Had a delicious chilled red and really lovely Friday night at Lolo We ordered: - A bottle of the Mas Coutelou 5SO Formidable* - Olives* - Rigatoni alla vodka - Stracciatella ice cream Lolo can be trusted to provide a lovely ambiance. Tucked way, it feels like you've stumbled on a little oasis in East Hollywood. Offering candle lit tables and a very kind + helpful wine sommelier, Lolo is my go-to for a sweet night out. Recommend making reservations, but in case you can't the bar area is just as nice (can get packed). read more

Nice quiet spot for after work drinks. Came on a Thursday and it was pretty dead but that might have just been because of the World Cup. Unfortunately my friend does not drink as much wine as I do so we opted for a couple of glasses instead of a bottle. Well, EYE had a couple of glasses to her 1. I wasn't incredibly impressed with the by-the-glass selection considering this is a whole wine bar but I found a few that I enjoyed. The bread & honey butter as well as the asparagus were both great. Asparagus was lemony and delicious, in particular. The crispy weiser potatoes were also good -- could have been a little crispier I thought! Service was great and very quick but mind you we were pretty much the only people in the room read more

Food was delicious, I had the branzino and it was **chefs kiss** They had many wine choices, you could have anything your pallet desires! The waitstaff were sooo friendly, I was with a friend who accidentally ordered something sweet due to a language barrier and basically they switched it no problem and found her something she loved at no extra charge. Actually I'd have to say it was all reasonably priced. Please note that gratuity is already included. So, why four stars? Well, the ambiance was beautiful, sure, however if you're meeting up to try and have a conversation please keep in mind that you will not be able to hear each other and will be shouting "WHAT" at each other until the check comes and you decide to go to a quiet coffee shop to share the stories you're dying to share. read more

I celebrated my birthday here and the staff were so kind and welcoming! We waited shortly in the bar area which is pretty small. The ambiance is cute but it gets pretty loud in there. Then they walked us over to the outdoor patio which was perfect because we practically had the space to ourselves! The menu is small so we got at least 2 of almost everything & did family style (we had a party of 9) I believe their menus are seasonal, we got 6 pastas 2 Rigatoni 9/10 1Cacio e pepe 8/10 3 Tortellini 6/10 3 plates of steak 7/10 2 Caesar salads 10/10 2 sides of potatoes 8/10 3 breads 7/10 2 bottles of wine No stand outs really, but everything was good! I liked their selections of wines. I loved the vibe here and would definitely come back! Our bill came out to be about $650 and gratuity was included. The only issue I'd say is parking, thankfully for a Friday night I got lucky and had parking out front. But it's only street parking. read more

Came here for drinks for my friend's birthday! Super cute bar / restaurant. Feels really intimate, dim lighting and nice date-night ambiance. I hear the food is really good. I just got a glass of their sparkling wine which was $18. Not a generous pour but it was pretty good. I also tried sips of their orange wine and their white wine but preferred the sparkling more. Will have to come back to try the food! read more

Lolo Wine Bar is a hidden gem that feels both cozy and quietly sophisticated. From the outside, the restaurant looks almost incognito, so it's easy to miss--but once you step inside, it opens up beautifully. There's a front bar immediately to your right, followed by the main dining room, ample patio seating, an additional seating area in the back, and then another bar tucked away even further in. The layout makes the space feel layered and intimate, while still lively. The dim lighting sets a romantic, laid-back mood, and the atmosphere feels warm without being stuffy. The menu is simple but thoughtfully curated, offering a great selection of wines, nonalcoholic beverages, and Italian-inspired entrées like burrata and branzino. We started with the castelvetrano olives, which were marinated and surprisingly less salty than I'm used to--really fresh and easy to snack on. We also had the burrata and beets, served with toasted bread that was salty, crisp, and absolutely delicious. For drinks, I tried the sparkling Chardonnay, which was light, refreshing, and perfect to start the evening. I followed that with an orange wine that had subtle lychee notes--easily my favorite of the two. Food-wise, the yellowfin tuna crudo stole the show and ended up being my favorite dish of the night. The rigatoni was also excellent: flavorful, rich, and perfectly al dente. Everything felt well-balanced and thoughtfully prepared. The service was great--attentive without feeling rushed--which made the whole experience even more enjoyable. A nice touch: gratuity is already included in the final bill, which takes the guesswork out of tipping and makes the experience feel even more seamless. Overall, Lolo Wine Bar is a charming spot with delicious food, interesting wines, and a relaxed, intimate vibe. I'd definitely go back. read more

