Me and my friends were in search of a good brunch place in Seattle for one of our friend's birthday and came across Lola thru OpenTable. As we looked at the menu, we thought that the food choices were interesting and that it wasn't a typical american brunch offering. Upon our arrival the host was very accommodating as we wanted to bring in balloons and cake. They were very friendly and the food was amazing that we weren't able to take photos before devouring the meal. The place had a very cozy feel. 10/10 would recommend and would come back to try more. Must try: Lamb Kebab read more

Had a nice dinner here. Highlights were the pita, all of the dips, the seafood stew, and the fried calamari. The chermoula sauce for the calamari was delicious. We personally did not care for the flavor or thigh meat chicken kebab but it was presented nicely and the sauce was flavorful. The steak was nice and cooked just right but could have used some finishing salt. We also had 3 cocktails. 2 of them were delicious. One which is not in the photos was called ouz operator and I simply did not enjoy it, at all, matter of personal taste. Server didn't ask how everything was or if we liked it, and I thought that was a bit odd. Our server was friendly but she was also busy with a lot of tables and our interactions felt more quick and business like. A couple times we needed something I had to make eye contact to get attention. Inside was quite nice. Simple. We had a booth by the window and it was just right. Overall a very nice time if you want this style of food. read more

We four had dinner and drinks on a Tuesday, and plan to be back. SERVICE: 5.0. Personable, attentive, and generous. AMBIANCE: 4.0. Only con was the volume: the high, hard ceilings amplified noise and made it difficult to hear our table conversation. Attractive art-deco colored hanging lamps. Streeet-level windows along two sides (as Lola is on a corner), with high upper windows also lining one of these sides. Nice seating arrangement, with 2 and 4 person booths in a row in a center aisle, and booths as wells as a few tables lining the sides. FOOD: 4.0. Very good. - Fattoush Salad: 4.5 - Spanakopita: 4.5 - Leg of lamb: 4.5. A plate of sliced lamb with a delicious sauce. - Coconut Cream Pie: 4.5. Not too sweet. Large slice we shared. Wine selection was sufficient. I enjoyed the Vinkara Kalecic Karasi from Turkey. read more

I was visiting Seattle over a holiday weekend, and we stopped by Lola for brunch. Most restaurants in the area were closed for the holiday, so we didn't have any high expectations, but we were very pleasantly surprised that this ended up being one of our favorite meals on our trip. I made a brunch reservation the night before and there were plenty of open time slots. It was a little busy but there were a couple of tables open. The service was very fast despite the holiday. We ordered the Lola breakfast and the eggs Benedict. The crispy potatoes that came with both meals were really good. The eggs were very fluffy and the sauce on the benedict was flavorful and lemony. I'd definitely come back here for brunch next time I'm in Seattle. read more

Visited with a friend who made a brief trip to Seattle. We came for brunch on a weekend and made a reservation, so there was no wait but it was definitely crowded. I would definitely suggest making a reservation ahead of time if you can! For the food, I really liked the hash brown/falafel hybrid--super unique and really delicious! Their beignets were also nice and fluffy and the toast was decent as well. However, I wasn't a big fan of their scrambled eggs. Overall it was a solid choice for brunch, I'd order something different for my main dish though! read more

Lola, a Tom Douglas restaurant is amazing. I have not been to this place for a long time. I'm glad I did tonight. I am so glad it has continued to have great food and service. Ambiance is awesome! Lots of people so make your reservations like us. We ordered a shared appetizer - pita bread and all 6 kinds of toppings hummus, tzatziki, and all they offer. Each one of us had an entree ranging from lamb burger, chicken, mushroom and lamb kebabs - all so good. It was so tender and tasty. Enough to fill us. Love it! So good! Kebabs were served on a hot plate. Nice presentation. Service was outstanding. Good attentive service . read more

Lola is a cute corner spot in the downtown area. I came in on an early weekday morning before a conference to grab the pancakes and maple sausage that I'd heard about so much. The service was kind and attentive - especially when they confirmed that I could get a single pancake to complement my breakfast. The pancake was the star! I recommend this place for a great breakfast! read more

