Lulu's

Had the bruschetta for appetizer and it was so good. The oil and balsamic vinegar seasoning was perfect, the bread was soft, the tomatoes and cheese were fresh. Highly recommend it for an app. For entree, I had the pappardelle bolognese and my fiancée had the ravioli of the day which was a 4 cheese ravioli. Both were fantastic. The sauces were rich and creamy. The pasta was cooked to al-dente perfection. The meat on my dish was delicious. Left me wanting more. We got the gelato for dessert which was equally delicious!

No idea if I've written a review before but we (my husband and his mom and I) have been coming here on Sundays a few times a year since they opened. It isn't pretentious. Prices are reasonable. The atmosphere is friendly and comfortable. The staff seem to recognize us (I realized this the last time we went, which was lovely). We pretty much order the same appetizers and salads and change up our entrées depending on the season. My MIL has a more limited diet and Lulu's has some of her favorite simple dishes. We've had some mixed service over the years—sometimes really attentive, other times not, but no big complaints overall.The atmosphere is calm, even when the restaurant is more full. The music is the best part. So many places have really loud music playing so you can barely hear the people you're sitting with, but at Lulu's it's just right. That's probably the best way to describe Lulu's—just right for a peaceful, no-fuss but delicious meal.

Such a lovely place. We had my friend’s birthday dinner here with a party of 9. Our server was very attentive and kind. She brought plenty of bread and butter for the whole table. We had their Antipasto Board which was delicious. I had the Chicken Milanesa, it comes with creamy mashed potatoes and arugula salad. I definitely recommend it!

Great place for a quiet dinner. The place is beautifully decorated and the the atmosphere is fun without being loud. The food is great. Limited vegetarian options on the menu but they will tailor something specific for you. They added perfectly cooked vegetables to my dish. Rudy, our server, was attentive and jovial , and offered great suggestions when he learned I was vegetarian. I would happily return.

I put in a Google search to look for an Italian restaurant and found a great location that I drove by plenty of times. I’m glad I stopped this time. The host Katlin was so friendly when she welcomed us in, and the waiter Isreal gave us the best customer service. We were given great recommendations on daily food and drink specials. The Caesar salad was the best. I look forward to returning.

A very lovely spot for a date. We really enjoyed our food. The server recommended I add chicken to my carbonara dish, but I really could have gone without, it was very filling. It is a bit pricey, we got charged $10 because we asked for a small amount of olives to go with our bread.

It is a nice place, good location, it has a fairly large parking lot so you will not have any problems with that. The attention was good, the manager was at the door and was quite friendly, our server was okay. We went for brunch, the menu is quite complete. Order a Bellini it was really delicious. As a main meal, I ordered Spanish Tortilla, it was delicious, accompanied by a fairly fresh salad. I feel that as an Italian restaurant that the bread service is not complementary is something that in my opinion takes away some points. In general it was a good experience, it is a nice place for dates or family meetings.

Came in with a good friend on a cold Wednesday night. It was not as busy. Our waiter Israel was friendly and attentive. We order olives and calamari for appetizers. They were really good. Calamari had fried hot peppers in was surprisingly tasty. Arugula and pear salad was very tasty as well. Branzino was made perfectly. Overall, it was a very delicious meal with great atmosphere! I would definitely come back again!

Always accommodating with quite excellent food, attentive service and a pretty setting.

