Thank you Flama Llama for making my 7 yo son's bday lunch special. We came in a group of 11 and they accommodated us quickly. The servers were very attentive and the food were wonderful. They even gave my son desserts for free. The kids especially loved the life size llama structure in the front.
Great food for a really great price! The service can use some improvement. We waited longer to be seated, than to receive or food. This was in the morning, where there wasn't much guest yet.
Food was amazing and can’t beat a free dessert. Chase and Alexis were chill. Emily and I were playing eye tag. Definitely caught a vibe.
I had the tallarin verde, and it was amazing! I inhaled it in the time span of two minutes! The drinks were delicious, Emily, Chase, and Alexis were so kind and attentive! Highly recommend to anyone :)
Great food with a lot of flavor!
Our waitress was Alexis Columba and helped us be seated. To begin, parking maybe a hassle due to limited parking space, however, the food are very good. I have been here twice.
The ambiance is nice, soothing, and authentic. They have happy hours for drinks. This here is the Lomo Saltado with beef flanks and mixed veggies. Very savory and flavorful. You are able to taste each ingredients.
I would come here again!
Great place, awesome food! Everything was spectacular, our server Aaron really made it special.
Great food and service! Abby was very sweet and knowledgeable, and got us our dishes fairly quick. We will be back for sure!
Cean provided excellent service and great menu recommendations!!! Drink, entree and dessert left me very happy and filled!
The food is absolutely delicious! Very cute concept and ambiance. I will definitely go back again.

Absolutely loved our experience at Flama Llama! The food was outstanding—everything we tried was full of flavor and cooked to perfection. The mojo pork in particular was incredible—tender, juicy, and packed with just the right amount of citrusy, garlicky punch. I also have to give a special shoutout to the elote corn—creamy, smoky, and totally addictive. Our servers, Aaron and Cameron, were fantastic—friendly, attentive, and made us feel right at home from the moment we sat down. Highly recommend this spot! We'll definitely be back. Thanks again, Flama Llama!
Food was good but not good enough to return because the service was so bad. They kept bringing us dishes that we didn't order and then never brought the drinks until we reminded them. Also dessert took 15min to get to the table and it was just flan that sits in the fridge. Th place wasn't packed so not sure why service was terrible. They even got our bill wrong and added items that we didn't order. We don't plan to return.
Loved it.... Not too noisy, food was great Chicken wings were great Ropa viejas Pork Tamarin saltado All were great
Flama Llama was great. The interior is cute, with an nice enclosed patio and great decor. The garlic noodles had a smoky/grilled flavor, and it came with big chunks of grilled veggies that weren't listed on the menu. Definitely a plus. The wonton soup had a good, rich broth. Elote was on the corn-forward side (not overly cheesy). Would definitely order it again. Yucca fries come with two great sauces. I really liked the green cilantro one (which also came with the garlic noodles). The liquor license is wine/sake only, but their sake-based cocktails are fantastic. Service was great.
A very fine meal. Love the wontons and the Lomo and Ropas Viejas. The kid devoured the pork tacos. Just wish the ambience was a bit warmer.
