Hello. We would like to introduce ourselves. We are Joe Hargrave and Andrew McCormack and we are the partners behind Laïola --that's pronounced "LYE-OLA" by-the way. Our chef is Mark Denham.
Laïola is our idea of a perfect neighborhood hangout, a humble place that feels like a home away from home. No big attitude. The food is Spanish - with a California sensibility. You can come here for a small bite alone, or a big meal with friends.
Hours: Laïola opens for business seven days a week at 5:30pm. The kitchen closes at 10:30 pm. Our bar closes at 11pm.
Our wine list focuses exclusively on wines from Spain and domestically produced Spanish varietals. We feel there are a lot of amazing values in Spanish winemaking to be discovered and enjoyed. Instead of by the glass, we serve our wines in 250ml. (1/3rd of a bottle) servings in carafinas. Our bar serves a well edited selection of carefully crafted cocktails. Bottles of wine generally range between $30 and $60. A mixed drink from the well costs $7 and a martini is $9.
