Lola's catered our birthday party this weekend. Easy to work with, flexible, on time and everything delivered with style. They also helped us out by supplying G, an outstanding bartender. Loved the chef, great guy. Our only regret was that we are so busy partying our guests ate all the paella. Hearing this, they offered to give us additional paella at the Kensington Farmers market the next day. Highly appreciate that touch.

Stumbled upon this place while walking around the farmers market. They were about to close but we were able to try it. $18 for a large paella, the price is fair. The paella tasted delicious with plenty of seafood like clams, shrimp, and mussels. The green beans were crispy too. I would like to come back and try the empanadas next time.

Lola's has been coming to the Pinole Farmers Market for several weeks. They set up beside the Pear Street Bistro. I have had a taste for seafood paella. I noticed that there was always a crowd I took that as a sign I needed to try them.The paella comes in both large and small bowls. I ordered the large and had enough for 3 meals. I liked the plate, the rice was perfectly cooked. The shrimp still needed to be peeled, that was not a problem. The calamari, the mussels, and some fish I could not identify were good, I liked the green beans. I saw a calamari sandwich pass by me, it looked great. I want to try one the next time I am at the farmer's market.They told me that they would be at this market every week. I am not sure if this is true, because the week before they were missing. They did tell me they would be at the Kensington farmer's market. The next time I have a taste for paella I will come here. The local restaurants never seem to have this dish on their menu.

Lola's Spanish cuisine is simply amazing! Looking for catering for our wedding was stressful but from the beginning Adriana made the process super easy. She was very personable and professional in all our communications. Not to mention the food did not disappoint. Our guest were raving about how delicious the food was and everyone had a great time watching Felix do his thing. Thank you Adriana and Felix for making our day memorable!

I went to a friend's birthday party high in the Berkeley Hills and encountered Lola's Spanish Cuisine cooking 2 paellas. Both were delish, Felix killed it. One was a paella del terra and the other a paella del mar. Here is Felix documenting another delicious paella.

Fabulous paella by a genial, kind chef who fed a happy crowd of 40 in the Berkeley hills. To a person, partygoers raved about the feast--a seafood selection and a chicken selection, cooked to perfection. A truly wonderful family business!

These people were amazing. I had family here from Spain and they said this was exactly how they make it . They were professional, clean and the food was so perfect. I want to say thank you to all of them as their crew was super fun, friendly and food was so great and they cooked it infront of everyone and it looked and tasted amazing. I have to say I was 200% pleased as I did not think anyone could compete with Spain but these people were great! Met every expectation I had and more. I would hire them again in a minute. Well worth the money and lots and lots of great food. Thank you again to all of you!Dawna Crabb

Booked Lola's for my sister's birthday party & was not disappointed. Delicious paella, delicious tapas and awesome service. Their communication via email was immediate and they made sure to adhere to the nut allergy we had in our group. Food arrived in the exact delivery time we asked for and was delivered by a very helpful gentleman. Portions were great for the price point & everyone left with extras.

We had Lola's amazing paella for a 40th birthday party. Great presentation, great service, and the paella was absolutely delicious. I would definitely use them again.
Lola's Spanish Cuisine brings the most authentic taste of Spain in the freshly-made paellas and tortillas de patata. They can cater, they are at your local farmer's markets, they can deliver and you can even find their ready-to-heat tortillas at your local grocery store. As someone who has tasted a lot of paella and spanish cuisine, I can say Lola's Spanish Cuisine offers the true flavor of Spain. I believe they can even offer a live flamenco show with their catering service! Truly special and unique.

I was so excited to see paella at a farmer's market so I had to get it. They have a small size which was perfect for me. The paella was super flavorful! There was a large amount of seafood. The seafood was clean and fresh. I'd definitely recommend catching them around or if you've already found them, try it now!
