“Looking for a great place to eat and dog friendly, this is your place. I got 3 crunchy tacos, refried beans and rice. They were tasty. My wife got 3 soft tacos, refried beans and rice. The chips were warm and the salsa was delicious. Plus we ate on the patio so we brought Captain Jack. Our waiter was top notch. Great place to eat and dog friendly too.

Parking: There are plenty of places to park in front as well as a nearby parking lot.

Kid-friendliness: Kid friendly menu as well.

Wheelchair accessibility: Easy wheelchair accessible from the street as well as the parking lot.“

“I’ve honestly been thinking about my last visit to La Paz for days! Guacamole and top shelf margarita was delicious! My husband had steak fajitas and loved them. I had the surf and turf (snapper taco and bacon wrapped tamarind shrimp) it was awesome! Both the black beans and the refried beans tasted rich and homemade. I look forward to trying many things on the menu our next visit.“

“The food here is great and very authentic! We are local and directly behind them in Emerald Lakes. We eat from there often. They are a bit limited on staff and only have a couple of small tables for dining in. This is basically a pickup only restaurant. I've been trying to find a way to put in orders ahead of time in hopes of saving time. Pickup orders sometimes require a lengthy wait! I've tried calling ahead but, again, limited staff, so no one ever answers. Their online pickup ordering system charges a $3.00 fee which is above and beyond the tip (pic attached). Wish that wasn't the case but if $3 saves 30 minutes of wait time, I guess it's worth it!“
