    Visited Lolita pre-show on a recommendation from a foodie friend, and it did not disappoint. We were seated in the very comfy upstairs area. Service was impeccable. Our waiter was attentive, but not intrusive, our water glasses were constantly refilled, and our food was brought out very quickly. From the guacamole and salsa appetizer to the chicken enchiladas and vegan tacos, everything was delicious. We were especially pleased by how sturdy yet airy the tasty tortilla chips were. I would definitely rrecommend Lolita for anyone who wants excellent Mexican food. The location was perfect for heading to the theatre just a couple blocks down 45th.

    Beautiful decor. The drink menu had more options than the food menu, I think. Service was okay - not bad but not particularly welcoming. If I did return, I would go for the drinks and flauta. Parking in that area is a bit of a nightmare so you’re better off taking the train.

    Overall great experience. Alfonso was our server and he was patient to our inquiries about food selections and options. Happy hour items are a must to try.

    It’s clear this place caters to one-offs and tourists. Several observations: a Mexican restaurant without fresh jalapeños !! Twice we ordered drinks - the order was take. By one waiter and delivered by another. The first time they got the wrong wine and each time a second waiter asks we needed drinks only to be told that we’d already ordered. Flautas were decent but the shrimp cocktail was insipid - like soaked in ketchup. Nice decor and ambience. but will not be returning. In short, food from far but far from good.

    Honestly? A big meh. Our waiter wasn’t very attentive or nice to be honest. The food was okay, you can definitely get better food elsewhere in the city with a better experience.

    Food took forever to come out the sisig was good but portion was tiny. The sticky bun was dry could’ve been good if it was actually sticky warm, not burnt, and soft because the cream was good. Ribs good as well as pancakes.