Lolo's is an upscale wine-cocktail garden-cave-scape populated by overly attentive servers straight out of the Materialists. Most suitable for patrons with disposable income who can appreciate light pours and mediocre food as set dressing for the atmosphere created by the dimmest lighting and the brickest of walls. In other words: does my burrata have to be 20 bucks? Like everyone else noted: 20% gratuity automatically added to the bill for everyone (the language they use is "for parties 2 and larger"). The wine itself was decent but still overselling what they offer here. read more

Bread and butter! Bread and butter! Lolo is exquisite hidden gem in east Hollywood area with exceptional wine list and somewhat intriguing food. Interior of this place is intimate at night time and it could be the ideal spot to spend time with your friends or partner! Service is elegant and not "annoying" as in the other places. Some appetizers I even searched with chat gpt to make it home by myself - they are tremendously amazing and delicious! I will visit this place again and again! read more

I love Lolo! Went down here for a wine night date and it was the perfect spot. Dimly lit lights and chill ambiance with ton of space at the bar or small tables with loveseats makes for the perfect experience. We sat on the open bar wide so servers were casual but very attentive. I also loved the range of wine, they had skin contact which is my favorite! read more

Lolo is right by my house, it's an easy spot to walk to, about a block, but I never end up going. I can't remember anything standing out to me, but the vibe is really cool inside, very dark and intimate. It's a good spot to take a date, but the food and wine selection is okay. The servers are very friendly and again it's a cute interior and one of the few cool wine bars in the area. read more

I've been to Lolo's multiple times throughout the past year and recommended it as my go to wine bar spot. However, I was shocked this time around because the already small portion sizes have shrank even more. When I ordered my steak (which had already risen in price), it came with two potato's split in half. which is INSANE to call it a 'side'. Our bill was almost $200 for three dishes and two glasses of wine because for a table of two, there was an automatic 20% gratuity added as well. We were still starving afterwards and the price did not justify the meal we had at ALL. read more

Gorgeous wine bar with great food! -- Atmosphere -- The parking is a little tough during the weekdays / traffic hours but you can find meter parking by Shakeys and walk a block. You need to walk through a black gate that's generally closed to enter the venue. Trust me, the inside is beautiful. This place is great for 2-4 people, there are small round tables for smaller groups but there's also a lounge area for larger groups. They have wine fridges in the back with a friendly Sommelier, she was super helpful and attentive when I was picking out the wine. -- The Wine -- They have a great selection of wine bottles and wine by the glass that range in different types (Sparkling, Orange, etc). Their wines range between $16-$18 by the glass, you can also get a bottle of wine to open (though there's corkage fee, this is standard). I ordered their sparkling on the menu and it was delicious, super refreshing and super unique, it was a natural wine. Everyone else at my table was pretty happy with their selections as well. -- The Food -- The menu there is made for shared / family style. We ordered: - 3 Appetizers to start, they were all very delicious but the memorable ones were the Crudo with Cherries (it wasn't fishy at all, the sweetness & crunch toppings really made this special) Burrata with Tomatoes (the burrata was fluffy and a completely different texture than what I'm used to, and it was absolutely amazing. It was lightly sweetened with honey & balsamic, and the tomatoes they used were to die for). - For the greens, we ordered the Zucchini and while it was delicious, I wished we also had ordered the Little Gem Salad. If you're a veggie eater, I would recommend ordering more here - For the main, we got a single dish of the mushroom pasta. It definitely was not filling for 4 people and we should've gotten at least another 1-2 mains. Overall, it was a great experience, food was great but you'd need to order a lot to really get full. Wine selection is amazing. read more

