" 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 can't say enough good things about Lolita! From the moment we walked in, the gothic decor blew us away. The food lived up to my expectations—especially the beef gorditas, which were rich and flavorful. The service was prompt and polite. We ended our meal with cotton candy on the house, which was a cute touch! Be prepared for smaller portions, but the taste makes up for it. Can't wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had such high hopes for Lolita, and it mostly lived up to them! The environment is fantastic—all dark and atmospheric. The grilled street corn was phenomenal; I could eat that every day! My only complaint was that the tacos felt overpriced for what you get. Service was mostly good, with a few hiccups, but I really enjoyed the visit. Great for a fun night out! " (*Curated Review*)

" Loved my evening at Lolita! The gothic decor caught my eye immediately. The food was delicious! The chicken quesadilla was my favorite. I just wish the portion sizes were a bit larger, especially considering the price point. Nonetheless, service was prompt, and the atmosphere was so lively! Would love to return for more culinary adventures. " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience at Lolita Back Bay was delightful! The decor set a vibrant backdrop for a fun night out. The food was well-prepared and tasty—especially the guacamole, which surprised me with its freshness! But beware—the servings are quite small for what you pay. Service was efficient, and the atmosphere upbeat and stylish. I'd love to return soon! " (*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*)

" 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*)
