    Ceviche de Camaron
    Monica L.

    Came to this place and it was a great experience. Our server was on top of the menu with suggestions left and right. The location was family friendly but parking was a little tough to navigate to. They do have parking in the back, but we didn't know so we parked a little further ways on the street. We shared the ceviche, i had a burrito (dry) with Al pastor, my partner had the same but wet with chili verde, the kids shared a quesabirria plate. The food was delicious and had so much flavor. The horchata was good too! House made. I wish I would have tried the jamaica.

    The ceviche was pretty spicy, but it was probably the best I've ever had. I also had the aguachiles verdes and it was really good, and a healthier choice compared to other items on the menu. Everyone enjoyed their meals, no complaints. The margaritas are strong and the portions are generous.

    Had lunch here with friends today. Here are my thoughts. I love Mexican food, so I love trying new places. Pros Staff are awesome Quality of the food is good Servers we excellent Variety from the menu was huge Time for food to arrive at the table was fast Cons The bowls they put their salsa in were very small. All gone after dipping 5 chips. Not sure why they do this. Seating a bit crowded for parties of 8 or more Prices were on the high side Portions on the soft shell tacos were small! See photo Overall a good place, but no wow factor! I would rate it 3.5 if I can. Not sure I would come back, but enjoyed my time there with friends.

    Very good food. Our server Joel- was on top of it, even with a full house. The place was overall good vibes with people there to celebrate birthdays and just watching the World Cup. The place has a separate bar area which looked like fun. Lots of parking and they made space for us, so no wait! Excited to go back soon

    Came for a birthday celebration with a party of 16. The waiter was very attentive, brought drinks, and made us feel very comfortable right away. He brought the food out for the kids first, which was great. The food was good, and the fresh seafood was delicious. Everything we ordered came out exactly as we ordered it. It was a great place to celebrate a birthday.

    It's been a while since our last visit, but my family decided to drop in for Sunday dinner. There was a 30-minute wait, which gave me time to admire the new front addition--it looks like they're building a patio to keep up with the high demand! Just to be clear: this isn't your standard "Gringo" Mexican food. It is 100% authentic and tastes just like a home-cooked meal. Everything from the handmade tortillas to the salsas is top-tier. Whether you get the mole, the molcajete, or the enchiladas, you really can't go wrong. My only disappointment was finding out they took the sopes off the menu; they used to be huge and "the bomb." We were a party of five adults and one toddler, and they applied an automatic 18% gratuity (which they do for parties of 6+). Our server, Claudia, was fantastic! My only real gripe is the price hike. Enchiladas used to be under $13, but now almost everything is $20+. It's getting into steakhouse price territory, but the food is still delicious and the staff works incredibly hard. I noticed the happy hour menu. Not what it use to be, $7.77 once upon a time. But still some relief for your wallet. I missed coming here, nice to be back.

    They are still under construction to finish new patio area at the entrance. We had to park the car toward exit and found no more entrance from the Anaheim St. So slow during late lunch. The service was slower than usual. We ordered the same ones, 2 crispy taco combination and my 2 chimichanga combo. Same quality and same ambiance except new construction area. Little noisy.... Hopefully they finish the new patio area soon. I don't like too much noises when I eat. We loved the Spanish rice, beans, warm chips and salsa. Their house margarita was so good for $14. We miss happy hour from 4. Cheaper margarita, cocktails.... Great place if you like the real Mexican foods.

    Shredded 3 Taquitos A La Carte / Fajitas Mixta and Reposado margaritas!! All

    Whuuut??? Los Compadres, where have you been on my life??? As I am on my way to HB I have accidentally found you along the way. Taquitos were ok - but the fajitas and margies were spot on!! I will definitely be back when in the LB Service, food and ambiance all excellent !!

    Came here for a nice dinner and drinks and were not disappointed. The outside of the restaurant is being remodeled to accommodate outdoor seating. We probably had the best waiter here, he was nice and attentive. We went straight for the meal as it was getting late. We ordered Bacon wrap Shrimp, Cheese Enchilada, Carne Asada plate, Shrimp soup, and Guacamole. We added a Blended Margarita, delicious. Well-blended tasty Margarita. Overall our food was good.

    Tacos
    Joseline M.

    We came on a Saturday for "early dinner" around 4pm so the restaurant was pretty empty. The vibe here was actually really nice, intimate, spacious, and with fun music that made it feel lively without being overwhelming. The service was fast and friendly, which I definitely appreciated. Unfortunately, the food didn't live up to the atmosphere. I ordered 3 tacos (pastor and carnitas) with rice and beans. The pastor was dry and really lacked flavor, and the carnitas were overly fatty and could've used more salt and seasoning overall. The beans were bland too, though the rice was the highlight of the plate; flavorful and well-cooked. I also ordered a margarita, which looked great and came in a generous size, but it was very weak and mostly tasted like juice. Overall, great vibe and good service, but the food itself just didn't deliver.

    Michelada Chabela
    Cindy R.

