Recent Reviews
Atmosphere was ok, my food was good, sausage bacon cheese omelette which was cooked well, home fries were cooked well but could use some seasoning. Biscuits and gravy should be removed off the list, tasted very bland and out of a can. Kids mac n cheese was horrible and gritty. Service was good but had a bit of a language barrier we got through it though. We Would definitely visit again for lunch. All and all was a good meal. Could use a good cleaning throughout but I’d recommend...

A definite favorite in the area. We enjoy breakfast or lunch at Lola's! The menu offers a great selection inclusive of a variety of tastes. Service is extremely attentive, and the food is fresh and delicious!

Family home style diner. Breakfast is awesome. Service is the best I’ve ever seen, bar none. Prices are excellent. The meat lover’s skillet is huge with a tremendous amount of sausage and bacon mixed it. My wife had pancakes with bananas. Again a lot of fruit.
We were visiting from out of town and came twice to avoid the expensive and poorly prepared hotel food. That should say it all.
