This place is a great place not only for the family but also for the girls night out. They have happy hour daily until 7pm. Try their spicy margarita. They have great dinner specials too. The free parking in the back is awesome since street parking can be hard. The burritos are large, I loved the mixed plate of 1... More

This is a must if you like Mexican food. We noticed there was a line outside this place for several nights in row so we went early and walked right in. The food was fresh and delicious, salsa was tasty. The menu was varied and I am sure you could find something for everyone. We were too full for dessert... More

We were in the area and I was craving Mexican Food. Las Olas was the highest rated Mexican restaurant in Carlsbad so I set the gps and off we went. We were happy to fine parking on the street and to get a window seat. We were seated right away for supper. Our drink orders were taken and chips and... More

We were visiting from out of town and saw this restaurant on the internet with good reviews. We were happy with our choice mainly because of our waiter Jennifer.

Las Olas is a fun place to meet friends for a meal, very festive with a mixture of south of the border and surfer atmosphere. The food is ok, but not great. The service is always friendly but sometimes a little slow (but that could be because we usually go with a large group).

I love Los Olas. Environment, decor, staff, food... Indoor/outdoor. Food always fresh. Best carnitas around. The fish and carne asada are excellent as well. The taco plates are big enough to share or take home for tomorrow. Not a big tequila drinker but they also make excellent margaritas.

We had lunched at Las Olas in Cardiff by the Sea and found it to be an outstanding restaurant. Their eatery in Carlsbad is equally good. We had lunch there with another couple and our entrees included shrimp tacos, a beef burrito, and chili rellenos with sides of salad, beans, rice, etc. The margaritas were adequate if not outstanding. The... More

First visit to Carlsbad Village and we took a recommendation to eat at Las Olas. Yummy food & the complimentary nachos & salsa was amazing! We were a bit lost when we entered, though. because a sign said "wait to be seated" but no one was there to greet us. We stood around uncertainly for a few minutes till we... More

It has been a year since I was there, but the atmosphere was fun and exciting and the food was AWESOME!!! I would definitely eat there again!!!
