we were recommended by someone local to go there for good food and atmosphere. we have been walking seattle all afternoon and were very tired and hungry. and to say the least we were very disappointed when we left. the atmosphere is very loud and pretentious, yet the food was sub-par. we ordered the prawn kebab, chicken kebab and smoked lamb with sides of garlic fried potatoes and asparagus. the prawns were pretty good and the fried potatoes were also very good. unfortunatly the chicken consisted of these pathetic little pieces of meat were dill destroyed the dish and made my chicken taste like fish. and not to mention that the pathetic little kebabs were 11 dollars each. robbery! the smoked lamb was served cold and tasted like roast beef. my wife ordered the lamb, and she is middle eastern having been raised in the middle east eating properly prepared lamb. so the main dishes were a total bust and definately not worth price. the dill that slaughtered the chicken is not expensive enough to justify such a big price. ultimately they have overly pretentious attitude that is not backed up by the food, and we will gladly spend money on a meal that is worth it. lola is not worth it.
Pros: the water is good
Cons: the bedet in the bathroom was cold
