Lola's Beach Cantina Reviews
The food was absolutely amazing! My only complaint is I sat at the bar a full 15 minutes before the bartender acknowledged me. She looked at me but she never acknowledged me. I will say it was right after lunch and I think a party of 6 just left. The man who was working the host stand asked me if I wanted something to drink after he realized I was sitting there for 10 minutes with no acknowledgment. I ordered a drink and it was good. The bartender finally came to take my order....read full review
