Appetizers
Julia M.

My friend and I had a great experience at Sushi Lola's! The service was excellent and our drinks were never empty. We ordered two appetizers and they also brought spring rolls to our table for free. From the appetizers to our sushi, everything was delicious. They also give out cookies for free! It's a warm, family-like environment, they're always giving out food for free and the food quality is always excellent!

Crazy Japanese roll next to the tuna tartar

My best friend and I were doing a Orlando Science Center event and decided to drive around to grab a meal beforehand. Several places were really packed so we kept driving till we went down Corrine drive and found a parking spot at the strip mall where Sushi Lola was. The spaces were crazy packed. We walked in and stood at the door, waiting for a good bit as the three servers handling a busy bunch of eaters, taking orders, bringing out plates, etc. Finally one of the tables was cleared and we were seated, the elder male server took the chopsticks and the little soy sauce cup, adjusting it correctly when it was moved by me before handing us menus and heading off to do other things. A few minutes later, one of the ladies came by to take drinks orders and our food requests. I went simply with a fountain drink ($4), a fire dragon roll ($17) and TNT roll ($17). My best friend got the tuna tartar ($15) and crazy Japanese roll ($16). Her tartar was freaking spicy and so was one of mine - the one with the small shrimp and mini scallops kicked my mouth with heat. Dang. The service was good but you need to be patient since they are busy. Once our rolls were handed off they pretty much left us alone and it took a bit to get the bill but we received little plastic wrapped chocolate cookies as a treat. So nice! I want to try various other rolls from the vast selection. The sound was loud due to the medium sized seating area and some of the folks were also being boisterous but it wasn't awful.

Super great sushi spot on mills. The hostess who may have been the owner was top tied. This place that looks like a hole in the wall served up the most delicious spider roll I have ever had in Orlando. Crispy, sweet and delicious. I loved how spicy their sushi nachos were and the shrimp chips were crisp and clearly freshly fried. We were served krab volcano balls as a gift from the kitchen and they were lovely. If you are looking for quality sushi in a laid back environment this is your spot!

We've always enjoyed Sushi Lola's. First, a heads-up: parking can be a hassle, especially on the weekend. Parking spots turn over slowly so plan a few extra minutes. The food is consistently good and portions that feel fair for the price. You can order your favorites with confidence and expect the same result each visit. The staff is genuinely nice, welcoming without being pushy, quick with refills, and attentive even when the room is busy. They manage to keep a steady tempo without making you feel rushed. The neighborhood adds to the experience. There are a bunch of unique shops in this plaza and this space fits right in. Bottom line: not the easiest parking, but consistently worth it.

30. Fire Roll
Christien B.

First time trying this local staple and was overall very, very happy! It's a small, simple restaurant with a locals/neighborhood feel. I love that it's family owned and operated. You can sense the pride they have for such a wonderful spot in Orlando's culinary scene. We shared the Lava Dips - which were supposed to be similar to Crab Rangoons. The flavor was unique but tasty. Shared amongst my group were the FIRE and MAGIC rolls as well as a spicy tuna. The FIRE roll had quite the kick, and I believe is the spiciest on the menu. The MAGIC roll comes out on fire and was by far, my favorite. It had a melty, full of flavor taste and everything was super fresh. So excited I got to try with friends and continue to support this place!!

Pot of tea
Khyla L.

Sushi Lola's is excellent! We didn't wait long at all to be seated, the severs were attentive and sweet! We ordered the rainbow roll, playboy roll, sweet potato roll, calamari tempura, vegetable tempura, fried rice and a pot of tea. The sushi was incredibly fresh and the tempura was perfectly crunchy. The fried rice was probably the best I've ever had- we ordered that combo with shrimp, steak, and chicken. I wanted to eat every grain of rice. I usually drown calamari in lemon, but that was not even necessary in this case because it was perfectly cooked in the tempura batter. It was a little chilly in the restaurant, but it's Florida, so that is pretty welcome on a hot day. I was comfortable with a little sweater. Definitely recommend.

This has become one of my favorite local sushi spots. Their Happy Hour is M-F from 4-6p. 2 regular rolls for $16 and 2 delux rolls for $26. Many options to choose, and highly recommend the deluxe list if you're a fan of raw sushi. My personal favorite is Pink Lady, pictured at the far left. As you can see we indulged on a few selections. The service staff is welcoming and offered their recommendations when asked. It's located near the EastEnd Market and offers both indoor and outdoor seating. Check them out!

Spicy tuna and 12. Philly Roll
Evie N.

We LOVE sushi Lolas!!! You cannot beat their happy hour- we got 4 rolls and 4 drinks for under $70. Our favorite roll is the pink lady for sure!! Service was great and accommodating for having a toddler with us!

