| - I have lived in Dilworth for 2 years and have always gone to Cantina for "Mexican" but we figured we would try La Paz last night to see if compared. The answer: NO!!! Eating was myself and my fiancee.
The Setting: When we arrived there was no outside seating so we went to the bar for a drink. The bartender was not friendly and he actually creeped up out. After a five minute wait (which was fine with us) we were seated outside. The setting is pretty nice, but it is right on South Blvd. so the cars are pretty loud, not to mention the fire station across the street which halts conversations. I'm not sure if it is like this every night but it seemed like we were surrounded by a bunch of complete drunks. Some guy kept yelling he was drunk and was rude to the waiter, another man tried to light up at the table, and lastly a women got up and just danced (if that is what you call it) right at the table.
The service: Overall the service was sub-par. I will admit that it was very crowded so I'll take that into consideration. However, it seemed that our server would forget about us a few times. When we sat down we already had our drinks from the bar so we did not need to order drinks. It still took the server about 10 minutes for us to tell him we wanted an appetizer. By then, we had finished our drinks, and still had not gotten any chips and salsa. After, we finally got both we were then ready to order, but the server just left. We finished the chips and when we ordered we asked for more, never to get any. My fiancee got a fajita dish, but the server never brought a plate for her to eat off of so she had to use the chip basket. Finally, when we were ready to leave we gave the server a credit card and it took him 15 minutes to come back with the check. Overall we had two drinks, an appetizer, and dinner and it took 2 1/2 hours.
Food: Average at best. The food was not too bad, but boy did they give us enough. I ordered the Poblanos which had a very good variety of food. The actual pepper was pretty good. It had a good mix of cheese and shrimp along with beans, mango, and rice. My fiancee got the shrimp fajita which could have easily fed two people, if not three. The shrimp was cooked very well and had good spices to go with it. There was also, peppers, squash, and zucinne(sp). It was a pretty good mix. Now while I said the food was ok, once you started to eat it all started to taste the same. By the time we were done we could barely walk and still had enough food to not only have lunch the next day, but for another dinner as well.
Price: Modest. They did have decent drink specials and while the meals are a little pricey; they give you so much food it lasts more than just the dinner.
Reason for 2 Stars: Service, atmosphere, and decent food. Overall I could have had a worse experience, but I don't think I will go back again. This could be a good place to go with friends have several drinks and not care about bad service or average food. I think it would be much better with a large group.
