We had a great time at Lolita's. There was some excellent Latin jazz guitar music (a bit too loud to have a conversation), and the food was delicious and reasonably priced.

A great spot for awesome Mexican food, great vibe and ambience. Band playing in the front was low key cool --- really added to the whole vibe. Lola provided exceptional service.
