Lola's Beach Restaurant — Restaurant in Dorado

If you haven’t been to Lola’s Beach Restaurant in Dorado, what are you even doing with your life? This place is a vibe—and by vibe, I mean epic beachfront eats, cool breezes, and the kind of food that makes you wish you had a second stomach.

Let’s start with the star of the show: the arañotas rellenas. These are not just any stuffed plantain fritters—they’re practically the size of your head and stuffed with enough seafood to make Poseidon jealous. Every bite is crispy, savory perfection. Fair warning: you’ll think, “Oh, I can finish this,” and then halfway through, you’re already plotting your next visit to try a different filling.

The menu is full of Puerto Rican classics that’ll make your taste buds do a happy dance. The coconut arepas? Genius. The mofongo? Life-changing. And if you’re into fresh seafood, this is your paradise. You might even catch yourself humming Despacito while digging into your plate—it just fits the vibe.

The setting is unbeatable. You’re right by the beach, with the sound of waves and a gentle breeze keeping you cool. It’s like nature decided to give you the perfect dining companion. And the live music? Pure fun! Whether it’s a local band or karaoke night, you’ll find yourself clapping along or, if you’re brave, grabbing the mic after a piña colada (or two).

The staff here are amazing—super friendly and quick to recommend their favorites (hint: trust them). They’re also very understanding if you need a minute to recover after stuffing yourself with all the deliciousness.

Lola’s Beach Restaurant isn’t just a meal; it’s an experience. Come for the food, stay for the beach vibes, and leave with a happy belly and a slightly tighter waistband. Pro tip: wear stretchy pants—you’re...

Great food despite super casual beach bar vibe. The 4 of us enjoyed Carrucho $15.00 AREPAS DE COCO $2.00 ARAÑOTA RELLENA Un Marisco $22.00 CEVICHE $0.00 FILETE DE DORADO $21.00 ARAÑOTA $0.00 LANGOSTA AJILLO $28.00 TOSTONES $0.00 MOF. RELLENO CAMARONES $23.00 AJILLO $0.00 everything was delicious but the stand out were the warm coconut arepas that we filled with carrucho (conch) as appetizers. The piña colada comes with whipped cream on top and the mojitos were bright and refreshing. The rest room was clean and convenient (nicer than you’d expect from the dining room vibe). I’d highly recommend everything we had but don’t...

We came for lunch two days in a row the food was so good! Lola's is located right across the street from the beach with parking behind the restaurant. It's a beach bar and while the service and ambiance was just fine (it was a weekday) it was the food that made this place so memorable. We ordered the arañitas appetizer (shredded green plantain) filled with ceviche which was my favorite. Also ordered the full snapper, churrasco which was perfect, platanos maduros and the arroz mamposteado. This place is so much better than the overrated La Terraza. Don't waste your time there, come...
