Good food and location - Edit
The restaurant has a nice atmosphere and a lot of options. Ordered the stir fry and chili and they were decent but a bit small based on the price.

Disappointing Experience - Edit
We saw the great reviews here and other websites. Students from McGill University were back in town and the place was packed and loud. We ordered the Braised Tofu and Sauteed Vegetables and the Rosa Salad.
Read moreThe tofu dish was advertised as coming with onions, peppers, bok choy and broccoli. Our dish came with a few thin strips of onion and pepper. We did not get any bok choy or broccoli. The dish was served with basmati rice but it was a very small serving for a dish priced at $18. The soy and maple braised tofu, in theory, was marinated with lime, cilantro and ginger but was flavorless and tough. As stir-fry dishes go, this was a complete failure. (I've owned two restaurants that have served asian inspired dishes so I know a little about stir-fry dishes).
The Rosa Salad was slightly better but that is not saying a lot. It was overwhelmed with chickpeas and the dressing was unremarkable. The restaurant hypes their "poiscamole" - an guacamole dish made from peas but it's terrible.
If you're interested in trying Lola Rosa, I would suggest the location at Place-Des-Arts as it has a bigger menu. If you're looking for a place that would allow for a quiet conversation, look for some place else.
Pros: Friendly Staff, Great Mocktail Options
Cons: Menu Execution Lacking, Noisy

Tasty lunch - Edit
We were the for lunch and it was really tasty. We ordered cesar salads and the dressing was incredible! The mojito and the moscow mule were really nice too. They took a little bit to served us the second dish but nothing crazy. Highly recommended.

Yummy - Edit
The cheesesteak and Caesar salad were really good. The chocolate and caramel pie was nice. I would recommend checking this place out for those items. I will say that I only was interested in 2 options on the menu and the menu seems to be on the smaller side to me. I think I’d come back but be hesitant to try something new. Also the service was friendly and fast.

Resto chaleureux - Edit
Le nachos est incroyable, très consistant et plein de saveurs (mention spéciale à la poiscamole et aux chips), mais prenez note qu'une demi portion est suffisante pour un repas individuel : le complet est une montagne! Il faut aussi noter que le chorizo est épicé, ce qui devrait être indiqué au menu. Notez aussi que le menu en ligne n'est pas à jour vs le menu en restaurant.
Read moreDéçus du Lola Cheesesteak, dont la "viande" ne goûtait rien.
Autrement, délicieux moscow mule et tarte au chocolat en dessert (dont la texture et le goût sont wow).
Pros: Nachos, Moscow mule, Tarte au chocolat
Cons: Le seitan du cheesesteak ne goûtait rien😒, Menu en ligne pas à jour, Deux musique différentes, très cacophonique

Nice place, decent food - Edit
I got the braised vegetables with tofu, which was tasty but simple. The menu said this was spicy and it really wasn’t spicy at all. My partner got the curry, which was also good but didn’t blow anyone’s mind in terms of flavor. They had some nice wines, and our server offered to let me try them before deciding, which was great. Check the drawers at your table for fun surprises!

Delicious, good portions, healthy - Edit
I went in hungry and came out very content. Had the bowl with chickpeas and a huge amount of veggies, with tasty dressings. I also had the optional tofu, which was nicely marinated and cooked. Friendly service, nice ambiance, handy to McGill. I will go back! #Veganuary

Nice cozy evening dinner - Edit
I’ve been to another Lola Rose before but this one was the first time. The seats can be a downer, as our first seats were, really close to people and with not a lot of space to seat comfortably but we told the waiter and he told us we had 1h and a half to eat in our new spot, which was reserved later on. But it was fine! And the food was really good.
Read moreI took the nachos and braised tofu on the side. I didn’t eat everything and ate the rest of the tofu the day after at lunch, and it was really excellent with some rice. The nachos were good as well but I took them at the other Lola Rose and I feel I had a better experience, they were better in my memory. Something was lacking but I don’t know what! Maybe more vegan sour cream and less vegetables? I don’t know! The people I was with took the curry and the burrito, as well as some dessert and they were very happy with what they got!
Pros: Great braised cold tofu
Cons: Nachos were less good than at the other Lola Rosa, You can have a good or a bad seat

Cosy And Creative - Edit
This was my first time visiting Lola Rosa and I ended up going twice during my visit to Montreal. The food was exceptional. The Nachos were by far the best vegan nachos, I have ever had and the staff was really welcoming and friendly. Do not be fooled by its size, Lola Rosa has a lot to offer and is the perfect location for a cosy dinner after a long day, or an ideal spot for a Friday date night.

Cozy Restaurant - Edit
This food spot is very cozy and the waiters are very nice. The food was very delicious and fresh. I had the "Cheese steak" sandwich which was very good and filling. However, even though the menu and the waiter said it will be spicy, I couldn't taste the spice at all. I would have loved to taste the jalapenos more. Nevertheless, I would definitely recommend trying a meal at Lola Rosa! :)
