The…read moreplace was spacious, with neon lights and floral decor, with a small, but perfect sized bar, where I sat as a solo diner. I called ahead to make sure they made their own michelada mix, which did not disappoint. It was more on the tangier side but delicious nonetheless. I got their chicken mole which came with white rice, different than any other mole dishes I've had before. Their white rice was some of the best I've ever had- to say the least. The refried beans were delicious (they served me tortilla chips with salsa and refried beans as soon as I sat down). The mole was a good sauce, certainly on the spicier side - hot and strong spice favor. Everything was good, I could see myself going back for a michelada and trying other things off their menu next time. I definitely won't pass up on their in restaurant fried tortilla chips, that's for sure, they were delicious. Thank you Loteria!

Even though it's consistently busy, they do a great job keeping the line moving, the wait wasn't long at all. Highly recommend, totally worth the detour if you are in the area!

What was bothersome was , when I asked for a side of salsa for the rice ,I was brought a small amount salsa and charged $1.50 for it . Not life changing charge but On a 90$ tab, that just landed as ridiculous. When a manager asked how everything was, I shared my thoughts on changing for a tiny amount of salsa on a tab of almost $100 and she was defensive about the charge .. why ask then?? not really customer service I care to revisit

I had the Fiesta Taco Salad. It's massive!! I definitely enjoyed it, and couldn't come anywhere close to finishing it. But it was a bit unremarkable. Think "white people taco night". Very basic, bland, no spice, really no cumin or any type of spices on the meat itself. It came with salsa and sour cream instead of dressing. Black olives were listed on the menu, but I didn't get any. If you're looking for authentic and flavorful, I'd skip it.

After realizing there was a communication issue, John somehow turned into Johann and we were seated. We all laughed it happens. We put drink orders in right when we sat.... 7:05pm This is where the ugly comes in... 40 minutes, no drinks, apps already came, we ate most, still no beverage. The table next to us who sat 15 min after us, got their drinks. I asked 3 different servers what was happening.,, no one could answer , no manager, no one followed up One by one our drinks came over the next 15 minutes.... So literally over an hour for beverages, no sorry, no we are busy, nothing.... Had a manager come over and apologized, I'd be a little better.. I am extremely disappointed . I would honestly not go back because of this . The food is amazing- absolutely so delicious, this is where I am torn. Maybe I go back and just have water?!?! We had a Monterey combo, enchiladas, a burrito, a quesadilla, and another entree I didn't catch. We wanted dessert, the server let us know it was gonna be a bit. THANK YOU for telling us.... I'm cool waiting just tell us. I wanted one more beverage, I asked if it was going to be a while, she told me she would rush it, she did and I appreciate that. (Still no apology for the first round) All in all good food, shitty bar service, NO manager . I would have taken an apology , or a discount or something, instead you ignored it and avoided us. Not sure if I'd go back at this point

The restaurant was smaller than I expected, and it was a little too warm inside for my liking, so we ended up taking our food to the car to eat instead. the tamarindo drink was crisp and refreshing. For dessert, I tried the flan. It wasn't quite what I was expecting, as it had more of a gelatin like texture. I personally prefer a creamier, custard style flan, and this one reminded me more of a boxed mix. The fresh flavors, generous portions, and Steve's excellent customer service made it a place I'd be happy to return to...next time, I'm definitely trying the birria tacos.
