" My experience at Lilla was absolutely delightful! From the moment I walked in, the cozy atmosphere made me feel welcome. I ordered the spicy Alfredo and was blown away by the flavor. I loved that it didn't feel like a typical vegan dish - it really felt authentic. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable, and I can't wait to come back for dessert next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" Alright, Lilla is something special! From the moment I entered, the vibe was chill and welcoming. I had the Forest Mushroom Pizza, and it blew my mind. I have fond memories of Italian dining, and this was a refreshing twist. The only little note I would mention is perhaps expanding their dessert menu would be great! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a lovely dining experience! The interior is quaint yet stylish, which is hard to find. I was particularly impressed by the clarity of flavors in each dish; the pasta tasted fresh and homemade. The only minor downside was the price relative to portion size. Overall, it was a delightful evening that I would recommend to anyone. " (*Curated Review*)

" Lilla has some of the best vegan Italian food I've experienced. I was a bit hesitant about the idea, but every dish we tried was delicious. The staff members made excellent recommendations and were very accommodating. The only complaint I have is that some dishes could be a bit richer in flavor, but I will definitely return for another visit soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Whenever I’m in Portland, I make it a point to eat at Lilla! Their vegan options are delicious and inventive. The focaccia is the best I've ever had, and the staff are always welcoming. My only complaint is that the portions could be more generous given the price point. Still, this place remains one of my favorites! " (*Curated Review*)

" Lilla has a wonderful surprise in store for anyone who thinks vegan Italian can't be delicious. The creamy sauces and richly flavored dishes are truly impressive. The service was exceptional, though the environment was a bit tight when busy. I highly recommend their vegan versions of classic Italian dishes, and I can't wait to revisit. " (*Curated Review*)

" I think Lilla has nailed the vegan Italian concept pretty well! The atmosphere is inviting, and chilling here with a glass of lemon ice cream felt like a mini-vacation. Yet some of the dishes left me wanting more depth. Overall, I would certainly come back for the friendly staff and the fresh ingredients! " (*Curated Review*)
