    The food is phenomenal as is the service. We mentioned that we needed to be out of there in about an hour to make a show, and they were super prompt bringing out our food, but it never felt rushed.

    Lola has been a "go-to" place for many years however a couple of experiences lately have me considering my options. Food is great but service is slow and the noise level the last two visits has been beyond tolerable. With regard to service, it took a long time for anyone to take our order. The food came quickly after that but we again experienced a long lull when it came time to pay. Noise is exacerbated by all the hard surfaces and it seems that large parties can get loud which makes it really hard to have a normal conversation.

    The server took ages to take our order and did not check on us as we ate. She also did not write our order down correctly and we had to flag her down to ask her when the pork kebabs were coming out - since she never stopped by to check on us as we ate our starters. As it was a lunch reservation, when she said she would put in the order now because she didn't realise we had asked for the pork (which she realised we did when we explained that's why we received the Greek salad we didn't order), we had to decline since we had to be back at work in 20 minutes. It was disappointing service.

    We dined at Lola during the restaurant week special. We had their special for the restaurant week. It was wonderful. It was a lot of wonderfully delicious food. We loved the spreads, you choose from six varieties. And of course you get Greek salad. Then a choice of several kebabs. We had the salmon and chicken. Both tasty and flavorful. We both had the lamb chops. The lamb was cooked perfectly. We shared the pots de creme, chocolatey overboard. We took the triple coconut pie to go. The coconut pie is one of Tom Douglas signature dish. I dream of this pie. Such a wonderful evening with great food. Our server Dana was friendly, informative and fun.

    Little disappointed. Service was good and super helpful wait staff. Food was not as good as it has been in years past. The Jackie’s salad in particular had giant chunks of mealy tomatoes vs the usual bright cherry tomatoes. The kebabs were ok but just not what I’ve had before here.

    Wow--what a fantastic dining experience! The Lola team runs on all cylinders from the front of the house, to the wait staff, to the kitchen. We were told that they were short staffed but the team is incredibly adept at helping each other out and as a result they did not miss a beat. The food was fantastic: Lola Spreads (get all six with pita--distinct flavors); Chicken Kebob (served on a sizzling skillet that gets excited when the ouzo is poured on top); Eggplant Shakshuka (incredible tomato stew); Royal Corona Beans (sometimes you just want a plate of roasted vegetables and some big beans); Lamb Burger (big and perfectly cooked with rosemary fries and harissa ketchup); Horta (braised chard, kale, and escarole--my brother's favorite); Made to Order Donuts (with vanilla mascarpone and local jam); and an assortment of drinks (Greek Martini with a feta stuffed olive, Mint Daiquiri, smokey Mezcal Al Pena, and a pleasant red, Naoussa Xinomavro. We live in San Francisco and our friends are from outside of London, and we travel a lot for business. For the food, service, and ambience, this was one of the best meals in memory. We left in a very good mood and will consider Lola our shared happy place.

    For breakfast, the shakshuka was fantastic, and the portion is HUGE! The spreads and kabobs were unique and flavorful (the halloumi and fig is a must try). And the doughnuts…oh, the doughnuts!! We loved this place so much, we ended up eating here THREE times in the same five day trip. Yes, it’s that good.
