The apps were good and the paellas were good as well. Nothing remarkable but not bland/distasteful either. Service can be a bit slow here and I'm taking account it was a Friday night. Additionally, the restaurant says two hours of free parking but that's inaccurate. I parked for 2hours and 30 mins. The restaurant said they validated two hours but when I scanned the validation only $8 came off the total ( which is not 2 hours worth) and I ended up paying $20 for the parking. I see other reviews mentions the parking lot was an issue for them too. This place is about a 3.75 so I gave 4 stars. read more

Lola's - Chicken and sausage only paella and seafood paella - Spanish Near Me - Hoboken, New Jersey

See all

Went here for lunch with co-workers. We had reservations at 12 but when we showed up, they were still closed. They finally opened around 12:15 - 12:30 to seat and take our drink order. Was not a big deal as we were able to grab a table outdoors while waiting for others. Table and seats outside were filthy though and we had to use hand wipes to wipe the table and seats down. Beyond that service was good and food decent. We ordered a bunch of tapas and main entres of skirt steak, chicken, sea bass, and scallops to name a few. Drinks were ok - not too strong or weak. Table ordered mango mojito, margarita. We didn't try the sangria. Evening atmosphere is probably different but I would go back for decent tapas! read more

Cozy and glowing with charm! Lola delights on tapa dishes and ambiance! Barrels are used as the tables and it adds a unique style to dining. I was craving Paellas and opted for their Seafood Paella! The flavor of the seafood and Spanish rice being well cooked, was comfort to the soul and hit the spot on my Paella level! We ordered up other tapas like the sausage and grilled pulpo! I like the perfect crunch to my grilled pulpo as it was nicely drizzled with oil and dressing! Sausage plate was okay - noting, a typical fajita with grilled bell peppers in the mix. I like how they offered amuse bouche in the beginning. It warmed up my liking to the whole experience. read more

Always awesome. Owner is great. He's there every night. Takes pride and care for every customer. He managed to survive the Covid shut downs. This is epitome of small business that deserves your support. Food is good and prices are honest. Highly recommend. Please go and support. read more

Lola's - La Teja Lolas de Mariscos - Spanish Near Me - Hoboken, New Jersey

Great service, even better food! If you enjoy seafood you can't go wrong, and we will definitely be back.

Lola's is a solid tapas joint with a pretty tasty Red Sangria mix. The place is spacious inside and boasts a cool outdoor space. Me and my fellow foodies ordered so much food that the old waiter told us we were too greedy. I enjoyed the grilled octopus, lobster ravioli, shrimp in garlic sauce, avocado and apple salad and mussels. We also ordered the filet mignon bites but they were under seasoned and a bit over cooked. All in all a good night. Nice friendly atmosphere and good portions that don't leave you hungry or holding back a huge gut. read more

The ambiance is so cute. They play Spanish music and the decor is rustic. The staff is super nice! I got the lobster ravioli it was delish! read more

Lola's - Oh yeah - Spanish Near Me - Hoboken, New Jersey

Had a great dinner here the other night. They were packed outdoors and still busy indoors. The food was good, some items better than others, definitely get the cheese and meat plates. Our other favorite item was the mussels in the salsa verde. White Peach Sangria was delicious. A little expensive but great for a night out where you want to try a bit of everything. read more

I've been coming to Lola's for over 10 years. They're food and drinks are consistently delicious, the vibe is great, the people are spectacular. This place is a Hoboken gem. Best Spanish tapas I've had. My absolute favorite dishes here are the following: -Stuffed seafood avocado -Goat cheese pitas -Crab legs in brandy sauce -Skirt steak with portobello mushrooms -Potatatas bravas -Shrimp Ajillo in garlic sauce -Scallops wrapped in bacon in a raspberry sauce So muchmore good dishes honestly. I'm salivating thinking about it. Their Monkfish tastes like lobster. You won't be disappointed! read more

One of the best tapas places ive been to in a long time. You can taste all the freshness in all the meals. At Lola's you can get anything from potatoes to churasco to a full bar. The staff is very attentive and friendly. I will definitely be going back West New York to visit Lola's. read more

I can't believe I never left a comment after my amazing experience! I booked Lola's for a family style pre fixed dinner to celebrate my birthday. I had 18 guests and it had been the first time the majority of us had been there. Can I just say that you a 5 course meal With unlimited wine and sangria for 2 hours for $50. Tax and gratuity isn't included but they gave me an amazing deal and my friends loved it! I'm def coming back and Chris is the man! He was helpful, attentive and always willing to help! Thank you for a wonderful biet read more

I hate to do this but this is probably one of the worst most overpriced meals I've ever had. We ordered the lobster salad and the lobster had shells in it, not one but every single one of the three pieces. We ordered the cheese board, all of the cheeses tasted like they have been sitting out for a while. I would not recommend. read more

Came here for a night cap with one of my girls and it was exactly what we needed to end out night. The ambiance was pretty chill and they had good music playing in the background without it being obnoxiously loud where we couldn't hear each other. We ordered some mojitos and they were okay. They have a cute outside area which was already closed by the time we got there but the inside had a nice homey Spanish style feel to it and it appears they do private events downstairs. Our waiter was also pretty awesome and wished I remembered his name because we truly bonded with him lol Will go back to check out their food for sure and hopefully update this review :) read more

