After becoming full-time travelers a few years back Tim and I have been on the hunt for the Mexican food we know and love, but despite visiting 27 states, nothing was quite the same. With Baby #3 on the way, that’s all I wanted was a “taste of home.” Las Olas did not disappoint!! How sweet and kind that the staff at Hampton made the extra effort to my long-awaited meal. Now, if only they could find a way to ship cross-country.”