This is a hidden gem that I never knew about but glad I was introduced to this great place! I was invited to come here for a company meeting with some vendors and it was a small, quaint place for us to talk without feeling like it was too crowded or loud to hear each other. When we got seated, we were provided menus by the host and said our server would be with us shortly. It was probably 10 minutes after being seated that a server came up to us and he greeted us and asked if we would like anything other than water which we ordered some ice teas as well as waters. He brought out our drinks quickly and asked if we needed more time to review the menu for appetizers and we said yes. Which he didn't come back to our table until I had to catch his attention in order to order some appetizers. Once the appetizers were done with, he came back to clear everything off and we ordered our main entrees. I had decided to go with the spaghetti with a side of meat balls. When our food came out, my meatballs weren't on the spaghetti and I thought maybe he would bring out the meatballs in a few minutes but after getting all of our entrees on the table, and starting to eat, I realized that our server wasn't coming back because I saw him start bussing other tables to clear their dirty dishes and started re-setting them again. I had to get his attention to ask him about the meatballs which he realized that weren't brought out and he brought them out in a small ramekin and then I also asked for crushed chili peppers. Overall food was delicious, great ambiance and price is reasonable. I'd love to come back here again for dinner! I would say that service could have been better as the server I had was not as attentive. I don't know if he was new and training or if he generally is just not attentive to the tables he has, however it did cause everyone at the table to feel like they weren't taken care of because of a delay in the service. The meal was about 1 hour 15 minutes when I feel like it could have been within the 1 hour since it's a lunch service and the restaurant wasn't packed.

whoever says they do not like this place is lying to themselves, the food and drinks are amazing here, my favorite entrees are the carbonara and the braised short rib, it can be pricey but the price is worth the delectable food, definitely recommend coming here!

Vibe- This is a very cute Italian restaurant in the River Oaks area in Houston, TX. There's a good amount of dining space inside. There's also a bar as well. Customer service- Pretty good. Everyone I encountered on my visit had good customer service. Food/drinks- I really wish there would've been more vegetarian/vegan friendly menu items for brunch, but I did enjoy the waffle and side of potatoes that I ordered. I also had a lemon drop martini that was really good too. Parking- There's plenty of spots in the lot where the restaurant sits.

Adorable restaurant, and perfect for a date night or intimate dinner with friends. The food wasn't amazing (but good), but the vibe was energized, hospitable and cozy. Sometimes you walk into restaurants and it's ultra-modern / trendy so you sit up taller and stiffen a bit... this was the opposite - felt like i was walking into a friend's kitchen that was warm and welcoming. The food was good - appetizers were the best course: burrata and beet salad + grilled octopus salad was a delicious start. I had the branzino and the fish was tasty - enjoyed the crispy skin, the savory sauce and the bed of spinach. I also thought the pistachio gelato was a refreshing end to the meal. I would recommend the restaurant to anyone that wants a comfortable dining experience without a lot of pomp and circumstance, but still a higher-end impressive service and dining experience.

Great service, everyone was nice and helpful. Dallas did a great job in making our meal special. The rack of lamb was outstanding, 2 double chops that cooked perfectly and the wine paired nicely. Went early, but did get a little noisier by the time we left but not enough to bother us. Great meal, will definitely be back.

Lovely, low key and semi casual yet upscale atmosphere. Really charming. A nice date night ambiance. The food was unexpectedly impressive. The bread is a must try even with the up charge, which is unfortunate. It's still very odd to have to pay for bread in Houston. The cacio and Pepe pasta was great and it was a nice suggestion to add veggies to it - of course for another up-charge. Service was consistently off. Why servers can't write things down is so frustrating,,especially with multiple courses and special preferences for a table of four- smh. Of course wine was forgotten, instructions were missed and check was incorrect. I'd skip the dessert. Nothing special and not worth the carbs! Probably more of a "3" experience but I really liked my pasta. Glad I tried Lulu and may or may not be back.

I rarely award 5 stars Reserved, seated immediately. Dinners were excellent. Braised short rib was perfectly moist, not too much fat, solid portion, not too small not too large. Substituted the polenta for more veggies, well presented and delicious. Grilled branzino was also well proportioned, prepared, accompanied with vegetables. Shared the polpee (meatballs/ polenta) to start - tasty, texture was spot on. Shared the Tiramisu to finish - was appropriately decadent and the cream wasn't overpowering. Small venue, which I prefer. Lots of mirrors, decor, didn't super notice that we're right on Kirby. Mid-aged to older River Oaks crowd. Bonus on the way out ran into our friends Zack and Jenny :-)

Came for our first restaurant weeks dinner of 2022: despite a rocky start--it took a little too long for anyone to come over and offer service--Lulu's did not disappoint. Everything was well portioned and flavorful. In our party, we ordered one of everything (appetizers and desserts) on their Restaurant Weeks menu and the Bronzino, carbonara, and braised pork. Nothing disappointed and everything was delightful. Once we received service, it was excellent. Had we not had to inquire the whereabouts of a waiter, it's easily a 5...but then again, the mirrors threw us off a little.

