"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.
