    Lula’s is a wonderful restaurant. We highly recommend it. The food was fantastic. Fresh, delicious, and delivered in good time. The portions were large and beautifully presented. The shrimp boil was exceptional. Monica was professional, warm, competent, and pleasant. We celebrated a special event and Monica seemed to celebrate with us. It was memorable and we plan to go again when we visit NOLA.

    I expected to have a better dining experience, being in New Orleans where the food is considered exceptional. All of the meals were just okay, not great. The noise level was extremely high, making it difficult to visit with our friends. The only items that I could say were very good were the bread pudding and the chocolate torte (which was not garnished with fruit or cream). I do not recommend Lula’s.

    My wife and I visited this restaurant for the first time this evening. I started with fried green tomatoes with shrimp, okra, bacon, jalapenos and a delicious sauce. I followed this with blackberry glazed ribs, creole slaw and roasted corn on the cob. The dessert was a flour less dark chocolate torte. My wife enjoyed grilled shrimp with Caesar salad and lemon ice box cake. This restaurant was the best we visited on our trip to New Orleans. This is the end of Day 4 of our trip. I strongly recommend this restaurant.
