We came here because we read about the doughnuts - and they were amazing - but there was so much more! It's not on the menu, but you can ask for their house-cured lox as an eggs benedict. Amazing!

Fresh donuts! (They make them right there !) Tom's favorite ( or Tod's) is amazing combo of green peas, octopus (!), potatoes, eggs. You must try it! This was the most unexpected menu. Nailed it!

I see so much about breakfast, but their dinner menu is incredible! The most tender Octopus, delicious squid skewers, fresh vegetables and unique Greek spreads. Nice cocktail selection too!

wonderful fare, meticulously prepared, with a fun selection of local wines and brews but holy shit, the service is lethargic. they're friendly but brunch took 2.5+ hours. is that a seattle thing?

Make a reservation with Open Table...we had to wait a little bit on a Sunday morning, and the two of us were there early!

These made-to-order pillowy doughnuts with a vanilla mascarpone cheese and jam were heaven in my mouth. (and I don't have a sweet tooth)
Eunha KimSeptember 27, 2013
Must try: Kebabs (squid, chicken, lamb, pork, portabella, salmon, etc) on the menu, huckleberry gin, cauliflower/anchovy spread, lamb ravioli, marinated beets, chilled prossor eggplant salad..

Started w/ a sage mountain (cazadores, hibiscus water, st germain, and orange bitters w/ a sage leaf), then chicken kebabs w/ salad and smashed potatoes (super yummy), and finally made-to-order donuts

Mediterranean omlette with spicy feta is yumm. Substitute kale with aragula, tastes much better. Also pancakes with homemade jams are recommended.

Get the half order of eggs benny and half order of pancakes. Just enough savory and just enough sweet...the most perfect brunch I've ever had. Worth getting a rez, even if you don't think you'll need.
Amy MatsunoApril 19, 2014
I'm a tough brunch critic. Brunches are always good, but similar. Lola's is notches above...I'm brave enough to say this is the best eggs benedict around. That goes for the golden pancake too. Superb.
Eden EssJuly 21, 2017
What wasn't good? There were a couple places closer to the hotel but I'm so glad we ended up here! They were super accommodating for gluten free. The sausage and house made jam are excellent.
Andy StollMay 4, 2014
Order the Lolo Breakfast + 1/2 order of donuts. (And save some of the donut dips for desert). Great for (a really hungry) one, and a perfect breakfast with an optimized mix of flavors!
Norman EllisAugust 5, 2015
This breakfast was the truth! From the breakfast meats to the housemade donuts to the frothy cappuccino to the sinfully delish hollandaise on the Eggs Benedict to the mouth watering pancakes...
Yas AbJune 23, 2016
I had the donuts with the heavenly vanilla bean mascarpone, and my husband had the golden brown pancakes. Both really delicious. Good atmosphere.
Jon B.September 3, 2017
Half order of bennies, side of sausage, and an order of donuts. Memorize, and repeat every time you are here. Excellent brunch.
Zach CarlileNovember 18, 2018
split the eggs benny and grab some donuts for the perfect amount of food. So so good.

