Lola's
21 people recommend, 3 warn against itvia r/houston, r/HoustonFood26 comments cited below
What people say, in short
Many people recommend Lola's, often for cheap drinks, and several call it a dive. One describes it as raw and notes it has no sign out front, and one notes it sits a bit farther from the Medical Center. Not everyone is sold: one says it isn't classy, another finds it grungy and not for everyone, and a few caution against it, two of them for one particular kind of night out.
