This place is a must when my out of town guest come to visit. We are always well taken care of with our service and food. Speaking of the food....It is absolutely delicious. Even my leftovers are good the next day. The presentation of the food is nice. Also the price point is fair! A nice place to have brunch, especially when they have DJ's playing music. Again, LoLo is a must for visitors! read more

This place is a diamond in the rough! I buddy of mine suggested this place and we came out on a Tuesday evening. The place was semi-packed but we still got seated right away. The restaurant is a rustic building with an open wooden ceiling. Pretty cool!! Service was amazing! Our waiter made sure we were well taken care of and constantly checked on us. The food was another story! I wasn't expecting next level fried chicken in Phoenix!!! In other words the food was on point!!!! Overall, great spot! Great service, great drinks and amazing food!!!! read more

Tried Lo-Lo's Chicken & Waffles and honestly... I don't get the hype. The grits were lumpy, the catfish was greasy and not well seasoned. Overall the food missed the mark. The cornbread was pretty good, and the Cadillac margarita tasted good, but definitely on the weaker side. Shoutout to our server for being friendly and attentive, but unfortunately the food didn't live up to expectations. Pretty disappointing experience overall especially with the hr wait. read more

A must visit place in PHX. The price was just right and the portion sizes were huge! The service was pretty standard, nothing to be wowed at. I would say everyone must try this spot. read more

I only give it a 4 because they didn't have gizzards anddd the wait time from ordering food to getting the food was 40 minutes. Typically it's not like that... however the food is consistent and was bomb. I got the platter $26 (3 legs, greens, mashed potatoes, cornbread) everything was GREAT!! Friday lunch vibe was chill, music and good service. Would definitely be back and it's a great place to bring those visiting Arizona read more

Came in on a Tuesday evening seated immediately. Order was taken within good time and bathroom was clean. Our order took a minute to come out and did not come out together. There was a few minutes between each dish but that seems like a lot when you're hungry! I got the blackened catfish dinner; the fish was blackened and seasoned to perfection and the garlic butter topping was tasty as well with a fluffy texture. I tried a bit of chicken which was yummy as well. No complaints and we took a couple bottles of hot sauce to go. Would recommend and return! read more

If you haven't been to Lo-Lo's Chicken & Waffles yet, you're missing out. The food is undeniably good--crispy, flavorful chicken and waffles done right every time. Service was on point too, friendly and quick. And you can't go wrong with that Kool-Aid . Hands down better than Roscoe's House of Chicken and Waffles or any other chicken and waffles spot I've tried. 5 stars all day. read more

Lo-Lo's Chicken & Waffles - Nay nay's - Southern Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

As a longtime devotee of the brunch game specializing in the pursuit of chicken & waffles, I'm delighted to report this venue checks out with accolades. Known for their Kool-Aid (always on tap!), I saved my sugar for extra syrupy toasty golden waffles (just right) on LoLo's Special and 3 pieces of moist yet crisp Southern fried chicken. The breast was on the dry side, not to be overlooked with some LoLo's award winning hot sauce & syrup - finger lickin' sweet & spicy! Neal was managing the front door and team working multiple tables with a great attitude - a pleasure to behold! read more

We were greeted and seated quick. Very friendly staff. The whole place looks clean and inviting. The food is delicious as always. The whole group I was with loved everything they ordered.

Ambiance: Clean restaurant with plenty of seating and attractive decor. Service: We were served by a nice gentleman who was attentive. Food: 8/10 -- The chicken had excellent flavor. The greens were the highlight for me. The cornbread was unique; it reminded me of Jiffy. Candy Sweets were delightful. The catfish was also tasty, and I usually don't care for catfish. read more

We walked in and they didn't have much of a wait for a Saturday that's nice. The staff was pleasant and professional. The food quality is the same. Maybe missing some flavor and seasoning on the sides but the fried chicken and waffles are always really good. I've bee here several times and honestly prefer this location it feel cozy and more like home. The DJ also kept the vibes going which was nice. read more

Delicious chicken and waffles! I highly recommend the catfish bites! We all enjoyed our food and were seated pretty quick for a group of 5. Our server was awesome! She recommended drinks for us and helped us save money! The restaurant is good for friends and/or family. The bathrooms are decent. read more

