Olitas Cantina & Grille - Santa Cruz (CA)

3 /5 Vincent HT: We came here for a Mothers Day lunch last weekend and surprisingly we were able to find parking quickly and there wasnt a wait to be seated. We were seated next to the window facing the boardwalk so the view was nice. The host brought us water and chips and our server came by soon after. 5 stars for both of them. Our cocktails, chips and salsa were all decent. Our food arrived and it all looked amazing. Unfortunately, while it all looked nice, it all lacked flavor. My shrimp tacos just had cabbage and soggy, tiny breaded shrimp. Even the beans and rice were lacking any kind of flavor. Everyone in our party of 4 felt the same about their food. Highly disappointed in our $130+ lunch. This might be a good spot for happy hour/bar food or something. Thank you to the waitress for the great service.

5 /5 Gaby Giacchino: The chicken enchiladas with green tomatillo sauce were absolutely delicious. Very flavorful and great rice and beans. We also had the blue corn tamales with shrimp and little scallops and it was very tasty and had a generous amount of seafood. Our server was so sweet and helpful and attentive. I was glad she recommended the green sauce for the enchiladas. A wonderful evening!

5 /5 C. C.: The vegetarian enchiladas are to die for!!!! This place is great but it is not often you find vegetarian food like this. The hamburger was also something wonderful Watching the seals play while enjoying a great dinner. Definitely will be back.
