"What a cute little spot. Food was very fresh and well prepared and the service was excellent. I might end up coming back all 3 nights that i'm here. I love a place that shares the history of the founder on the wall. Great place for Mexican."

"Lolo’s is conveniently located right off the sandbar of South Beach. The atmosphere and ambience is nice. It took a long time for service and for the food to come out once ordered. The cheeseburger was decently good, and the fries were more tasty. The cream filled churros were delicious."

"Came here for a late lunch and the food did not disappoint! The tacos are absolutely amazing, and pair well with the beach themed cocktails. I had the crab birria tacos, and my husband ordered the regular birria and carnitas tacos. All were delicious! The service is also fantastic. I was super happy because I have issues with cilantro (tastes like soap to me) and they were more than happy to make my tacos without it. The crab birria had just the right amount of heat and was super flavorful. The staff also provided great recommendations for drinks to pair with our lunch."

"I had the veggie tacos with Brussels, mushrooms and corn. They made it with olive oil instead of the chipotle, because they advised me that oil contained butter. Friendly service, fun spot. "

"We came here for dinner when we stayed in Miami and it was absolutely delicious! Our server was very attentive and she gave us some good recommendations. We tried a few things off the Happy Hour menu to start. I highly recommend trying the Elote. It was Taco Tuesday when we went, which was great because they have a deal where you can get 1 order of tacos (2 tacos) and get the second order (2 tacos) half off! I got the Birria tacos, which were really good. The meat was super tender and flavorful. Lastly, we got the cheese filled churros for dessert and we loved them! They were crispy on the outside and gooey on the inside. We would definitely come back here again next time we are in Miami."

"We had the fish tacos and they were very tasty. We arrived early for dinner, which made for a relaxed, quiet experience. The dessert was great as well."

"This restaurant has amazing food. The interior is not updated and the seats are old and the vibe is closer to a diner, BUT I must say that the food makes up for it. I had tacos the first night and they were delicious. Be careful, they charge you for salsa on the side. Chips and salsa as an appetizer is $5. I had chips and guacamole and asked for salsa as well. They charged me $4 for salsa. Didn't tell me ahead of time that they were going to do that. I had breakfast every morning during my 5 day stay at the hotel. AMAZING. French toast, pancakes, avocado toast, fruit bowl, and bagel with salmon and cream cheese were my favorites. The portions were large and flavorful. The restaurant is attached to the Stanton Marriott hotel and is a good place to grab your meal in the southern part of South Beach way down by 1st St."
