    Arrived with a friend a few minutes after 11am on a Saturday. We were immediately seated and brought chips and salsa. The salsa is some of the best I've had. Nice flavor and heat. Shortly afterwards our waitress showed up to take our drink order. I ordered a bottle of beer and my friend ordered the Long Island Ice Tea. We looked over the menus and it didn't take long to decide what we wanted. The artwork inside is very nice. The booths need some care, however. The one across from us on both sides was ratty looking. Our waitress returned with our drink after a few minutes and took out order. I tried to order the lunch Chimichanga on the menu, but was told they are no longer doing lunch specials, dinner specials only. Then why is there a page in your menu stating you do? I let it go and order the Chicken Chimichanga without beans on the side. My friend ordered the Chicken Fajitas with corn Tortillas. We ate the chips and salsa while we waited. My friend said his drinks looked weird but tasted good. The place begun to fill up very fast. A few minutes of waiting and our food arrived. I couldn't believe the amount of food my friend received! That was enough for 3 meals. His only complaint was the tortilla shells were stuck together and tore when trying to separate. My Chimichanga was excellent! The rice was kind of on the bland side. Bathrooms were clean. I did pass what looked like a closet on the way to the bathroom. The door was open and I could see a pretty nasty looking shower. My friend informed me the place was once a truck stop when he was a child 40 years ago. Our waitress was on point and we never had to flag her down for anything.

    Stopped in here for lunch today, and it totally hit the spot! I've been in a couple of times previously, and I always try something new. This time I got the classic Arroz con Pollo and let me tell you it was the best version I've ever had! If you're a fan of queso, they load you up with it on the dish in addition to serving you a healthy portion for their lunch price ($8.99)! I definitely will be back again to try some more items but at least I know I have a dish to fall back on!

    Love the tacos de asada tacos. I do wish the limes were cut bigger though so they were easier to work with and squeeze.

    Lalos Restaurante Mexicano - Chips and salsa

    This Valentine's Day my fiancé and I decided that we would like to do something special together as…read morewe don't really get much time to do so. So we walked down the block to Lalos cause it was what we decided sounded good. When we got there the place was extremely chaotic. And the waitress that took us to our table was very rude. We were sat in the overflow area which at that point might as well have been a storage closet. The table and chairs in said room were most definitely not even cleaned off. And the menus were covered in smeared food. The service was slow and almost non existent. When we were finally able to order the food we got was made wrong so we sent it back to be fixed. When it came back the meat in the burritos that we had received had been nothing but fat. I was irritated to the point that we decided that it would be best that we just paid and left. What we ordered was not worth almost $50. Would most definitely not recommend this place.

    If you liked the Lalos Lima Road location...you will like this one too! The same great tasting…read morefood and excellent service. This location may not be as busy as the Lima Road store. The Garrett location is a bit hard to find as you have to get about two blocks off the main drag. The building is predominant so you can't miss it. The parking lot is laid out oddly. If you have to park in the west lots you may park in grass or mud when wet. The outside of the building isn't too attractive nor is the covered deck. However the food and interior easily make up for it. The inside is moderately large and spacious. You feel comfortable while dinning in the well decorated chairs and tables. The bar area is very attractive if that is your hang out. The chips are nice and crisp with only a slight taste of grease. The salsa will on the spicy side of mild with a fine-chopped texture. Both make great starters. I tried the enchiladas supremes. I really liked the cheese and bean enchiladas. Very smooth, easy to cut and nice traditional flavors. The ground meat was okay. It had some stronger beef flavor and was moist. The chicken enchiladas seemed a bit dry and tough to me. Overall...a good experience. Drive to Garrett to get away from the crowds and enjoy outstanding Mexican food!
