LALA St.Pete

Coming to rave about this restaurant!!! Specifically about the seacuterie & the LALA midnight martini (the best espresso you’ll have!). I was sooo impressed by the flavors and freshness on the board — the combinations were perfect: crunch, savory, creamy, briney, everything you could want. Adore! The martini was so good I had to get two! I also really loved my server, he was attentive with great recommendations but also gave us time to talk. I never felt rushed, it was a wonderful experience. 9/10 — will be back for karaoke! And I definitely recommend to a friend.

Came in for a date night and were not disappointed! We started with the shrimp cocktail and ratatouille with goat cheese which were both delicious. For entrees, he chose the wild mushroom risotto with steak and I ordered the Mediterranean pasta with chicken; both dishes were flavorful and fresh. The artichokes in the pasta were amazing! We finished with thr flour less chocolate cake and vanilla ice cream that we shared which was perfectly due to the decadence of the cake; creamy and sweet!

This was a great lunch stop. The menu had such great options but had to try the mushroom risotto. It did not disappoint! The service was engaging and the server was super attentive. I enjoyed sitting outside on the back patio. Great experience!

Simply AMAZING Had a private karaoke room for a small bachelorette party. Service was top notch and food is excellent Cliff was fun and very attentive Highly recommended (Give CLIFF a raise🙌🔥)

Lala is an incredibly well ran establishment I’ve been to many restaurants in my time. The bar manager is suspiciously handsome, the staff is unbelievably kind. They feel like out of story book even the customers are super welcoming for the most part. Haley is a great bar tender. Patrick was so respectful he wasn’t even making money from me and asked if I wanted water, there is another male bartender that works on the (Sunday day time) weekends. He’s super sweet and witty I love his personality! He’s also suspiciously well informed about tequila. The live music outside is amazing. I could live here 💛 Clifford was also a gentleman!!

We were able to get in without a reservation. Food was good, but the salad had a little too much dressing, yet good. Pleasant atmosphere nice staff. 5 stars $$

This was a GREAT family time! Our server was very attentive and prompt! The risotto dish was delicious and all of our drinks were great

Loved this location (who transformed my first impression let down from Lala Tampa). Food, service, drinks, aesthetic all were great. Sarah was a nice waitress and the manager (forgot her name) was welcoming and wonderful.

The grilled grouper sandwich was spectacular. Rooftop seating was pleasant during the afternoon. Not a big fan of the karaoke, but to each his own.

We had an absolute blast at Lala. Ethan our server kept our drinks full, bellies happy and even joined in on an epic rap moment. Love this place

I brought my friends to LALA St. Pete for a goodbye dinner, and it was amazing. Our server, Cliff, was awesome—super professional but also hilarious, which made the whole night so much fun. He answered all our questions and recommended the best stuff. We got the duck linguine, grouper sandwich, bruschetta, and chicken wings, and everything was so fresh and delicious. The wine was perfect, and the service was super quick. Honestly, 10/10 experience. Can’t wait to go back! Cliff informed us that Lala offers private karaoke rooms! I can’t wait to have a holiday party in one of the rooms! What a fun place!

Kyra was my server tonight and she was super friendly and service was excellent! Food and drinks were delicious!

JC aka Juan Carlos gave us a great service, great attitude, and great energy. Very patient with our group and knowledgeable about the menu. Service was very fast, food was excellent and place is always a great vibe. Really appreciated you!

Cliff was an amazing server! He was very kind and attentive. The food was amazing too! Highly recommend the black truffle mac and cheese appetizer and eggs Benedict dish.

Visiting from New England and was looking for some good local food. LALA met the criteria and exceeded expectations! Calamari was phenomenal, the sandwich was delicious, and the service - bar none. When you come, ask for Cliff - he's a gentleman and very courteous. Made the experience 10x better! Will be visiting again!

The hostess Darby was amazing! Fun organized and on the ball- love this energy! Patrick our server was great able to navigate us to a fantastic evening of savory treats while we had a blast!! Thank you lalas !!

The lobster bisque and French onion soup are absolute musts…..rich, flavorful, and clearly made with quality ingredients. The lobster bisque had generous chunks of lobster, and the French onion tasted authentic and deeply satisfying. You can tell this place focuses on doing things right. On this visit, I decided to try the ribs. Presentation was a solid 10/10….they looked fantastic. That said, the flavor didn’t quite hit the mark for me. They tasted more baked or steamed than grilled, lacking that smoky, charred finish you’d expect from great ribs. That aside, everything else I’ve tried on the menu has been excellent. Just a heads-up: you might want to skip the ribs and stick to their strengths. I’ll be adding more photos soon!