Really one of the best food spots in Seattle and probably the best of Tom Douglas. We had entrees and desserts here and everything is so perfect. Tastes are pretty close to Mediterranean and Greek.
Allie CaudleMarch 6, 2019
Lola has THE BEST eggs benedict in all the land and I stand by that firmly. Pair it with the made to order doughnuts and you will be in for the best breakfast of your life.
Maarten AlbardaDecember 22, 2017
Great place - we ate at the bar, and the bar tender as well as the wait staff were truly nice. Food was excellent. That broccoli! The potatoes! Salmon kebabs!
ECrab 🌐🌎🌐April 18, 2018
Great breakfast here. Super service and coffee to die for. Will be a regular for my visits to downtown Seattle.
Karthik RamanApril 23, 2019
Potentially best Seattle breakfast. Crispy garlicky potatoes, melting donuts, and kopanisti adds a zing to the omelette. No wait at 10 am on Tuesday. Great service.
Daniel MejiaOctober 2, 2017
The lamb meatballs were great. The smashed fried potatoes were also pretty good and so was the chicken on top of of the bulgur
Petteri UusimaaApril 2, 2014
Lunch at Lola was equally great experience to breakfast a while ago. Again delicious cooking from fresh ingredients. Greek-Spanish flavored kebabs with on-site baked pita were great!
Lindsay WilliamsMay 27, 2016
3 of the 6 flat bread spreads are vegan. So is the potato and artichoke salad with capers. Also, they made me a vegan version of the charred broccoli side! 😋🍽
Brian StraussDecember 14, 2017
Open really early. Rare breakfast spot that takes reservations. Super friendly waitstaff. Good coffee. Really like the doughnut holes with mascarpone and jelly.
Diana ArzJuly 3, 2018
Wonderful breakfast! Omelet with the salad instead of potatoes. Make sure to try the donuts, the best ever!!! 🍩🤗😋
Alicia KosasihJanuary 4, 2013
One of the best Mediterranean restaurant I ever been. Get the Mezze sampler and DOUGHNUTS! It'll blow your mind. Everything was simply tasty without having to put much effort on appreciating the food!
Tana BabcockNovember 6, 2015
Came here for brunch/lunch and ended up with the squid kabobs - omg amazing! Also you can do a little bit of Greek salad AND the potatoes if you want.
Filip MaresMarch 17, 2015
Tom's favorite was superb. Octopus, tatters, spicy yogurt. All topped with a poached egg.
Thomas ColtonNovember 25, 2015
Eggs Benny and a Bloody Mary will get you ready for a full day in the city. Tom's Breakfast for the more adventurous. You'll be rewarded for the risk.
Phuong NguyenMay 15, 2018
I look at the menu but I always go with the Eggs Benedict with Salmon. The potatoes really hit the spot. Don't leave without trying their fresh donuts!
Global HighlanderJuly 30, 2017
This brunch hotspot has a very tasty eggs benedict dish, flavorful but typical golden brown pancakes, and simply okay service despite the forced 20% charge.
FrecklesUSAMarch 9, 2017
I recommend the Tom's specialty and the donuts (mini beignets), with a side of the house smoked salmon.
Lauren TurnerOctober 8, 2018
Great atmosphere! There is a 20% service charge automatically added to your bill. I had the pancakes, perfect texture and the sausage was so savory and tasty.
BommySeptember 4, 2014
Make reservations for breakfast/brunch. Order doughnuts and eggs benedict. Smashed garlic fried potatoes are amazing.
cYeNzSeptember 5, 2013
Pork sausage was amazing; pancakes were light, fluffy and tasty with syrup and clotted cream; garlic smashed fried potatoes were delightful. Lola succeeds at the little details.

I came here couple of times for breakfast and dinner. The donut is awesome - you can order it even it is not in the dinner menu. Tom's big breakfast is unique. .
Mike HaggertyJuly 10, 2013
Lola Breakfast and Crimini Scramble for our table. And of course, we had to have the doughnuts. All excellent choices!
Mary SJune 8, 2016
Go to brunch. Don't miss the goat cheese omelette or the eggs Benedict. Great portions as well
David RaskinoJanuary 23, 2014
One of the best bloody marys I've ever had. Also, must try the sampler dips. Swap out the anchovy dip for an extra fig dip (unless anchovy is your thing)
Eric VealNovember 26, 2018
Chicken kabobs surprisingly good and juicy. Ox tail OK but not too special. Pepper and tzatziki spreads quite good. Service a bit slow at dinnertime on a Sunday.
Deb HaticMarch 29, 2013
Half order of Eggs Benedict? Sign me up. The Hollandaise sauce is perfect. Second day, came back for home made granola and fresh fruit! Can't beat this breakfast!
Allie CaudleAugust 17, 2018
A unique mix of Northwest and Mediterranean cuisines. Weekend brunch is the crown jewel, be sure to ditch the Mimosa for the Lola Mary!
Ozlem AydinJanuary 27, 2020
We have been there for breakfast on a Sunday morning without reservation. Omelettes are delicious but their special doughnut is awesome.
christine morrisonAugust 15, 2013
Tom's big breakfast may be among the best I've ever had. The octopus is sort of grilled and in a bed of fresh corn and other veggies with an egg on top. Amazing.
Kuo-yu LiangSeptember 30, 2017
Terrific food each time I'm here. Tom Douglas restaurants are usually solid if unexceptional, but I like Lola as they take more chances.
SEGAJanuary 5, 2012
Had dinner here after working PAX, and everything was yummy. You simply MUST try the donuts. Don't plan on sharing unless you don't want to be friends when you're done. - Kellie, Community Manager
Edomia zaide BereheMarch 27, 2018
Amazing menu, even the late night menu is full of options. Wonderful setting, beautiful ambiance. Good for friends and dates
Kathy FiskeSeptember 22, 2011
Excellent' three appetizer size plates. The lamb and salmon kabobs were top notch. The triple cocoanut cream pie (not on the menu) made the night. Marcus was on target with every suggestion.
