The coconut pie was outstanding. The Greek salad and lamb skewers were excellent. The calamari was OK, but not really better than you would get in a diner. There was a lot of coating, which obscured the flavor and texture of the calamari itself. It might still have been more enjoyable if it had been served really hot, but it came to the table barely warm.
Our server was very pleasant and friendly, but she missed a couple of elements of excellent professional service. She did not offer the choice shown on the menu of potatoes or salad with the skewers, and the person who ordered them forgot to specify. He got the salad when he had been looking forward to the potatoes. I had ordered a full salad myself. Our server never returned to the table to check on us after the food was delivered. Another server picked up our plates when we were done, which is fine. But we wanted to order dessert and had to flag down another server to get the dessert menu.
It was a very cold day, so it’s understandable that, even with the double door entry, the restaurant was cold with people going in and out all the time. It was so cold, though, that we kept our overcoats on through the entire meal. It may be impossible to better heat the restaurant because it’s in an old building, but if it were possible, it would have made the dining experience more enjoyable.
We have been to Lola before and will come again. We just wanted to let them know that it was not the consistently excellent experience we have had in the past.
