If you speak to anybody that lives in Cleveland and you ask them for a restaurant recommendation, one of the first places to come out of their mouths will probably be Lola. How can I turn that down?
I perused the menu online before I went just to make sure it wasn't all steak. I was pleasantly surprised that there was spicy yellowtail sashimi on the appetizer menu. Unfortunately, when I went to order it, it wasn't on the menu that evening. But they did have a variation, so I ordered it and gobbled it up. It was a bit more Hawaiian than I'd like, but nevertheless it agreed with my tummy.
For my main course I had the pasta: fettuccine, winter greens, butternut squash and sweet potato. I was stuffed half way through and if my body would've let me, I would have kept on eating until I exploded. I'm not even a pasta fan but it wasn't traditional and my my was it delicious.
My only recommendation would be to go on a night that isn't that busy and definitely steer clear when there's a Cavs game--you'll never get out of the parking lot.
