Love the train car atmosphere!! Our waitress, Sarah was Amazing and attended to our every request and need. She even took our pic on the train with our friends. We were talking it up with them and forgot to take any more pics of our food. The smash burger and the poke bowls were Great. The truffle parm fries were my favorite. We will definitely make another trip from the Gulf coast to eat here with family and friends. read more

Lots of choices. Good Food with whatever dish you choose. Train car available to dine in. Fun place, good experience.

Arrived about one hour to closing. Verified kitchen was still open (since there was only 2 tables eating and 1 looked finished on a Saturday night) after we were seated I needed you restroom. 1 said out of order, no biggie.... second 1 I stood outside and could hear what sounded like a video game playing, 15 minutes later and employee came out. No flush, no sink noise (maybe hid there for break time) our waitress was rude during ordering. Food was not very tasty. Our party of 3 felt underwhelmed, especially for the price. We live in Mandeville and our friends in Covington...said they always skip this place, I now know why. The burger was one of the worst, the tacos were just average and good luck getting any refills on a drink. read more

Nice restaurant with a unique menu. You go to the counter to place your order and get your drink. I ordered the Cuban sandwich with truffle fries. The sandwich was large and delicious. They had ooey gooey butter cake slices and chocolate and vanilla chip cookie that was massive and looked awesome. read more

Lola - Cuban sandwich - American Near Me - Covington, Louisiana

Sitting in the train car was the best part of the meal. The waitress was friendlyand did a good job. But the food was just so-so.

Dropped in with my wife for a Friday lunch and enjoyed our first experience at Lola, which is situated adjacent to the justice center, trailhead, and downtown areas in Covington. Lola features a neat and attractive small dining room, with space also in a vintage railway car. An outside deck is also available. Decor is tasteful and understated, and counter service is friendly and efficient. The lunch menu sports a number of specialty artisanal sandwiches and salads, and we had Cuban and Muffuletta sandwiches sided by the signature Lola salad. Sandwiches were very good and featured a ciabatta bread that was especially tasty. The Lola salads were also quite good and boasted an excellent house dressing with cranberries. We didn't try desserts or cocktails, but several quite appealing ones were available. Reservations are required for evenings (Friday and Saturday) and we will look forward to trying the dinner menu in the future. Recommended! read more

Lola - Lola Cuban on Ciabatta with signature Lola salad side - lunch - American Near Me - Covington, Louisiana

Lola never misses, as usual! We wanted to try some things off the newly updated menu! Market fish is always a hit, as well as the Pork Belly appetizer. We had to get 2 desserts because we just couldn't decide - both were delicious. Great service as always and so beautifully decorated for the holiday season! This is my favorite restaurant for a reason! Highly recommend to everyone read more

We were seated in the box car, which was so cute, loved the vibe in there. We had some great cocktails, grapefruit and watermelon martinis, along with some delicious apps and entrees. We had the fish special and the sides with it were spot on... great combination. Also, our waitress was very nice and helpful on recommendation. A big thanks for Lola being so customer focused. My husband had left his glasses, and we didn't realize until the next day. They went beyond and above to get them back to us. read more

The vibe was impeccable, the food was a 10/10 and the service was perfect. Highly recommend.

My experience was excellent. Our waiter was very nice and attentive. Food was a 10 out of 10. Definitely recommend. read more

Lola - Boudin Empanadas, Devilled Eggs, and Hummus - American Near Me - Covington, Louisiana

We made reservations and they actually had a specific table waiting for us. Our server came right away with water and took our cocktail order. I had the Ginger Snap which tasted like gin infused ginger ale. My wife had their Cosmo - both were delicious. For the appetizer, we had the Deviled eggs that come with fried oysters on them. One of the best things I've eaten in a long time. For entrees I had the Crawfish Risotto and my wife had the Ahi Poke Bowl. Both were wonderful. We had wine by the glass with dinner. The wine list isn't long but it had something for everyone. Lola is a quirky place with half the seating in an old railroad car-we were in the main dining room. It's a little noisy but still intimate and they don't jam the tables together to fit more guests in. They only serve dinner Friday and Saturday. It's a little pricey but we enjoyed it immensely. read more

