verbatim, from Google
“I have to say this has to be one of the best authentic Mexican restaurants in the city; I come all the way from the South Side to eat here at least twice a month. 😋”
“Call ahead to order and I thought I heard clearly when I asked for the total and heard $22 even (50 cents rounded, but ok). When I arrived I was told $32, and when asking to confirm the total I received a nod. There must be an updated price menu because the math is not mathing.”
“The food was definitely worth the 45 minute ride. I loved everything about my food.”
“I had the best steak Gorditas ever made ! Run don’t walk and get you some! Fast service with a smile. The rice and beans were seasoned to perfection!!! 10 out of 10 I highly recommend!!!”
“The ladies who cook and take your orders are the most pleasant people. Tacos are always great, and that fresh hibiscus tea is amazing! Remember, they're not open on Monday's happened to me a few times lol. Try them out!”
“I love Los Olivos….my favorite is the Gordita ..but soon as I learn more Spanish foods…I will order from them.. I get the Gordita almost every morning on my way to work.”
