bigger burrito, bigger flavour ↕️; lola’s is such a vibe spot on 4th street, the perfect pitstop after some vintage shopping. prices were nicer than i thought, very friendly-helpful staff, and the mole burrito is an absolute unit in both size and flavour: the chicken had a lovely char-roast smokeiness, a soulful-piquant verde sauce, though i do wish there were more red onions for the crunchy texture-diversity.

We live pretty close to Lola’s and have been wanting to try it, so Saturday morning, we rolled up with no wait, smiling faces, with a flavorful secret waiting to be shared. The food was fresh and fragrant, perfectly wrapped around spice for the wholesome mexican bite. The salsa was very memorable. It had soul-bright, smokey, and made with love. Our server had the best dimples and smile that was intoxicating, and she didn’t just serve the food. She served us with comfort and familiarity. Can’t wait to try more.

Came here after enjoying Long Beach Pride, and it was a great random pick!! This place is not too big or small, just right. It has a mellow vibe and great service! The food was very fresh, and flavorful! Also great and fresh margaritas! I recommend the spicy watermelon margarita!!!

Was in town last month and didn’t have time to try them out, but I’m back and we went in for lunch. Everyone really enjoyed their dishes. I had the chile verde burrito and it really hit the spot. Their moles are also really good. Great spot to come back to.

$227 for 6 people! The food is really good . Parking is only street parking so it’s kinda hard to find a spot. All the employees were really welcoming helpful and nice. No attitude and they kept checking on us. We got helped and seated right away. It gets busy but we didn’t wait too long for our food. My kids had the queso birria tacos and they really enjoyed them. My mother tried the Chile Verde Oaxaca style. My brother had the birria plate. He really liked it a lot. My dad had the birria enchiladas. I told him it stated this place was authentic to his town Guadalajara Jalisco so he was disappointed when he found out the birria was a mixture of pork and veal. Not goat meat. I had some delicious chicken tacos. I tried their pineapple tamarind margarita and it was good! will definitely return. Restrooms are available.

Wow!! I’m so blown away. We came here in a whim since we were in the area and wanted chips and salsa. We sat on the patio and it was absolutely stunning weather. We ordered from the happy hour menu which was delicious and the chips and salsa were so fresh and just well done. They serve two salsas which bring incredible balance to the experience. A creamy avocado salsa that the locals “crack salsa” and a more acidic and bright roasted salsa. The chips are airy and warm. The Birria Queso Fondido is incredible. Shoutout to May, our server. Super friendly, attentive, and just so sweet. Cannot recommend enough!!

I ordered three crispy vegan tacos served with black beans and rice. My hunnis ordered the asada burrito. The food was very good. The guacamole was very fresh! The waiter was outstanding. The atmosphere was wonderful. Great location (Retro Row in LB). I’ll be back soon to try other foods on the menu.

The restaurant boasts a fantastic location that really enhances the dining experience. From the moment we arrived, the staff was quick to greet us and exemplified friendly, attentive service throughout our visit. We appreciated the option to sit outdoors, where we could enjoy the fresh air and vibrant atmosphere, or indoors in a cozy setting. One standout item was the watermelon margarita—it was absolutely delicious, perfectly balanced with just the right amount of sweetness and a refreshing finish. The food itself exceeded our expectations as well; each dish was flavorful and well-prepared. We particularly enjoyed the chips and dips, which paired wonderfully with our drinks and added an extra layer of enjoyment to our meal. Overall, it was a delightful outing that we would highly recommend.

Lovely vegan options, clearly labeled! <3 I got the vegan enchiladas and they were so filling and tasty. The side of black beans and rice held up to my scrutiny, lol, very yummy. And lovely covered outdoor seating, too.
Lola’s does use imitation meats instead of, say, relying solely on something like black beans for protein — which I personally am fine with, but I know some do not prefer imitation meats.

The menu had a great variety of options, and the staff was friendly and attentive. The ambiance was cozy and inviting, making it the perfect place for a memorable meal. I can’t wait to go back and try more of their dishes. Highly recommended! ❤️ Foodie Android(Gaurav Kapoor)