Quaint Italian eatery. We booked Sunday brunch at opening (11 am). There was plenty of parking out front (no valet offered), and there's also parking in the back of the restaurant. Good service, great ambiance. The tables filled up while we were there, but it didn't feel loud or crowded. All brunch items were delicious! Eggs were overcooked for the avocado toast and crab Benedict dishes. Food came out cold or at room temperature. Mimosas had a bit too much OJ for my taste. Our table also split the tiramisu, and it was non-traditional but still a nice treat to end the meal with!

I've driven by this place numerous times, so I was excited when we came here for a friends baby sprinkle. I was a little put-off from the start when it took way too long for someone to offer us drinks. I ordered the arugula and pear salad as an appetizer (which never came out), and the carbonara entree - which was just ok. I've had much much better elsewhere in Houston. Very quaint, cute restaurant but the food did not seem on par with the price points and service was quite slow and lacking.

We love Lulu's! We have never had a bad meal, the service is amazing! Food , staff, ambience is excellent.

A friend wanted to bring me here for my birthday and after seeing the reviews I was skeptical, but man was I pleasantly surprised!!! Summary: the restaurant was elegantly decorated, the food was great, and the server was a sweetheart. A more detailed dive into the food below. Arugula and Pear Salad: SO YUMMY! Would come back for this and the bread service alone. The description said it had gorgonzola and I was scared it would be nasty but somehow it all works and the gorgonzola isn't as pungent as you'd think. There was these amazing candied pecans (or walnuts maybe?) that added the perfect crunch and sweetness paired with the tangy vinaigrette. Just overall a really solid and yummy salad. Portion was big enough for 2 of us to share as an appetizer. Bread Service: thick slices of bread with honey butter and olive oil + balsamic vinegar on the side. I love carbs and I love dipping them in yummy things, so it was a win win for me. The bread itself was also great with a nice crunchy crust and warm soft inside. Guavissimo Mocktail: This was just okay. I would definitely skip it, not worth the $13. Carbonara: I don't eat pork so we ordered it with no pancetta (my friend actually got it on the side and said it was yummy, but I have no idea). The carbonatta was good but it just needed salt, like I'm not sure if the pancetta was supposed to provide the saltiness, but it was very bland. I feel like if it was salted properly, I could have really enjoyed it. We asked for salt on the side but it didn't really make that much difference since the pasta was already fully cooked. Rissoto de Portofino: AMAZING!!! It was a truffle mushroom rissoto topped with lobster. The rissotto was so creamy and rich, and you could really taste the flavor of the truffles. The mushrooms added a nice texture, and the lobster meat was just the icing on the cake. I honestly would have been happy to eat the rissoto without the lobster too (they could make a solid vegetarian version by just removing the lobster and adjusting the price lol). Overall, my friend and I had a really good experience and we both agreed that we would come back! Give this place a chance, you won't regret it.

The food is nicely presented and fresh. The service is always spot on. All of the staff members are extremely friendly, accommodating and seem to remember anyone who has ever step foot in the restaurant. The ambiance is relaxing and cozy.

Great ambiance and service with food that was all deliciousss!! Would make for the perfect intimate date night - Highly recommend!

My fiance took me here as a treat for some italian food. the best part about the place is the ambiance; i really loved the bar area and it is definitely a cool spot for a date. They have some zero-proof cocktails on the menu if that is your thing. I tried one and it was fantastic. Overall the food was just okay, and a little disappointing for the price. The best dish we tried was the calamari appetizer. I splurged on the lobster sacchetti pasta and was underwhelmed. I did not get a lot of flavor, but there seemed to be a decent sized lobster portion at least. I would not order it again. This place is great for a cool date or to meet a friend if you are going to get drinks and an app or two. I would not recommend it for dinner with so many other options in town.

