LaLa’s

I walk in, and the Christmas decorations are still up(it's late January). A waitress comes over and takes a gold platter away from each of our seats, not sure why that was there. After about 20 minutes they ask if we want appetizers, we order the calamari, one of my favorite foods. The calamari its self was actually pretty solid, best part of the night, along with the optional aioli, however the strange sauce they coated it in was not very good, it was an odd tang flavor that did not go well with the calamari. There aren't many good options to order off of on the menu, so I pick a ceaser salad. The salad comes out about 20 minuites later, in a bowl that looks as if it is staring me in the face, it is angled oddly. The salad itself was lacking in flavor, the dressing was a small amount, but did not taste like a traditional caeser dressing, everything else about the salad tasted bland. Including the chicken which tasted awfuly moist, and tasted as good as shake n bake chicken. Overall very dissapointing.-Taco from the Hungry Hungry Hippos 1/10

I would have given them 4 stars for the ambiance and the food, which was great. However, our wait time was extremely long. Even with our reservation it was an hour. I would like to give a shout out to the server (wish I got her name) who apologized for the long wait, offered a discount on our meal and comped dessert. That was excellent customer service, as we never complained about the wait. I would try visiting again though.

Great portions! Decent service but dated ambiance. Carrot cake could be improved upon: WAY too big and not enough cream cheese frosting. 8/10

Lala's is a unique experience. I'll call it a hidden gem, of sorts. We decided to give it a try and made a dinner reservation for my husbands birthday. The exterior of the building is beautiful, however the inside leaves me slightly perplexed. The decor is... strange. Imagine a mix of a high end steak house, Cracker Barrel, and your grandmas house. Again, strange. I was feeling a little "uh oh" upon initial impression but WOW-- was our service and dinner absolutely amazing. We started with calamari steak and a small charcuterie board. Nice portion sizes and both delicious. My husband had the salmon and I had the grilled romaine salad with filet added. Hands down, one of the best salads I've ever had. Since we were celebrating, our server treated us to a crème brûlée desert which was also incredible. We've been recommending LaLas to our family and friends and can't wait to come back!

We were looking for a romantic dinner on a Friday night in UCLA ( Upper Canton Lower Akron ). LaLa's delivered on all fronts. Piano music playing in bar, linen tablecloths, soft lighting and a menu that encouraged a dining experience. My wife enjoyed the pork chop while I had the lamb chops. We enjoyed our mains but the Brussel sprouts stole the show. They were charred with bacon and a Thai chili. Absolutely try the Brussel sprouts. We took home some chocolate cake which was rich and delicious. Service was attentive and friendly adding to our wonderful evening. If you are looking for a place for quiet conversation, enjoying a meal in an upscale and beautiful setting then make your way to LaLas

If I could give them 6 stars I would. We decided to go to one of their dinner and wine tasting special events. We are very glad we did! Meal included charcuterie with Prosecco, fois gras with a South African white wine, grouper with peach salsa and a Chardonnay, pesto cheese mezzalina in a mushroom truffle sauce with Pinot Noir, beef cheeks Ragu with potatoes confit and a delectable Cabernet sav and a flourless, but none the less yummy chocolate cake with a Syrah. On top of the wonderful food, the service was outstanding. The owner, manager, and staff were very personable, friendly, and on top of everything. Additionally, the chef and wine expert came out before every course to fully explain everything and were quite knowledgeable and professional. We will definitely be back for dinner during regular service.

LaLa's does such an amazing job at creating an experience! When we come here, we feel like we are royalty. The decor is beautiful. I can stare around and get lost at all the work put in! Definitely a place to feel treated! The staff has always been super nice and professional! They always decorate for holidays. The food is delicious too. It's more high end dishes, but they are delicious and beautiful plated! Cocktails are great, they have martinis! Overall, I recommend LaLa's to anyone! Great place for a getaway!

I never post reviews. In fact this may be my first one on yelp. My husband and I went here for our wedding anniversary. The food, service and atmosphere did not disappoint and in fact Lalas was exceptional. We had the goat cheese balls as an appetizer. Wow. Such flavor. Our dinners were delicious and the apple caramel cheesecake will be in my dreams for days to come. Our server was kind with impeccable timing on all our food. There was a piano player there which made the night even more special. Highly highly recommend this restaurant!!! We can't wait to go back!!

First time going, and this service was exceptional. Our server was Preston, and he was delightful. Pork chops with Brussels sprouts and truffle mash potatoes and pesto zoodles were phenomenal. The scenery was decorated so cute and festive. Definitely will be going back!

We have a wonderful evening at LaLa's!!! It was our first time & it was a delightful place to celebrate a 78th birthday! Great food & service & they made the evening soooo special
