Lola’s has brunch now! I’ve lived in the neighborhood for a few years now and I was delighted to discover they’ve started a brunch service on the weekends. Everything was incredible and our server, Courtney, took very good care of us. I highly recommend the Persian Love Cake Waffles and the Shrimp & Grits. I also ordered a Paloma and enjoyed the breakfast potatoes. The ambiance is beautiful and the presentation and balance of flavors was incredible. The best shrimp and grits I’ve eaten in recent memory!

We really enjoyed Lola’s for a laid back night out. The food was great. The sautéed garlic shrimp appetizer was excellent. The lentil soup was good; great flavors, wish it was a little larger though. The Garlic Chicken is a generous portion of chicken, with some white rice and very well prepared veggies. Would def order again. Others enjoyed the trout and duck!
Thanks for having us

Unfortunately, besides our great server and delicious dishes, my experience was not great. The hostess was a bit dismissive and insisted our reservation didn’t exist even when we showed the receipt, which meant we couldn’t sit outside and enjoy the beautiful New Orleans fall weather like we had reserved. Inside, the restaurant was freezing and then got so smoky from the open kitchen that our eyes burned. The tables were tiny and our giant menus knocked everything over. Portions are very small for the price, both for drinks and food.

Made a reservation for Monday night. My friend and I just missed happy hour, but we got dinner service, which was wonderful. Everyone was so friendly. The drinks were very strong. Food was good, I had the duck with mashed potatoes and asparagus, and my friend got the tuna with rice and mixed veggies. It’s small, but quaint, and cozy.

We’ve been in town for just a week and have been to Lola’s twice, with a third reservation for this upcoming Sunday. The brunch menu is amazing. The short rib is huge and melted in my mouth. Truffle grits are divine. Beautiful presentation. Off the regular menu, the lamb chops were cooked to perfection- the flavor – can’t say enough about our experience. Cocktails are first rate. There were four of us last night and we all walked away 100 percent delighted love love love this restaurant.

Paella was great. Not really a tapas place. The Brussel sprouts were in the same sauce as the shrimp, weird.
I’m okay with the place charging for bread and being cashless, but adding a fee for using card when there is no alternative isn’t cool. Just raise the menu prices.

Service was absolutely amazing. Food was delicious, enjoyed every bit. Loved the way the waitress checked to see if everything was good. The owner even came over to introduce herself. Very quaint and family oriented atmosphere. Highly recommend.

Would not call this restaurant purely Spanish, would say meditterenean is a better description. Firstly they could not find our confirmed reservation, due to overbooking. We got a table on the sidewalk which is better than sitting inside, but a tad uncomfortable. Our order was taken but was not passed on to the kitchen, so we had to order twice and received our meal almost 1h 20 min later. The waiter did apologize. The paella was quite good and so was the shrimp pasta, although i would like the portion to be slightly bigger.

I really wanted to love this restaurant, but I have never been treated so poorly when dining out with my family. I had a reservation on April 25, 2023 at 8:30 PM. My husband and I decided to try a new local restaurant because we just found out we were expecting our first child a few days prior. I got home a little bit later than normal from my job and realized we would be showing up 5 to 10 minutes after our reservation time to the restaurant. I called and let them know. I understood that the restaurant was only open for so much longer after our allotted time, so I asked them if it would be better if I canceled and rescheduled my reservation. The woman on the phone said I was completely fine to still come in even if I showed up 5 to 10 minutes after my reservation time. We showed up exactly 5 minutes after our reservation. We walked in to a very cold greeting from the staff. They all just looked at us like we were inconveniencing them and one of them finally begrudgingly showed us to a table.We overheard two of the young ladies who are servers trash talking my husband and I. Asking each other why we would even bother showing up if we made a reservation so late at night? Mind you we weren’t showing up five minutes before closing. We showed up almost 2 hours before closing. Both my husband and I have worked in the service industry before we ended up working in our careers. so this type of behavior is completely unacceptable. No excuses.After waiting for several minutes, someone finally came over and greeted us. Again, a very cold and poor greeting.My husband and I ordered water to be easy and then we both wanted to start off with salads. My husband wanted a Caesar salad and the server told told my husband to order an easier salad to make because they didn’t want to have to take everything out to make a Caesar salad. Excuse me? How extremely unprofessional. Then got upset when I ordered paella. Asked me if I knew that it was going to take 30 to 45 minutes to cook it, and I said that I knew that. The pie was the whole reason I wanted to come to the restaurant. After you hearing the kitchen curse and slam things down very loudly after putting my order in. We genuinely felt so uncomfortable. After finally receiving our food, out of courtesy, we took a few bites of our meal and then immediately asked for a box. Disgustingly unprofessional. The food was good. I am attaching the pictures of my husband and I entrées below. Even eating the leftovers felt disgusting because we could not get over how badly we were treated. Even after all of this, we still left over a 20% tip because, again, we were both servers and understand what it is like. This was the first time in both of our lives that we actually considered not tipping at all. We will never return back and have warned other people of our experience at this place. You never know what people are going through behind closed doors. It takes absolutely nothing to show kindness to another person. After experiencing so many health problems and finally being able to conceive a child, we just wanted to have a beautiful night out together and celebrate. The night was ended with tears and disbelief at the amount of disrespect we received from complete strangers. Do better.
