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.
Everything was great BUT the noise level/accoustics make it challenging for conversation. Hope to see this improvement to an excellent experience otherwise.
Lola Rosa in Montreal is a fantastic spot for vegan dining! The staff are incredibly helpful, taking the time to explain each dish & make recommendations. The Gyro sandwich is an absolute must-try-flavorful & satisfying. The chili is excellent, hearty, & packed with taste. The queso burrito is another winner, bursting with deliciousness. Don't miss out on the lemon pie; it's a perfect balance of sweet & tart. Overall, Lola Rosa offers a delightful vegan experience that leaves you wanting more!
During my last day in Montreal, I researched the best vegetarian-friendly restaurants in Montreal, & Lola Rosa appeared. I'm so glad I decided to make the trip (it's located in a beautiful, quaint neighborhood). I received the best service from the lovely server, Meadow, & the owner, Eric, who gave the most vibrant explanation of the menu. The Caesar salad & cheesesteak were to die for. I was happily full but still had a delicious mango basil sorbet. I absolutely loved my time in Montreal, but Lola Rosa was the icing on the cake! I recommend this plant-based diets & meat waters alike!
I've come to Lola Rosa many times & have always enjoyed it, often recommending it to others. However, my most recent experience left a bad taste in my mouth-& not because of the food, but because of the service. Our first server was lovely, but the server who handled our checks behaved in a way that I found very inappropriate. My friend skipped the tip option on the machine, & the server snatched the machine out of her hand, canceled the transaction, & stated that tipping was mandatory! As a bartender/server myself, I agree that you should always tip your waitstaff, & I always do, even for just a coffee. I understand how frustrating it can be not to receive a tip, but the reality is that tipping is optional. If that's something you can't handle, you shouldn't be a server. & if your restaurant wants to mandate tipping, that's fine, but you should remove the "no tip" option from the debit machine & inform your customers of your tipping policy as soon as you seat them. Personally, I will not be coming back to this location.

Amazing spot to dine if you are a vegetarian or vegan! Stopped by early in the afternoon & received a warm & hospitable welcome! We had the steak & cheese sandwich & the burrito & they were absolutely outstanding! Prices were very reasonable which is hard to find these days!
Excellente adresse ,délicieuse cuisine végétalienne, accueil très chaleureux Notre dernier restaurant avant notre retour en France.nous resterons sur une note très positive un régal pour nos papilles 😍
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!
Excellente adresse pour les végétarien. Le choix est large & délicieux. Le service est au top. Les prix sont plus que correct par rapport à la qualité & la quantité fournit. Je recommande fortement.
Niveau de bruit extrêmement élevé pour une si petite salle à manger. Il faudrait y remédier. La solution : installer des panneaux acoustiques dans votre salle à manger.
