A friend and I purchased tickets to the Allegheny West Christmas House Tours in December of 2016, this past year. One of the brunch stops they suggested, was Lola Bistro. I am so glad we decided to go before our tour, what a wonderful addition to our day. Lola Bistro is a lovely intimate small bistro with 30 seats at the most. Michael and Yelena, served an excellent brunch menu for those taking the tour. The brunch was excellent ! Lola Bistro is truly a hidden gem on the North Side. We will definitely return next year for the tour as well as a special trip for dinner. Many have suggested the seven layer Russian Cake, I am so looking forward to trying. I would suggest making reservations. It is a limited menu, but so well worth it. I also like the fact that it is also a BYOB, that is becoming my favorite way to dine. I don't travel to the North Side often, but I will definitely make a trip just for dinner at Lola Bistro.
