Family-owned business, great atmosphere and vibes, and the music was great! We went for a Bad Bunny album celebration, and it didn't disappoint. The owners and staff are wonderful. It definitely feels very Boricua 🇵🇷, but what's nice to see is that all cultures come out to Lola's and celebrate our beautiful food and culture! 🎉 #FamilyBusiness #GoodVibes #Music #BadBunny #PuertoRico #Culture #Food #Celebration

The decor was inviting and unique, the service was good, the food was okay. I have heard many amazing things about the restaurant and had high hopes, but was left feeling a little let down.

We have been to Lola's twice now and it is a great experience. It is Puerto Rican which is a bit different. Staff is great and the food delicious and plentiful. It does tend to get loud but it is tolerable. Food service is a bit slow but the drinks are great and make a good placeholder. I have to say it is a plantain lovers dream!!
