Recently tried Lola on a year long tour of Toronto sushi restaurants, here' s my review:
Ambiance:
Warm and charming atmosphere in a long, narrow space. It's also decorated with a touch of shabby chic that is uncommon in sushi restaurants but suits the area and floor plan well.
Service: Good, no complaints.
Price: You really can't be beat-- this is probably the most bang for my buck I've EVER got at a decent sushi restaurant. Definitely THE choice if you're looking for a filling meal.
Food: As far as budget sushi goes, this is good, and VERY filling-- I especially enjoyed the spicy rolls. Is it excellent? No. Does it have any 'wow' factor? No... but it tastes right and is decently made, and you can enjoy complimentary tea and miso soup, which is always nice.
In sum: I enjoyed Lola as a sushi option and can definitely see myself bringing friends to introduce them to sushi in a warm, charming restaurant. Otherwise, it's also a great restaurant to keep in your back pocket if you're looking to satisfy a sushi craving without breaking the bank.
