The food here is fantastic, the service was excellent thanks to Dana, our server. She was friendly, attentive, and made great recommendations. She made our evening dining experience well worth it A great idea for a Friday evening in Eagle. read more

Dayna is awesome and the churros and drinks are great too! Send her and her kids to Disneyland!!!

The vibe was incredible. It felt like stepping into another world. Rather than just being another place to grab a meal, the atmosphere completely immersed you in the experience from the moment you walked in. The ceviche was hands down the best I've ever had: fresh, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. What truly set this place apart, though, was the people. The staff and ownership were absolutely outstanding, welcoming, attentive, and genuinely passionate about creating a memorable experience. read more

Lalo delivers a fun, immersive speakeasy experience from the moment you walk in -- the cave entrance sets the mood before you even reach the beautifully decorated bar. The tableside guac is a must, and we also tried the queso, which was good and perfect for sharing. Service was friendly and attentive. Our favorite drink was the Smoked Peaches & Cream -- the smoky mezcal paired perfectly with the sweet peach, and the presentation made it even more memorable. The mango cantarito and guava margarita were okay, but not a standout or something I would order again. It's on the pricier side, and you're paying more for the atmosphere and experience than exceptional cocktails. They also showed us a private group room available to rent out. Not somewhere I feel the need to revisit, but I'm glad we went once for the experience. read more

No idea where to start. This place is incredible. The entrance is so unique and very cool. Then you enter the main room (after passing the "cartel" room. The service was world class. The food as well. Great small plate selection. We tried several plates and drinks and each was as good as the other. Amazing selection of tequila and tequila bars craft cocktails. Also an amazing Whiskey collection. Make a reservation as the place is busy and deservedly so. Best new bar in the valley. GO!!!! read more

We had a party of 13 in the cartel room. It was absolutely amazing. Great ambience. Service is outstanding. Dayna was fantastic, her recommendations were spot on. Everything was delicious, off the charts. They're bacon wrap dates and the ceviche were so great, as well as the guacamole! They fry in beef tallow and everything is fresh. An absolute must. We will definitely be back. read more

The ambiance is awesome and a whole experience in itself! They definitely hit the vibe on this one! Cocktails are great and fun. They have tapas but not full dinner which I was not completely aware before going. The guacamole is made right in front of you and you can add the spice as you like which is cool. More of an experience type of place which is fun for special occasions! read more

More than a cantina... it's an experience! From the time you enter the door to the cave until you leave, it is truly an experience unlike anything I have experienced! First off, I would definitely recommend making reservations as space is limited. Food: 3.5/5. There are not many food options, so I would not recommend coming if you are hungry and plan on eating before or after. On that note, the food was just ok. The guacamole was pretty good, but smaller than I thought it would be. The ceviche was pretty spicy and didn't do it for me. I was really sad they didn't have the churros or fried ice cream for dessert. We had the truffles though that were great! There was a spicy one that reminded me of a Mexican mocha that was my favorite. Service: 5/5. The service was amazing. We were seated fairly quickly with our reservations and our server was super nice and helpful. Atmosphere: 5/5. What a cool spot! It is unlike any other place I've been. I feel like it would be a place in Disneyland - magical and takes you to another world. read more

Funny how the troll accounts come out when a new place opens up. Evident here. But despite this, had to try. Same owners as the speakeasy Gatsby and Sid's Garage downtown. And because of this, a lot of similarities with Gatsby's. Windowless, unique glassware, and finishing touches on the cocktails. Makes for a fun and unique experience. A+ for the decor and transformation into Mexico. The cave entrance into the bar is one of a kind. Felt like I was a kid again back at Knott's Berry Farm. YKYK. The bar is so well decorated. Great job with the murals, candles, and the vibe. Our server, Dayna, was a doll (sound like an old man). She was sweet, fun, and very nice. Great service. Dining options are limited but we were prepared from some of the other reviews. You don't come here for the food, yet. Tried the table side guac and pico de gallo with the "famous" chips. The chips are good and obviously fresh, yet a bit too salty for me. Doesn't make them bad, just made our mouths pucker at the end. The cocktails helped with that :-). Portions aren't huge but again, not here to eat a meal. Flavors are there so it was good. I had a guava margarita that was yummy. Drinking from a glass straw is fun. The Diablo margarita was also good. Unique add with the wine to offset the pepper. I also tried their brown butter old fashioned. Wow, what a sweet and flavorful twist. This was almost like a dessert rather than a cocktail. A+ for presentation. I took a video but it didn't come out very well with the dim lighting. I saw the previous review about the merchant fee on the check (3%). Normally not a big deal, passing the fee on to the users. I get it. But I researched it. I Wonder why they're adding it even when they don't know if I'm paying with cash or a debit card? Double-edged sword I guess. Either raise your prices to cover or add it to the check. Ignorance is bliss in my opinion. Looks odd on a check. read more

