Chef Angel Miranda opened Lola’s on June 19, 1994, and named it for his mother. Before that he ran Altamira, a Spanish restaurant he opened for the 1984 World’s Fair.
Garlic, saffron and paprika, not heat. You can taste how much Spanish cooking gave to Creole food. Today the Miranda family still runs the room, and the staff greet you with “¡Salud!”
