Since its creation, Lola Rosa is non-vegetarians' favorite vegetarian restaurant. We want to prove that eating without meat is possible and delicious. We offer appetizing dishes inspired from our mothers and grand-mothers. A ragout, a curry, chilli, tomato tart and lasagna are some items found on the menu. We serve you, in a homely manner, the best Nachos in town! All in a warm decor. Try one of our local beers to pair with those Nachos. And if that's not enough to inspire you, or if you are looking for ideas for your next philosophy class, all you need to do is open our table drawers.
Lola Rosa comes across as a warm, welcoming vegan spot where everything is homemade and portions are generous, with a cozy vibe that many reviews describe as perfect for a casual dinner or a weekend brunch. The menu offers a wide range of crowd pleasers, from nachos and lasagne to curries, braised tofu, hemp burger and cheesesteak, with desserts like a hot brownie served with coconut ice cream, and the drawers of notes at each table are a playful and well-loved detail. Service is repeatedly praised as friendly and attentive, though a few visits note occasional delays or inattentiveness during peak times. The food is widely celebrated for being flavorful, fresh, and reasonably priced, and the place is frequently recommended even to non vegans who want a tasty, satisfying meal. Some comments mention limited salad variety or certain dishes needing more sauce or balance, and a small number of desserts or cocktails miss the mark, but the overall consensus is that Lola Rosa delivers a delicious, comforting vegan experience worth returning to.
Had a great dinner at Lola Rosa! This is our go-to spot for a delicious & healthy vegan meal. We got the tartare, nachos, curry & brownie (the curry is my favourite!). Our server Louise was super friendly, attentive & all-around fantastic! Thank you so much! Will be back again soon! :)

The food is good. I liked the Chilli Platter. It had good balance of spices & tanginess. We also ordered a Toast Cajun but that was okay. They tried resembling it to the taste of actual meat & being a vegetarian, i didn't like it Atal. Maybe will be back someday for Nachos & Burge
EVERY ORDER (chilli, curry, braised tofu, cheesesteak, hemp burger,…) was a hit! The NACHOS are a must!!🔥We also had so much fun reading the letters people left in the drawers. & a HUGE shout out to Agathe for managing orders from our big group while being super warm, attentive, & empathetic:)
What a great vegan restaurant! We dined here on our first night in Montreal. The staff was very friendly & all of the food was delicious. The atmosphere was quaint & enhanced by all of the'secret messages' in the drawers of all the tables (hand written notes from patrons of the past). I truly loved the nachos & chili. My wife had a great asparagus special & we shared a tasty eggplant appetizer. Nice way to start our weekend in Montreal. Thank you!
We loved this place. Fresh, delicious food & lovely staff & atmosphere. Nachos were so good & so was the lemon tart. Be sure to check inside the drawers of your table!
I had the vegan nachos which were tasty. Meadow was such a cool, friendly waitress & the vibe inside was relaxed. I love the surprise that comes with your table & pulled the most spot on note for me & my bestie. Will definitely return!
Cozy plant-based mexican restaurant. Fairly small menu, would be great if they had a few taco options as well for lighter food. I got the nachos which were really tasty & super filling & the burrito which was pretty flavourless so I don't recommend that. The place could have been a bit cleaner in my opinion.
i didn't know vegetarian food could be good until i tried lola rosa. i came here often as a mcgill student when i lived in the neighborhood & my favourites were the spinach lasagna & the nachos. the little drawers at each table made each visit memorable. my friends & i loved to read the notes & add our own to the collection.

I've been coming here for the last 4 years & everytime the food & service has been spectacular. The nachos are so unique & full of flavor, I would recommend everyone to try it. The Milton branch of Lola Rosa is definitely better in terms of food & service than the Place des Arts one, speaking from experience of visiting both on several occasions. Vegan food at its best
Petit restaurant chaleureux avec excellent service. Voici les photos de nos plats que nous avons tous aimés! L'entrée de nachos était parfaite pour trois personnes. Je vais retourner à cette succursale, car le service est excellent. Merci pour cette belle soirée!
We went to the Place des Arts location & it is reservation only. We called the Milton location & they got us a table right away. The service was amazing with Rory, the food to die for & overall an awesome atmosphere! My sister was visiting from L.A & fell in love. Said she will be back just for Lola Rosa. I used to go to the Parc location but Milton is the bomb... Will be back soon because I kept craving the nachos since Saturday 🤤 🍠🍪🍔 We had the nachos, the Hemp burger, the cheesesteak & the brownie. 🍹 For drinks, we had the mango sunrise. Just Waouh... Everything was excellent! The portions were huge.. I don't know how I squized the brownie in but I did & it was 100% worth it. Even if you're not vegan, go try it... It's amaze-ball... I promise 👌
Comida vegetariana sensacional. Experimentamos em 2018 porque meu filho estava vegetariano e adoramos a montanha de nachos e a salada ceaser. Voltamos 4 anos depois e a comida estava maravilhosa. O prato de tofu estava incrível. O preço é justo, o serviço é ótimo. Detalhe: abra as gavetas das mesas e leia os bilhetinhos... pode escrever um também.
Street parking. Heart of McGill ghetto so lots of young minds. Friendly staff. All vegan menu. The much raved nachos deserved the hype. The vegan cashew cheese was decadent. Generous portions with lots of legumes so there wasn't room to finish my main meal even though it was delicious. Alcoholic & non alcoholic drinks available.
