Review Lola Rouge - Wellington

High Tea is STUNNING! DEVINE food, delightful drink offerings (dietary requirements no issue- most appreciated) Everything served in/on gorgeous crockery etc Beautiful staff Colourful furnishings Room to move Thanks Highly recommend 😋♥️

Fantastic High Tea. Great service, lots of teas and cocktails to choose from. The setting is gorgeous and the food was yum. Expensive but worth it for a treat or special occasion

Loved Lola Rouge. What a cute little venue with the most delicious and fun cocktails🍹 We were a large table and went with a set menu so got to try quite a few different dishes which were all full of flavour and perfectly cooked.

We came across this place while browsing google maps looking for somewhere to go for dinner. The first impression upon entering was, wow! The decor was stunning, and it made me think of what a high-class place would be in the 70s, with purple velour and profound statements of blood-red colour. Greeted by friendly staff upon entry, they made us feel welcomed. We first ordered two Gin and Tonic's, which was a delight as they use East Imperial tonic. Glancing over the menu, first was plant-based dishes followed by Land and Sea. I liked how they offered vegan dishes first. From the plant-based menu, we ordered the Mori-Nu Tofu and the Lucknowi Kebabs. The tofu was ok; a little tasteless probably needed to be soaked in the sauce or be crispy tofu. The kebabs were great, some spicy and some not spicy, which was the perfect amount. From the Land and Sea menu, we ordered the Ika Karaage (deep-sea fried squid). It was some yummy, easily one of the best deep-fried squids I have had. The other main dish was the Tandoori Plate, which came with a selection of three types of meat, chicken, lamb and prawn. All of which was moist and succulent and the accompanying sauces to match and two fluffy naans. This dish was the highlight of the night. The flavours are perfectly balanced, and the textures were a delight. Initially, we thought we didn't order enough, but it was more than enough. We were disappointed that we couldn't order a dessert in the case of being too full. Overall this Lola Rouge is a must-try. The service was good, could be improved a little by taking away empty bottles and plates, so they don't sit too long. That would be my only feedback. This place is on the pricey side for two people, but thats a hotel for you. Without desserts, we spent $128. For us, it was well worth it for a fancy night out. If you are on the fence about this place, go check it out. We got there at 5:15, and it was already starting to pack out; by 6pm, it was fully packed. Bookings are essential.

After seeing Lola Rouge pop up countless of times on my socials, I was convinced to go. We came during Chinese New Year and got the 3 tier platter offered for the week. The food was great and the drinks were even better! Definitely a great place with an alluring atmosphere.

Shared a special dinner for two and couldn’t be happier with the evening. Though we only ordered a main each and a shared plate of the wok fried vegetables we were both absolutely satisfied by the end of our dishes. We both went for curries, lamb for me and prawn for her and both were the perfect level of spice, the prawn perhaps a touch spicier. I evened that out with a delicious cocktail featuring bird eye chili vodka, pineapple and passionfruit. We would have loved to have tried the dessert platter but after such sumptuous mains we just couldn’t fit in another bite. Looking forward to coming back again.

Visited the latest opened restaurant lola rouge at naumi hotels wellington and i must say definately coming back again with my family. Had checked the reviews online and thought to give a try. Great cocktail selection. For food we ordered the kofta, signature tandoori plate, kebabs & prawn curry great flavours. Tandoori plate was the highlight. Awesome flavours from asia. And to finish we had the sharing dessert plate & halva(vegan one) never thought would get a gajar halva recipe plant based. Looks like the chef has done his research🙂

Came here for a outing on my birthday, was my first time here and I was blown away! Immediately greeted by an amazing staff as soon as I entered and I loved the atmosphere! Nice selection of drinks and the set up of the High Tea was beautiful! Everything tasted better than what I was expecting! I was even given a Happy Birthday platter, which made my day 1000x better. Compliments to the chef, I will definitely be returning!

The bar for this restaurant was phenomenal. Best service I've had in NZ. Oscar and the rest of the team were genuinely friendly and made sure I had a wonderful experience. Amazing desert as well. I tried to eat at the restaurant twice but they were fully booked once and said they couldn't do room service the second time. So I ended up at the bar.

Food was great! Meals are very big! We asked at the start if we needed more than 1 (had understood it was ideally a sharing menu) but meals were huge. Definitely only order 1 main per person. Not strong understanding of celiac people (our waitress wasn't atleast) which made it feel quite risky when ordering however felt fine after. Would definitely go back!

What a way to celebrate my 30th Birthday! Every dish is out of this world AND the cocktails?! GIRLFRIEND! You gotta try. Lovely, friendly staff amazing settings. I will definitely go again and highly recommend

Awesome venue and decor, lots of separate areas makes your experience feel more intimate. High tea was perfect.

WOAP entry, Holy Cluck. A generous cut of tender and juicy chicken thigh with halloumi that balanced everything. The thinly sliced, crispy plantain banana with its perfect dipping sauce was very good. The pineapple beer suggestion was a good match. Of course, the staff and service were outstanding, as well as the awesome ambiance. It was hard to resist the Chocolate Crémeaux...delicate and impeccably presented.

I've been here several times for the coktails bar experience and i've always been served by professionnal and caring team. Special thanks to Craig , Quentin, Macarena and Andrea that give to me and my friends a very special care and a nice chat about our travels. I strongly recommand this place

Lola Rouge has left the best impressions! Hospitable hosts, delicious dishes, beautiful presentation, wide beverage list and wonderful dessert. I recommend to everyone! Best things is that the all the staff know what they’re doing and what they’re talking about, and you can tell making the customers happy is their main priority. Can't wait to come back on Christmas Day!

Very enjoyable dinner. Service was efficient, dishes were delivered quickly, and were all very nice. Good fresh, tasty meals.

We popped in mid afternoon for a shopping break and cocktail. Service was quick and friendly. Cocktails were lovely, well made and presented and a snack of Kumara fries were also lovely.

Went here for a birthday celebration. Food was amazing. Service was ok, but it was our servers 2nd day, so service not as slick as other tables had.

Went and had dinner with my family it was so delicious, we ordered more and even though we were getting full we still ordered dessert best decision so amazing, definitely will return for more.