Service was friendly and there was plenty of seating inside with mood lighting. No reservations needed as we just walked in on a weekday around 7:30 pm. The server came up to greet us and make suggestions. We tried their grape leaves rice rolls, Bean Shakshuka, and pita bread dip with olive and figs. Everything was priced quite high and did not really hit the spot for me. I wasn't a big fan of the grape leaves rice rolls. Their pita bread with fig and olive dip was recommended by the server and was told you wouldn't taste the olive but olives were the only thing you could taste..and I am not a fan of olives :( The bean Shakshuka was probably the best. It came with 2 slices of toasted bread, a warm slightly mild tomato base, cheese, and beans. Pretty good! I also don't know why there is a door directly inside the hotel that leads to this restaurant inside, but they have a signage to go around .. meaning to go outside in the COLD OR SNOW (yes it was snowing at midnight) to enter the restaurant from their front door. If I'm staying at this hotel, it would be nice to have direct access to the restaurant inside. Would come back if I'm staying at the Andra again, but would probably order their breakfast menu instead. read more

A few friends and I went out to Lola on a Saturday night. We made a reservation, which probably wasn't strictly needed with our arrival around 6 PM, but the restaurant was pretty full by the time we left. The overall vibe of the restaurant is great - very New York with just one long sitting area with the kitchen at the back basically. Our booth had a nice view of Virginia street. The food was good - the scallops and saganaki particularly stood out. My only complaint was the prices. We opted for skewers, but were quickly told that a side would be needed in order to feel full. While the Greek spaghetti was good, it was pretty basic for a $17 price tag, combined with a $21 cheese and fig fig skewer that only had a 6 or so pieces each of fig and cheese. Beer is also a little expensive for the area at $9 a pint. Overall nice and near a major bus arterial, but would likely only come back with out of town guests if showing them around downtown Seattle and we needed a fancy and conveniently located restaurant. read more

Good breakfast and brunch pass through, perfect for corporate stays nearby swinging over from hotels. Nice mixes and overall portions for singular or very shareable time in the space. A simple diner by feel, but the taste steps above any basic diner recipes and does well at what it aims for. Overall a worthwhile brunch for a small group. The space is small enough that I would generally want to avoid it when very crowded. read more

A booked reservation made for quick seating. The traditional breakfast is what I ordered and thought it would be good. It was indeed a great breakfast. The thick cut slices of bacon and the Greek fried smashed potatoes were mouth watering. Every bite of the potatoes were crunchy and perfectly crisp. The blueberry compote jelly with the sourdough bread was a great sweet ending to the savory breakfast. read more

Went here for Valentine's Day dinner and it was quite lovely! The wine was excellent--we got the Orcas Project Sangiovese and the Sellas Agiorgitiko. For dinner, we had one of the Valentine's Day specials, Imam Byaldi, which was a very tasty eggplant dish. We also got spanakopita, which I was delighted to find out was vegan. It was pretty good, especially for a vegan version. The star of the show was truly the dessert. We got the doughnuts and the hazelnut malted milk cremeaux. Both of them were incredible! It was busy for the holiday but service was still excellent. I dropped my napkin and one of the employees who was bussing tables went above and beyond to pick it up and get me a new one before I even noticed I dropped it! My only complaint is that the plates, table, and glassware all needed to be scrubbed a little more. Overall great experience and good food! I'd like to come back and try brunch sometime. read more

I have been wanting to try this place for so long and it took a really long time to actually get a reservation. You have to book in advance for brunch definitely. My friends and I ordered the Greek scramble, Octopus Hash, Kebab plate, and donuts to share. The Greek scramble was 10 out of 10. The eggs were delicious and the toast was perfectly cooked. I love how buttery it was too. We also got the potatoes on the side for both of our options and I would definitely recommend that - they're very crispy and flavorful. My friends also liked the other two options. I didn't get to try them because they were meat. The donuts were also good but they're just typical donuts. I would probably recommend going somewhere else for dessert across the street. There is a bakery with great cookies and dessert options. Inside is very nice they kept the shades down which made the place very dark. I wish they would let the light in but still it's a very cozy feeling. read more

