    Went to Lola's for Mother's Day brunch and honestly the short rib and grits completely stole the…read moreshow. The short rib was so tender it literally melted in your mouth. The grits were creamy, rich, and paired perfectly with the savory sauce and vegetables. One of those dishes where everybody at the table keeps sneaking bites off your plate. I also tried the steak and eggs over potatoes which was good too. The steak was cooked well and the potatoes were seasoned nicely, but after tasting those short ribs, nothing else really stood a chance. For the appetizer we ordered this fancy oyster dish that I cannot pronounce to save my life lol, but it was actually really good. Crispy, flavorful, and beautifully plated. Definitely a great starter if you want something a little different. The restaurant itself has such a charming atmosphere. The floral wallpaper, vintage decor, fresh flowers on the tables, and cozy setup made it feel warm and intimate without trying too hard. It was busy for Mother's Day brunch but still felt relaxed and enjoyable. Definitely a spot I'd go back to, especially for those short ribs and grits alone.

    The seafood paella from Lola's is still the best dish I've ever had in the city of New Orleans, and…read moregiven the city is known for its food that should tell you something. It's just downright delicious and filling too. The bartender was a bit awkward. She said she'd only worked there for two months, so maybe she is still trying to find her rhythm. Her interaction or lack thereof seemed notable enough to drop a star. Still, in a community full of solid dining options I'll recommend Lola's again and again.
