    We had a great evening at Lobos. The service was excellent and the food delicious. We would have liked to have stayed bit longer but our table was needed - understandable as it was a busy evening before Christmas . We'll definitely be back!

    Delicious food and fantastic service as always. Disappointed to see that the aubergine is off the menu as this was my favourite vegetarian option! We ordered pretty much everything on the menu and it was all excellent. Great choice of wine too! Thank you to the staff for looking after us so well, especially as we weren't the only large group present.

    I was looking for a midweek after work spot to catch up with a friend. Lola’s didn’t disappoint! We got a selection of classic tapas dishes (chorizo, prawns, ham croquettes, etc) and a bottle of wine. Everything was delicious and was super reasonably priced too. A table next to us shared a paella which looked delicious — I’d try this on my next visit! Highly recommend.