Heard really good things about Lo-Lo's Chicken and Waffles so we had to stop by while in town. Would highly recommend making a reservation or calling ahead as there was a pretty decent crowd and we still ended up waiting even after calling ahead. Our server was great, very friendly and flexible with our groups many requests and adjustments to orders. Shrimp deviled eggs were tasty, they came with a hot honey sauce that really tied the flavors together. We all loved the chicken and waffles, and primarily ordered the Double D meal (two breasts and a waffle)but any chicken and waffle combo is likely delicious. Depends on your cut of chicken preferences. Kool-Aid and Lemonade were great, a little sweet but that's expected/appreciated with those drinks. DJ was great and overall the space was pretty large. Assuming they create a party brunch vibe on weekends and maybe even host night time events based on setup and menu options. Will definitely check out Lo-Lo's again next time we're in Phoenix. Probably 2nd best chicken and waffles I've ever had! read more

Good food, good friends and good music..you can't beat that. We had a great time celebrating a friends birthday. The service was great. Our server was very attentive and that made the experience so much better. The food came out hot and tasty!!! They do not skimp on serving portions. The food was seasoned well and was sooo tasty. The kool -aid especially Red Kool-Aid was delicious! We went on a Sunday afternoon and there wasn't a long wait. The music from the DJ brought added fun as we did a few line dances lol . Great place to go for great food with generous portions... read more

Went to Lo-Lo's Chicken & Waffles for lunch on a Saturday during our vacation. We read reviews that were pretty good so we figured we'd check them out. I highly recommend putting yourself on the waitlist through Yelp as they get busy. It was about an hour wait, but by the time we arrived we were 2nd on the waitlist and only needed to wait about 10 minutes. They have a small parking lot but we found parking without an issue. I assume this could be a challenge if they get too busy! First impressions: the place is a little tight, but the vibes were good. They had a DJ spinning rnb and old school hits and the crowd seemed to be enjoying it. It can get a little loud, so for folks with sensory sensitivity this could be a bit much. Our service was super sweet, but we noticed she often forgot things and messed up our order. She was apologetic and did what she could to remedy it. We started with the catfish bites and gizzards. The food took a LONG time. Almost 45 minutes for appetizers and 15-20 minutes after for our main meal. I will say the food was hot and fresh, so plan to wait a bit for your food. I ordered the blackened catfish with dirty rice and sautéed veggies. It seemed a bit bland to me about after adding some salt it was more edible. Our table also ordered chicken tenders and a waffle (which they loved) and a few sides to try. Overall, it as a good experience. The ambiance is super cool, but the service was slow, some of the food items were mediocre, and it just gets so jam packed plan to wait a long time to be seated and to get your food. read more

I would give this place zero stars. Absolutely horrible customer service. The staff is rude to customers and delivery drivers. I've never experienced such awful service. All staff we interacted with was absolutely awful and the wait is atrocious. Don't waste your time coming here. Management needs to do something about the service. The staff is rude and and mean. read more

The service was good. I did have to wait a little bit for my server but while waiting I was told my server would be out soon. Very welcoming and friendly environment. The food was good, you can get toppings on your waffle and I got whipped cream. I'm not sure if it was extra, but probably. I got chicken and waffles and as a Los Angeles native I love Roscoe's Chicken and Waffles but don't go there anymore for several reasons. So, I was excited to try Lo Lo's. The waffle was really good better than Roscoe's imo, the chicken was kind of warm not hot like I would have liked. They give you a good amount of butter and syrup so that's great. The kool-aid was also very good and I haven't had kool-laid in a little bit so it was a treat. Also, you get a large cup of Kool-laid so you don't need a refill. My server was very kind. I told her I was thinking about relocating to Arizona and asked her about good areas to search. She literally sat down with me and took the time to give me areas to search as well as names of apartments that she recommended! I really appreciated her taking the time to help me with my search. I didn't get her name though. I definitely recommend Lo Lo's and I see that they own other restaurants so I look forward to trying them. Another staff was telling me of other good items to try after I asked her would she would recommend. They don't just have chicken and waffles but also other soul food items. read more

