There aren't a lot of reviews out there for Lol Tun Restaurant, on Folsom between 19th & 20th streets. The folks participating on Yelp generally say the food is good and cheap, but the restaurant is loud and slow.
The police, on the other hand, aren't so concerned with the restaurant's food, but the 3.8 pounds of heroin, 5 oz. of ice, and 1 ounce of cocaine hydrochloride they confiscated. A manager/owner and a chef have been arrested as the result of a four-month operation by the San Francisco police and agents from the San Mateo County Narcotics Task Force. Total street value of the narcotics: $170,000.
No wonder the prices are so low! No reports yet on if the police agreed with Yelpers that the music was too loud.
(For some reason, this makes us want to run out and try the place tonight)



San Diego ain't got nuttin' on our burritos. I'll have mine with a side of crack!
i want to try it too!
I hope the arresting officer said something like, "gentlemen, let's ground this lollercopter."
Quoting one clueless gringa on Yelp: "This place is a total hole in the wall but has FABULOUS affordable Yucatan food"
lol tuns
although, people on Yelp sometimes know more than the (honest) cops.

They haven't scored so well health-wise either:

I love that cleanscores site, but now I'll probably never eat out again.
Okay, I'm dumb and so-not-streetwise. When you say 5 oz. of ice, I assume you don't mean the type made out of water? So what DO you mean?
Ice? Why, it's meth, of course.
But here's my question: does the fact that it's 5 oz. worth mean anything to those not in the know? I certainly don't know how many doses or whatever that comprises.
haha i live on this block. i've never seen more than 4 people inside every time i've walked by, which would be almost every day. i suppose this explains how they stayed in business.
Ha ha, one of the Yelp reviewers said: "The food was great. The ceviche was especially tasty. Too bad they don't have Mexican coke." Uh, did you even ask?

5oz= 141 grams
street val depends on grade $150 to $200 per gram? So total around $22,000???
I don't know. Ice to me is what I put into a Bloody Mary at Sun brunch..
guest 9 again, not really a topic i want to use my registered name with
mariconsoy - what in the hell drug costs $150 a gram? ive never heard of coke going over $60 unless its some "pure" and from mexico or something.
no clue about meth, but i would assume it could never cost more than blow right?
anyway, ive never seen dealers on our block. its usually pretty quiet other than the little shits from O'Connell High (which happens to be next door to Lol Tun)
what is cocaine hydrochloride?
Er, Mr mariconsoy, you have been watching too many episodes of the A Team. A gram of meth for $150? Stoooooopid boy.
Dearest Fizzandpop,
U R right. I called a methodist I know and she said it cost $100.00 a gram or $30 per 1/4.
I don't watch the A-team, only Perry Mason from the 50's and 60's. I guess there weren't many meth heads back then...
I think Ice is different than meth (white man's crack). I forget what's in it, but I know it's very popular in Hawaii (from watching Dog the Bounty Hunter).