We were super excited to make and confirm reservations at Lalo on Halloween night. My wife never has the day after Halloween off so it was definitely special. I had made reservations about a week in advance for a table and were offered either to sit at the bar or a table. I made the mistake of not being steadfast with my reservation-more about shortly The service is phenomenal and we were led through a cave and we stopped a special booth reserved for club members. That's cool. The bar room with booths, tables and high chaired stools at the bar. After walking past several empty booths and tables and seeing our two chairs at the bar, I had immediate regret. We asked if we could change, but it was too late and that's a shame since we originally booked a table. My reservation number was 7WS9Y8MJBJ6 We sat at the right side end of the bar and while we had an amazing view of the bar back and bartenders in their on point Halloween costumes that intimate date night we were looking for was out the window faster than Uncle Rico touchdown pass to Napoleon. Our bartender who was dressed as Sally from a Nightmare before Christmas was so nice and entertained all my questions even while she was busy making and pour drinks. She was an all-star. I ordered table-side guacamole since their menu offerings were not quite yet finalized. The guacamole cart and gentleman came. He put the chips next to wife and I. He said something that I couldn't understand and I really appreciated his patience as after the third time he was able to let me know in my ear that the chips were fried in beef tallow. Glad he told me because had I not waited for him to say something, I would have had some severe cramps as I haven't had meat or meat by products in six years. The team at Lalo completely understood and was so nice about everything. My drinks were fabulous. Can't rave enough about them all. I think my favorite was the Oaxaca Old Fashioned and least favorite was a beer - chaser in a can wrapped in paper bag. I get thats the theme but I looked like a complete idiot with a brown paper bag with a beer can inside. As an overall visit, Lalo is a lot of fun and we will be back. read more

If you're anywhere near Eagle or Boise and not eating at Lalo Cantina, you're doing it wrong. The tableside guacamole is 12/10 and the ceviche is to die for--fresh, flavorful, and made with serious intention. You can taste the quality and care in every bite. Our waitress Dayna was an absolute gem--attentive, warm, and genuinely made the experience special. The manager Ethan is amazing and clearly runs a tight ship while keeping the vibe welcoming and fun. And the owners? Incredible humans. The hospitality here is truly outta this world--you feel it the moment you walk in. We ate in the Cartel Room, which is hands-down the coolest private room in Boise. Perfect atmosphere, great energy, and an unforgettable setting. Food, service, hospitality, and ambiance--Lalo Cantina nails all of it. We'll be back... a lot. read more

3.5 stars Atmosphere was great - Regional Mexican music, dim lighting, fantastic mural, Talavera Mexican tiles throughout. We sat at the bar, chairs are spaced well to allow for privacy and not feel overcrowded. No napkins provided at the bar, aside from drink napkins; would have liked to receive cloth napkins. The drink presentation was excellent, but the strength of the drinks did not match the ambiance. The Pickle-Rita had more lime flavor than pickle and the other drinks didn't have much of a punch. The homemade beef tallow chips were the star of the show, truly delicious. Guac and pico de gallo had great flavor, but portions were small. Lastly, the merchant fee on the final check was a surprise and is a unique choice for an upscale establishment. This is something expected to be built into the pricing of menu items. read more

Incredible. Had a private event there and everything was delicious. The venue is great for networking and having a birthday party.

