The Verdict: The discounted $6 cocktails on the menu included "the Paristyle" with raspberry vodka, chambord and pineapple juice; "the Denim" with pomegranate vodka, pomegranate liqueur and pomegranate juice; and "the Muir" with peach vodka, peach Schnapps and peach nectar. We tried the latter, and while it certainly delivered on the fruity flavor, it was a bit too sweet for our tastes.
Named as "Best Place for Cocktails" in RFT's Best of St. Louis in 2010, you can't go wrong if a glass of sugary drink is your thing -- Lola's cocktails come practically candy-coated in vibrant shades.
All in all, eating and imbibing at Lola proved a pleasant-enough experience with friendly and attentive service, but the average prices might not necessarily beckon us back during happy hour. After getting a peek at the sunny larger dining room in the back of the restaurant, where a drummer could be seen setting up his kit for a show that evening, we're more likely to try Lola again during brunch or dinner.
The Rating: On a scale of one to five...
