The food was exceptional. Watching chef prepare and plate the food and then getting it delivered with a smile is priceless. The only thing I would not recommend was the steak. A little under seasoned and did not compare with my fish with lobster ravioli entree. This is not a steakhouse, but it is special. If you enjoy dining and want to treat yourself to a special meal, this is the place. The key lime pie is the best on the island. Thick, rich, and tart. Incredible. Best place we’ve been all...

We did not expect to have the best eating experience of our life in Key West, and yet, it happened here. The scallops were enormous and exquisitely done, not rubbery but delicate, almost sublime, with a garlic sauce so complex it was the nuclear physics of taste. The Hog Fish had a sauce that was simple and complex with a kick, the beef filet was filling and reminded me why I enjoy good, high quality red meat. Dessert was bananas foster which was as wonderful and warm as a blanket wrapped around your shoulders in front of a fire on an icy February evening in northern Michigan. Even as the bananas foster began to cool, the cream retained it sweetness and the bananas their core warmth. The chef works without recipes and seems to add magic here and there like someone casting spells. This is what it must have been like to watch Picasso paint, or Renoir. We agreed we cannot recommend Lola’s enough! If you can get in there, consider by yourself lucky, because you won’t eat a better meal. Who knew a down to Earth chef on Key West Florida could blow away many a big city chef. BTW, service was wonderful, attentive without patronizing, intelligent and charming. Lola herself went above and beyond to keep us informed during our wait and keep us engaged. If you only eat in one place in Key West and you want to remember your meal for a long time, make a reservation at Lola’s.

Had dinner at Lola’s Bistro in Key West this past weekend and definitely recommend checking it out. It’s a small spot just off Duval, run by a couple — one’s the chef, the other’s the server. The chef cooks right in the corner so you can watch all the action. You have to call ahead for reservations, and the menu is verbal and changes nightly (you can ask for prices if you want). It’s BYOB with no corkage fee. It was a little warm inside, but the food made up for it. We started with a stuffed pepper filled with chorizo (not our favorite, but it was super fresh). Then we had a steak with mushroom sauce over rice and sea bass in tomato sauce — normally served over lobster ravioli, but we asked for rice instead because of a shellfish allergy. The sea bass was hands down the best I’ve ever had, and the steak was cooked perfectly. Everything was super fresh and made to order. 😋 No dessert because we were stuffed! Total came out to around $200 with tip and tax . Great experience, low-key vibe, and food worth coming back for.

First off we love this place. Chef and team work hard to make sure the dining experience is memorable, fun and beautiful each time. With that said here are some improvements and delights from our last experience. Even with some of the items listed below we will be back to support as we commend a unique establishment like this that pushes the barriers, makes the customer the first priority in their efforts, and shows up every day to create memories for everyone. Improvements: the mains - the pompano fish smelled fishy and just couldn't finish it. The bone-in veal was a tough one to eat, given the temperature it was served at, and the consistency of the meat was an issue. The win here for us would be if the purveyor can provide wild, fresh fish without smell. As for the veal, a filet, rather than bone-in, might have been better. Delights: our apps were fantastic - italian artichokes that were divine, melt in the mouth short rib, heavenly pecan pie & we brought a lovely red wine that rounded out the meal. yet another great memory in Key West, thanks guys and we'll be back.
