| - I've been to Lo-Lo's a few times and I've had good service each time. I have heard horror stories though. Thankfully, I don't have any of my own. That being said, let's discuss the food and service.
Each time, each waiter/waitress has been attentive, kind and sometimes friendly. I have yet to have the same waiter/waitress though I have seen them all each visit. I have been ONE time when it was busy and I learned then, never again. Not because service was bad, but because I was hungry and their seating procedures seemed to be unorganized at the time.
Food! I enjoyed my food at Lo-Lo's. My favorite are the fried green tomatoes. This last visit, I went against my norm and ordered Uncle Brotha's Shrimp and Grits. I'll make this short. I won't order it again. The grits weren't seasoned and the tails were still on the shrimp. I requested them to be taken off but the kitchen decided against my request. WHY OH WHY keep the tails on is a MYSTERY to me. Yet so many restaurants do it. Dumb kitchen policy!! DUMB!
When my food came, I had to wait until it cooled a little so I could remove the tails. UGH! So bothersome to go through all that work and then have under-seasoned food. I was upset! I sprinkled black pepper on the plate, cut the shrimp and then remixed everything. I'm guessing the grits aren't seasoned because the shrimp is heavily seasoned and the cheese brings a level of salt on its own. Once I created a new dish in front of my own eyes, I ate every bite. That bowl was almost dish-washing clean when I was done. It wasn't that the new version of my meal was delicious. It was that I was almost in starvation mode. After creating a new mix, the dish itself was decent.
I will return to Lo-Lo's as it's been added to my "must-eat-here" list in Vegas. I just won't order Uncle Brotha's Shrimp and Grits again.
