Reviews for La Olla Mexican Cafe in Tucson, AZ

The food here is outstanding. Love their chips and salsa and their guacamole. I, most recently, had their fried, rolled,... chicken tacos. Paired with an extra side of guacamole, salsa and the refried beans as toppings...oh my. Service was impeccable. Small restaurant with tight seating garners the 3 star rating for atmosphere.

Excellent meal! Best of my trip. I had the combo platter with the steak Taco, Shrimp, and Carnitas Enchiladas? everything was... delicious and spiced perfectly. Very impressed with the service and quality of food. Prices were reasonable as well! Read more

Small dining room and long wait times for overpriced, mediocre food. Waited 40 minutes to get our dinner after ordering. I... don't think we'll be returning. There are other Mexican restaurants with better food, at a better price, just a short driveaway. Read more

Been by it many times, but decided to finally try it...what a great find! Excellent food, great service, friendly... atmosphere...not too overwhelming in size... we'll definitely be back! By the way...great nachos! Read more

Excellent specials! Surf and turf stack was delicious with Shrimp and Carne Asada. We had the Nachos for 4 because it's so good... we like to take some home. The dessert special was a blueberry and white chocolate empanta with vanilla ice cream. That was todie for! I usually get their cheesecake because she makes incredible, unique and delicious combinations. The Margaritas arebetter than in the past. They taste like a true margarita because they don't taste like they use a "mix". Our waitress wasfriendly and knowledgeable about the menu. We have been there several times prior to the pandemic but not during the past 2years. We loved all of our food and drinks and are so glad they survived the quarantine. Read more

Best chimis in Tucson. Truly a mom and pop place. We don't waste our time with those "authentic" places down in South Tucson.... They're all over priced Tex-mex. Pic added. Told ya.... Best in Tucson... Period. It comes like this EVERY time!!! Read more

Delicious food! Came on recommendation of a local person. Be patient, the waitress took care of the entire restaurant and did an... amazing job of keeping our drinks refilled and fresh chips and salsa (with kick) on the table until our food was ready! Read more

Great salsa! Fish tacos were flavorful, with some yummy sauce.. good size portions and great service..