Pretty space, attentive wait staff. The grilled octopus was excellent but the other tapas we tried--shrimp in garlic, tortilla espanol, calamari and meatballs--were all under seasoned. We didn't order a steak but the table next to us did and it looked great. Was happy to see a lot of reasonably priced Spanish wines on menu. read more

This is definitely not authentic Spanish food in any regard. Thought to try some basics shrimp camarones tasted like the restaurant swapped kitchens with one of the many Hoboken Italian restaurants. Service during quarantine is also a disaster- tables are not socially distant and staff is busy people watching then seating patrons Will never be back read more

I am a generation too old for this place as geared toward groups of under 35 year olds. Though cocktails are the focus the food is good and very reasonably priced if not cheap though made up By 20 dollar cocktails. Could be a little dimmer as very bright for a place like this. Judge going for summer theme with the plant walls. Could use better wine list as though have decent wine by glass be better if had similar number of better wines by bottle. read more

A great spot in uptown Hoboken. Came for dinner on a Friday night and sat with ease. The wait staff was very friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable of the menu. We ordered the crab and shrimp stuffed avocado, lobster ravioli in vodka sauce, and fried calamari (highly recommend the first two). They have a short dink menu, but an extensive wine list if you ask for it. While we didn't order dessert, our waiter brought over a couple of complementary dessert shots which were very tasty. We will definitely be back! read more

Amazing food & sangria. Been here 10+ times, and will stay coming back... Very kind staff, very clean place

Always delicious, one of the best restaurants in Hoboken. Highly recommend for a special occasion, family loves coming here

Great vibe and very similar to Spanish restaurant actually in Spain. I had the tuna which was a little dry, but everything else was great.

TOTAL Hidden Gem - everything I have tried is spectacular I like to get the meals for 2 ppl that come out on a clay roof tile. They are SUPER accommodating and what a cool inside Free Parking - what else do you look for!?!?! read more

Absolutely one of my favorite spots on Hoboken. The ambiance, the service, the sangrias and the FOOD!!! It is overall a great dining experience and the food is truly some of the best I've had. My boyfriend and I's favorite spot at the moment. read more

Dope dope dope. Cool tapas spot for the area, looks just like a Spanish village inside.

Food is great but maaan prices keep going up and portions getting smaller. Butternut squash enchiladas are my fav and they are getting smaller and smaller. Like half the size lol. I get inflation but cmon. Lol. I'm still eating there tho haha read more

In Lola's defense, I did visit here after returning from Barcelona so my expectations were higher than they should have been. The decor is cute, and they have a gorgeous fountain in the center of the restaurant. The food here is okay. Nothing special, nothing terrible, just okay. It's very heavy on meats, cheeses, and seafood which is to be expected for a tapas spanish restaurant, but if you want ANY vegetables or salads, you are in the wrong place. It's a great location near Pier13 if you're leaving after a few bevs, but if you come here sober you'll be disappointed in the food. read more

*In a town like Hoboken that touches greatness in the field of Spanish/Cuban/Latin American food (among many other things, wish I could write a Yelp review of my city), Lola's is passable without standing out. -------------------------------------------------------------- Lola's is OK. I have wanted to love it, but it has become more of a fallback option for Hoboken. The decor is pretty cool, dark and rustic. Barrels and wood paneling. If you aren't sitting upstairs, and are unlucky enough to be seated in the basement, the decor tries to be similar, but it's more like, I dont know, poorly lit Bingo Hall, or afterthoughts to Aunt Peggy's retirement dinner. Service is spotty, and the staff gets overwhelmed when the place gets crowded. The real issue is the food. They have a good selection of tapas, generally par for the course when it comes to tapas - nothing overly creative or exquisite. The food is good, not great, and not poor, just good. Prices are reasonable. read more

Food good. Atmosphere on a Saturday was also upbeat. Value is not great as plates are small at the price, but it's fun. Trouble is that this place is COVID IRRESPONSIBLE. They are serving at full capacity. There wasn't an empty seat in the place, and tables were close together with no shields. They are operating normally. even the owner/ manager walks around with his mask half off and he pulls it down to talk to staff and customers. Not cool. read more

This place has a romantic atmosphere & the service was fine for a Saturday night. There was just 2. They validate the parking that is in a garage down the street which is awesome. For 2 of us we shared 4 plates (langoustines in brandy sauce, filet mignon in madeira sauce, fried calamari, & lobster ravioli). All were tasty & we enjoyed our meal. The house cabernet was excellent. I would recommend this place. read more

This place never stops impressing me. After years of being in business they keep the menu and the tablecloths fresh and clean. The staff seem too also enjoy working there as most are still there since years of going there. read more

The food here was exquisite. Tapas menu is perfect and the wine selection is on point. The avocado salad with crap and shrimp is to die for and the angel hair pasta with shrimp is seasoned to perfection. The cappuccino is served in a wine glass and perfect for sipping on their little outdoor area. They also had live entertainment which was pretty loud indoors, but sitting outside was a perfect option. Definitely recommend and Israel or Izzy for short was amazing on the service!!! read more
