| - I've lived within a 5 minute walk from Lola's for quite some time, but only just tried the brunch.
The servers were all quite friendly and the ambiance is quite relaxing. The interior of the building is very nice, and the patio in front is enjoyable on a sunny summer day.
Unfortunately, these aren't the reasons we go out for brunch. My partner and I each ordered the Eggs Benny. Not only did we not enjoy the meal, but we left feeling quite sick from it.
The sweet potatoes were the worst I've ever had . They were slightly undercooked, soaked in oil, and had no seasoning on them. The garlic aioli and chipotle dips ($1 extra, apparently) were oddly both bland as well and only seemed to make the dish worse.
The eggs were cooked perfectly, the peameal was crunchy, the bread not toasted enough, and the hollandaise too tangy and full of chives.
I'd give this place another chance for drinks, but that's all. Up until now, I've never actually had a hard time finishing a $20 brunch before.