Very cute, intimate experience. Great cocktail selection. The lobster risotto was divine and I finished the entire plate. It's definitely pricey for the serving size though; you likely won't be taking home leftovers. Tiramisu is my favorite dessert and I found theirs to be just average. I'd come back though!

Great staff, plenty of parking, good food, good prices. The vibe is chill. We come once a week.

We were two couples who dined at LuLu's on Friday evening. I will say from the start that my husband and one of our friends are first generation Italians, so we were expecting a fabulous meal. Other than two other tables, we were the only adults in the restaurant. (It was prom night somewhere, and there were two large parties that seemed to be enjoying themselves.) We read many mixed reviews about this restaurant but still decided to give it a go. Our waiters were attentive almost to the point of being annoying--"Would you like another cocktail?" "Would you like another glass of wine?" "Would you like???" etc... The polpette and polenta appetizer was enough for the four of us, but the meatballs were tough and not very flavorful. The "bread service" was ok; some of the focaccia tasted like fennel, other pieces did not so I think it was not well-mixed before baking. The salads were fine. Three of us had the short ribs, and my husband had the Papparadelle with bolognese sauce. That was pretty awful; it did not taste at all like any bolognese sauces we have ever had--including in Bologna, Italy. The short ribs were good as was the polenta under them. However, the carrots were not cooked; they were not even al dente. Dessert was gelato, although the raspberry gelato was more sorbet than gelato. The bombolino were were just okay. The real kicker however was our "doggy bag." Half of my husband's beet salad was missing which I did not notice until we got home. They boxed his pappardelle which we said we did not want, but they did not box my short rib of which there nothing left except half the short rib; I ate the polenta and did not want the carrots. They went to the kitchen and brought out a box that was not mine because it still had lot of polenta in it. They went back to the kitchen to get another box which had carrots in it. At that point I said no thanks as I did not want someone else's leftovers. The thing to do was offer me an entirely new meal to take home since they messed up. I would have refused, but there was no offer forthcoming. I am glad we tried LuLu's, but the four of us will not be returning. Unfortunately that means that none of our grown, married children will be trying it nor will their friends. I was really expecting so much more.

Good food, great atmosphere and location but absolutely horrible customer service. This place is grossly understaffed and obviously not well-managed.

Came here with some friends for 2023 Restaurant weeks with high hopes based on the menu. Sadly I have to agree with many other reviewers that the service and front of the house staff was just poorly run. We waited at the bar for 10 minutes for a menu, slow bartender, not the best drinks. When we sat down we waited another 10 minutes to get menus, wrong appetizers and desserts came out just poor service all around. Overall the food was good, the ambiance is light and airy/not too stuffy. Food wise we had the pear salad, calamari, burrata and octopus salad for starters all great. We also had the branzino and pappardelle for mains and closed with the cheesecake and gelato all very good. If they would just work on the front of the house it would be 5 stars.

My daughter and I were looking for a place to eat, after church. Walked by this place and there were only two people inside, so we decided to give it a try. First, let me say, the place is very nice, clean and quaint. After looking at the menu, we had second thoughts about leaving, because everything on the menu was overpriced, but we stayed. We ordered from the brunch menu. My daughter ordered the lobster roll and said it was tasty. I ordered the waffle and bacon. When it arrived at our table, I could tell that the waffle was cold and the bacon was not freshly cooked, in fact, both items were cold. Who enjoys eating cold waffles and previously cooked bacon. The waiters give the impression of professionalism, but don't be fooled. We will never eat here again!

Try it for 1st time! The food was just season properly. Love the steak, chicken and pasta dishes. The lady cello drink was just perfect. The space is great for date night, family gathering or just brunch. The service was excellent too. The waiter came again again to make sure we had everything we needed. We will definitely be back again.

Josiah excelled at waiting on our 4-person party. FIVE STARS!!! The grilled Caesar salad, branzino, salmon, pappardelle bolognese, bombolinos, & cheese cake were all excellent. The atmosphere was pleasant. These four seniors could hear each other talk! Great evening.

One of the best restaurants in Houston. Food was scrumptious, service by Josiah was exemplary, ambiance definitely upscale and very comfortable- except I'm short and my seat at the table seemed like a high chair to me. It didn't take away from the experience though.

