Reviews
I first visited Lola42 three years ago, and it seems the sushi menu hasn’t changed much since then, which was a bit of a letdown. The sushi is fairly average and not quite what I’d hope for in a seafood-focused spot right on the water. Once again I felt a bit sorry for Bostonians missing out, as I’ve had tastier experiences in NYC and Orlando. The cocktails at the bar were ok, and not something I’d be excited to order next time. The hosts were friendly and quick, even if they didn’t share any specials or recommendations.
Overall, it’s a nice place to stop by and enjoy the view while on a stroll in the Seaport. Cheers!
The atmosphere was perfect for a date night : stylish, warm, and intimate, while still feeling lively. The space itself is beautiful and very well maintained. Everything was spotless.
We ordered the Escalar Roll Special, Poke Nachos, Tuna Burger, Snowy Mountain, and finished with the Basque Cheesecake : every single dish was delicious. The food was beautifully prepared and served very quickly, without ever feeling rushed.
The service truly stood out: the servers were incredibly professional, attentive, and clearly highly trained. Everything flowed smoothly from the moment we arrived until the end of the meal. We were also lucky to find parking easily that evening, which added to the overall positive experience.
Overall, this was a fantastic romantic dinner with amazing food, excellent service, and a great vibe. We will definitely be coming back.
I had one issue, the $31 king crab and eel roll didn’t have crab in the last quarter of the roll and was mostly rice. I spoke with someone and they told me that is normal. After some pressing about this (its not normal at good places!), they took the 3 pieces left and brought back 2. We went on with our meal, it has a great atmosphere, but probably won’t come back.
We also indulged in some specialty sushi rolls like the Yutaka, featuring BBQ eel and king crab, and the Asahi, which had spicy salmon topped with tuna and salmon. Both rolls showcased the kitchen’s creativity and were delicious all around. I have to give a special shout-out to our waiter, Rafael. He was impressive, knowledgeable about the menu, and offered confident recommendations without ever needing to glance at the paper. The atmosphere in the dining room struck an upscale and chic tone, featuring clean lines and an energetic vibe, though it was a bit loud—a detail to keep in mind if you’re after a more intimate setting.
While the flavors were spot on throughout our meal, I felt that the presentation could have used a little more work to match the upscale ambiance. When the dishes arrived, they were indeed delicious, but they didn’t quite have the visual appeal I often associate with fine dining. As someone who appreciates good food presentation, I think LoLa 42 could elevate their plating to enhance the overall dining experience.
Overall, if you’re in the mood for amazing flavors and attentive service in a stylish environment at the Seaport, you can’t go wrong with LoLa 42. Just be aware that while the food tastes fantastic, the visual presentation may not quite match the high-end atmosphere.
The atmosphere was welcoming and pleasant,
Plus the beautiful view!! I highly recommend this to anyone looking for an outstanding experience. I can’t wait to come back!
Feel free to customize any part of it!
Great, friendly service
Nice ambiance, with a water front view.