A candlelit dinner, a wine lounge and hummus served with grapes, are all found here. It was one of the best date nights I have had in a while. A beautiful secluded restaurant that features patio seating and a wonderful wine selection. I ordered the Brown Butter Hummus (this dish would be considered vegetarian for some) but I really wanted to try something different! So happy I did, the flavors had me melting in my seat, so so good! I've never experienced grapes with hummus before and now I can't think of a better combination. My main course was the Pomodoro Pasta, it was a chef's special since their other vegan option wasn't available at the time. The sauce itself was incredible, I'm a sauce girl so extra points for that lol. The whole dinner experience was truly lovely, hoping to visit again. read more

Cute place. The sommelier was lovely and chose a great bottle for us. No notes. The food is just so so. Especially for the prices. My date had the steak and I could tell it was hard to cut and chewy. He liked his potato side. I had the shrimp, which were tasty, but I'm not a huge fan of head-on presentation and by the time you cut off the heads and the tails, you only get a few bites of food. So not my favorite, but that's personal preference. I had a side of the broccolini and really enjoyed it, though it was overdressed for my date. The bread is top-notch. I would definitely go back to sip on wine and eat bread.:). read more

loooove! I've been wanting to try this place for awhile now. careful though you might miss it because it's a bit discrete. but when you get in there, babyyy it's adorable! sooo cute and intimate with an indoor and outdoor patio vibe and a lot of little nooks for private dining. the food was delightful. they know their pastas. we tried the Roasted Zucchini, Pickled Cucumber, Breadcrumbs, Salsa Verde; bread and butter, cacio e pepe and Rigatoni Pomodoro. we were there pretty early like the very first customers (it's first come first served) but our server was still super efficient, offered suggestions and gave us time to decide. everything was divine. will definitely come back! read more

Wowoweewaa I would consider our stop here as second dinner. We were in the Fashion District before the sunset to try wings at a new spot. We figured we would count that as appetizer. We ended up here after making a last minute detour after plan a fell through. My friend had this in her list of places to try and it happened to be the closest to where we were and where we were headed (home). So, a win. Fortunately for us, there was street parking. Score! I love when that works out. We got there looking a little lost. I blame the smokes that went down. I have a feeling the hostess found it amusing to see us struggle to open the door. Trust us, we were giggling the second we realized we just had to push. Short story long, this place is adorable. You would never guess the inside had the vibe it did. We started off with the bread & butter that let me tell you was just perfect. The crunch level was wow. We moved on to the prawns that had a hint of some type of herb that we didn't care for. We ended with the spaghetti limone which at first tasted too al dente, but after waiting a bit longer the succeeding bites got better and better. Overall, everything tasted great. So much so that all the plates were fully empty. We opted to hit up KTowm for dessert so I have something to look forward to for next time. The service was impeccable. I wish I got his name, but the guy with the braids who waited on us was amazing. At one point he scooped up some paper on the table like a ninja we kept trying to figure out exactly what he got. He always made sure we had water without us even asking. If anyone cares, this is exactly where you see people. KStew was a couple tables aways from us with her gf. 5 mins after she walked out, RPatz walked in with Suki. It was so L.A. I loved every second. read more

And I believe they do. read more

My friend and I had heard about Lolo through an Instagram post, and we were intrigued by the cozy, intimate vibe and the rave food reviews. So we decided to have a friend date night one weekday evening. Lolo doesn't take reservations, so sometimes you may have to wait in the bar/lounge area until a table is ready. We were fortunate enough to arrive when a 2-person table was available at that time. We were instantly taken by the romantic, European vibes with the small tables, dark dimly lit room with checkered floors and gold accents. We ordered a couple glasses of wine, and their bread with honey butter to start. We had heard so much about the honey butter, and it was certainly worth the hype! It was absolutely delectable. Then we got the little gem salad and cacio e pepe before finishing the meal off with the chocolate tart and chocolate chip cookies. Overall the portion sizes looked small but were actually a decent size -- we could finish it all feeling satisfied. The food was delicious and well cooked. If there's anything you MUST get, it's the chocolate chip cookies. They are a fan favorite, and we also loved them. The wine selection was unique as well! The staff were very friendly but service was a little bit slow throughout our evening, but we were in any particular rush so we didn't mind too much. Overall, I highly recommend Lolo! The vibes and food lived up to our expectations for sure. read more