I'm dating myself as I've been coming to LoLo's Chicken n Waffles when it was just a house and Larry was working the kitchen and always conversing. Over the years, this place has been my go-to spot when I need some southern comfort food here in the valley. I'm always been a big fan of chicken, wings, waffles, and drinks and always find a way to mix it up. From the Toy-toy, Double D's, the LoLo's, it all depends on my hunger (or greed). I'm a fan of a crispy waffle so I also make this request when ordering and it delivered again. 2 of favorites sides here are the Mac & Cheese & Collard Greens. Pricey sides, but worth it. If your in the mood for a lot of sides, I would recommend the Soulfood Platter. As for a cocktail, the Blackberry Paloma... I think I sucked it down like my daughter's Blue Kool-Aid. This time around it was daddy-daughter quality time after a long day of sports. The DJ was on point and blended the right old skool jams that my daughter recognized. The classic was Slick Rick & Doug E Fresh joint that had all the old heads in there doing the lyrics and my kid was looking at me like I lost my mind. Love the family vibe, love the culture & always a great experience. One suggestion, make sure the customer service stays on point with promptness and follow-up, I'd like to see them help each other out to provide the best customer experience for guests. It didn't impact our service, but noticed it did for a few other tables. read more

We stopped for lunch at the original location of Lolo's Chicken and Waffles on Central in Phoenix. You can never go wrong at Lolo's! I really love the look of this place. The exposed brick and wood beams in this whole building really add to the feel. There are pictures of the family all over which give it a very personal touch. As always, I check out wedding fixtures, and I love the ones here - - especially the mason jar lights. The old school r&b that plays in the background is a perfect match. There are some great murals on the outside of the building. We were served by Jasmine, who might actually be the best server in the world. She is super friendly and upbeat - - like a ray of sunshine! I made sure to order dessert first so I wouldn't risk not having room for it. That was a good move because the portions here are HUGE. We had: *The Little Amadi (chicken& waffles) *The Phat Azz Sammich *Banana Puddin' Everything was so good. I have to mention the fries, which are sooooooo good. I normally don't like leftover fries, but I brought home some fries with my Sammich and and they were still so good reheated. This place is always a good bet, and even though I was sad when the Gilbert location closed, I have to say I like this location better anyway. read more

This was our first time in Phoenix and we wanted to patronize a Black owned restaurant especially during the economic blackout on 28 February 2025. We (a group of 5) were seated pretty quickly and enjoyed the live DJ and classic Black tv show clips while we waited. The food was GREAT!! I had the platter with 3 piece dark, candied yams, collards with smoked turkey and cornbread . Everyone in my group got a variation of the same. The sweet tea was EXTRA sweet so I had to water mine down which was fine. They even had Kool-aid (red & purple)!! My sister had a Henny Drop Our waitress was great and had excellent recommendations!! Most DEFINITELY will return when I come back to Phoenix!! read more

Food was phenomenal, ambiance was pretty cool, but that service was top notch. We had Vanessa be our waitress and she was very kind, willing to help out, and get us anything we needed.

Our housemate asked for fried chicken for their birthday. We decided to come here and this place did not disappoint. The chicken is amazing. I had mine with waffles, eggs and grits. Everything was delicious on my plate. My partner ordered collard greens with her dinner - they were unexpectedly spicy, so I hope you're into that. Service was mostly good. We ordered a plate of the fried green tomatoes. They never arrived and eventually our server told us they were out. By that point we had all realized we weren't going to finish the delicious food we had, so we were fine with it. I would definitely recommend. read more

First allow me to start off by saying we drove 2hours to this particular location. From the minute we walked through the door we felt at home. This is the most Blacks we've seen since leaving in Arizona. Clearly we're in the wrong parts..... The hosts was nice and got us seated quickly! Our waitress was Vanessa and she let us know the wait would be approximately 50-60 minutes! WE DID NOT CARE!!! We ordered drinks and started vibing to the Live Dj!!! The food was cooked just right! Vanessa was a Wonderful Waitress!!!! We got our pictures taken and ended up purchasing them! Wonderful Atmosphere!!!! read more
