Last night was very emotional for us as this was the final night of one of the greatest restaurants we will ever have the pleasure of enjoying in our lifetime. Lola closed their doors last night but the owners are going on to bigger and better things. We will miss the food created by Chef Lenny Messina and his wonderful crew turning out the most innovative and fantastic food. They will be sorely missed.

Well, those of you who haven't eaten here...you missed out. As of tomorrow night, Lola goes the way of all flesh. It was the only true upscale restaurant in Great Neck. We will miss it!🥲
