If you want big portions, legit authentic food, and prices that won't personally offend you--this is your spot. The pork shank? Fall-off-the-bone, no-effort-required kind of delicious. The tacos are (I do wish they had à la carte instead of plates, but honestly their rice and refried beans slap so I'll allow it). The ceviche is basically an entrée disguised as an appetizer, and the chicken arroz soup hits every time. They bring out chips and salsa immediately (as they should), service is quick, and there's plenty of parking--which already puts them ahead of half the restaurants in SoCal.

Decided to try something other than our usual tacos and burritos, and no better place to do that…read morethan Enrique's! In addition to all those basic menu items they have some stellar creations. I opted for the carne asada plate - simple and not spicy. Hubby ordered the Carne en su Jugo- very spicy with tomatillo broth and serranos, cilantro, bacon and onions. Both of our entrees came with bean soup and tortillas. The chips/ salsa starter was addictive. Huge basket of fresh warm chips, and a salsa like no other! Chunks of veggies and just the right spice. It was hard to get those chunks on the chips but it was delicious. My carne asada was tasty, a large portion with grilled scallion and rice. I wish some of the "bean soup" had been pureed to be a bit thicker but the broth was good, with a variety of beans. Hubby's dish had an interesting flavor, very spicy. He wished the broth had some rice, though, to accompany it. We could come back weekly to try many more entrees. Their salads sound tasty, too. Service was great.

We decided to grab lunch at 2nd and PCH after going to the Sunday Farmer's Market, and decided to…read morefinally check out Ola. Palapa next door offers the same food menu but has more drink options. Many opted for outdoor seating on the terrace due to the gorgeous views, but not wanting to wait we agreed to indoor seating. The interior of the restaurant is also very beautiful. The bathrooms were too dark for my tastes though. Our waitress was absolutely phenomenal, super friendly and anticipating all of our needs (water refills, leftover containers, etc.). Service overall by all staff was friendly. We were actually presently surprised with the taste of the food, thinking it might be more Americanized but they actually had very authentic and tasty totopos (tortilla chips). The tomato salsa that came with the chips was also very refreshing. We asked for hot sauce too and the house habanero salsa really packed a punch! We ordered carne asada nachos, pork belly chilaquiles (from the brunch menu), a breakfast burrito, poke, and steamed clams. The steamed clams came in a rich tomato broth and the breakfast burrito was massive. The poke was just okay and the chilaquiles a bit too soggy for me, and the carne asada nachos a bit dry. Nonetheless, presentation and portion sizes were respectable. The last comment is that food here is quite pricey but that reflects the likely high rent of a restaurant in 2nd and PCH. Ola still exceeded expectations and provided a more than pleasant meal.

This place is a staple at Seal Beach-just cross the street and you are at the pier…read more There is a window out to the sidewalk for beach-hoers to order and get food from. But there is also a cute dining room, too. With a little tile roof overhang, lots of ceramic veggie strings, and murals on the walls, it's actually charming. The service is also great--service with a smile. They bring chips and salsa to the table (the chips are fried full size corn tortillas). We ordered some tacos (ground beef, chicken, and shredded beef) and a red chili beef with green chilies burrito. Everything was delicious. The food comes out FAST. Like in a couple of minutes. And it's is really affordable.

Portions were mid , the flavors felt bland and overpriced for what you get. The biggest disappointment was how expensive everything was compared to the quality. I don't mind paying more for amazing Mexican food, but this just didn't deliver. There are way better spots for the same price (or less). Service was fine, but overall I left feeling underwhelmed and wouldn't come back.

The food itself was actually decent and flavorful, so I'll give credit where it's due. However, the service was extremely disappointing. The employee who took our order had a very negative and dismissive attitude toward us from the start. It made the entire interaction uncomfortable and honestly took away from what could have been a good dining experience. I'm not sure what the reason for the attitude was, but as a Black couple we couldn't help but feel unwelcome based on how we were treated. Customer service matters just as much as the food, and no one should feel uncomfortable when spending their money at a business. Because of the way we were treated, we won't be returning. Hopefully management takes feedback like this seriously and works on improving the customer service experience for everyone.

I don't usually leave bad reviews but these tacos earned this. I got the "pork dorado" "potato" and "chicken mushroom" tacos.

I was craving a bean and cheese burrito and my husband went to buy one here…read more When he brought it home I was happy to finally have a bean and cheese burrito! When I took the first bite I realized that the beans were very bland and tasted a bit weird! The flour tortilla was good and so was the cheddar cheese but the beans I didn't like them. My husband bought 2 other burritos a shredded meat burrito and a red beef burrito. The shredded meat burrito was good, just the right amount of seasoning but the red beef burrito was too salty for us. The price of the burritos were $18 bucks each, pretty pricey for burritos. My husband said he's not going back to this place and I totally agree! His experience with the staff was not nice either. So I decided to give this place a low score for their unfriendly attitude, bland refried and salty red beef and for being pricey! And in the words of Willy Wanka (Gene Wilder): "I said good day sir!"
