   Tzatziki Milk Punch! Gotta see and experience it to get this restaurant. Been a long time since I have been wowed. And I have been in the business for 40 years. If you enjoy creative food and drink, you will appreciate this experience.

   Celebrated Christmas Eve with my Fiance here and it was our first time trying it. Everything exceeded our expectations. We will definitely be back and hopefully soon! We highly recommend it!

   This was our first time and we are extremely impressed. This is our new favorite restaurant in the desert. Impeccable service, delicious food. Highly recommend.

   We were excited to try Lola Rose, the ambiance and vibe lived up to expectations. We were expecting food to be just ok based on reviews, but we enjoyed everything we ordered. The celebration bread was flavorful and perfect when paired with the burrata salad. The hummus was fresh and the textures with the crunchy chickpeas and varying flavor profiles with the sundried tomatoes and green parsley sauce gave a unique flavor dynamic. The kabobs were fine, but my least favorite part of meal. Service needs work. After waiting 10+ minutes for a server she showed up and was hurried asking “can I get you started with a drink”. No explanation of menu, no suggestions. After giving our drink order, a waiter dropped glass and it went everywhere. Multiple tables had to get up so they could sweep the floor, no apologies, no can I get you something else, and I had on sandals and glass was on my feet - no one ever said a thing, they pretended like it didn’t happen. Upon drinks arriving we waited and waited for a server to return. Again - no explanation or support of menu. For the price point, service needs elevation.

   What a gem! We made reservations a week in advance -- a good thing because this place is hopping. The menu is inventive, a bit hard to navigate, but our lovely server helped us choose the right number of places to share, nudging us toward some of the house specialties, such as the Celebration Bread, Citrus Endive salad, Lamb Kuftas and an eggplant dip (the name of which escapes me) that were simply out of this world. We've enjoyed Middle Eastern cuisine in Manhattan, DC, and Chicago. This place gives those big-city establishments a run for their money.

   We started by ordering the spreads! The hummus was over spiced. A lot of topping and very little hummus once got to it. The hummus was the best dish. The roasted eggplant was disappointing as it lacked any flavor, not good. The celebration bread that seemed to be the favorite of our server was over spiced and undercooked, or maybe it’s just a gooey bread. We stopped ordering because of the lackluster experience. We will come back and try the kabobs. Maybe that’s the winning item.

    Overall, the food did not represent a strong effort to showcase Mediterranean flavours. The dips were weak and tasteless. The falafel and lamb kofte was bland, and arrived at the table late and cold.