Had a reservation at 8:30 on a Friday night and was seated by 8:50. The service and ambience was great but for the price the food and portions were nothing to write home about. I had a lovely evening but would probably not visit again given the plethora of nice restaurants in LA. -Orange wine: good -Chilled red wine: good, very light if you're into that -Burrata and peaches: if I'm paying $18 I want an entire burrata ball. The peaches were great, the toast it came with was questionably too charred/black. -little gem Caesar: this was our favorite thing we ordered. Very solid Caesar with dressing dispersed evenly -cacio e pepe: very yummy -cavateli: also yummy, I like the cacio e Pepe more read more

A little gem in the heart of Hollywood. Came here upon high recommendation from a friend and was not disappointed. First off they don't really do reservations, unless it's for a larger party, so you may find yourself having a few glasses of wine at the bar while you wait. But hey, there are some pretty tasty wines waiting for you there, including some orange which is always nice to see. The plates aren't huge but was enough for sharing, so we ordered up a few things between us and over the course of a bottle and change, had a grand time. The steak was excellent, and came paired with some potatoes. The branzino was so beautifully simple and well prepared that it really was a treat. Had some rigatoni with vodka sauce and even some broccolini to make our mother's proud. Every dish was great and we were all stuffed and sloshed by the time we stood up to leave. The layout is cool in that there is a sort of waiting room in the front that has a bar. Otherwise, all the main tables are in the center of the restaurant in a covered, yet outdoor space. There's also a wine shop in the back as well, which I believe offers tastings, but we were tasting plenty at the table and so I'll save that journey for another time. To sum it up, don't go here. Not because it's not incredible, or that the vibe isn't perfect for a date or night out with friends, but simply so that I won't have to wait an hour next time I go. read more

Service is and ambiance are great but the food is below mediocre and overpriced. You get tiny portions and it's over salted. The shared plates are not for really sharing for more than 2 people. We got the gem salad ($20) which had too much salt in the dressing or on top, I couldn't tell. Then the wax beans ($17) which were so hard to chew. I would have sent them back but there was so little on the plate when we tried them half were gone. Then we had the shrimp scampi ($25) which was recommended and honestly, so uninteresting and lacking anything to make it stand out. We finished with the branzino ($41) which didn't have anything on it, no lemon or anything but, you guessed it, too much salt. The cook on the food was good but the creativity and flavors were dull. Everything started tasting the same. Probably from the salt. Both our stomachs hurt so much after too. The bill came out to be $135 and they automatically include a 20% gratuity. This may be a good spot just for drinks but I wouldn't recommend eating there. Don't waste your money. I didn't even take one photo. read more

