Address: Rue Lebeau 75, Brussels B-1000
Elegant brasserie in the Sablon district has a long-standing reputation for turning out consistently good plates of Franco-Belgian classics. A terrace out front can get very crowded on warmer summer evenings, and on weekends when shoppers get worn out from browsing the local antiques stores.

Minimalist white decor creates a stylish atmosphere while offering up nothing to distract the eye from the chef's elegant creations, which might include steak tartare, or lamb with artichokes and tarragon. Lola attracts a regular clientele who like to eat at the long bar counter on one side of the restaurant to exchange the latest news and gossip.
