“If you are a real food lover looking for chefs to fall in love with, I beg you to stop and eat here at least once in your lifetime.

And let me warn you, this place is anything but a restaurant! But man, magic is hidden here, and you must enter to find it!

Lola Gaspar is a dark, small bar in a hidden area of downtown Santa Ana. For those of us who aren't familiar with the area, finding it requires a few brave steps and lost missteps.

Once you enter, tell them you’re a first-timer. Go straight to the bar and ask them to make you a cocktail. Then, just stand there and watch a beautiful piece of art shape and form right before your eyes! Oh, and plan accordingly so you don’t end up driving. Believe me, you’ll thank me later.

The first time, I accidentally found this place while looking for another bar. As soon as we walked in, the bartender said, "This is my favorite song, so we all get a shot," and they handed us shots. And as you can probably guess, we never left to find the other bar.

And this whole time, I thought it couldn’t get any better, that the amazing cocktails and great company were all I could ask for until I ordered food one night. And I found myself falling madly in love!

The Pastrami tacos are out of this world. Honestly, everything they make is extraordinary.

I always go back chasing the dishes I had ordered prior to that time, only to face a whole new menu and more dishes to fall in love with. I don't understand how they can be so creative. I mean, each plate they bring is as beautiful as a piece of art and tastes like bites of heaven.

They have indoor and outdoor tables, and I've heard on certain days that they barbeque in the outdoor area and serve it right there on tortillas, but I haven't had a chance to experience it yet.

A little note: The plates are smaller than the usual restaurant serving sizes, so it might seem a bit pricey but they are so worth it. If you have the money I say order everything on the menu. Don’t panic! The menu is short ?“

“We recently held our wedding reception at Indio and it was beyond PERFECT ?? I had a group of around 40 people and we were seated at the outside patio. The ambiance was 10/10 (Saturdays they have a Dj), the service was 10/10, and the food was 10/10. I can’t say enough good things about Indio and the management. The pricing was more than reasonable and I would absolutely recommend this restaurant for large group events, we had so much fun!“
