The old patio is adorned with old brick of varying shapes and shades, wood shutters and as aforementioned, a wall of lacy vines &#8211; not to mention white tablecloths on the dozen or so tables along the narrow patio.  This is the class of Mexican culture at it&#8217;s very best.<\/p>\n<p>This old, Denver tradition, Mexican restaurant on the west-side is serving classic Mexican food in an old house (the house on Diamond Hill) built in 1887.  The restaurant is richly decorated in rich woods with dark accents, high ceilings with skylights, quality tables\/chairs\/booths, a warm inviting vibe and a vintage tortilla machine.  A cozy bar for 10-12 is the perfect place to wait a few minutes for a table.  Happy hour (Mon &#8211; Sat\/ 2pm &#8211; 6pm) offers $6-7 Margaritas, wine, beer and discounted apps.<\/p>\n<p>The menu (click the main website) offers the classics: <strong>Enchiladas<\/strong> (two\/ $9.75-10.25,) <strong>Tacos<\/strong> (3\/ $9.95-11.25,) <strong>Burritos<\/strong> (2\/ $8.75-10.50,) <strong>Combinations<\/strong>: 1\/ 7.95 2\/ 10.25 3\/ 12.25 4\/ 13.95 as well as <strong>Fajitas<\/strong> (around $10.95-$16.95, $25.25, for two) and other specialties &#8211; check the <strong>La Loma&#8217;s website<\/strong> for the full menu.  The salsa is thick and hot and the tortillas are hand crafted.  This my friends is a good restaurant.<\/p>\n<p>The main dining room is warm and cozy of course, also with dark woods, a high ceiling and cozy booths.<\/p>\n<p>The lovely Juana, all in black, graced our table with good cheer and Latin beauty. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.lalomamexican.com\/\">The Official La Loma Website<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.lasvegasbuffetclub.com\">Visit the main pages of LasVegasBuffetClub.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>La Loma is the Real-Deal traditional, Mexican restaurant in an old house (1887) in the &#8220;old neighborhood.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[5],"tags":[45,44,1072,46,32],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/lasvegasbuffetclub.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6461"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/lasvegasbuffetclub.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/lasvegasbuffetclub.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lasvegasbuffetclub.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lasvegasbuffetclub.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=6461"}],"version-history":[{"count":16,"href":"https:\/\/lasvegasbuffetclub.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6461\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6501,"href":"https:\/\/lasvegasbuffetclub.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6461\/revisions\/6501"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/lasvegasbuffetclub.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=6461"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lasvegasbuffetclub.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=6461"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lasvegasbuffetclub.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=6461"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
