We tried Lola’s on New Year’s Day because our regular place was closed. I thought the crust tasted fresh and delicious! Less greasy than our regular place as well. Just watch the pizza sizes because they are different than what we are used to. Overall delicious!

WOW!!! I am so glad that I listened to all my neighbors and gave this place a try!!! After recently moving to the area I was extremely disgusted in the«pizza» that Mugs and Garibaldi offered and was scared to try anything else. I have had the privilege of ordering from them several times trying something new every time and it was all exceptionally delicious! First, their pizza, I defiantly can taste the freshness in the ingredients and that it is all homemade. They also have build your own salads, but my guilty pleasure is their Carol’s cheddar bacon fries(kudos for such a fun name). You have not lived until you had their garlic knots, I swear I can eat just those for a dinner alone! I have also dinned in a few times and have to comment on the how CLEAN the restaurant is and polite the staff is. I have also meet the owners who treat everyone as if you are family walking into their own kitchen at home, so personable and always fun to chat with. Thank you Lolas for your excellent food and stopping me from driving to Chicago just for pizza!!!

Never again, the pizza was not good and I was really disappointed. I didn’t care for the cheese or the sauce, I can’t even describe the flavor, but the cheese tasted like imitation cheese. I hadn’t eaten pizza in a while, I read some of the reviews and decided to try this place. WHYY! Total disappointment. The Garlic knots had too much garlic, I bit into a glob of butter and garlic and got sick. I usually say I will try anything twice, but I won’t try the pizza again, maybe something else. GOODTHINGS: The delivery driver was professional.

Wow… Lola’s seriously good pizza. Up to this point, didn’t like any pizza delivery places in Arlington Hgts. Measley, cheap toppings. Lola’s has nice buttery crust that doesn’t taste like carboard or look it. Ordered a square pan pizza,(Love the square!), pepperoni, onion, green peppers. Deeee lish us! I would like to see some Cake for dessert. Like a good layer Carrot cake. The man who took my order, Super nice.

Just was in the area earlier today and stopped in at Lolas. It was awesome as always! Today I got the Lolas cheese fries and a chicken chopped salad. It was my first time trying these fries and they were amazing. They are their house cut fries but with real cheese melted on top with some bacon. So good!!! And the salad was so fresh it tasted delicious. This place is awesome and I highly recommend going there! Keep it up Lolas!

This is a tough review to write. I have been there twice and ordered pizza both times. Both visits were in January. The first time the pizza was excellent. It has lots of cheese, a crispy crust and just the right amount of sauce. The second time it was pretty bad. The sauce tasted like it was from jar(Ragu), skimpy cheese and a pretty bad crust. I may give it one more try. maybe it was a off night. The people are nice.

My family and I just enjoyed a medium BEER crust pizza. Amazing the cheese was golden brown and the sauce is one of the best I have ever tried. It actually has seasoning, being Sicilian seasoning is very important no one seasons sauce around here. Nice deep red too, and very tasty. The bottom was golden brown and slightly crispy, but not hard. My children had two of there kids meals. Nice size burger about the size of mcd’s and a nice portion of fries for 4.99. It’s a great deal and their pizza is not cheap but it is not overpriced either. Can’t wait to come back with my parents!

Have been back a few times since my original review and I will say the food is definitely better than the first visit. I highly recommend the Italian Beef. I would give a 5th star but there is still a little bit of a time issue. I know the food is cooked to order but when you get only ½ hour to eat you can’t enjoy it as much.

I ordered food from lolas i ordered cheeseburger well done and i received red meat inside! Fries instead of being crispy are soggy and the mushrooms are coated in something thick and uneatable! Do not go to lolas nasty food! I ordered food for $ 27 and i had to thow it all in to the garbage i was so disgusted i didnt even want to eat it anymore i want full refund!!! Guy from lolas called me 2 times after seeing this review hes telling me its not their burger because its not their bun. People be aware they harass you for bad reviews crazy people this place should be closed down i will notify health dept.

Pretty solid pizza, and in a great location right across from Hersey High School! Good thin crust, very good sausage, good cheese, sauce is average but not bad. Overall, a great product. One thing that I really like is the atmosphere. While this place is undeniably«fast-foody,» there is a full dining area with plenty of tables. The counter staff bring your food out to you when it’s ready, and clear the tables when you’re done. Think the Culver’s of pizzerias in terms of service. It’s a really nice touch, given how sit-down pizzerias seem to be a dying breed. While it is fast food, the nicer atmosphere makes it somewhere you could take family, coworkers, friends out for a casual lunch or dinner. Their hot dogs are also good(Vienna Beef, natural casing last I ordered one) as are their fries, but I mainly come for the pizza now. This restaurant has quickly become a weekend tradition in my family, and I’m very glad to have them around. I hope as they continue to grow and establish themselves that they continue to improve customer service(sometimes staff seems confused about what to do when a customer comes up to the counter) and also find a way to serve more reliable-quality pizza-by-the-slice(it’s been a little too hit-or-miss with regards to when you get a fresh, warm-enough slice). To me, these are the only pressing flaws with an otherwise great establishment. By the way, they serve beer now too, including some on tap. Very nice touch. Thank you Lola’s! We’ve been needing a place like yours.

Ordered from them two days in a row… it’s that good. They’re on GrubHub, so ordering and delivery is easy. The small, thin crust pizza is very good. The ingredients are fresh and plentiful. The pizza sauce was flavorful and fresh tasting. I also tried their sausage and beef combo sandwich. Again, the ingredients were fresh and the sandwich was nicely assembled on a nice roll that had a great texture. All in all, a solid choice for pizza and sandwiches. I recommend!