I came in on a Friday evening to dine alone. Manny was my server and his service was impeccable. He was extremely attentive, and so polite. For the main course I had the short braised ribs. They were melt in your mouth-tender!! The tenderness of the short braised ribs made me want to savor every single bite for as long as I could! It would be very difficult to come back to this restaurant and consider ordering anything else bc the dish was that exquisite! What a lovely first time experience!

Excellent food,wine,atmosphere and great service,I recently visited this place with my children (all grown up) and really enjoyed it. I definitely recommend this place

Went to Lulu's for a solo brunch. I had been meaning to try this restaurant for a while so I decided to treat myself to brunch. It did not disappoint! Jonathan, my waiter, was very attentive. The food was delicious. The only thing I wish I had known is that they add tomato sauce to their breakfast potatoes. Not my fav. It wasn't a deal breaker. But sadly tomato sauce doesn't agree with me. I ordered the steak and eggs and it was so flavorful. I'd definitely return to Lulu's to explore their menu.

It hurts me to write this because I had been looking forward to dinner at this new sister spot to Armando's. The space is beautiful and I was impressed with the lighting and long bar. However, I hate tiny table dining and the table we were sat at was miniscule. It also was shoved right against the wall. For this price point I don't want to have to lean on a wall my entire meal. Our server, although friendly, was not up to date on the wine list and also seemed uncomfortable making suggestions. Once again, at this price point I expected more. On to the food. The bread basket was basic. We had the calamari to start, and I wanted to love it, I really did! However, it was lacking in sauce. What little sauce there was, was stuck in the bottom of the deep bowl it was served in. Once I got to the bottom and tasted some of the elusive sauce I enjoyed the last few bites, sadly all the calamari at the top of the bowl had been bone dry. The grilled romaine caeser was nice, served with anchovies and a tasty dressing. We tried two pastas and the lobster ravioli was AMAZING. The only dish that really was inspired. Large pieces of juicy lobster with a light sauce and lovely, plump pasta pillows. I would come back for this. The spaghetti vongole was next. It lacked depth and flavor. No notes of wine or garlic. It wasn't even aromatic! The sauce was, dare I say, bland.... The pizzas being delivered to other tables looked nice, perhaps I would have had more luck with one of those. Overall there are so many great pasta joints in Houston that have superb service and appropriate pricing. This isn't one of them.

The food was very good but the ambiance could be better. This place is not for younger crowds. Service was pretty good.

Fabulous calamari, seasoned beautifully. Wine very good, too. The restaurant has an intimate, great layout and the service was great.

I do not know why this place has such a low rating because it's delicious! The meatballs, calamari (even though I really don't like it thick like an onion ring), Caesar salad (not your standard salad) , & lobster ravioli were all amazing! My husband & I usually dine out 4 to 5 days out of the week and the prices are competitive within the market. I have no complaints & will definitely be back!

5 stars for ambiance, 2 for service, 2 for food for 3 star average. Ordered Cesar, caccio e Pepe, and chicken marsala. Cesar was not grilled correctly, it was over done on outside and raw inside, and pepper was too intense. Caccio e Pepe was good, with a surprising noodle choice, but this town has a strong caccio game and this one doesn't quite compete. Chicken Marsala was exceptional, only complaint is that the potato purée is too reminiscent of baby food and doesn't compliment the rest of the plate. The build out is beautiful with stylish details that create a very comfortable atmosphere while asserting sophistication. The tableware, particularly glassware, is magnificent. UPDATE: Moments after posting my initial review, Matt reached out to me and so I decided to return for brunch service. Edward took excellent care of my friend and me; wine glasses were never low and if a napkin fell on the floor, he would instantly appear to replace it. We ordered the eggs ben, lobster roll, and American breakfast. Eggs Benedict was five stars, and I am so sorry that I did not take a picture of the perfectly poached eggs. It is served with a crab cake, not too crabby nor overwhelming, pairs well with the hollandaise that is a touch more acidic than usual. The lobster roll was magnificent, the brioche melts in your mouth and the lobster is served warm, accompanied with a refreshing side salad. The American breakfast is basic, but eggs, potato's, and bacon are cooked to perfection. I give the brunch experience 5 stars, average with dinner review of 4 overall.

