I have travelled quite a bit around Spain - From Barcelona to Madrid, and San Sebastian to Granada…read more-- and this little bar/bistro in Zaragoza is hands down my favorite. The location itself is perfect -- minutes walk from the main plaza. The restaurant has a nice clean and modern feeling with both indoor and outdoor seating.
The tapas are divine -- each one I tried was delightful -- the croquetas being the best I have had in Spain. Most recently, I ordered a hamburger, reasonably priced at 6 Euro, and hands down it was the best hamburger I have ever had outside the US. In fact, better than many I have had in the US.
The service is excellent admist a culture that isnt sevice oriented. Each wait person I have met is kind, friendly, helpful, and has gone out of their way to make this blonde from Seattle feel right at home in Zaragoza -- one has wven gone as far as to google things for me to teach me about food words that were lost in translation.
If you are in Zaragoza -- do yourself a favor and have a drink and dine at La Lola. How desperately I want to pack the restaurant and its staff into my suitcase and bring them all back to Seattle -- where I am quite certain it would be a dashing success!
Muchisimas gracias por el buen servicio y la comida excelente!
