Lu Lu's is our go to restaurant for the holidays. Since we downsized there is no longer room for family Thanksgiving dinners at home. When the family comes for the Thanksgiving, Lu Lu's offers great food, friendly and patient wait staff (our grandchildren are 2 and 3 year old) and a vibrant atmosphere.

Delightful venue with superb service. Nice fresh twist on Eastern European culinary staples, and many seafood offerings too. We enjoyed the excellent beef stroganoff and fantastic Budapest Schnitzel. The schnitzel was as good or better than what we had in Budapest and Vienna. We will definitely return.

In town for the Thanksgiving holiday and wanted to stop by to try this place and it did not disappoint! Service was excellent all around. Do yourself a big favor and make sure to order the cheddar biscuits—best biscuit I’ve ever had and apparently they sell out daily. We also enjoyed the toasted nuts, marinated olives and the short rib tortellini. We liked this place so much that we’re planning to come back again before heading home to try some of the other things on the menu that sounded so good (and you better believe we’re gonna get those biscuits again!!).

The food was very good.; highly recommend the chicharrones. The service staff seemed to have been short-handed. Our server kept waiting on the drinks; not sure what was happening at the bar. Overall this was a 2 and a half hour meal that could have been better managed/handled.
