It was amazing and I can't believe I missed out on it for so long. A really fun, innovative menu. Foods are combined in a way I would never have imagined, but the flavors complement each other beautifully. Also, excellent service (unpretentious) and modern but comfortable decor. I look forward to visiting again when I'm back in town.\n\nCleveland has a multitude of restaurants that blend in but an inventive chef makes Lola stand out."^^ . . "2009-03-01T00:00:00"^^ .
