We enjoyed the ceviche tostadas, caldo de camarón, potato taquitos, café de olla, and Mexicafé. Every dish exceeded our expectations. The best part of our visit was Molly! She delivered exceptional customer service, friendly, attentive, charismatic, and genuinely caring. She made wonderful recommendations, anticipated our needs, and made us feel truly welcomed. Molly elevated an already amazing dining experience into an unforgettable one. If you visit Ola Restobar, ask for Molly. You'll be glad you did! We can't wait to come back with family and friends.

The experience at Ola was extremely disappointing, and the biggest reason was the poor management…read moreby Jorge. When we arrived, the line was already very long. Jorge came outside multiple times, clearly saw how many people were waiting, and even recorded the crowd on his phone three different times for social media. Knowing the capacity of the restaurant, he could have easily informed everyone that the remaining people in line would likely not get in. Instead, we waited over three hours with no communication. While we were waiting, I repeatedly watched people call Jorge. He would come outside, greet them, and bring them straight inside. I personally saw this happen at least six different times. When it was finally our turn to speak with the host, we were told there were no seats left, that we would have to stand, and that we wouldn't even be able to order food. I confronted Jorge about letting those other groups in ahead of everyone else. His response was that he knew them personally and that they were friends of the restaurant owners. That explanation only made the situation worse. My wife had just finished a 14-hour hospital shift, and we came here hoping to enjoy the game together. Instead, we spent three hours waiting only to be treated as though our time didn't matter. What was most shocking was Jorge's attitude. He literally told me, "They won't do anything to me if you post this. I'm friends with the owner." If that's the mindset of management, it's no surprise customers are treated this way. It truly felt like only friends and family received special treatment while everyone else was left waiting without honesty or respect. I have no issue waiting when things are busy, but I do expect transparency, fairness, and professionalism. Unfortunately, this experience showed none of those qualities.

However, I look forward to a future visit where we can take advantage of the campsite fire pit scenario. On the brews side, I got a Sabor del Sol lager and then a michelada made with that same Mexican lager. The other beers that were ordered by others in our party were also well received. I appreciated their kids menu and I got their breakfast burrito for myself, which hit the spot. Great portion size and flavor. I look forward to a future visit.

What really made our experience stand out was Camila. She was absolutely amazing--fun, friendly, attentive, and full of positive energy.

Between the atmosphere, the energy, and Camila taking such great care of us, we had an awesome time. Definitely a spot I'll be coming back to.

I have been wanting to try this place for a while, it looks like a lot of fun. We came on a Friday…read morenight around seven. You seat yourself, we chose a spacious seating section to the right. There's a bathroom right here so that's convenient. Unfortunately, the start of the experience wasn't great. A nice person came to take our drink order said she would be right back. Between now and then it's been 20 minutes, and 4 different staff/servers have stopped by our table to ask us if we need anything. In which we've been replying yes we would like to order. Each one of them responds the same way, ill notify your server. I don't really blame the girl though, they're pretty short staff. She's all over the place, she probably just forgot about it or didn't realize how much time was passing by. I mean, what can she do at the end of the day. It would've been nice if one of the other four people would've taken our order though. They're not just helping out as the customers, but they're also helping out there staff as well. I got to the point where we were debating about leaving, but we had already ordered our drinks. Aside from that the vibe is pretty cool. I really enjoy the music they have been playing. They also have a live band. It's good for parties and groups. The staff is friendly, they're nice The drinks and the food are very good. Unfortunately, the wings were not very hot when they came out. We both think the wings were probably done first, and just sitting there for a little while while the rest of the food was being made. Because we were able to very easily pick up our wings and eat them no problem. They were barely warm. I'm not sure if I would be back again just because they seem so short staffed and they don't seem like they communicate very well with each other. But I did enjoy the overall experience.

This place was a total random date find for me, but glad I stopped in. Everything from the rowed Xmas lights on the ceiling, to the custom avant-garde wooden bar top speaks late 60s/early 70s cozy-chic to me. On top of this, the music and clientele rocks and, as a bonus, the interior is decked out in Rat Pack movie memorabilia -- apropos as the spot is, I imagine, named for the 1955 Sinatra film! Stop in and say hello to the killer bartenders.

I got to try the Dirty Thai Tea and my bf got his own beer. Trying the Dirty Thai Tea, it was extremely sweet. Too sweet to the point I was forcing myself to drink it, but my bf asked the bartender to make it less sweet, which tasted much better! They added oat milk to it. In the end, it just. tasted like a normal thai tea and not so much like an alcoholic drink anymore haha. I was totally fine with it anyways. Beers are solid as well. Plenty of seating area if you're not sitting at the bar. The bar is a bit tight. Luckily you can bring your drink around. Parking can be a bit difficult if the plaza is too busy, but not impossible.

And took responsibility So now I change my review to 5 stars. I came to Gladiators Brew around 2:50 PM to watch the Argentina CPV World Cup match. Around 3:10 PM, I ordered food. About five minutes later, a bartender came over and asked if I wanted something to drink. I told him I still hadn't received my food yet and asked if he knew what I had ordered. He said, "No, I just got here," so I pointed to the other employee who had taken my order. After waiting nearly 30 more minutes, I still hadn't received either my soda or my meal. I finally walked up to the bartender, and he said he was busy. About 10 minutes later, he brought my soda but never apologized for the delay or acknowledged the long wait. Another 15 minutes passed, and I had still not received my food. I flagged him down again, and he asked, "What did you order?" I reminded him that I had ordered from the other employee. I waited another 10 minutes with no food. At that point, it had been almost an hour since I ordered, so I finally got the attention of the employee who originally took my order. He simply said, "OK, OK." As I write this review, it's 4:02 PM, and I still have not received my food. I understand places get busy, but the lack of communication, follow-up, and even a simple apology made this a very frustrating experience. I came here to enjoy the game, but instead spent most of the first half wondering if my order had been forgotten.