Eric was our server and he was amazing!!! We ordered wings and he recommended that we get them extra crispy which we did and let me tell you they did not disappoint! I also wanted a lemonade and Eric told me that he wasn’t sure if there was any however when he got back to our table and had a lemonade in hand, Eric went above and beyond and was able to get me some fresh squeezed lemon and let me tell you it was much needed in this FL weather. If anyone is dining in and you’re lucky enough to get Eric you will not be disappointed…

Jesse was amazing!! She was so helpful navigating us with karaoke and recommending what to offer for dinner! Also Kyra was amazing with the karaoke room!!!!!!

Enjoyed lunch here with my mom and while it was loud with the music outside and slightly echoey dining room, we didn’t have to yell across the table to hear each other and it was still pleasant! The food was delicious, we didn’t wait for a table, and the service was on point!

Wow 🤩! I have had the best brunch in the area. I just came from Orlando looking for something different. Celeste, at the bar was more than great. She recommended me the best omelette I have had in my life, the Brie & Ham. Her service outstanding and the atmosphere with the La La St. Pete, Love vs a Song 🎶 amazing. A+ for Brunch!!!

I’ve done karaoke here several times and it’s always a blast! The food is absolutely amazing as well. The truffle mac n cheese is always one of my favorite dishes to get. 10/10 recommend

Terrific brunch food, mimosas in several flavors and Natalie was lovely!

My boyfriend and I were looking for a place to eat that wasn't too expensive but provided a lot of diverse options for food, and LaLa's was perfect! My boyfriend got the roasted chicken and fries, and I got the mushroom risotto and both of our meals were delicious! The live music was also very fun and relaxing for us to enjoy on a cozy cold Saturday night. We sat on the rooftop which was also really scenic and inviting! We will be sure to come back here in the future :) The staff were super friendly and accommodating with our food allergies as well!

Even if you are not a karaoke person, this place is a lot of fun. We have come here before with large groups for lunch. Last night we sang! We rented out an 8 person room (recording room) and bought a charcuterie board. The food was great and the drinks were strong, but the karaoke was soooo fun. They had a huge variety of songs - even some really obscure 80s and 90s songs that nobody else knew! We only struck out on 2 songs we wanted to sing, but both of them were REALLY far from being popular songs even back in the day! I gotta give a huge shout out to Patrick! He was super friendly, very knowledgeable and unbelievably patient with us. He did a great job of making everything even more fun. Everybody had a great time and we will definitely be back to sing in the main room!

Our family had an amazing experience at La La’s in St. Pete! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm and welcoming, but what truly made the night unforgettable was our server, Ethan. He was incredibly personable, attentive, and genuinely made us feel taken care of. When my wife needed a modification to her meal, Ethan went above and beyond by working directly with Chef Jessie to make sure everything was perfect and it absolutely was. The food was fantastic, the service was exceptional, and the entire team made us feel so welcome. We highly recommend La La St. Pete and will definitely be back!

JJ was a great server. Even though they were short staffed he did an excellent job. Appetizer and entree were delivered promptly. The calamari was the best I've ever had. Entrees were great. Steak was cooked exactly as ordered.

Ethan provided outstanding service from the moment we arrived until the end of our experience. He was incredibly attentive, professional, and genuinely kind, which made a huge difference. He checked in at all the right times without ever being overbearing, made sure everything was correct, and handled everything smoothly. You can tell he truly cares about providing great service and making people feel comfortable and taken care of. His positive attitude and attention to detail really stood out, and he played a big part in making the experience so enjoyable. I would absolutely recommend Ethan to anyone and would be happy to be helped by him again in the future.

Jesse and Anthony were fabulous. They both made sure our staff holiday parrt went smoothly, effortlessly and the food was amazing. The were kind, professional and went out of their way to make us feel welcomed. Our bartender, she was amazing and patient with us. Sorry, I did not get her name! We will be back to LaLa.. thank you!

Ethan was amazing! Super friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed the entire time. His service was fast, he checked in at the perfect moments, and had a great attitude that made our experience even better. You can tell he really cares about his customers. We’ll definitely be asking for Ethan next time!”

Lala delivered creative food in a fun and welcoming atmosphere. The waiter was great, authentically friendly and perfectly attentive. Many vegetarian options which I fully appreciate. Needed a pinch of salt, for my taste, but once added the flavor were bursting! Fresh bowl was beautiful and full of bright flavors. Truffle Mac n cheese was addictive! We sat in a booth with large open windows overlooking Central Ave. Great atmosphere on a beautiful day and such a nice way to enjoy Central Ave!

Good food and drinks at reasonable prices. Great service as well. Nice indoor and outdoor seating. Really liked my mojito and the blackened grouper sandwich. Oh, and the Lala fries were delicious. Everything came out quickly and was hot and fresh.

