   I’ll start by saying I’ve come to La Latina twice before my most recent visit, had a good time each time. However this visit was extremely disappointing and I feel like the staff and management did not care at all about our parties experience. My group came here for a birthday celebration; Our reservation was at 10pm and we did not end up being seated until around 10:40pm. When we were finally seated and after ordering our first round of sides and drinks our waitress comes up to our table and stated the kitchen was closing in 10 minutes so we needed to get our final food orders in. We were obviously unhappy as it wasn’t our fault that we had so little time to order and eat when it is supposed to be an all you can eat experience. We explained this to the waitress and she said unfortunately the kitchen was closing. One member of our party asked to speak with the manager as we felt this was unfair and terrible service on the restaurants part. After a few minutes the waitress came back without the manager and said they would make an exception to allow us to order more food, as if they were doing us a favour when it was their fault it took over 40 minutes to seat us in the first place. We were able to put in one more food order for the table, however we did not even end up receiving everything we ordered. Apart from the food issue the service in general was slow. It took forever to get our drinks each time we placed an order -the meat selection was served in small portions and doesn’t come very often. They list it as all inclusive for the two hour time limit, but seem to ensure they limit how much you can actually get by taking forever to bring your items. In all fairness I understand it’s a Saturday night so they’re busy, but our party felt there was very little consideration given to us despite being there for a celebration& waiting almost an hour for our table. We were looking to have my sister in law’s birthday here in march but I’m hesitant now to return in a group

   Came here last night. February 4/2023. Booked a reservation for 8pm. We didn’t want to sit on a high top table so we asked if we could wait and the hostess Liv said it would be another 15-20mins for a table. We ended up getting a drink at the bar while we waited and it was included in our $75 all inclusive meal. The girl said we would have a booth if we waited and we agreed. We noticed a booth being cleaned up and asked how come we aren’t getting seated there and she said it’s for a table of 4 however we saw 2 people ended up sitting there which was not right. We didn’t want to complain or say anything so we left it alone but it was a bad start to the evening at this restaurant. Once we sat down we ordered our apps and drinks. The apps came a lot faster. The drinks took 20-25mins to come. We ended up waiting for the drinks and then started to eat. My husband drank old fashion and they ended up telling us they were out of old fashion at 8:40pm. So he only had 1 and ended up drinking something else. Very odd to run out of a drink early into the night. There were servers coming around with the meats however there was very minimal portions and not all the meats were available. We asked for certain cuts of meats and they never came. Very deceiving to have all these different cuts of meat but nobody serving it. On top of it they are very strict with the time (2hrs seating and 1.5hrs for drinks) We noticed drinks took forever to get to us and there was barely meats being handed out so there’s no way we could have tried everything if it was available. I would not go back here. The service is poor and they don’t care about your experience. Our server Avril apologized for the drinks coming so slow. We told her it wasn’t her fault. She did try her best to make sure we had a great experience. Stephanie was great as well ensuring we got our drinks. Manager Milan was cleaning tables and walking around. Poor management on his part.

   Overall good vibe and atmosphere. Food- The expectation is that you keep ordering from the appetizers so you get full. If your expectations is to get a variety of meats along with endless servings, that won’t be the case. At most during our 2 hour sitting we’ve must have gotten a total combined serving of no more of 5-6oz of steak and chicken. Service - it took about 20 mins until a waiter took out drink order and that is only because we called one over. Now, keep in mind that you only have 2hrs so these 20 mins without any sort of drinks or food go towards that 2 hrs. Not even 1.5hr into out meal we were already been asked about dessert because they wanted the table. The waiter did not have any sort of good customer service and all she did was remind us that they need the table, she then started to clear the water glasses so we would hurry up. This was annoying specially since we weren’t served until nearly 20 mins of being sat at our table. I just say the host/manager I suppose was friendly and went table to table to check in along with the dancer. The dancer later offered to sit us at the bar if we wanted to stay longer which was super accommodating. These are things that make an experience a whole lot better. If the waitress would have offers to accommodate our party so we enjoy the rest of the night instead of clearing the table then it would have been a better approach. All in all good food, good atmosphere, service and food portions could be better

   Tip is high and mandatory, service is good only for 2 hours, after 2 hours they will kick you out of the restaurant, ok thank you bye, in less that 10 minutes they come to the table to say I need the table. Portions of food are less than small.