Very average Italian restaurant. It is obviously that the foods are not prepared with the authentic Italian cooking way. The desserts are disaster! The tiramisu is basically piled up with cookies and cream! Not only it cost $14 but it's much worse than the ones I can get from the Le Madeline! Very disappointing!

I don't understand the negative reviews that were placed during opening week. I would rate Lulu's as outstanding all around. We ate at the nice bar, which is out preference. Met some nice people there. The food was very good to excellent. My wife loved the beets and artisan burrata cheese appetizer. I enjoyed the meatballs on polenta with maybe a little pesto. Also the arugula and prosciutto pizza. Attentive but not overbearing service. We will be back.

I will start off with the bad.. I was very disappointed in the serving size the lobster sachetti for $75. It is not worth it for the amount of food your receive. This really changed the mood of our outing for Mother's Day due to one of us not getting enough to eat. On to the good. Service and atmosphere was perfect. The braised short rib was so tender on top of the potatoes and carrots. The Rissotto special with shrimp was also amazing. Bread service is a must and very tasty. Italian Margarita nice a strong!!

We enjoyed a business lunch to complete a transaction and were met, greeted and immediately seated by smiling staff. The luncheon menu provided delicious options and we each paired a wonderful salad and Main of our choosing. I started with the bright and tasty Pear and Arrugula salad. My Main was a delicious Carbonara. The sauce was so smooth added to by the egg yoke topper increasing the silkiness with beautiful smokey pieces of pancetta woven through the pasta. We shared the Tiramisu and Bombolini to close our meal. Easy to enjoy. I highly recommend Lulu's

We've eaten at LuLu's several time and I'm afraid to say the food quality has declined. It's in a great location and has a "neighborhood" restaurant feel. It has a very nice atmosphere, great presentation of the food, good service and everyone is pleasant. However, the food leaves something to be desired. My wife and I had dinner with another couple last night. Three of us had pasta dishes - Carbonara, Bolognese, and Pomodorini. None of these three were very good. Overall, I would say they were just bland. Very little flavor or interesting taste. I had the Bolognese and found myself covering it with salt and pepper. Also, I have finally decided that I don't care for the Burrata salad. At first, I liked the idea of the beets, but now it feels they are just overpowering. Maybe mixing in some nice, ripe heirloom tomatoes would help, but the way it is now just isn't working for me. Unfortunately, we will probably not be coming back to LuLu's any time soon. Will have to find another intimate Italian restaurant!

So following on from my last review Matt J did reach out to me with the following message - I am absolutely horrified by the experience you described. I would love to have our COO reach out to you. If you are comfortable with that, please let me know the best contact for you. This is completely unacceptable behavior on all sides. I did not hear from anyone after providing my cell number which they had from the reservation I had made! Hey Ho - time to move on.

We had a table of 4 in Roundtop,and after an elaborate lunch asked for an extra cookie that had come with the dessert. They rudely replied that we would have to pay for the entire dessert to get one small cookie snd would not relent... what a ridiculous attitude and we all agreed to never come back!

Great evening at this cute intimate Italian restaurant on Kirby. We enjoyed that the tables were far enough apart and we could hear each other. The food was delicious. There were 4 of us ordering the branzino ,salmon, beef pasta dish ,grilled Caesar's salad. a unique strawberry cheesecake and bambolinas. There are not many Italian restaurants that have these delicious bites of heaven .Josiah was our excellent server for the evening. He was charming and did an excellent job. We had a wonderful evening. lots of parking too.

Picked this for brunch on a Sunday. Great place for a casual brunch. Light and bright spot, great food and the service was excellent. Very attentive wait staff and they were happy to accommodate any changes to our orders. Would definitely come back again. Loved the vibe of this place!

First time in the restaurant and was not satisfied. The service was slow, food is overpriced and underwhelming. Won't be back.

I came with my husband on a late afternoon. Service was great and our server had very nice suggestions. Drinks were also very good and prices are not exorbitant. I believe it's part of the Armando's group of restaurants. Place looks very cute and small which makes it cozy.