Lala is a go-to for me and my wife. Great food, great vibe, and the service is always outstanding. First-timer Kevin helped us out, and he was very attentive and friendly. Do not hesitate to go here, even if you're NOT doing karaoke!

Loved the Brussels sprouts. The burger was solid. Drinks were awesome. The midnight. Martini was great. Fun place totally worth checking out. 3 levels. Inside, outside, rooftop. I sat rooftop but they all seemed fun fun I didnt get to see karaoke rooms

As we walked in we were promptly greeted by the hostess that checked our reservation and show our table right away. They brought us some water and we were greeted by our service Kyra on November 29th. She was very pleasant and attentive to our needs right away. We got our drinks very quick and ordered our food. I ordered to start a French onion soup (soup was average. To be honest I don’t think there is much you can do to make a French onion soup amazing) after the soup I had the wild mushroom risotto. It was delicious. I usually order the steak but I decided to try something different and I don’t regret it. I asked to add octopus to my meal and it was delicious too. I just wished they were a little more generous with the amount of octopus that was added to the meal. In general was a great experience. Restaurant is beautiful, service was amazing and the food was pretty good! I would recommend this restaurant to a friend!

I liked the atmosphere and service was very good. We got the unlimited mimosas and server did a good job at keeping them coming when empty. This was not what I expected when ordering the french toast… not to mention half of it being burnt. I would probably go again and definitely try something different.

A night to remember! I am writing to share my positive experience celebrating my birthday recently at LALA. This was my first time visiting, and the lively and entertaining atmosphere did not disappoint. The energy throughout the venue was high and captivating. While our reservation for 13 did not initially place us on the rooftop as planned, we were happily seated in the back courtyard, and it turned out to be an absolutely beautiful night. We were fortunate to have Clifford as our server for the evening. He truly went above and beyond to compensate for the initial wait and the necessary accommodation adjustments. Despite the restaurant being packed, Clifford and his staff were attentive and took extra steps to ensure we had reserved seating for most of my guests who stayed for the 10 p.m. live mic karaoke, which worked out perfectly. Regarding the food, I would give it a 7 out of 10. The drinks, however, were excellent and fairly priced! If I could offer one suggestion, the Caesar salad dressing could be improved. This was a particularly meaningful birthday celebration for me, as I had not celebrated to this extent since the loss of my son five years ago. I wanted this year to be different, knowing he would want me to have fun. Clifford may not have been aware of the significance of the evening, but his genuine care for our experience made the night a huge success. Because of the fantastic service we received from Clifford, we absolutely had a wonderful time and will definitely be returning. Warm Regards, Marsha Brown

Fun experience with open karaoke. Service was super friendly. Menu has some unique spins on classic dishes but the food was just okay. Nothing bad but nothing standout. They do have private karaoke rooms for groups as well.

Cute spot for dinner. They also have karaoke rooms that you can book. The food was good but a bit pricey if you are on a budget. The restaurant is small and with a party of six the space was a little tight. The service was okay and the food took a while to come out, but it seemed to be a pretty busy night for them. Bathrooms were nice and clean. Overall, it was a nice dinner spot to hangout and have a drink. I think I would go with a smaller party next time.

Walking into the restaurant, it was raining, but we had to stand in the rain for a few moments while the man that opened the door for us from the outside, had a conversation with the girl on the inside of the restaurant. Once we stepped in and to the hostess station, we had to stand there for a bit longer for them to finish their conversation before we were actually greeted. We were a little early for our 6:30 reservation but they had a table available so they sat us in the middle of the row of tables along the front glass of the restaurant. The dining room is really small with so many tables shoved in the small space that you have to side step and shimmy through the chairs of diners to get to your table or the restroom. Our waiter was nice and friendly and took our drink and app orders quickly but we didn’t see him much more through the night at our table. Him and a few of his colleagues spent most of the evening at the end of the bar watching the Bucs game. Calamari app came out quickly. Probably because it was frozen, pre-breaded restaurant supply type calamari. Just ok. Definitely not worth the $17 or $18 price tag. It took our waiter a bit to take our entree order, so we waited a bit for our dishes to come out, but not too long. We both ordered the mushroom risotto and added grouper. $28. Risotto was cooked well and the mushrooms were delicious, but the dish was so overly salty that it wasn’t as enjoyable as it could have been. Grouper was disgusting. Dry, overcooked, and the flavor was terrible. All you could taste was smoke and char, no seasoning, a flavor akin to licking a dirty grill grate at the end of the night. I was shocked at how bad it was. Later that night, we came back to experience the private karaoke rooms and we had a really great time doing that. Our host was attentive but not overly bothersome and we had a blast. The price was $150 for 2 hours in the small room but I would do it again. In my opinion, lala should focus on the bar and karaoke aspect of the business and forget the “fine dining” part because the food just missed the mark on every level.
