Excellent authentic Mexican food. Quick and friendly service. Not much seating so prepare for a wait at times, but the wait will definitely be worth it! Have a large Margarita and enjoy your meal.

Always fabulous! I guess we are regulars now as the waiter knows our drink and food orders! It was quite busy for 5:00 on a Friday night and loud but not too loud. Food was so tasty with the cheese sauce perfect tonight! Definitely a fabulous place for dinner!

We came in from out of town and found Lalo's on Yelp. We sat down and got prompt service. The drinks were good but the food was amazing. My wife had shrimp tacos which she really enjoyed. I had the carnitas dinner. I can't remember when I have had carnitas so tender and delicious. We left feeling sad because we live 170 miles from Dubuque and don't get here very often. We will return if we come back.

Our friends told us this was their favorite Mexican restaurant so we had to check it out. Lalo's was very good. The food was hot and fresh! The staff was super friendly and checked on us a lot. The restaurant is located in the small town of Wyoming, IA. The restaurant was very clean and nicely decorated. We will be returning, even if it's a hour and 15 mins from our house.

Friendly staff, clean and sat immediately greeted with warm fresh chips and great salsa. The enchiladas, burrito and chile Verdes were delicious! So glad we saw this on yelp. We will definitely come again when we are in town!
