Fabulous service! The best waiter @Pascal!! exceptional cuisine, and the crème brûlée was the best we ever had.  The noise level was a lot. They need to put noise dampening in the room on the wall walls. But that is a problem, many places, and it’s due to our ill mannered culture. People come to restaurants and they scream. It never used to be like that. But I digress. Lola is top notch.

Realizing that we dined during shoulder season, we were very pleased with our overall experience. The staff was very attentive and we received stellar service. Many times when service is slow the staff disappears in the back. Not this staff, even though it was quite slow they made sure that we had everything we needed from beginning to end. We went with our waiter's suggestions for our entrees and neither dissapointed. Both were fresh, cooked perfect and were generously portioned. I would love to return when the restaurant is vibrant in either the winter or summer