    This is great Mexican food! No wonder it is always packed! We don't come very often because of that last statement, but it is certainly worth it for special occasions. We came for my mom's birthday a couple of years ago, and we were a group of 7-8 adults and 5 kids, and we were attended to nicely. The menu is also quite expansive and has almost any type of Mexican food one could crave from tacos and burritos to fish plates, from fajitas to cocteles, from chilaquiles and other breakfast options to caldos. More recently, we came for my brother's-in-law birthday. We were a group of 9 adults and 3 kids. They were very accommodating to the few of us that split plates or with minor substitutions with things on the menu. I almost always get the coctel de camaron because it is my favorite place to get them. The shrimp is always perfectly cooked and abundant, the broth nicely flavored and there is plenty of chopped veggies. The green habanero sauce on the table went very well in my coctel. It comes served with saltines by default, but we requested tostadas. To drink I ordered the Michelada Chabela with a Pacifico. It was a little too sweet and salty for me toward the end. I ordered it because of the addition of Worcestershire sauce, but did not really care for the tamarindo straw or that amount of chamoy and tajin inside the actual drink. In the future, I think I will stick with the regular michelada and request for a couple of dashes of W sauce to be added in. My parents and my sister each ordered the fajitas mixtas, and those looked delicious as well. I like that you can request frijoles de la olla (whole cooked beans) in place of the refried ones. I will have to make it a point to come more than once a year, especially after seeing their happy hour menu. Thank you, Compadres!

    The service was amazing - everyone was attentive and kind. I like that there's a lot by the restaurant so parking isn't an issue. The food is decently priced and you get a good amount of food. The food is delicious, highly recommend.

    3 Sopes
    rhonda s.

    A co-worker asked me to lunch and recommended Los Compadres. i have passed this restaurant countless times and never stopped. i will say before i get started that i have been missing out. We were seated immediately. The restaurant is a little dark. we both had to use our flashlights on our cells. Claudia was our waitress, we didn't have to wait long before our waters with lime and chips and salsa came. The chips and salsa was very good. the salsa was just right, not too mild and a little kick. i ordered the 1 Chicken Enchilada & Chicken Taco Dorado combo $20, she order 3 Chicken Sopes $16. our meals came reasonably quick considering it seemed like they were fairly busy. it was noon. The food was delicious. seasoned perfect! even the beans and rice were chef's kiss! the portions were big and embarrassingly, i ate all my food and it was not a lunch portion. My favorite go-to establishment had been a Mexican restaurant food chain in Long Beach, until now. i cannot wait to go back.

Each of these items were delicious, but I'd return for the ceviche and chilaquiles. The ceviche was a delicious mix of sweet and salty. Their tortilla chips are made fresh in-house and paired perfectly with the fresh cut fish. I was also impressed by their cocktails.

I stopped by on a Friday afternoon and waited about 20 minutes for a table. The wait was well worth it because each dish offered an explosion of flavors. My favorite dish was the birria, with the salmon ceviche as a close second. The mole was great too, but I'd say the other two dishes were more memorable and something I'd return for. I can't recommend the birria enough, as the flavors were reminiscent of what I've had in Mexico, very authentic. The space is small and can feel a bit tight, but sometimes the best food comes from these types of "hole in the wall" places. Ultimately, I'd say give Lola's a try! You can't go wrong with Mexican food!

The soup here lacks the tastebud awakening zip that Don Chato's has. The ono fish taco experience was my fault... I hate fried fish taco, so I had lofty expectations, but due to the fact that I do not prefer corn tortillas, guacamole or raw onions, led to much disappointment since It has all three. Totally my fault. The butternut enchilada was lacking in the expected savoriness... this is being polite. The potato taquito was okay... but I am not a taquito person, so if you are I would seriously encourage you to try it. The star of the table was the Mexican corn. It may not compete with Cornman in Lincoln Heights, but it was decent. I scraped off the onions and toppings on the ono tacos, put the fish on the flour tortillas that another person didn't want, and topped the fish with refried beans, street corn and a but if the chicken tortilla soup broth to make due. When you are driving more than 30 minutes for this experience, I think you would agree that it was less that a proper way to celebrate a birthday. Oh and if there isn't any street parking. It'll cost you about 9 bucks in the lot. I didn't use the restroom, so I cant review its cleanliness. Our waitress was flawless taking orders and delivering food The restaurant itself has a great layout and an outdoor courtyard complete with propane heaters and umbrellas - I loved that... but my favorite part was out front, no not the seating area in the former parking spaces, nope... it was the collapsed woman on the sidewalk, walking her dog with snot running out of her nose because she was huffing some aerosol can of whatever. This truly set the mood upon arrival. Two stars for being close to a lot of other food choices to visit afterward.

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.

Unfortunately, the huevos rancheros were pretty underwhelming. They came with two over-easy eggs over a tortilla that was very soggy. I personally prefer the tortilla to have some crispness so you can actually bite into it and get that contrast in texture, but this one was completely soft underneath the eggs and sauce. The ranchero sauce itself was very basic and plain. It wasn't bad, but there wasn't anything particularly flavorful or memorable about it. The beans were fine, but I didn't care for the rice. My partner's beef sandwich was actually decent and probably the better of the two dishes, although it still wasn't anything extraordinary. He also ordered a Paloma, but unfortunately that was disappointing as well. He could really taste what seemed like lower-quality alcohol, and overall the drink tasted mostly like watered-down Squirt rather than a well-balanced Paloma. Overall, nothing was necessarily terrible, but the experience was pretty average. I was hoping for more flavor and better textures from the food, and a better-balanced cocktail. Unfortunately, nothing really stood out enough to make the meal memorable. The staff and waiter were nice and pleasant and restrooms were clean.
