                                                      Lola's was overall a great choice for our Valentines Day dinner. The food and drinks were delicious and the service was attentive. Our food came out a little later than expected but I feel it was worth the wait. The only con would be the constant traffic of people walking by going to the theatre.

                                                      This whole entire place is a special experience! I planned "dinner and a movie" for my husband and I for Valentine's Day, separately getting dinner reservations at Lola's and movie tickets for Moonstruck. It was our first time there and we didn't even know the Dundee Theater and Lola's were connected - we died even have to go outside to walk into the theater! The food was excellent, the staff friendly and the atmosphere perfect. Prices were reasonable, and everything was so so pretty! We will definitely be going again!

                                                      Lola’s roasted chicken dinner was excellent. I drink Pinot noir wine and they did not have it by the glass. I think they should add August West Pinot noir to their wine list by the glass. Otherwise we had a great Valentine’s dinner at Lola’s. We will be back!!

                                                      Lola's is truly special on New Year's Eve. This year they added live music to the mix. The special menu had something for everyone. We enjoyed the burrata appetizer as well as the roast chicken & steak for our mains. Of course we had to try dessert to end the evening. Loved the panettone bread pudding as well as the chocolate layer cake. The service was top notch.

                                                      Lola’s if a favorite. The featured soup of the day is always delicious. The service is great and the ambiance invites good conversation.
