| - I absolutely enjoyed my night at Lola's Kitchen. It was first Friday's so I knew there was going to be a blues jazz band playing during dinner. The band definitely sets the ambiance for a nice moonlit dinner on the restaurant's outdoor patio. It was quite warm, but a nice cold beer definitely fixed that factor. The blues jazz band was amazing, and was a super plus to the environment, and the fabulous food.
For appetizers, the love and I had craw puppies and a dozen charbroiled oysters. The craw puppeies is an awesome creation and is so good! Crispy on the outside, and yummy on the inside. Perfect sauce to go with it too. The charbroiled oysters are really good too. Just the right amount of flavor, and the right amount of cooking. I will definitely order both the next time I come which is first Friday of October! :)
For entrees, my boyfriend had the Shrimp Jambalaya, and I had the famous Catfish and Grits. OH-EM-GEE! The super kind waitress told us that this was Lola's signature dish and my oh my she was NOT kidding. I love fish, but this fish was so flavorful, and the bed of grits it lay on was perfect! The sauce...amazing! There were mushrooms and sausage that lay in the sauce too....perfect combination. All together, it was an amazing dish! If you come here, the Catfish and Grits is a definite must try. My boyfriend's Shrimp Jambalaya was just as flavorful. He enjoyed it as much as I enjoyed my dish.
For dessert, we had the banana foster. To admit, the presentation wasn't all that great, but it tasted wonderful. I love bananas, so it was a defitnite cherry on top to my awesome dinner.
We are definitely coming back again! Great date night if eating on the patio, great place to get cozy with friends, or just come for really good food in a good vibe type atmosphere! 2 thumbs up Lola!!!! Love it!