We had an amazing experience at Lalo Cantina! The drinks were well priced for top tier cocktails with top shelf, Additive free Tequilas. We devoured the table side quacamole and queso with Chicharrones (best chicharrones I've had outside of Tlaquepaque, Jalisco)! Love the decore and lighting, its like being in an upscale tequila bar in Guadalajara. Amazing service from Dayna and Travis! We'll be back again and again. read more

An unforgettable anniversary night at Lalo! My wife and I stopped into Lalo last night to celebrate our anniversary, and it couldn't have been a better experience. The atmosphere is effortlessly cool -- that perfect mix of upscale speakeasy and laid-back local vibe. We tried the prawns, and they were absolutely phenomenal -- perfectly cooked, bursting with flavor, and paired beautifully with their craft cocktails (which are some of the best we've ever had). We also had the chance to meet the owner, who was genuinely welcoming and took the time to chat with us. You can tell he takes real pride in what he's built -- and it shows in every detail, from the drinks to the music to the energy of the place. If you're looking for a spot in Eagle that feels special, inviting, and just a little bit magical, Lalo is it. We'll definitely be back! Salud! read more

If you're in the mood for a new bar, this is the place! Just a heads-up, though, it's not a restaurant, so don't expect a full meal. You'll find chips, guacamole, and prawns for $4ea. The drinks are pretty good and not too expensive. The vibe is great, but the music is a bit loud, so conversations can be challenging. Just don't come hungry! I'd rather go to Mesa Tacos or even Chapala's, where we can get a good drink and food. read more

All I can say is wow!! This place is really cool. From the moment you walk through the front door and then walking though a cave like hallway to get to the bar. Definitely didn't feel like I was anywhere in Idaho. The drinks and apps were amazing too. Definitely an experience and this will be a place we visit often. read more

This place is awesome! The space almost feels like you're in a cave, which is such a cool touch, and the dim, intimate lighting really enhances the ambiance. The menu is incredibly creative, and every drink we tried was delicious and thoughtfully crafted. The cocktails did take a little while to get to us, but they were well worth the wait. We ordered the tableside guacamole and chicharrones--both tasted fresh and paired perfectly with our cocktails. The servers were attentive, knowledgeable, and clearly knew their tequilas, which made the experience even better. read more

Good to try once just for the experience. Drinks we had were good. Very dim interior. We (party of 4) were sat at a table that was literally sticking out into the entrance so everyone coming in brushed against the person sitting on that side. Owner (I guess) was taking friends on a tour of both business's and was talking loud and picking up chairs to show his friends, which we felt was inappropriate. Fairly expensive for meh. read more

Find another late night host!! We showed up a little after 10pm and stood at the reception area for 5-10 minutes and no one showed up to acknowledge us. We walked into the actual bar area and were told we couldn't be in there because we needed to check in with the host that wasn't there. Some guy marched us back to the front and told us "we're not doing that!". We were confused and had no idea what he was insinuating but ultimately told us they were closing. It was 10:30pm and website says 11pm. It felt like a Big F U to the group of people that were excited to try out this new spot. At the end of the day, that's a terrible way to treat potential customers. We won't be back!!! read more

Don't go here if you want to have a good time. 4 guys having a little Christmas gift exchange. 59 minutes in we had spent $199. Not because we are alcoholics but due to the price of the drinks. But we did not care. What was unbelievable was that we were told at minute 60 you need to be prepared to leave in 30 minutes. Our reservations are only 90 minutes. Never seen a business model succeed that says "run customers off so they don't spend more money". We tipped 25 pct but will never go back. Ran a high end restaurant and bar for 20 years Never had the stones to say "you need to quit spending money as a customer with us". If I could give a 1/2 star rating I would. read more

Showed up there an hour before that closed. Looking forward to the place. It looked really cool when we got there. When we got there, there was nobody in the entry area so we walked back towards the bar and we ran into some prick Manager. He tried to get us to go back to the front to check in because he thought they had somebody at the entry, but he did not.. a whole birthday party group of people told him there was no person there to greet and that we just had to go back and he was completely unprofessional . They didn't Need our 10 person Business. We aligned the vibe ajd left....one (none) and done!!!! read more