I had read the bad reviews on Yelp and was hoping to be able to give them a good review... We dined at Lulus on Saturday night as a group of 4. I had made the reservation weeks in advance and had been looking forward to trying our new neighborhood restaurant. Things started out well with cocktail/wine arriving quickly. One member of our party was on a special diet so she ordered separately but the rest of us ordered 5 dishes to share. I asked that our dishes come out as ready since we had ordered several. My friends salad came out pretty quickly but none of our dishes came out until almost an hour after our reservation. All 5 of our dishes arrived at the same time. I have to think that they misunderstood me and instead heard to bring everything at once. The pepperoni pizza we ordered appeared to be a frozen pizza. It was a perfectly round cardboard type crust as you get in the freezer section of the grocery store. I honestly feel confused why they would bother putting pizza on the menu. Our friends did end up taking the pizza home and said their kids loved it for lunch. I say this only because I am not above frozen grocery pizza, in fact I love it, I just don't typically pay $18 for it. Both of our pastas were cold when they arrived. The beef was cooked well. I really wanted to love this restaurant but I can't imagine going back. I would like to also say that I completed a five day fast on Friday and even given that I hadn't eaten food all week this was still mostly inedible. Very disappointing, especially at this price point.

We had a good Italian takeout dinner form Lulu's. I thought the papardele bolognese pasta was probably my favorite part of the meal--the pasta was well-cooked, and the sauce was tasty. The margherita pizza was just OK--while the sauce was nice and sweet, the crust and toppings weren't anything special. Overall, I thought the meal was rather expensive for what it was, but it was OK.

Check #35 Guest:2 Ordered, 9-29-21 at 17:53 Hours (5:53 PM) Table: 23 EXTREMELY disappointing.  Too many "NO's" to the customer.  No mint cucumber martinis, no watermelon martinis, no cosmopolitan martinis, no sweet & low (for tea), no salmon, no oysters, no sea bass, etc. The chicken Marsala , skin still on the chicken, it was hard. The perfect martini was NOT perfect. Butter was frozen.  Grilled branzino was insipid. The Polpetite was not to taste.  Should I continue?  Again, very disappointing.   Ruben came to our table, in spite table #35, was not his assigned section, providing great friendly customer service with a smile.  Exiting the restaurant was also very difficult. The service was a "5 star"rating.  Teresa as friendly, professional, attentive, and was proactive to my requests. Excellent ratings for Ms. De Jesús A, and Ruben. We will not be returning any time soon.

My wife and I tried this place after looking for a new Italian restaurant to have when we wanted to celebrate and wow, Lulu's certainly delivered! The atmosphere is very welcoming and comfortable, but very nice. I wouldn't wear a tee shirt here. The service was great. Our waiter walked us through the menu, his recommendations, and was attentive but not overbearing. He also was very thorough when checking for food allergens We got the calamari to start, which was a perfect portion for two. It was in a sort of sweet & sour sauce that wasn't too heavy but complimented the dish well. The fried banana peppers are so good in this dish. I got the Bolognese and my wife got the lobster ravioli. Both were excellent, but the ravioli was the real star. They make their own pasta which adds to the dishes being very good. The bolognese was good, not great. The sauce was not what I was expecting, but still good. We both had a recommended wine pairing as well. Overall, this was an excellent experience and we will sure be back!

i went there with a friend for lunch. No luncheon menu. I will say that everything looks good including the restaurant. Service is excellent. The meatball appetizer was just 4 dry meatballs, but the polleta underneath was good (actually the best food that we had). The bread served at the table is below average - for our $100+ lunch, they should check out Sorrento's. I had the "recommended" Papardele Bolonese $28. It was cold, and I suggested to my guest that I send it back to put it in the microwave. She didn't want me to make a scene so I did not do so. I could write a bit more, both pros and cons. But I won't be back.

Great place to try. I gave them a 4 because spaghetti with claims was to much pasta. But the sauce was amazing!. Service was the best Mandi at the bar was wonderingful. Very pleasant .
