" While I hoped to find an authentic Mexican dining experience at Las Islitas, I was left wanting. The food was decent but didn't have the flavor explosion I expected. I tried the seafood tower and it had potential but lacked seasoning. The service was lacking; our waitress seemed overwhelmed and couldn’t keep up with our requests. However, the atmosphere is nice and it definitely had a welcoming feel. I might give it another shot, but I’m not rushing back just yet. " (*Curated Review*)

" My visit to Las Islitas was mixed. On one hand, I truly enjoyed the maico molcajete; it was a delightful blend of seafood and spices. On the other hand, the service was at times inattentive, and it took far too long for our food to arrive. I'm not deterred by my experience enough to not return; I'm hoping that my next visit will completely live up to its illustrious reputation. " (*Curated Review*)

" Great food! If you love seafood, this is a must-visit. The tacos gobernador were incredibly flavorful, and the portions were generous. I felt the service could improve, as I had to wait a bit for my dessert, but it didn't ruin an otherwise fantastic experience. I will return to try more of their menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" My friends and I had a wonderful dinner at Las Islitas. The food was fresh, and the taste was on point! The michelada was the best I've had! Our server checked on us regularly, and we felt well cared for. The vibe of the restaurant was lively and fun, perfect for a group gathering. Overall, highly recommend it to anyone looking for good seafood! " (*Curated Review*)

" I love this place! Las Islitas never fails to impress with their authentic Mexican seafood. The ceviche was bright, fresh, and seriously tasty! The portions are decent for the price, and I always appreciate the lively atmosphere with the live music. While the service can sometimes be hit or miss, the food is consistently good, making me a return customer. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was let down by my visit. For a restaurant that markets itself as having authentic Mexican seafood, the dishes fell short. My ceviche was bland and lacked the acidity I was expecting. I felt my server was inattentive; it took an unreasonably long time for our food to arrive, and when it got there, it was lukewarm. An enjoyable atmosphere, but unfortunately, I won't be returning based on this experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" I wish I could give Las Islitas a higher rating, but my recent experience was unfortunate. The food was decent, but the service was dreadful. We waited over an hour for our food, and when it arrived, some of our dishes were either missing ingredients or not as described on the menu. The atmosphere was decent, but it didn’t make up for the lack of attention to service. Perhaps some lessons in organization would help this place shine. " (*Curated Review*)
