practice ruined the experience for our group. Additionally, the food was average at best and overpriced for the portion sizes. I would advise diners to double-check their receipt before paying.

Cute Place, Awful Food
My experience at this restaurant was disappointing. The food was awful, with flavorless mole and unsalted chicken. Even the margaritas were unbalanced. While the place is very cute, that's about the only positive aspect.

Tuna Tacos and Sweet Potato Perfection!
I’ve walked by this place for years and I finally tried it yesterday. My experience was exceptional, especially the food. I fell silent when I took my first bite of the tuna tacos and proceeded to devour the rest of my meal. The grilled sweet potato was so delicious and satisfying on every level. The grilled octopus was splendiferous and was a great temperature. I also tried the ceviche and the guac. The chips were warm, salty and plentiful. I cannot wait to come back and try more food.

Disappointed but Great Service
I was really excited to try this place, coming from Chicago, but was quite disappointed. The cocktails were okay and so was the food. However, the service was great. I probably would not recommend.

Great Food & Service, Poor Drink Value
My wife and I visited this restaurant for the first time. The service was great, and the food was tasty. However, the drinks were less than one would expect for the high prices. Having family who have owned restaurants, I understand alcohol is where you make money, but this place takes it to a new level. My Margarita was $18 and seemed to have more ice than actual alcohol in a small tumbler glass. The Hard Cider was $15; not only did I not receive a full amount (like some places provide the whole bottle/can), but I received a small port-like glass with a splash of cider, similar to a skimpy pour at a wine tasting. When I finished it, they asked if I wanted another? Seriously? I want the full amount for the price I paid. Water was free. I recommend skipping the drinks at this place because they don't understand people want a full drink for the money. If you do order drinks and they are all like I describe, don't come back. Unfortunately, they will learn the hard way when they have no customers and have to close their doors.