2. Vegetable Fried Rice
Saul L.

A true staple in the heart of the Mills area. This spot has a fantastic happy hour from 4-6 PM: two deluxe rolls for $25 -- a great deal. Not pictured here but highly recommended is the Tuna Crunch (crispy rice topped with tuna), which was easily my favorite item on the menu. The sushi overall was fresh, flavorful, and creative. The Pink Lady roll is perfect for anyone who loves cream cheese, while the Desiree roll, made with real crab, was my personal favorite. The only dish I didn't love was the fried rice -- the sesame oil was a bit overpowering for my palate. The biggest downside of the experience, however, was the service. Our server didn't seem very knowledgeable about the menu, simply repeating the descriptions when we asked questions. He also hovered uncomfortably at the table while we tasted everything, and when it came time to pay, we had to flag him down after watching him complete several other tasks before bringing us the check. I'm not sure if he was new, but it did make the experience feel a bit awkward. Overall, the food here is excellent -- fresh and full of flavor -- but the service left something to be desired. I'd still recommend it for the quality of the sushi, especially during happy hour.

A little bit of everything!
Sara D.

Wow! Every time I go here I am more impressed! The food is always amazing and all the servers are so sweet! The hot tea is so yummy and the sweet potato roll is my go to. Definitely recommend!

I can't believe I haven't written a review for this place. This was by far one of my favorite sushi spots but I feel like something's have changed. It's been a while since I've been here but I'm glad they still offer happy hour on Saturdays from 4-6PM. Not that many places offer that so it's nice to see but I do feel like it is a bit pricey or some of the rolls on the happy hour menu end up being the same price if you ordered it normally. The roll sizes are big so that's a plus. Unfortunately our server wasn't very helpful. He didn't know the menu well enough t answer any questions and he didn't seem eager to help find out the answer. But the quality and taste of the rolls were delicious.

18. Crazy Japanese Roll and 36. Rendezvous Roll
Bunyaka N.

I remember really enjoying this restaurant when I visited a few years ago. However, when I visited on Saturday night before my friend's birthday party, it turned out to be a bad decision. We waited for a table for roughly 30 minutes, and the staff didn't communicate with us at all while we were waiting. When our table was finally available, it took them another 10 minutes to clean and seat us. Once we sat down, our server informed us that they had fewer kitchen staff because there was no dishwasher staff on that day, so we couldn't order Kalbi. We could only order sushi. I wish they had told us that when we were waiting so that we could have decided whether to wait or go somewhere else. For appetizers, we ordered Baked Scallop which was good, but there wasn't much scallop or seafood in it. I ordered Spider Roll, Jazzy Roll with Salmon, and Wednesday Morning Roll, while my husband got Rendezvous Roll and Crazy Japanese Roll. Unfortunately, all the rolls were average. The rice was overcooked, and the sashimi didn't taste fresh to me. The deep-fried rolls and ingredients were also very cold. Although I love supporting local businesses, I wish they would pay more attention to the quality of the ingredients and service they provide.

11. Shrimp Tempura Roll
Kat G.

Love this place so much! The sushi is always great and fairly priced. It does get a bit chaotic during peak dinner time, and the service can sometimes be a little slow but the wait is always worth it. Sushi is always fresh. The lava dips are my favorite, you can taste the authentic crab meat. Definitely recommend the surf and turf roll as well, the beef bugolgi pairs nicely with the shrimp. This place is great for a casual dinner. My friends and I always take time to stop by when we're in town

There was also live jazz playing near the buffet, which added such a nice, relaxing vibe. Parking downtown can be tricky, so we used the hotel valet, but there are nearby garages as well if you prefer to self-park. The buffet was phenomenal. My favorites were the mac and cheese, prime rib, shrimp (they were HUGE), crab legs, and the tableside cinnamon bun dessert -- honestly worth the trip just for that. My only downside was that the oysters didn't taste very fresh. Overall, the ambiance was beautiful and it's a perfect brunch spot for a date or a family outing. Definitely a lovely Sunday experience!

They have a little sign by the street to help you find it/advertising, as it's in the hallway of the plaza. It's on the ground level so we didn't have to take any stairs or elevator. Upon entry, there was no one to greet us. We headed to the register where they had a bunch of menus and pictures. While we were looking, the lady came out from the back with food items for someone who was already seated. Everything looked good. There was a guy waiting for his order to go, another guy waiting to eat by himself, and another lady also waiting to eat by herself. There was some interview going on between two guys- sounded like it was about the restaurant as I heard them talking about kimchi fried rice. It sounded so good, I ordered that with shrimp. Mom had the bento box lunch. We asked for two cups for water, which she said she would bring to us. We sat for awhile, and saw the others and the to go person get their food. The water cups did not come until after she brought us our food. Maybe that's the way they do it? Anyhow- our food was out in a reasonable time and everything was delicious. I tried some of mom's beef bento box- she got the bulgogi beef and we were both a little shocked that it was ground beef and not thin slices, but the flavor was spot on. My mom did not finish her lunch and I had a small portion of rice left. When I asked for one to go box- the lady almost seemed upset that I didn't want two! She asked me what about my leftovers? To which I said my mom was taking everything in one box. lol. We don't like to waste and I wasn't going to toss mine but it seemed silly to get another box for the little bit of rice I had. So we put it all in one. We paid at the register and took our box. There are many more items on the menu I'd like to try. My mom was pretty impressed with the place. It's nothing to look at, really, but the food is good and she will probably bring her friends here for lunch.
