We came to Lulo's for dinner on a weekday evening -- the seating is in the basement since nobody was on the patio/ground level area. Staff members were quick to seat us once we went downstairs. There is a good amount of seating both downstairs and upstairs, though it was empty when we arrived so we got to sit anywhere! The menu has a good amount of appetizers, entrees and cocktails. We opted for two appetizers plus one entree to share. The empanadas were good and I enjoyed the crispy exterior, but the meat was a tad dry on the inside. The chorizo and patacones were very tasty and the pico de gallo was very refreshing (the empanadas came with pico de gallo as well) to pair with it. We ordered the carne asada as the entree, but they didn't have the skirt steak that evening, so they offered to swap it with churrasco's steak. The steak was very juicy and tender and came with rice, plantains, and a side salad. Definitely a shareable entree, but also probably a good size for one person without additional appetizers. For drinks, they had a ton of tasty options and I had a hard time deciding on just one drink. We enjoyed both the caipirinha and the key lime martini. The tres leches was also super tasty and big enough to share. They have a super cute interior with murals, lights, artificial plants, etc, but it was very dark inside. I would definitely come back to get more drinks and snacks! Parking

My husband and son(5) had lunch here before an event. I sat at the patio. It appeared the indoor seating was in the basement. I appreciated the atmosphere. Light natural feel with plants The sandwich (cuban) my husband ordered looked great. He enjoyed it even as a picky eater! My son ordered a smoothie which was super yummy. He said it was his favorite! I ordered the empanadas. They were very flavorful. I wish I would have gotten something else too because they were more of an appetizer for me. The server was very kind.

The ambiance of the restaurant is beautifully moody with a pleasing decor, though the low lighting makes it challenging to capture good photos. The teriyaki salmon was cooked perfectly, although the teriyaki flavor was subtle, which suited my taste. The guacamole was a touch salty for my liking. I also enjoyed the refreshing limeade with strawberry and cucumber--a perfect cool treat on a hot day that I would definitely order again. The music and overall ambience created a lively vibe that made me feel like dancing. My only suggestion would be for the restaurant to ensure that their full menu is available throughout lunch hours; unfortunately, about half of the lunch menu items were not available between 12:30 and 1:00.

My husband and I made dinner reservations for 7:30 on a Friday evening. The waiting area is a tad confusing; you're suppose to check in upstairs before they escort you down the stairs. So, wait until you're greeted upstairs before you head downstairs. The atmosphere is very chic. We were seated at the table across from the stairs. I noticed throughout our time there that many people came immediately downstairs just to go up the stairs again. My personal opinion is there should be a clear sign upon entry to wait upstairs before being escorted down. Service was slow in the beginning; it was most likely due to the fact that there were multiple parties seated before us at the same time. Nevertheless, I counted about 5-6 working servers, 2-3 bartenders, and 1 very active hostess so that shouldn't be an issue. Our server, Miguel, took about 8 minutes to greet us and take our beverage order. The wait time when we were seated set precedent of the wait for food and drinks the entire evening. Because of that realization, we ordered our drinks and appetizer immediately, then our entree before appetizer even came out. Our drinks consisted of Caipirinha, Resurrection, and Mango Jalapeño Margarita. The food were empanadas, carne asada, and mango salmon. It took ~18 minutes for our 2 drinks to come out. We noticed the table who arrived around 10 minutes after us received their drinks before we did. I don't know the complexity of their drink order but we should've received ours prior to them. Our appetizer came out shortly after. The food and drinks were robust, and we enjoyed them all. The empanadas were flavorful and came out piping hot. We could've ordered another plate of it. The sweet plantains with the carne asada was a sweet treat of a salty and savory dish. The salmon and mango was also a great combination. The mango is a cold topper so don't expect the salmon to come out hot. We spend about $140 with 1 appe, 2 entrees, and 3 drinks. It's a little expensive than our average date night but the portions were great :)

Extremely friendly staff and amazing service. The ambiance in honestly immaculate and the food is top notch. Brought a few friends and they made us feel comfortable ordering from the menu even while some did not know what to order. We got there after hours and they still made space for us. - the owners are great people and have prepared a menu that is not only delicious, but also photogenic and eye appealing. Everyone left happy and full. The restaurant in gorgeously decorated.- 10/10 recommend.
