Lola's Bistro - Wichita East

Amazing everything. The food is incredible. Almost everything I’ve had there I love. Drinks are fantastic as well. The staff…that’s the best part of this place. The staff are the sweetest kindest folks you’ll ever meet. Everyone from the hosts to the servers to the head chef go above and beyond to make you feel like family.

The food was mostly good. Not good enough that we'd ever come back though or even recommend it friends. The atmosphere was weird, but mostly because the staff was overly snobby...not the staff, just the young man at the host station. He was probably just young and awkward, but it sure came across as snobby. Anyway, try it if you want, but don't waste your money on the chocolate cake. It was absolute junk. The rest of the food was decent enough.

Pro: Though situated in an anonymous looking mall, Lola's is alright! The food was quite delicious and our waiter, Christian, was very affable, efficient attentive, even though he seemed to have a lot of tables. Prices for the quality of the meal were more than fair: a comparable meal in our own city would have been much more expensive. Con: no one on staff was masked and no patrons other than us were either. This was during the height of the Covid Omicron outbreak. Thus we felt really uncomfortable upon our initial entrance, a little like martians, but eventually our aforementioned waiter (and a couple of drinks) took the edge off. I def got the sense that Kansas didn't have the strongest masking culture, which is a shame.

Worst work environment Iv have ever experienced in 23 years of working in kitchens. The owner (I will not refer to him as a chef) was completely rude and disrespectful to new employees

Love Lola’s! The food and service is extraordinary. We dined at Lola’s on Valentine’s Day. The special menu was unique and everything delicious. Michael and his staff did everything perfectly. Despite this being one of the big date nights, out of respect and care for their customers and staff, they limited reservations and appropriately spaced tables. We were very comfortable and Christian treated us to an always fabulous evening!
