We were at the Tampa Convention Center for my daughter’s All-State Chorus concert and wanted to celebrate with a nice dining experience after the event. Lona’s seemed like a great option. I had reservations so we were seated promptly. The atmosphere was nice, well decorated with traditional Mexican music playing. Our server, Maria, was kind and attentive and did her job well. Unfortunately this was as good as it got. The food unfortunately did not deliver. One of our orders was the Enchiladas which we asked only for the red sauce. The chicken was completely unseasoned. It tasted like chicken boiled in water. The sauce was 100% tomato, 0% chiles, which would make the dish an Entomatada. It tasted terrible and was not eaten. We also had the salmon, which was cooked properly but was completely drenched in sauce giving a delicate fish a soggy texture. The sides for the salmon were a fully unseasoned red cabbage only coleslaw and a half avocado sprinkled with roasted corn kernels. Those were unseasoned as well. We also had refried beans and yellow rice brought to the table as sides for everyone and it was inedible. The beans were pureed to the point of a watery consistency and lacked any flavor, while the rice had no seasoning either. Now the very unfortunate part is that this was a relatively expensive restaurant. I understand and fully support paying good money for good food, but for lousy food, it just doesn’t register. The chef needs to pay more attention to the food leaving the kitchen and ensure that every cent they received from diners is actually earned.
