I have been to brunch a few times at Lola's and have always had a really good time. It is such a cool place and the view of Downtown is awesome. I think their brunch menu is really good and have nevery been disapointed with anything and they make great bloody mary's! There are always so many people which I can understand (cause its brunch and they have good food), but I wanted the restaurant to clear out for ME! Overall good service and great food Pros: Good Food Cons: super busy

I had one of the worse experiences at this restaurant. I had asked the server if a particular dish had a specific ingredient in it and he told me absolutely not. So I ordered it under the impression that my server would know the dish. Well when it came out from the kitchen the dish was covered in the ingredient that I had just specified that I did not want. I sent it back to the kitchen and another server (not even my own) notified me that it would be right back out. Well 20 minutes later after everyone at my table was done with their meal, notified the server that if my dish wasn't ready, I would be fine with not eating it. About 3 minutes later, I got my meal from the manager who didn't apologize for the delay but instead decided to tell me that I should be patient and wait for my new dish and next time i should notify my server about my preferences on the dish. When I explained to her that I did in deed ask the server before I even ordered the dish, she said nothing in response. The restaurant did not apologize or even offer to take off part of the meal. HORRIBLE SERVICE and definitely over priced!

Belola is the BASEMENT venue of Lolas. Don't expect a private party to be private. The bathrooms for the entire establishment are in the basement. People come and go through the private space you rent (you never know when you're paying for your guests' drinks or a crasher's drinks). Food is low-quality and poorly presented; not what you eat upstairs. Overall -- a big disappointment!

I have been going to Lola since it was on Pearl St. Now that it has moved I still go out of my way to visit a couple times a month. The menu is always changing and I am rarely disapointed. As for the service, I am ususally at the bar and I love the staff. They all seem to get along great and connect with their customers well. As for the previous comment on bad service, that person must have some personal issues with a bartender because I always see smiles and close conversations with guests. The waitstaff is some of the best in town. Maybe that is why they are always busy. Pros: atmosphere, staff, interesting menu Cons: can get crowded really quick

The main draw to this place is the bar scene. especially on summer evenings. its a great place to start with a few beers (tecate $2) or one of the many margaritas. (skip the house marg and pay the few xtra bucks for one of the specialties) and then move into the dining room for dinner. this is not your typical rice and beans mexican, it requires just a little more sophisticated palate but the food is excellent. just dont go there expecting a burrito. ive tried several dishes and all of them were great. i live in the neighborhood so im there often and the only thing that bothers me about the place is this one bartender. she is so snotty and opinionated and probably one of the ugliest people to carry such baggage. totally offensive in both her manner and looks. just ignore her. Pros: drinks and atmosphere Cons: service could use some work

Two stars for the friendly and fun staff and the bar crew...like 5280 says, this is a great place for drinks. But if you're thinking of actually eating here, thing again. The starters are OK, but the rest of the menu is dog food. I'd rather eat mud. Pros: Bar, drinks, service Cons: Food, drink menu

I have been to Lola's several times. My friends all love to go there for happy hour. The patio and the guacamole is really the only thing that I could recommend. I think the food is expensive and very mediocre, ordinary at best. Every time I have been there it's been very crowded so of course the servers are very busy, but still no excuse for snotty, bad service. I love the patio and the location and I really wish they would do something to improve this situation. Pros: Patio Cons: food, prices, service
