    Stopped in to pre-game with something light to nibble on and a couple cocktails. I love a cute outdoor venue. The bartender was personable and quick. We ordered the queso and chips to coat our stomachs. It was really good and flavorful. The chips were very good with the perfect crunch. And the drinks were delicious and strong. And the pricing was good. I'll definitely pop back in soon.

    So cal is an amazing taco Tuesday destination! It's located in Brickell so after a couple drinks and some Tacos, you can explore the Brickell area. The shrimp & fish tacos were my favorite! I tried the beef,steak, shrimp and fish tacos.... The staff was really nice and knowledgeable about the drinks and also the food. They had the heat game on, good music and a nice vibe. We ended up going to a karaoke lounge after that was literally up the street! I would definitely recommend So Cal to anyone looking a fun time with tacos in the Brickell area.

    Stopped in for a drink. I ordered a mojito and shared nachos with my friend. My drink was great and I loved the nachos!! I want to go back and try one of the entrees. The staff is very attentive and friendly. I recommend this place.

    Absolutely fantastic place in a desert of corporate and city life. This is your oasis for a laid back atmosphere and good times. AJ and his staff bring you great food, drinks and experience. Their new lunch menu is fantastic and the Mahi bowl is my new favorite.

    Nachos

    Came here last night for a quick late night dinner. Service was great and speedy, and the food came out very fast. The bowl was a 5/5. Wish there was more cheese on the nachos, but they were still good. It seems like most of the seating is outside, and it's on the main road in Brickell, so we got to watch everything going on on the street. It's a nice casual spot, and I'm excited to go back and try the tacos next time!

    Steak tacos minus all the fixings - my kids are picky

    Stopped in while staying in town awaiting our cruise. Small restaurant with ONLY outdoor seating which seems to be somewhat common in this area. They did have a large fan which kept us quite comfortable. I will say that their music choices are definitely inappropriate for children as there was quite a bit of profanity. That being said, the food was well liked by all. My quesadilla was a large size and very tasty. My husband said the Anaheim tacos were really good and had super flavorful toppings. My kids liked their steak tacos as the meat had a great flavor. Would recommend for a quick bite if you are in the area.

    Enjoyed a very lovely dinner with stellar service on 3/13 despite the evening starting off a bit…read moreshaky. My dinner plans changed last minute due to the weather, which was heavily raining and decided on Lolita despite not having reservations. Upon arrival we were instructed to go upstairs where the very young and inexperienced host could not figure out the system and said sorry there was no availability to accommodate us. We left disappointed and while going downstairs I decided to pull uo their booking site to confirm availability. The system reflected several available time slots for dinner. Kudos to the downstairs host that accommodated us immediately once I showed her the system reflected availability. The servers were truly incredible downstairs and I appreciate the very attentive and charming service provided throughout the evening! I ordered a beet salad which was almost perfect but was lacking feta or goat cheese which I highly recommend they consider having in the kitchen. The oxtails tacos were delicious and very filing. I also enjoyed the brown dessert. Thank you for a yummy evening with fantastic service!

    Great little spot for Mexican eats. Good menu of authentic items with fair prices. The space is…read moresmall but has plenty of seating, including some inside and some outside. I had sopes, which are always a treat. They were happy to make them for me with just beans too, so good spot for non-meat options. Really enjoyed my meal and would absolutely come back!