Delicious food, fabulous staff, and cozy decor! I've been to Lola about three times in as many years, and every time I wonder why I don't go more often! My husband and I shared the doughnuts, I had the gravlax, and he had the Lola breakfast. The doughnuts are fluffy and warm, the gravlax was generously portioned, and the fried potatoes and breakfast sausage are truly unique to Lola in the most delicious way. Their espresso was not good though- it somehow both lacked flavor and was too bitter? I could not get myself to drink that ounce-and-a-half of espresso, even with a sugar cube. And I am not a coffee connoisseur. Even for Seattle standards, it was a pricey meal. The three dishes and an espresso came out to almost $75. I would certainly go back and recommend it to others from out of town, but probably wouldn't go out of my way to go back. read more

We've been here in the past. In fact, it's our favorite among the Tom Douglas restaurant empire. We were a group of 6, seated comfortably in a banquette in the middle of the room. This is a lively place, always filled with a lot of upscale looking customers. So the atmosphere is quite loud, but fun in a buzzing way. We were seated quickly, as we had reservations. Our server Charlie, was engaging, friendly and on top of things. We ordered the shared dips---olive tapenade, eggplant, hummus, tatziki with some warm pita triangles. They're all good and a fun way to start the dinner. We each had kebabs---lamb, chicken and mushroom. All good, moist and tender all poured with a jig of ouzo on a hot skillet. The onions in the bottom get browned and crusty, so good to eat. One had a lamb burger which looked juicy and served with delicious mound of fries sprinkled with rosemary. Food here has always been awesome. Skipped dessert as we had homemade cookies to eat at our next stop. read more

We were staying not too far from here and asked for a fun place for breakfast. Everyone recommended Lola. That was a smart move. Very comforting atmosphere here. We were brought to our seat immediately and our server came right over to bring water and menus. Both myself and my wife seem to order the same thing all the time. I am two over easy with link sausages and she is two very well (kill them) with well done bacon. They did a nice job here that everything was extremely tasty and FRESH. Nice clean tasty eggs and sausage and bacon that defiantly did not come out of the freezer. It's funny how you can taste freshness. Their breads are clearly of a homemade style and they have their own homemade jams. I am sure we'll be back in the Seattle area and Lola will definitely be a breakfast or lunch spot for us. read more

Traveling with my 5 kids and my wife and we always look for new places to eat. Lola has a cozy yet big enough space for the 7 of us to sit at a single table. The staff was the perfect amount of engaging - being present when needed but not hovering. The food was fantastic. Everyone ate their entire plate. I really enjoyed the bacon and garlic potatoes. My wife enjoyed her granola. On our list to try again. read more

Trendy Mediterranean spot with a stylish vibe, but the service fell short. Our server wasn't very attentive, and the host or manager eventually brought our check since our server was nowhere to be found. We started with the smoked eggplant dip -- portion was quite small, and the flavor leaned a bit too tangy for my taste. The pita, however, was excellent: warm, soft, and fluffy. For mains, I had the chicken kebab plate (wish they offered a beef option), while my partner had the pork kebab. The chicken was tender but one piece was slightly pink. The pork had a light flavor and could've used a bit more seasoning. The standout was the Greek salad -- fresh ingredients and a lovely vinaigrette that tied everything together. read more

We were looking for a brunch spot when we arrived in Seattle and we found this place. Immediately we sat down at the bar because they had open seating.

We really enjoyed Lola's. The service was great. We made reservations so we were seated right away. Brunch started with the warm donuts and they were perfection. The pancakes were the best buttermilk I have had. Spot on. My son liked the French toast but didn't love the sauce. He felt it had too much citrus and was a tad crusty on the top. It was good and the fresh fruit was perfect. The side of eggs were just that, nothing special. The atmosphere was loud but joyful. There were many groups there. We would recommend Lola and plan to go back again. read more

