La Parrilla

La Parrilla offers an alternative to the usual mexican food you're used to... they offer traditional Latin American dishes with a unique flavor. The margaritas are good too! =) more

For the price La Parrilla is simply the best gourmet latin food in town! Many vegetarian options (w/ or w/out tofu). Casual gourmet dining doesn't get any better than this! Pros: Gourmet South American Cuisine in a casual and inviting setting. Cons: Can be crowded during the lunch hour, and early dinner hours. more

As we passed by on Mass, the blackboard menu listed ""posole"" and ""corn chowder."" That's all it took to get us inside. I was given a sample taste of the corn chowder; that and one look at the prices put us in the seats. And just for ""eating in,"" we got free chips and salsa...a nice perk. But it was the mouth-watering posole (a Mexican meal-in-a-bowl with pork, hominy and other delicious ingredients) and the outstanding slightly spicy corn chowder that made us customers-for-life. The decor is spare and utilitarian, so ""ambiance"" is not the draw, but the food, service and prices are! We don't live in Lawrence, but would definitely recommend this restaurant to ANYONE heading there or already there. Pros: great food, very reasonably price, friendly employees more
