Nice place to enjoy with friends & family . Too bad it closed down in LB
The best place ever. Super good food and excellent service
We love going to La Palapa. It's like being in a sunny-California postcard. The food and drinks are excellent, as is the entertainment. I see a few negative reviews, but we have never, ever had difficulty with the service or server's/management's attitude toward customers. Quite the contrary...we have been impressed. I highly recommend La Palapa. Thanks, Bear.
