Subject: Chez Lola's On Myrtle Now Opened

Just wanted to let everyone know that Chez Lola is now opened on Myrtle.

I wrote a quick review with lots of pictures.

    Your review was great, Jay. Food looks tasty - any comparisions from people who've eaten at Chex Oskar?

    This review was great. Definitely want to check it out, any other forum posters been there yet? How would you rate it against Chez Oskar?

    I've never been to Chez Oscar, but me and three friends went to Lola and absolutely loved it. Good food & prices, great atmosphere.

    They don't have their liquor license yet but I'm not complaining - it's cheaper to bring your own anyway. There's a liquor store a few blocks away too.

    Please tell me you're not serious with that "freedom fries" stuff!

    Definitely want to try Lola though, especially if their prices are a bit more reasonable than Oskar. I've only eaten at Oskar once and that was the reason why.

    Chez Lola is impressive in the beauty of the space but I think vegetarians might be warned. A lot of the main dishes are meat: veal, pork, beef, etc. and there does not seem to be much choice for veggies. However, I must say that the clams with coconut / curry is so great those of you who eat fish and not meat should definitely give it a shot. I'd like to see a few more veggie friendly options definitely.

    this is a very good point that I forgot to mention. one of my friends is vegetarian and his options were limited. he did get the "guitarra pasta" and liked it a lot.

    I was kidding on the freedom fries. I like to try (try being the key word here) and inject some humor into my post to keep it fun and lively. (like the 'nabe)

    I think vegetarians overall, depending on how vegetarian you on (vegans - forget about it), will have a fairly tough time in most places. I think Chez Lola's can accomadate requests to make things more vegetarian friendly.

    I also recently tried Chez Oskar and thought the food was good. The vibe's very different as Oskar's seems more...french and not as casual.

    I like Lola's better but that's just a personal preference.

    Still pretty good but wasn't really that busy for a Friday night. What's everyone think of the place?

    I have never seen this place open. What kind of hours does it keep?

    Cool, thanks. I see now it's only open for dinner at the moment. Guess I keep walking by during the day!
