" Lolita Back Bay left a lasting impression on me. The combination of the decor and the energy of the crowd creates an inviting and exciting atmosphere. Food-wise, everything we ordered was bursting with flavors, especially the lobster guacamole, which I can't recommend enough! However, the tacos were a bit overpriced, considering their size. Service was adequate, and the complimentary cotton candy at the end was a delightful surprise. I would definitely come back! " (*Curated Review*)

" Walking into Lolita feels like stepping into another world. The decor is absolutely stunning, and dinner was equally impressive. We tried the chicken guajillo nachitos, and they were a hit! However, I felt the size of the portions was a bit small for what we paid. Service staff were polite but could improve on attentiveness. It’s a great spot for a fun night out, especially if you're into cool aesthetics and cocktails! " (*Curated Review*)

" This spot is definitely one-of-a-kind in Boston. The ambiance is inviting with a dark, gothic vibe that sets the tone perfectly. The drinks are exceptional, particularly the Diablo margarita. The street corn was delicious, but I found the portions to be a bit lacking for the price. Our server was fantastic, making sure we had everything we needed without rushing us. Great place to enjoy a night out with friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" The restaurant was packed when we arrived, and I can see why! The atmosphere is vibrant, filled with great decor and a lively crowd. We were seated quickly, and our server was friendly and prompt. The food, however, was the star of the show. The crispy shrimp tacos and guacamole were excellent, bursting with freshness. One downside was the portion sizes; they were quite small for the price but worth it for the flavor. Overall, I highly recommend dining here! " (*Curated Review*)

" Just got back from dinner at Lolita and I’m still raving about it! The ambiance is dark and enchanting, with stunning decor. The food was excellent; however, be aware that the portions could leave you wanting more. I had the pork taquitos, and they were flavor-packed but a bit too small. Service was decent, although we had to flag someone down at one point. Loved my overall experience and will definitely return! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had an enjoyable dining experience at Lolita despite a few hiccups. The gothic atmosphere was a unique touch. The service was friendly but a bit slow. The street corn was fantastic, though I found the portion sizes to be on the smaller side. Overall good vibe, but I would suggest they increase their serving sizes. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high expectations for Lolita Back Bay. The atmosphere was upbeat and stylish, which made for a nice evening. I wasn't overly impressed with the food; the chicken enchiladas were decent but certainly not authentic by any means. The staff were friendly, though it took a while for our table to be cleared. If you’re looking for a fun night out with good vibes, this place delivers, but foodies might want to look elsewhere. " (*Curated Review*)
