Lola

Lola is incredible. From the food to the vibe to the service. The flavors are amazing. The beef sandwich, beets and tomato tartare are phenomenal. I appreciate that lola has a decent variety of vegetarian options. The crispy artichokes are delicious! Also, the menu has a decent offering of non-alcoholic beverages, which as a teetotaler I appreciate. The chocolate torte is amazing, but I absolutely loved the espresso lemon creme brulee -so deliciously complex! The service was wonderful. And the vibe - enjoying a fall evening dining outside in a cozy neighborhood restaurant is un-beatable.

Well, this place is just GORGEOUS. As soon as I walked in, I fell in love with the beauty and then proceeded to fall in love with the food. Our server was excellent - answered all of our questions, provided his recommendations for food and drinks, and was on point with his rounds. We ordered a LOT of food for our party of six and it was just so much fun. Thankfully my team understands my need (and love) of taking photos of food, so I got some really good ones :) The tapas are a decent size for the price and everything is delicious. I thoroughly enjoyed my cocktail - naturally I had to order a second one. I think that we all had our favorite dishes but overall, there was nothing we didn't like. I will say that the cobbler dessert was a little disappointing considering how phenomenal the description was, but otherwise we had no complaints. Lola - I will be back and I cannot wait for round 2!

I have been in search for a good tapas restaurant in Nashville and Lola is just that! Everything we ordered was delicious - we got the crispy artichokes, arugula salad, croquetas, foccacia, chicken skewers and papas bravas. All of the dishes were cooked perfectly and seasoned well. The restaurant has a nice ambiance and the service was friendly and attentive. We will be back!

I had a great experience at this restaurant. I was with a group of 6 people and got to try a variety of tapas, including beets, leeks, octopus, artichokes, croquetas, and papas bravas. Everything was really tasty and well seasoned! The portions were surprisingly large enough for everyone to get a few bites. We also tried the chocolate torta which was not as sweet as I expected. While I am not a huge fan of tapas, because it always seems like there is not enough food, I do think the portions are worth it and it was fun to try so many different dishes that were all very delicious!

I come back to Nashville a few times a year. Sylvan Park is one of my favorite neighborhoods and this may be my new spot. Staff is highly knowledgeable and prompt. Menu is cohesive and inventive at every turn. Show up with a group of 4 or more and try as much as you can. Beautiful space for a casual dinner with family or even a more intimate date night once the sun goes down. Highly recommend if you appreciate creative dining without pretension.

Went for lunch today. I totally appreciate the ability to drive to a restaurant and park where there is plenty of parking and not have to worry about driving around in circles looking for a parking place. Our server was great not overwhelming, but attentive. Ordered the arugula salad with walnuts. Someone ordered the artichokes as an appetizer, and those were out of this world. My salad was tasty but I should have added a protein - They were out of three of the five desserts, but the chocolate dessert was definitely good. I love the atmosphere of the restaurant with the high ceilings and all the light. it would be fun to go at dinner time and try it out as it is a totally different menu.

This was a real treat! Delicious tapas, great service and atmosphere. We sat outside on the patio, even though it was a very hot evening we were comfortable and didn't feel hot. It's pricey and not a lot of food but what you are served is outstanding. My favorite was the sardine tapas, it's excellent! The mediterranean salad was good but not outstanding. Our server was exceptional! I will definitely be back!

I visited Lola for social hour tonight, and it was an excellent experience from start to finish. I was greeted warmly and immediately and opted to sit at the bar. Kieran was our bartender and was super friendly and attentive. There were so many wonderful options that I was indecisive, and his recommendations were phenomenal. I started with a margarita, and my date started with an old fashioned. Both were great. For our entrees, we did shrimp ceviche, croquetas, manchego plate, and papa bravas. All were absolutely delicious. The shrimp ceviche was so light and refreshing and was my favorite of the four tapas we tried. It has been a long week, and I found the atmosphere at lola to be very calming. It's a beautiful restaurant. Parking isn't great, but I feel like that's to be expected in Sylvan Park. After driving around for a few minutes, we were fortunate to find street parking super close by.

Lola is one of the best restaurants in Nashville -- by far the best tapas! The service is impeccable and the ambiance of the restaurant is elevated and makes for a perfect night out with friends or a nice date. I recommend the pork belly and definitely try any Verdejo on the menu!

A great neighborhood find, with a simple, classy, light interior. Parking is limited, reservations are suggested, seating is limited and the bar is small. We ordered a selection of small plates, one at a time, and the kitchen was timely, even when the restaurant filled up. The food is excellent. While there is a full bar and wine list, both have limited selections.
