Lillo Eatery — Restaurant in Reno

I'm so excited for this place to finally open back up. I was such a huge fan of Pola and was thrilled with the new menu. My fiance and I went here for our 5th anniversary and got tot sample the new breakfast options and we went a bit crazy. We got the lox and bagel, the breakfast sandie, the mochi waffles, and ended up getting an espresso and even some oatmeal.

The lox bagel is SOOOOOO FREAKING TASTY! Beautifully presented and so many flavors. Homemade bagel, homemade creamcheese, delicious smoked salmon, pickled red onion, and microgreens. 5/5 for sure.

I didn't get to sample the breakfast sandie cause my fiance ate the whole thing before I got a chance to try it lol. I guess that speaks for itself though.

I also go the mochi waffle which is made with mochi flour and has the consistency of the outer shell of mochi ice cream kind of. Basically a bit thicker and chewier on the inside but nicely crisp on the outside. Super unique and delicious especially with the fruit and purple fruity cream on the top. Again, looked and tasted great.

Ending up with the oatmeal was a happy accident at the end and we were stuffed but had a bite and that was super delicious too. I wish I remembered all the ingredients and why that also had a unique flavor and consistency. But i brought it home and ate it later for lunch.

Damn good! Everything at the cafe was so good and I really can't wait to sample the whole menu. Nothing will disappoint here, I can already tell and I'll be back a lot more. Thanks so much for helping us make our anniversary really...

Visited the first time a couple of weeks ago when I posted the five star rating. Visited again today, and have more time to leave a comment.

Lillo Eatery is fantastic. My first visit was late in the morning, the owner (I assume) took my order and it turned out my first two bagel choices were sold out. But the staff had just completed a to-go order of avocado toast on an everything bagel in error, which turned out to be my exact order on the sold out bagel I had wanted. The owner gave it to me at no charge given they need to remake it on the correct bagel and it was my exact order. I tried to pay for it and the owner said me taking it helped not create waste, which was so kind.

Today, I went back with one of my sons. He order the shakshouka and I got the avocado toast on a Za’tar bagel. Both were delicious, and portions were so big we needed to-go boxes. We ended up making two more additional orders before leaving, an everything bagel sandwich for my other son & a 1/2 dozen bagels with cream cheese.

Lillo Eatery is definitely going to be a regular place we visit. And clearly others too. From the moment we sat down to wait for our food, there was a line of people at the counter and at one point almost every seat was filled. Food is great, people are nice, and love supporting...

Lillo is one of the best restaurant rebranding that I have seen thus far. I use to come to Pola (the original restaurant) all the time, and it was a nice place with great food. The new restaurant Lillo, has a much wider selection of food like breakfast and lunch/dinner options (all the choices are so good)! The Breakfast Sandi is the best breakfast bagel sandwich in town, the addition of the chipotle mayo really pushes it over the edge. All of the bowls and salads on their menu are delicious, there is such a wide variety that no matter what you’re in the mood for you will find something you’ll love and enjoy!

My favorite part of the rebranding is the staff (some old some new). The staff is so welcoming and friendly. I have gone in multiple times since their opening and I always find myself having nice conversations with the staff. They are great listeners and if I need help with anything while I’m dining in they are always quick and so happy to help. The owner has done an amazing job choosing her staff, great job!

The restaurant is very clean and has a welcoming atmosphere. There is always good music playing, it’s never too loud and it’s always upbeat. Lillo is a great place to go and sit down for a meal or quick bite to eat. I will for sure be coming back, I highly recommend...
