3rd time in a row huge hit! Authentic taste; delicious and fresh food. Quantity is large more for 1 person but not enough for 2. Add an appetizer and one entree is good to share. Plan ahead as the place gets packed fast! Be prepared for a 40 mins wait during normal hours for supper or lunch. Worth it though!

We came on a Friday evening and we got sat pretty quickly and were offered a high chair for our 9 month old. They start you off with chips and salsa. The C&S were good however it seemed like they gave us the bottom of a tortilla bag (all of the crumbs!) We could barely get a whole one. Lol For mains we ordered The chicken flautas and they were well seasoned and a chicken burrito that came with a side of rice and beans. Everything tasted really good. Flavors were spot on but nothing to rave about. We also tried their frozen mango margaritas and they were good but their mango mojito tasted way better.

Great view. Nice cantina type atmosphere inside by the bar or outside. Staff were friendly and food arrived quickly. Tasted great. Lots of choices. No one in our relatively large party had any complaints about food drinks or prices. Checkout the frozen ice bars - some great flavor choices. Would recommend this restaurant and will return.

Came here today with a group of 8 people. I ordered the Tacos de Birria. Food: food was ok, not great, not horrible, just ok. Service: Asked for separate checks before the order was placed, they refused to do it. Lousy service, asked for an extra salsa to cover the other half of the table. Half the table had to climb over the people on the other side to dip. They Never brought it. Asked if the people at our table could give their own cards, but everyone could only pay under 1 person's card. The waiter was not friendly or helpful. Lousy service overall, if in the area again will push for the group to go somewhere else.

The food at Sunday brunch was good and more than enough to eat! sadly the bloody mary was lacking in flavor and consistency.

Eh, this place isn't that great. I only gave it 2 stars because the views and decorations were nice. Sits right near a lake so beware of sitting outside, ended up having many mosquito bites on my legs. Food was average. The ground beef was unseasoned so beware when you're ordering tacos and anything that has ground beef in it. Service was very slow and the waiter wasn't that attentive to us. Probably won't be back. If you want good Mexican food, try don Jose's in netcong or in east hanover, they're way better!

Fabulous food. This is our third time at this restaurant and this is by far the best it has been. The service was lack luster but it's hard to knock them when we knew what we were getting ourselves into

Service was friendly and slow. It took a while for a server to stop at our table after being seated. We were denied an outdoor seat and told it was a 45-minute wait, but the same size group immediately after us was given one (although we were told there were no reservations). The food was fine, but nothing amazing. I've eaten tastier stuff at some fast-ish food places. Our entrees came out immediately on top of the apps, way too soon to enjoy everything at a decent pace... and they charged for soda refills! Who does that anymore? The server did not even mention that there was a refill charge. Way to gouge a family for another $10 instead of working to earn repeated visits. Took forever to get the check or the server's attention after food was delivered. We won't be going back.

BEWARE! I made a reservation for 12 people for dinner at 8:00. We showed up and the parking lot was completely full. Every single car that came after us was told the same thing and equally as annoyed. Our only option was to keep driving around and wait...ridiculous! Reservations mean nothing at this establishment and we were told there was nothing they could do. Security and employees were complaining and stressed. Even if a spot opened up there is no guarantee your entire party would get one as well. This was for a celebration that was completely ruined. This was our first time at this establishment and we will simply not be returning.
My first thought heading to this spot right on Lake Hopatcong on a Friday night...parking's going to be tough! Not a worry, they have valet service that took care of the car immediately. This is a pretty large restaurant with two floors and outdoor dining. On a beautiful Friday night in the summer, it was packed. Fortunately, we had reservations for our group of 7 and there was no wait. Margarita's are the drink of choice at this Tex-Mex place, so a few of us ordered the flights. The 4 in mine were banana, coconut, strawberry, and mango. All were good, but the coconut was outstanding! For entrees, my wife and I both ordered the Enchilada Style Burrito. Mine was stuffed with bacon wrapped shrimp and was excellent! Everyone else enjoyed their food as well. Service on a very busy night was excellent. Our server was very friendly and helpful. I'll definitely be back! Give this place a try!

It's a chill place, if you have a boat you can pull-up order drinks and food. Now for the food, it's at very best below average. We started with the fried calamari which were blend and had an add taste. The calamari tested as if the frying oil had not been changes in a long time. I than got a taco Calais which was ok and birria tacos which were very oily. The ambiance is nice but they lack service and flavor.

We stumbled upon this place after returning from a hike at the Delaware Water Gap. We were greeted by a very lively atmosphere. Valet parking was smooth and required given how crowded it was. This place is located right on the shore of Lake Hopatcong- you can approach by land or by boat, it seems. The service is friendly and fast. The drink I had was pretty strong but tasty. The dishes we ordered were delicious and well portioned. Not over spicy. More like flavorful, with onions, garlic, and peppers dominating. I was very pleased to eat here. We plan to come here any time we are back in the area.

Lola's was great. First time there, they have valet parking which was awesome. The wait was 45 mins. But we were seat on 20 on the second floor facing the water. We were super excited. We ordered our drinks and food. We enjoyed the ambiance and watched the boats and jet ski go by. I can only describe it as a place we walk in and your whole demeanor switches to vacay mode instantly. We loved the service, food, and decor. People around us was so relaxed. We stayed extra time. It was that good. I would love to return before the summer ends. I recommend this hidden gem!! Must go and see for yourself!!
