    The wedge with salmon was terrific and the pork chop that my guest ordered was cooked beautifully. The Brussels with the two dressings was very tasty and will be ordered again. But our server was extremely nice and menu knowledgeable. We will return because of him and the manager who let us move to another warmer table.

    We’ve visited Lala’s several times over the past few years and this has been our best experience of all our visits. The food is always delicious and last night’s was no different. The service last night was timely. Most of all, we loved our booth and its location in the restaurant.

    We had reservations. The hostess appeared overwhelmed with the place being full. One couple came in and was told full. While we were still waiting another couple was told they could sit at the bar. Stevie our server saved the day and our disappointment went away. She seated us outside which is what we requested. Nobody else was on it. So much for full? We totally enjoyed talking with Stevie and food was amazing

    Our server was great, food was very good. The ikitchen was out of Salmon, which was disappointing but did not affect the evening. Thanks for a great date night!
