Not worth it... – Poor service (including having to wait 30 mins. for a table reserved days in advance, and waiting a good 45 minutes for our meal), condescending staff, and boring/uninspired entrees... your money is better spent elsewhere - may as well spend the few extra $$ and go to French Laundry, if you're looking for french food... But they do deserve accolades for a decent wine list and their chocolate cake!

Best MUSSELS! – Would go back simply for the mussel appetizer!! Though everything else was high quality also!

Superb! – Reservations are great! I arrived right on time with my dinner guests (4) and we were seated promptly. The food was amazing. I would highly recommend the mussels, they were the best I've ever had - and I grew up in New England! We also ordered the heirloom tomato pizza as an appetizer, which was equally tasty. For dinner I had the pork loin, but I tasted everyone elses dinner also, and they were absolutely delicious. I will be back!

LuLu Rocks! – I was there on a Friday night with a group of four. We had reservations and were seated as soon as we arrived. I loved how they served all the entrees family style - no excuse needed to try everyone's dinner! Our server, Michele was fabulous - suggesting wine pairings for our dinners and later a flight of dessert wines when we couldn't decide. The roasted mussels were the best I've ever had and the lamb was so tender, never mind a fork - you don't even need teeth!

Tasty from start to finish – Arriving promptly at our reservation time, we were seat immediately. The mussel appetizer changed my view on mussels and I may never have them steamed again. Our meals were beyond tasty, and I haven't had such good venison since a hunting trip with the Boy Scouts. The warm chocolate cake and a yummy port (cheapest on the menu too) rounded out a fine meal. Our waitress was fabulous and even went so far as to sneak the mussel forks under our arms to the table while we were talking. More money than ... read more

we've had dinner several times at LuLu and have had a great experience every time. The staff is friendly and helpful and the food is delicious. The wait at the door is a little long, but tolerable if you have the mussels and martinis at the bar.

LuLu Still Shines – A group of us, who fancy ourselves "professional diners", visited LuLu last week. Although we made reservations 3 days in advance, we had to wait about 30 minutes to be seated. However, the host/manager was very polite and kept us abreast of the status every 10 minutes and even bought us a round of drinks for our trouble. For a restaurant that has been around as long as LuLu, the food and service remains impeccable. I recommend the baked goat cheese with olives to start and the David Bruce Pinot Noir; bot... read more

Crazy 4 Lulu – If I had read the rest of these reviews before I actually had dined at Lulu, I may have missed one of the best meals I've had in a while. I was duly impressed by our waiter and by the tastiness of our food. I may have to get a rotisserie grill for my own house so I can start working on copying some of that great chicken. My friends and I all had a great time and will be returning soon.
