What a gluten free find. The waitress/cook/?owner knows gluten free and we had a delicious meal. I had their homemade smoked turkey lentil soup. My boyfriend had their smoked Tri-tip with grilled veggies and finished with bananas foster. So delicious that I ate to much. Love the unique funky atmosphere of 60โ€™s albums on the wall. I would love to attend when they have live music but alas we are only here for a couple of days. However will return tomorrow for some of the other gluten free items on their menu like borscht.

The food here was fantastic but what really makes the experience is the staff, who were friendly, accommodating and absolutely delightful. As a coeliac vegetarian, they were very accommodating and were prepared to alter the dish I wanted to make it both! This shows they cook everything fresh and the chefs know their stuff. Would definitely recommend, just a bit on the pricey side ($30-50 for a main)

I hosted a birthday lunch for 25 friends on April 30th and Lalla's couldn't have been more perfect. The staff was incredible both in advance planning and on the day. I was so appreciative of Lalla's for helping my friend with Celiac feel comfortable with her dietary needs. The space and views are lovely. Thanks!

Delicious, simple restaurant! The food is reasonably priced for the quality & quantity. They have vegan and vegetarian options. If you're carb conscious or don't want gluten they have a lettuce wrap option. The onion rings are perfect, the batter stays on and doesn't fall apart.
