We thought this place would be mediocre and so-so, but learned that was NOT so. The burger was done to order and it was juicy and tasty. Every bite was full of flavor and the lettuce was crisp and the bun moist and fresh. The fries were a bit salty though. The chicken sandwich was cooked to perfection! It was not too spicy, but it was served hot. We truly enjoyed every single food that we ordered and we plan to visit them again soon. This place is worth the stop. Please give them a try if you like freshly prepared fast food that is served with a smile. The service was amazingly fast. You have to order your food and pay for it at the cashier) then it will be brought to you. The restaurant is clean and very neat.

Both were creative sandwiches that tasted really good, with toasty bread and tofu and beef that were just the right texture! The tofu was smooth and not crumbly. It’s blackened and definitely quite spicy. The short rib was braised or stewed, making it tender and flavorful. I appreciated the unique options of peanut noodles or salad as a complimentary side, and the peanut noodles and black bean and corn salad were both great. We’ve went here while visiting the Hudson Valley Rail Trail a couple times and I really recommend it (and the adjacent pizza place) as a lunch spot right off the trail. It’s a pretty small place with some good seats (including a small window-facing table), but it might be hard to find seating during busy times. Overall I was really impressed by the high quality of Lola’s Cafe and their menu of familiar dishes with a creative twist. I highly recommend visiting!
