From Chicago and visited Lolita with our niece and other family members. First off you sit about an inch from each other, and within a foot or two of other tables. The cured meat platter was just about average, nothing special. I also had the stuffed hot pepper appetizer Now, I love spicy food, but this was ridiculous. The pepper... more

My experience with Lolita was overall positive. I made a reservation for my girlfriend's birthday. They sat us right next the window, probably one of the best seats in the house. We started off by ordering the stuffed hot peppers. Let me tell you now that I love spicy food and am rarely not able to finish this type of... more

Located in the very cute Tremont area near dowtown, this restaurant serves up delicious comfort food. The chicken is amazing! The fried brussel sprouts is one of their signature dishes as seen on the Food Network. The brussel sprouts have a unique flavor and are tasty. The roasted potatoes are great too! A definite must if you are in Cleveland. more

Maybe it's because we had small kids in tow, but the staff - tattooed, twenty-somethings - seemed cooly tolerant of our presence. The food was good - nothing unique or earth-shattering. The sliced steak was cooked well, although placing it over raw chick-peas was a head-scratcher. The grilled pork chop was tasty but a bit tough. The brick-oven Margherita pizza... more

Food - I went to Lolita with a large group, we ordered many different things. The overall impression is the food is better than average, and there are big hits and big misses. The drink menu is good, we shared wine. The crowd favorite appetizer is the stuffed pepper, it had excellent flavor but is incredibly spicy. Other good options:... more
