    Food portions were tiny, prices were high, orders were served to the party at 5 to 10 minutes apart so we had people sitting with food for a long time waiting for others to get their food. The margarita was one of the worst I have ever had. There was an extra 4% fee labor of love fee tacked on at the end. This was our 3rd time eating there and each time it has gotten worse. The prices are higher and the serving size has gotten almost laughably small. I had the burrito bowl and in just 2 months time it went from a nice portion to a small bowl, higher price and tasted like Chipotle, it lacked any unique flavor. We live within walking distance and will not be back.

    Food quality and portion size is perfect. Drinks were ok, but could be better. Im not sure if it was the brand of Tequila, but they just didnt taste as good as we had hoped.

    Muchas gracias, Amy! Though we're shocked to see you didn't enjoy your cocktails...we PRIDE ourselves on those. Of course we have 100+ tequilas, so we're happy to make it any way you like!

    It was our anniversary and they made it very special. There was an anniversary card waiting on the table for us which was such a nice touch! The food is outstanding. I loved the whole grilled fish. The cocktails are also creative and well balanced. Our server was the best, too. She's so genuine, friendly and laid back. I never felt like I was waiting for anything and we enjoyed chatting with her.

    Food good, service poor. Our waitress spent more time on her phone at the podium then seeing if our food was what we ordered and dead it to our liking. Had to flag her down a few times throughout the meal.
    LA BODEGAResponded on 30 August 2026
    Thank you for the grace given in your feedback...we take these things very seriously and you can see by our previous reviews that we are known for the opposite in terms of our hospitality. That said, it sounds like we came up short here. We'll continue to work on being better and look forward to showing you the next time in!
