Lulu's Winegarden is a vibrant, Southwestern-inspired spot on U Street, blending creative cocktails, hearty bites, and a charming outdoor patio for leisurely sipping.
"A Southwestern-influenced wine garden with floral decorations, serving fresh cocktails and spring dishes like a pink party cake and Hatch Chili onion rings." - Emily Venezky

"Bravo TV enthusiasts, head to Lulu’s for its monthly Bravo Trivia Night on Tuesday, February 11. From 7 until 9 p.m., lovers of the Housewives franchise, Summer House, and Below Deck can test their obsessions while sipping on themed drinks. Organizers teased Bravolebrity drinks like “Real House-wines” and Dos Amigas margaritas, discounted fizzy drinks (sparkling wine, beer, Aperol spritzes), and there are prizes for winners. It’s free to play, however table reservations are encouraged on Resy. Watch parties to kick off the new seasons of Summer House and Love Is Blind are also coming up on February 12 and 14, respectively. There are also special Valentine's-themed drinks at Lulu’s all week, like the raspberry-flavored Love Story (Lulu’s Version) made with gin and dry vermouth, plus topped with edible rose petals." - Vinciane Ngomsi
"Thank goodness New Year’s Eve is also National Champagne Day, because then we would’t have Lulu’s 4th annual “Sparkling NYE.” The bubbles-filled celebration features tons of festive specials, including a happy hour; all-day discounts on bubbly bottles, sparkling cocktails, and party-size wines; a “2024 in Review” free trivia night; and more." - Vinciane Ngomsi
"Lulu’s Winegarden is celebrating its second annual Hallo-Wine from October 15-31. Diners can enjoy $45 bottle specials on pumpkin-hued and blood-red wines, “boo’sy” pumpkin spice and blood orange cocktails, and terrifying Tuesday trivia nights ranging from true crime, scary movies, and Bravoween." - Vinciane Ngomsi, Emily Venezky