Wow what a lovely experience we had at Lolo the other night! On Saturday, I was such a good girl! I was super patient when my boyfriend was on the phone doing boring adult things all day. When he finally got out of his office, he promised we would do something fun. For the 4th week in a row, I suggested we go to Lolo for dinner and this time, he finally said yes! We arrived here around 6PM on Saturday evening and were able to be seated right away. Although the inside was beautiful with its sexy dark interior (I love a black and white tile moment), we opted to sit outside to enjoy the final bits of summer. We had such a lovely time sitting amongst the foliage and the other happy patrons enjoying their evening. To be honest, I already knew what I wanted. I have been following Lolo on IG and had it bookmarked for weeks. The food looked spectacular and I couldn't wait to try it all. For drinks, we opted for a bottle of the "orange" option. I can't remember the name, but it was perfect for a nice summer evening. For food, we started with the bread and honey butter. WoW! so tasty! It was charred pieces of bread with olive oil drizzled onto it. Then they added a beautiful dollop of honeyed butter on the side. So delicious and a perfect start to the meal. We then had the grilled prawns in a delicious green sauce, also so good. The prawns were cooked perfectly and added a bit of the residual green sauce to our final piece of bread - divine! The Cacio e Pepe was delicious as well. As promised from the menu, it had tons of cheese and tons of pepper. My eyes may have rolled in the back of my head once or twice while enjoying this. Absolutely amazing. For our proteins, we opted for the steak and the whole branzino. The steak was delicious and had a yummy chimichurri sauce, but let me tell you about this BRANZINO! Crispy. Delicious. Lemony. Stunning. The best fish I have had in a long time. We finished off dinner with the brown butter cookies and some of the vermouth. OH My Word. Is honestly the only thing I can say. They were so yummy and was the perfect finishing touch on our already phenomenal meal. My boyfriend is now trying to hunt down the vermouth for the bar at home. I love when a plan comes together and this plan was executed beautifully by the staff at lolo. We loved our experience! The best part is that Mom is coming to town next week and this would be the perfect place to bring her for the next round. read more

Lolo was a night of hits and misses - we don't regret going, but we'd likely skip food next time. For a wine bar, we were surprised that the only two red options by the glass were essentially the same, one was just a bit lighter bodied than the other. They have a wider selection of bottles in the shop attached to the restaurant, which felt kind of weird because you'd have to leave your table, check out at the shop, and then go back to order food and eat. The attached bar was sooo lovely looking, and there seemed to be a much wider selection of wine options there. If we were to return, it would definitely be for the bar. For food, we got the bread and honey butter, the seasonal pea salad, the rigatoni, the grilled branzino, and the chocolate tart. Bread and honey butter: 5/5, loved the butter and it melted perfectly on the bread. Salad: 2/5, this was their worst item. It sounded lovely and refreshing, but the stems they used for the shoots were too tough for eating and the horseradish was poorly mixed, so some bites were super strong and most were too flavorless. Rigatoni: 3/5, on flavor alone it was really minimal but the pasta was cooked perfectly and the sauce was divine. It was a super small portion size though and could have used a tiny bit more pork. I expected much more food. Branzino: 5/5, wouldn't change a thing about it. A unique dish, melt in your mouth flaky skin, and thankfully a good portion size so we wouldn't leave hungry. Chocolate tart: 5/5 omg this tart was divine!! The olive oil drizzle on top sealed the deal Some other minor pain points were the chairs were terribly uncomfortable, no padding and made my butt sore after a few minutes of eating. Also it took about 20 mins between our starters and the rigatoni which is a decent wait. Lastly, parking situation before 7 is AWFUL because there is no street parking on weekdays between 4-7. However there was never a wait for tables like other reviewers have experienced so not sure why it was busier other days. read more

Visited Lolo and was really pleased with my experience! We came with no reservation on a Saturday so there was a bit of a wait, but we're led to the bar area that was super cozy with lots of chairs and sofas. No cocktails but a variety of different wines. We were sat in the outside area and it was super cute. We ordered around 5 dishes for 3 people and I would say it was a good amount. The bread we ordered was so yummy and thick. My favorite was definitely the mushroom pasta dish. Portions are small so sharing is best! A great date spot!! read more

My friends and I were really excited to try this place out but we regretted our choice after. The ambiance is cute and a nice vibe for a night out. But the service was really bad. The hostess was rude for no reason. While we were mid conversation he approached us and asked "are you guys done yet." I was still picking on my food so my friends told him he could take theirs. We were asked multiple times if we were done so we felt that we were being rushed out. Which I could totally understand if they were busy but there was only like two or three other tables. The food was pretty good, we all enjoyed the steak. But for the price, small portions, bad service, and automatic gratuity definitely not worth it! read more
