    Fairly full house on a Monday night and most tables and booths were full. High energy vibe. Quick to be greeted & seated and waited on. The food was excellent. The flavors were awesome and everything was delicious. We skipped dessert because we were too full from our entrées and guac and tostada appetizer. All day Happy Hour prices were an added bonus for our beverages. We will definitely go to Lolita‘s again.
