Ahhhh where to begin!
I must say Lola maybe my most favorite restaurant in northeast Ohio.
Every time I've dined here its been an absolute pleasure and I leave very happy!
On this occasion my husband and I celebrated our one yr. anniversary so we decided to splurge a little on a bottle of wine. We shared a bottle of Orin Swift Papillon (avable at Heinens) it's amazing, my new favorite!
We had beef cheek pierogis and bone marrow for appetizers. The pierogis are ridiculous, served with a mushroom brown sauce and a little horseradish crème fraiche YUMMMM. The bone marrow I would not order again. It was very good BUT it was super heavy, oily and greasy. They basically took the marrow out of the bone and then fried it. It was served with bacon jam, pickled red onion, crème fraiche, salt and cilantro, it was very good don't get me wrong it was just TOO MUCH! I prefer standard bone marrow, spread it on bread like butter.
For our mains I had the Lobster Thermidor and my mate had the Smoked Pork Chops!
You guys... Seriously... It was amazing!!!! The lobster was cooked to perfection and wasn't as heavy (in a sauce) as expected. It was fabulous! My husbands was also very very good, it was so tender and the polenta was so warm and buttery.
For dessert our server gave us complimentary mini cupcakes and a piece of chocolate.
We had such a beautiful time, our service was great no guilt in this dinner!!!!
