This place was really hopping for a Monday evening. This is Iron Chef Michael Symon's signature location, and it is popular and we found well earned. Wife had beet salad and the beef cheek pierogi for her dinner. The pierogi were rich, and nicely flavored with a light touch of horseradish. I had the Smoked Hampshire bone-in pork chop. It was very generous, more like prime rib cuts than pork chop, and wow, it was good. It was placed atop a mildly cheesy polenta that complimented it perfectly. It was right up there amongst the best pork chops ever, along with Emeril's (Orlando) and Perry's Steakhouse (Houston). We were really impressed with Lola's preparation and flavors, and the experience was worth the premium pricing. As far as parking, it's impossible on the limited street parking in the congested area, so just valet for $8 after restaurant validation.
