We felt the food took a really long time to arrive. Our waitress was very friendly, though. The chips, however, were about the only thing that any of us thought were very good. Overall, the menu and taste of the food was disappointing. Very bland and the meat really was flavorless and had an odd texture.

We (our extended family) would visit way more if you were open Sundays.....the service was awful, slow slow....no water till we reminded twice, no silverware till we asked twice.. The food is uniquily delicious. We have been to La Olla at least 8 times, and the service is usually a problem. We come anyway for the food. But we always eat out on Sundays and would love it if you were open.
