We’ve been eating at LaPaz since 1993 when we attended Birmingham Southern College. Every time we travel back to Birmingham, we can’t wait to eat at LaPaz. It has always been nothing but exceptional. Tonight, Valentine’s, we met our son and his fiancé there for dinner. We had to ask the guy cleaning a table next to us to find our waiter after waiting 12 minutes with no attention. A girl who let us know she was not our waiter came and took our drink and appetizer order. Later, we had to waive her down and ask if she could take our food order. Our food came out fast and she made sure we had everything we needed. But….after that no one checked on us again. We sat with dirty plates, had no water refills, or had anyone ask us us if we wanted anything else. Finally, after 30 minutes being done eating, we flagged her down so we could get our check. The guy who was our actual waiter (with a horrible attitude) dropped our check on the table without a word or even clearing a single plate off our table. The food was amazing, but the “lack” of service ruined it!!

Just moved to Birmingham and wanted to try this place and we are really glad we did. Food was very good and the ambiance was great. Chips and all dips were great and so was the quesadilla! We will be back for sure!!

Good Mexican food. I would definitely recommend the blue corn nachos. Go early and beat the rush because the later the more crowded it will be.

Great service. Seats were available without having to wait. I can't say that I have noticed all the extra taxes that were added to the bill. AL SPECIAL Tax, Liquor by drink tax. I enjoyed my meal!

Yesterday, May 14th we had a delicious meal, and Jimmy was our server.
He was a great server, very courteous and accommodating.
We had not been here since 2014.
We will be back another time.
