We always have a great meal at Lola. Went with 6 people last night, so we were able to try lots of different things. We had the humus, babaganoush, squash, cabbage, Brussels sprouts, Caesar salad, fattoush salad, chicken shawarma and the rib eye skewer. Everything was delicious!!

I've been to Lola many times and it never disappoints! My friend and I tried some new dishes tonight and they were fantastic. I recommend this restaurant so highly. Interesting and unusual dishes made with care and served quickly. The service is always excellent.

Another outstanding dinner at Lola. Truly our favorite restaurant. Chef Lenny Messina is always creative and we look forward to his ever evolving menu. All dishes were absolutely delicious and are highly recommended. We had Hudson Valley foie gras, babaganoush, roasted cauliflower, brussel sprouts, carmelized cabbage and mushroom malawich. The staff always goes above and beyond to make everything absolutely perfect. We love this place!

Our appetizers were very good- babaganush- hummus - tuna tartare ..the fois gau was excellent.. Chicken schnitzel was also good— the sliced duck and breast was awful/ tough and served at room temperature (2orders) management replaced our duck order with the Branzino which could have been cooked a little longer.. Disappointing was looking for a top 50 restaurant and didn’t get it

The service was great & food was delicious! We were happy trying new things & loving what we ate. I recommend sharing appetizers & entrees so you get to taste more things. We shared the best Babaganoush I ever had, amazing roasted cauliflower & a chicken dish called Roasted Hudson Valley Chicken (we opted out on the Black Truffle part) which was so tasty! I can’t wait to go back & try some other things.