This was a great breakfast experience overall. The service was high quality -- attentive, warm, and well-paced -- which made the whole meal feel relaxed and enjoyable. The food itself was excellent, with well-balanced flavors and clearly fresh ingredients. The Eggs Benedict was a highlight. The poached eggs were done perfectly -- the yolks were just right, and the whites were well set without being overcooked or watery. It's a small detail, but it really reflects strong kitchen technique and attention to execution. A simple way to tell if poached eggs are done well: when you cut into them, the yolk should flow smoothly without being too runny or too firm, while the egg whites should be fully set and hold their shape (not wispy or diluted in the water). A clean, compact shape with minimal loose whites is usually a sign of good technique. Given the location, the pricing felt reasonable and fair for the quality you're getting. The only item that stood out as slightly overpriced was the regular brewed coffee. At around $5 per person, it felt a bit steep considering the taste was just average. I'm also not sure whether refills are included or would be charged again, which makes it harder to justify the value. Compared to that, even a standard Starbucks drip coffee would feel like a better value for money. Overall, I'd still highly recommend this place for breakfast -- great food, great service, and a lovely atmosphere. Just maybe skip the coffee or manage expectations on that part. read more

Came here in a group of ten and had a great time! Beautiful restaurant on a corner in Seattle! Half of us shared the dip spread with pita and we loved it! The tzatziki and the blue cheese - feta kopanisti were favorites. We had to order two extra sides of pita ($6 each) to finish all of the dip. Would recommend! We also tried the lamb, sockeye, chicken, and pork kebabs. I loved the sauce on the chicken and the sockeye was yummy! I didn't get to try the lamb or pork but everyone said the sauces were pretty sweet, and they were good! The rosemary fries were also pretty good as well. For drinks, we had the hugo's boss, vinho verde, west of Eden, espresso martini, no vacancy, and limoncello spritz! They were all yummy but the vinho verde and espresso martini stuck out to us! The limoncello was a but sweeter than expected and the hugo's boss was a touch too cucumbery but they were still finished. Our server was not very attentive, she never asked if we were enjoying our food and wasn't super warm but we did have a large party and the restaurant was loud so it didn't really take away from the dinner. Overall I would definitely come back and recommend it. It's pretty spendy but great if you are not worried about money or are looking for a spot for a special occasion! I wanted to add that they do not do birthday treats! (At least that's what our server told us) read more

We came in for brunch on Independence Day, and they got us seated shortly after we arrived a few minutes past our reservation. We ordered 4 things: Octopus Hash, House Made Gravlax, Smashed Garlic Potatoes, and Made to Order Doughnuts. My partner and I agreed that the best dish was the gravlax. Essentially a deconstructed lox bagel (instead of bagel it's rye toast), the fish was sooooo good. The cream cheese is chive, and it added an extra touch to the dish. Seattle salmon never disappoints! The octopus hash was good, but my partner said it was a bit one dimensional. Some pieces of the octopus were a bit rubbery, but overall a solid dish. The potatoes were very crispy and you could definitely taste the garlic. A very solid side dish! The server shook the doughnuts in a bag with cinnamon sugar table side, and I really liked the combo of the jam and cream together with the doughnuts. They were pillowy soft, and not oily at all. read more

The K-pop trio had breakfast at this very popular place at the corner of 4th Avenue and Virginia Street in the Hotel Andra Seattle. We were seated in a booth in the middle of the room. I started with a Bloody Mary (called a Lola Mary, $18), another had a Ginger Mint Spritzer ($9). We ordered the Lola breakfast ($25), comprised of two eggs, smashed garlic fried potatoes, maple pork sausage, and toast, the Greek Scramble ($23), consisting of scrambled eggs, roasted asparagus, red peppers, and Kasseri cheese with the garlic smashed potatoes and toast, and Eggs Benedict ($27) with garlic smashed potatoes. This was mine and there was so much sliced ham piled onto the English muffin that it was too much for me. I ended up removing much of the ham as it overpowered the delicate lemon Hollandaise sauce. Afterward, I realized I didn't get a cup of coffee. Whoa, my brain wasn't working in Seattle. This is a very popular place and there was a line of people waiting to dine when we departed. We went at just the right time (8:45am). Upon returning to Honolulu, I found the bill to be incorrect but, in our favor, (by $4). read more
