Lola is a great spot for a weekend brunch, especially during the summer months where you can truly enjoy their great patio with a view overlooking downtown. Great contemporary mexican infused variations on traditional brunch.

I went here for brunch… and although the atmosphere is awesome, the food just doesn’t make me want to sing the restaurant theme song…But the city view? Yes please! Ask for the patio!
Lola has a very interesting menu serving cuisine inspired by Mexico’s coastal regions. The tableside guacamole is ab-fab! The coin style margaritas can really sneak up fast! Beware!
Weekend brunch 10-2 Saturday and Sunday on the patio is a perfect way to lounge away a good part of the day!
Large covered patio along the front, great mojitos. Live music on Sundays.
This yuppie will pick you up on his scooter, by foot, or in his shiny Audi, but it will be in time for Yappy hour. Bring your designer shades, and pretend like you aren’t hip, and you will fit in.
Brunch, lunch or dinner is always delicious at Lola. I particularly love going for brunch or lunch on a nice day and ordering a bowl of the delicious soups…tortilla or corn. Tortilla is my favorite and is just right for a light lunch on the patio.
With one of the best patios in town and a loyal clientelle, be prepared to wait in line for Lola’s famous brunch. A latin inspired menu features favorites like breakfast tacos, lobster enchiladas and my favorite…the veggie torta, a mexican style frittata. At 2 pm, live music gets the party started and the micheladas (Mexican beer over ice with fresh squeezed lime juice) pouring. Go on Sundays at noon and stay for an afternoon of fun. Be sure to get quacamole that is prepared at your table.

“Lola has oodles of pizzazz, in terms of both its art and airy design – complete with a killer patio with an indoor/outdoor bar and great city views – and the savory dishes on its menu. Start off with some guacamole, prepared fresh tableside, before moving on to a bowl of caldo, a succulent seafood stew, or grouper crusted with Brazil nuts.” – Frommer’s

Not your traditional Mexican restaurant, but definite Latin influences and Mexico City inspiration go into each and every dish. The table side guacamole is a must, as well as the coin margaritas and Mexican brunch. A little pricier than what you’d expect, but definitely creative and the execution and preparation are worth the price. Be sure to ask for salsa as it doesn’t come standard with your chips.
