I had an incredible meal at Cola’s Restaurant! I ordered the Whole Crispy Flounder, and it was a standout dish. The fish was perfectly fried with a crispy exterior and tender, flavorful meat. The apricot shallot sauce added a delicious sweet-savory note that paired beautifully with the flounder. The sides of linguine and vegetables were fresh and well-seasoned, balancing the dish nicely. I also had a whiskey sour, which was well-made and complemented the meal perfectly. With great food and a lovely atmosphere, Cola’s is definitely worth a visit!

This was our first visit to Cola's. We decided to go for our Thanksgiving dinner and it did not disappoint. Everything we had was delightful! The brussel sprouts we had for our appetizer were amazing. Three of us had the traditional dinner which was very good, as well as the braised beef and potatoes and the hamburger. We will definitely be back to visit and recommend to our friends and family.

We were walk-ins but were offered a bar table. The bar is open and has 2 good TVs if you want to watch a game. The have a good list of seasonal drinks and while I was not sure of what to order I finally decided on a rhubarb strawberry smash. I’m picky about cocktails- I was pleasantly surprised. They also have a very good feature/seasonal menu. We had the roasted oysters. My son and I both love oysters and we both gave it a 10/10. If they offer these when you visit please try them. The other standout was the whole flounder. It was crispy on the outside and meaty in the inside. The 2 things I did not love about this restaurant was the side of plain pasta that came with the flounder and there is no draft beer. Even taking that into account this is absolutely a 4.8 of 5 casual American fair restaurant.

Three friends and I dined for dinner 8/30 celebrating a birthday (which I put on the reservation), a job promotion and just fellowshiping. I was extremely disappointed that I chose Cola's for our dining. I dined here 3 times before in previous years and never had a bad experience. A sharp object under the table booth also scratched my leg, which the manager on duty argued it did not versus apologizing. The food quality and taste was below standard and came out lukewarm. Table service upon seating and throughout service was slow and underwhelming. The birthday was never acknowledged and we were not given the service that should've been provided at a semi-fine dining experience. Literally, no one finished their meal and everyone left unsatisfied. I also gave a review on the booking site with no response which is beyond disappointing.
Appetizers ordered: Brussel sprouts, Calamari, Fried Asparagus, Shrimp Savannah
Entrees ordered: Fried pork chop, Beet salad, Chicken parmesan, BBQ salmon

Absolutely superb food. I had the lafayette ribeye it was so succulent and not spicy. The granny smith pork chop was juicy and had great taste. Mac and cheese was like mama made it. Will definitely be back again
