LaLa Social House in Waterloo

Reserved a large table in advance by about a month for a birthday event. I was really pleased with the communication and level of details the staff provided to help me pull off a successful dinner party. Ten people ordered ten different menus items and no one was disappointed- everyone thought their meals were fantastic ! Drinks and atmosphere are also ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I’ve also had brunch here and it was delicious! We plan to come back - highly recommend!

We celebrated our anniversary at LaLa Social House, and it was a wonderful experience. The cuisine was absolutely exquisite. The atmosphere was equally enchanting, creating the perfect setting for a truly memorable evening. Highly recommend it!

Another great evening at LaLa Social House. A giant thank you to Todd and the staff. The food and service was exemplary as usual. Folks, if you haven't been here yet, do yourself a favour and pop in. Great food, ambiance, service, and awesome prices. On a side note, they grind their burgers in house and you can order them to your liking. Medium rare for me. I've literally eaten every burger in the world, this burger is hands down one of the best burgers I have ever had. (I didn't take pictures of the shrimp cocktail or grilled octopus appetizers, but they were a 10/10)

We were recommended this restaurant and we didn’t know what to expect. Lala does not disappoint! What a wonderful experience, the service was exceptional, the menu was varied, and the food was so good, all 5 meals exceeded expectations. The salmon was done to perfection and the sauce was creamy and so flavourful, even the hamburger got rave reviews, “possibly the best burger I ever had!” The vegetarian tofu meal was enjoyed and praised. We also enjoyed the shrimp cocktail and beet salad. Friendly staff, beautiful decor and great experience. Would definitely recommend for a special night out or celebration. Top notch.

Highly recommend for brunch experience on Sunday. We visited ~ 11 am. Drinks were served on time. I liked the atmosphere because it was quiet and calm. Waffles and chicken were really crispy, and our server kindly provided extra syrup when I asked. Salmon pate was very yummy, too.

This restaurant claims to be a fine dining establishment, but it is one of the worst restaurants I’ve been to. First of all, it’s not my fault that the reception isn’t at the front. The waiter sent us to LaLa Social House (2nd floor) and said we could sit wherever we wanted. When we chose a table for four, with no one else in the room—just my boyfriend and me—the lady from the bar asked us to stand and wait for the table. A man then confirmed our table but wouldn’t let us sit on the couch (for four) because it was for a larger group; instead, he let us sit at another table for four. So what’s the difference? Lol! Both are table for four. Additionally, the servers were unprofessional. I understand they are new, but if you are claiming to be a high-end restaurant, you should at least train your staff properly. The server spilled a drink on me and didn’t offer to replace it. I let it go because I understand the server is new. I live in the same building and came down to see if this could be a go-to restaurant since they opened to the public, but I guess not. The food and drinks were just okay.

Good. I enjoyed my time. Staff are friendly. Food is good. Atmosphere is good. Music is not overbearing like in other restaurants (they could still turn it down a bit though). They brought out the appetizers at the same time as the meal, which is odd. Usually appetizers should come before. Cons: a bit expensive, food slow to come out.

Overrated. Don’t waste your time! I can see now why they HAD to opened it up to the public. Made reservations for our party two weeks in advance for the terrace and got bumped 5 hours before for a larger party but was not advised until we got there. No apology given and there was only 6 people inside at the time and no one on the terrace for two hours. Very rude to bump us for a large party at the last minute . We sent in an email to the owner on this and they did not have the common courtesy to even reply to either one of couples who wrote in on this Horrible customer service. The food average not worth the money. Super small portions so you will not be full . Menu has like 6 main items to order from. One order at our table was fish and chips. Hope you like all badder and fries. Other menu portions were kids size for $40+. Do not go overrated. It’s a one and done place for sure. Management lacks!!! They tried to make it elite back fired.