    We book a table for new year eve , thinking they will be having something going and was really boring, let’s start that they don’t even have the tv whit the countdown music was super boring and for a night like new years was really not what we expected, also service was really slow for a beer and a whiskey took 45 minutes to arrive when the place was no really that busy, the server told us they only have 2 bartenders , was just really disappointed since the place is really nice, food is amazing and have su much potential to be great place.

    The waitress would come to our table every 5 min for the first 1 hour which was uncomfortable and frustrating, when finally we wanted to order more in 1 hour, we couldn’t get a hold of her and had to wait for half an hour for our cocktails. But the food and drinks quality is good as well as the music!

    Good food but extremely slow service. Had to wait over an hour just for the drinks and required multiple reminders. Only 2 staff managing the front and serving the food asbwell. Birria tacos and ribs were sold out by 7pm on a weeknight. The other food we ordered were good. I hope they can fix the staffing issues to help improve the experience at La Latina:)

    This was a treat! Nice casual, lively, setting with warm ambience and comfortable, spacious, seating. Excellent service, excellent food. Not necessarily Mexican but a refreshing mix of Latin food. During our visit there was happy hour, $10 tacos, and a really fun Mariachi band. We had it all, drinks, appetizers, tacos and dessert! Enjoyed it very much.

    Food was really good and the mango loco drink. Service was a bit slow but probably cause it was a Saturday and it was busy but the server was very nice and helpful. The atmosphere is amazing, they had live music so it was loud but we didn’t mind! Parking at the back of building but it fills up quick. Will definitely be back!

    From the moment you walk in, you can tell that this is one of the authentic Latin restaurants, they have the latest Latin music playing but also throw in some older ones for nostalgia, they have live music as well which was great. The way the restaurant is designed, makes it feel like you're in another country, the food is great quality and you can tell that they have experienced chefs, the Tostones are what you expect them to be, the salsa and guacamole with the nacho chips are as fresh as can be with bold flavour, the drinks are as if you're on vacation with the portions they give you. The night I went, didn't have any dancing so I don't know if that is something they do or not. Definitely will be going again! Great place for dates.

    Great experience from start to finish. Went on a Thursday and was quickly greeted and sat. We didn’t like the table we were sat at and the hostess had no hesitation in moving us to a bigger booth. We were close to the DJ booth and loved the music, great reggaeton mix with classic and trending songs. As for the drinks, we order the new queen of the south, a mix of sweet and spicy, delicious. We also ordered the mango loco and la Paloma, excellent drink choices recommended by our very friendly server. For apps we ordered the ceviche, I could not imagine that sweet potato, mango, and passion fruit would pair so nicely with the shrimp, but it did, highly recommend! As for our entrees, we ordered the mushroom tacos, and pork ribs. The tacos were amazing, a burst of flavours you could not put your finger on. Everything was amazing, and definitely worth the price, fair prices and great service, food and ambiance.

    The food is really good, portions are pretty decent sized but not much to choose from on the menu, wish there was more to offer with food wise. Was a little disappointed that there was no live entertainment as it’s posted on their website and in the restaurant that there is. The service was good, staff were friendly. The only complaint would be that i found that it seemed no one was assigned to our table it was just a bunch of waiters walking around and it took a while for our drinks. Could be a bit more organized. Place is VERY clean.

    Pineapple drink is so good especially during happy hour. Wagyu steak will suit any steak lover's taste as it comes with 2 types of salt, green sauce, onions, and picked something (not sure what it is but it's goodd). Put your bites into what you want and enjoy~ Tacos are also good .. tried the brisket and shrimp. I like all the food so far. Vibe is super chill. Can be loud with the live music but live music is a big plus imo. Covers of nostalgic songs to brighten the mood, especially after a drink or two. ;) Excellent for date night / group dinners. 👏
