dinner was very good. We shared the wedge salad and I had the steak frites and my friend had the filet with a side of broccolini. Great ambiance and the chairs at the smaller tables for two were quite comfortable. Overall a delicious dinner and I would return!

This restaurant was the best food I have ever eaten, and according to my son, it was the best restaurant ever. He said the fillet mingon was amazing, and buttery. I loved everything that we ordered, and my family agreed. Shoutout to our server, Eric, who was the nicest and most polite server in the world. He even asked the manager to give him permission to show us the different types of wagyu, which was amazing. Best restaurant ever!

From host to server we had the most amazing experience. Food was yummy. We ordered the Octopus in beans. It was perfect taste to the palette. Then came our pork chop with chimichurri sauce. Cooked perfectly!! The side of Cauliflower wasn’t your ordinary side dish, it’s so delicious and flavorful with a bit of sweet yet savory. For dessert we went for the churros. 2 chocolate dipping sauce was included. Our server was attentive and the host came by to check on us as well. This is my 5th time eating at Lolinda. Will be going back again!!
