I am not sure how \"authentic\" the n'awlins fare is (and I've been to NOLA) but the ambiance is nice, the waitstaff is pleasant, and the food is great.\n\nI had the gouda grits and the roast beef po'boy. When I was in New Orleans in the late 80's, the po'boy seemed to be a gimmick offering that was all about just making a huge, almost un-finish-able sandwich piled so high with meat that you could not even get your jaws around.\n\nAt Lola's, the sandwich is more about making an amazing tasting sandwich vs just a huge sandwich. It is covered in a heavy gravy and stuffed with high quality ingredients. It was extremely tasty and I finished the whole thing (unlike po buys I had in NO). The gouda grits were great, nothing like the typical bland grits (sorry, southerners) you get most places. The cheese really makes this dish pop.\n\nSince I was travelling for work, I was only one person and they sat me in a little 2-seat table by the 'bar', which was perfect for me.\n\nI saw Lola at the door, greeting and saying goodby to customers, which was nice. I saw one lady with a midwestern accent telling her \"I saw you on TV\" and she was very nice and accomodating to all of the guests.\n\nI would definitely come back. In fact, I debated coming back for a 2nd trip during my week+ in Vegas, which is a rule I almost never break (I try to sample a new place every night and not go back to any place I've already tried). I want to try something with shrimp next time..."^^ . . "5"^^ .
