   Amazing dinner! We had a little date night for 2 and it almost looked like they set up a little 2 person table just for our reservation. The food never disappoints at Lalas & it was a 10/10. I love the 16oz strip. Thanks again!

   One of our favorite restaurants! They have so many different food options, for whatever mood you're in. From a quail dish or charcuterie board to a burger or pizza, they have it all.

   Just an all around bad experience. They were under staffed, so it was 40 minutes before we got our drinks ordered. The room was loud, so the only think we could really hear was the complaining from the tables around us about the service. The food was okay, but terribly over priced for what you got

   Service by Danielle was excellent! Food service was a little slow but the drinks were fantastic and they kept them coming. Make sure to ask the price if you're considering the specials so you aren't caught off guard when you get the bill. We will definitely be going back!

    Daniela was the worst server in the world. We were there for almost 2 1/2 hours and had no refill. Every time I called for her, she looked our way and left. When we ask for desert, we ordered the cake, she didn’t bring us a menu. So instead of her telling us the the cake is gigantic and we should split it since it’s $20 a slice, she let us order it so she could get the cost up for a bigger tip. By the way, the tip didn’t happen. It’s a great place as long as you don’t get her

    Birthday dinner, everything was great, but after we ordered a couple appetizers, we waited over 30 minutes to order our dinner. It was a slow night, and we never saw our waiter once out on the floor that whole time. They closed at 9, and we didn’t get to order until almost 8:15…our reservation was 7:30. We love Lala’s…so of course we will be back, just a small complaint.

    Everything was outstanding. My only complaint was our seating--yes seating. The chairs were very large, too soft and low to the floor. I would ask for another table next time. Ashley is an awesome server and the food and drinks were delicious.

    It was fabulous! Definitely one of my new favorite restaurants! Their charcuterie board was absolutely amazing-I have never seen another one like it in this area-it was completely full from edge to edge. There were four of us and we ordered the medium. We had plenty to bring home afterwards! Our entrees were absolutely delicious and reasonably priced! We finished our meal with their superb and HUGE chocolate cake; one piece was enough for all four of us. Our service was excellent and we enjoyed meeting the owner as well! Overall, it was a perfect experience and I look forward to returning!

    The food and service is absolutely amazing. I love the live music and piano. My only complaint would be the risotto. It taste great but comes out too watery. Risotto is hard to make though and labor intensive. Other than that, all the other food is on point.

    I was so disappointed in the food, salmon, no better than what I make for myself at home. Why would they serve salmon on cheesy grits? Bland on bland. Our server tried but had too many tables. I didn’t finish any of it. To top it off, as my friend was finishing her meal, the music combo set up right behind our table, microphones and instruments and chairs, all close enough for us to reach out and touch them. Then, before 6 PM, they started singing. Ridiculous. We couldn’t even talk to each other. I paid nearly $50 ( with tip) for this ?

    My wife and I went on 1/13/23. Made a 7:30pm res. We walked in to the front desk and 2 staff members were there. They looked at us and then back to each other to continue their conversation with each other. They looked annoyed that we walked in looking to be seated. After a few minutes, we were seated. From that point on really good service and food quality and presentation were fantastic. Lala's was very busy so food took a little while, but not to bad given the volume of people there. The live piano player was great to add some ambiance to the night. Our server Rhea was very nice and easy to work with.

    We love going to Lala’s. We were seated in the bar area and we prefer the more quiet dinning room side. Also, I am short so I don’t like hightop tables because my feet dangle. I will request not to be in the bar area next time. The food was fantastic, our server was amazing, even when the bar got super busy and he was doing both!

    First time here and was looking forward to trying after hearing great reviews. Brussel sprouts appetizer was great and then everything else went downhill from there. Salmon and Halibut were dry and lacked flavor, mushroom risotto tasted like lime, potatoes had no flavor and the cheesy grits were completely off and didn’t work well with the salmon. My wife gets salmon almost every time we go out and felt like this was the worst salmon entree she ever had. Server was nice but our service was very slow. Ambiance was nice with the piano player but certain aspects are very outdated. Might try again since we’re close to give them another chance, but just overall a very disappointing meal for the amount being charged.

    We got there a little early and got seated then so we had a glass of wine. Our waitress was very polite and courteous. She was timely with our order and revisited our table numerous times but not annoyingly. Our food was delicious. (The only drawback was the spring vegetable side dish was over cooked and slightly mushy.) I I have had them before and were cooked properly so it might have been just an oversight? The rest of our food was great. I will defiantly return and recommend to friends and family.

    Our server was great. Took a very long time to get food and then it was cold. Manager came to our table to see how things were. We told her about the cold food and she didn’t care. Not worth the $200 we spent.

    Awesome atmosphere, great food and our server was fantastic. It was my wife birthday so we finally got a night out without the kids. Our server ( sorry i cant remember her name) was very understanding and just let us order at our leisure. Never pressed us about time so we sat and enjoyed ourselves. She had the salmon and i had the 22oz bone in ribeye. Both were cooked to perfection! By far one of our best experience around the portage lakes area.

    Took mother to celebrate her birthday and nothing was done. Nobody told her happy birthday. No acknowledgement at all. To add insult to injury they brought a piece of carrot cake to the table while we were waiting for my husband to get the car. I thought it was for the birthday but then they said it was for another table.