I went there for lunch today with a friend and it was really busy around 12:45 but our lunch was served very quickly. We got to sit in the train caboose which was lovely. I got an arugula salad with crispy chicken on top. I forgot the name of it but it was delicious. I think it was called something like Milanese Chicken Salad? It was a little pricey but I would go back. read more

We came for lunch a little after the opened at 11:30 on a Thursday morning. Around 12 they got really busy but the service still seemed quick. There was ample seating as there is a main building and some train cars they converted as well as patio seating. We ordered from the counter and they brought the food to our table quickly after. The portions are huge which is good considering it's a little more on the expensive side for a sandwich (~$15-20). We got the Cuban, club and shrimp salad and a side of truffle Parmesan fries. The fries are the shoestring type. Delicious with a homemade sauce similar to a remoulade sauce. We also got the hummingbird cake. read more

Such a delight!! When you walk up -go left- into the brick building to order at the counter. I got confused, doesn't take much.... Once you order you can pick either the Streetcar or the main building to eat. I chose the super cool streetcar of course! The food is superb. We ate there for lunch- very casual. I have the best company for all my dinner dates, so that always adds to the atmosphere :) read more

Our waiter was Zach and we sat in the train car. The setting was as beautiful as they come. Zach was super attentive, even with the heavy load of patrons. I had pan seared duck over a bed of root vegetables Steen's au jus. Arguably the best duck I've ever eaten. Wife had the market fish, which turned out to be a big piece of grilled mahi, and she was over the moon. Prices were moderate including the drinks. Definitely a great excuse to come back to Covington and eat here again! read more

My wife and I recently went here for a date night. We loved it. Food was delicious and the staff was amazing. Highly recommended!

My colleague and I stopped by this place for a quick work lunch. The atmosphere was definitely amazing. Since we were not there during the typical lunchtime, we didn't wait so long (only three or four people were ahead of us). I had the "COBB"-OOSE salad (no bacon). It was quick and delicious! The price was reasonable considering the good portion my salad came with. I was really satisfied with this place. Although I am not familiar with this area, I would definitely recommend it if you're looking for a quick lunch place. read more

We sat in the rail car dining room-super cool experience. The staff were very friendly and attentive. We ordered some drinks- spicy watermelon margarita and an old fashioned- refreshing cocktails. We decided on the deviled eggs and Crab Rangoon as appetizers, both were exceptional. Dinner consisted of blackened redfish- so fresh and cooked to perfection, my wife elected for the scallops with sweet potato hash- this is must! Do not miss out on LOLA! read more

Superb sandwiches on homemade bread. BEST sandwich EVER!!!! Memorable munchies. Appetizers, sides, and drinks ALL complimented the main event! read more

The train car is a beautiful setting for dinner. Get the brussel sprouts for an appetizer. The entrees we had were the steak and duck but it broke my heart they traded the Korean flank steak for a chimichurri hanger steak offering. Please bring it back. The overall food quality is as good as many restaurants in downtown offer. The service is good with minimal wait times for servers to come back to your table as needed. read more

Never been dissatisfied with this place. Excellent very time. My wife is a professional chef and this is one of her favorites too. I have yet to have a better po-boy anywhere. Had the shrimp po-boy today. Awesome! Love the atmosphere too!! read more

Can't say enough about this place. So much food, my husband and I split this delicious sandwich. Counter service ordering. The food is so good. Corn and crab bisque was AMAZING! The service was excellent. In an old train station, giving this restaurant all the charm. Went for lunch, and got our food in less than 10 minutes. Can't wait to go back and save space for dessert. Rail car is available for rent for private parties, looks like such a great space. read more

Service was excellent and train car ambiance was pleasant. The food was okay. 3 out 6 really enjoyed their meal. I had the crispy pork piccata and it was not up to Lola standards. The pork was fried very crispy. So crispy I almost needed a steak knife to cut it and it was difficult to chew. The piccata sauce was so skimpy. It had plenty of capers but there was almost no lemon or butter is the dish. It was a bit tasteless. The best part of the meal was the spinach under the fried pork read more