Back in September AF called several pizza places to get quotes on a party we were hosting in November. She explained to each that we were having approximately 60 people and needed pizza and salad. Lola’s gave the best price, and we have a saved voicemail message from Maxine, who said specifically that the price included 8 family style pizzas which are 18 inches each, two catering salads, plastic silverware, plates, napkins and delivery charge. We were happy to find a good price and be able to use a local, family-owned business. Several days before the party AF called the pizza place to discuss updated numbers(the number of guests went down slightly), exact timing, toppings, etc. AF asked for vegetarian, mushroom, etc. which Maxine explained were more expensive, so AF said that was fine and she would take the more basic pizza selections(such as cheese, pepperoni, etc.) instead. The big issue started when Maxine stated that the salads included were only family salads that feed 4 – 5 people each(8 – 10 total). AF was confused and inquired further and was eventually told a new price in order to feed salad to all guests that was about 50% higher! She re-listened to the old voicemail she saved, confirming that the quote received in September was for two catering salads, not family salads. AF called back the next day to ask about the difference between family salads and catering salads, and was told again that for the original price they were only going to include two family salads, and how much more the catering salads would be that would feed all the guests. AF said she had a recorded voicemail message from Maxine herself that stated the price included two catering salads. Maxine then gave a long and confusing explanation stating that Lola’s has changed their catering menu, the catering salad definition changed, and what was called a catering salad then is now only a family salad. What they now call a catering salad feeds more and is more expensive. Despite AF being frustrated at the bait and switch Maxine would not budge. A day or two later RT called since AF had had enough. RT told Maxine we would not be going through with an order for 50% more than quoted and was very frustrated and upset with the situation. Without warning Maxine’s husband Bruce was on the line with a very negative tone. To be fair, RT did not have a positive tone either, but as a customer expected something more understanding and apologetic from a small business owner. Bruce said that they would never offer a price like the original one for that many people, and said mockingly to think about how little that would come to per person, $x.xx, and that they couldn’t eat that cost. RT mentioned they had a voicemail and Bruce said he wanted to hear it. RT played the voicemail message for Bruce that clearly stated the original price and all of the details(including the catering salads, quantity and size of pizzas, etc). Bruce paused and tried to say the original price was for children only, they thought this was a party only for kids. This made no sense and RT corrected him that this was never the case. He then went on to say the price quoted was only for cheese pizzas, not speciality pizzas. I said again that this was not for speciality pizzas, we only wanted cheese and basic toppings at most, but that AF was told by Maxine that the price difference was concerning the salad sizes. Bruce said he did not know about that, and continued a rude tone even though he was proved wrong by the voicemail message that in fact they did offer a price of $x.xx per person which earlier he said neither he nor any pizza place would do. By this point RT did not trust Bruce considering his tone and that he and his wife had offered three contrasting explanations on why they were not honoring their original quote. Bruce said he wanted to still do business with us but RT said he was unhappy with the customer service and would instead go with another business. Bruce said he learned a lesson that he needed to provide formal quotes in writing in the future. RT also mentioned that he felt the need to post reviews about this experience to let family, friends and community members know. Bruce became irate at this and asked, «Are you threatening me?» In the end RT said they would not do business with them due to the changing price, false explanations about the price, and poor customer service so he did not trust they would fulfill the order properly at any price. He wished Lola’s good luck and RT and AF chose a pizza place who honored their original quote from September with no problems that was for less than the extra 50% that Lola’s wanted to charge for some unknown, changing reason. We are having to spend more money and time than planned and are very sorry we became involved with Lola’s Pizza Palace. We strongly recommend for people to not be customers of this establishment, and especially do not consider using them to cater any type of event.

Overall, just really good food. REAL Chicago style hot dogs, great burgers with grilled onions,…I’ve never been disappointed. The fun thing is you can get candy for dessert, delivered with you food! Candy bars, M&Ms, a nice touch! I’ll order again.

Very good pizza! Would definitely order from here again. Very friendly manager. They did not charge full price for ½ of the pizza having an extra topping. Lola’s is in the Prospect Crossings shopping center, on Thomas off Rand Road. It’s behind Target, and across the street from Hersey High School. It’s near Jimmy John’s and Allstate. MapQuest & iPhone map have you going ½ mile further north on Rand.(Probably because the store is in a shopping mall behind the Target store on Rand.) Would be nice if on line maps had actual knowledge of strip mall addresses.

This pizza was the best deep dish pizza I have ever had. I had the pepperoni and a salad.

OMG! This was one of the best beef sausage combo’s I have ever had, three of us had variations of beef and sausage with peppers, guess what? They do not charge extra for peppers. And the Carols cheese bacon fries were out of this world. Please stop here, you will not be disappointed. Next time we stop, pizza will be on the list to try. Ps. 2 local restaurants cannot compete with their beef sandwich, one guys is getting smaller, while Lola’s was the largest serving of all 3 restaurants.

Trying Lola’s fir the first time based off the Unilocal reviews. Just received my delivery order of cheddar bacon fries and a beer crust pepperoni pizza, and I am in heaven! To start the experience out, called for delivery, was informed there was no delivery driver until 5pm. I figured that I was going to order from someplace else, instead the team at Lola’s comes up with a solution and my food is on the way! Cheddar bacon cheese fries were fantastic, great creamy cheese salty crisp bacon, the only thing that would have made it better is if I were eating it after a night of drinking as opposed to at work. Only tried a slice of the pizza as the cheese fries filled me up, but I would recommend the beer crust over the regular thin crust if you are doing a 12″ pizza, the crust itself has great flavor. Keep up the good work Lola’s team!

The pizza is really quite good, but their delivery makes things a bit difficult. We waited an hour for two pies, but I guess ordering dinner at 7 gets you a long wait. I’d suggest doing pickup, saves a couple dollars and you know when your pizza will arrive.
