Lala's Argentine Grill

In a sense, Lala’s origins trace to 1988 when future owners Horacio Weschler Ferrari and Mario Balul moved to the United States. Both came to California with a commitment to their Argentinian culture, a profound appreciation for the United States, and a resolute desire to create something that fused the best of both worlds.Horacio, who has an extensive restaurant background, met Mario, a trained architect, in 1990, and they quickly became close friends with many shared ambitions and interests. By 1995, they jointly conceptualized their future restaurant and set about the task of finding the right location and space to realize their vision. This vision combined their nostalgic memories of Argentinian dining savored in an unhurried and uniquely social fashion with the kind of reasonable prices and appealing setting that would encourage repeat business. In April of 1996, Lala’s opened its doors to an appreciative public. Lala's_131-2Mario and Horacio are dedicated to a “hands-on” approach to restaurant management. The owners can be found at Lala’s every day to ensure consistent attention to details and the utmost quality in their cuisine and customer service.

True to their Argentinian roots, excellent dining for these two is inextricably linked with socializing, pleasure, and with life itself.
