“Go where the locals go” will always deliver and Olla is a great example of this adage! Is 12:30pm too early for a carafe of margarita? Not in this lively, well located and friendly, airy venue for brunch with the cross section of SJ people. I’m no expert when it comes to Mexican style food but from homemade guacamole and chips to citrusy chicken enchiladas, it was the freshness of the food and the warm of our waitress, not just the zing from our salt rimmed tumblers, that made this the most pleasurable way to spend the early afternoon, mopping up the sunshine and atmosphere from our terrace table. Enjoy!

Food is good but portion size is small. They have very less vegetarian options.

This place is fantastic! The food was to die for. Their carne asada and chicken enchiladas were delicious. Service was fast and the servers were kind. It is a fast casual place where you order at the front and they bring you your food. Parking: We parked in the San Pedro market garage. The first 90 minutes was free so we didn't have to pay.
