RANDOMLY found this place when my mom and I were in the mood for a place we've never been and to eat something we don't eat often. It's "hole in the wall" and tucked away but don't let the location steer you away. The food is so GOOD and the people working there are so nice. While we waiting on our food (we got it to-go because there are just a few stools in there) they kept checking on us. The crab cakes are literally ALL crab--definitely worth the price

I ordered via DoorDash but the food arrived still warm & the salmon was delicious! I love the way it was cooked & the collards had a little kick which I liked!

Lulu's has been an absolute culinary lifesaver during these challenging times of COVID, and my recent takeout experience was nothing short of a 5-star delight. The Mac and Cheese, Candied Yams, and Fried Chicken that I ordered provided a comforting and flavorsome escape from the monotony of lockdown. As the world grappled with the pandemic, Lulu's became a beacon of hope for those seeking a taste of normalcy and a sense of comfort. Their commitment to offering delectable Southern cuisine remained unwavering, even in the face of adversity. The Mac and Cheese, an epitome of creamy, cheesy indulgence, was a warm hug in food form. It exuded rich and satisfying flavors that could only be described as sheer perfection. Pairing it with the Candied Yams, a sweet and savory side dish, was a stroke of genius, creating a harmonious blend of flavors that danced on my taste buds. And then there was the Fried Chicken, a crispy and succulent masterpiece that had me craving every last bite. It was a testament to Lulu's dedication to quality and their artistry in crafting Southern classics. Lulu's managed to adapt seamlessly to the challenges posed by the pandemic, offering efficient and safe takeout service that allowed customers to enjoy their exceptional cuisine in the comfort and safety of their homes. In these trying times, Lulu's provided a ray of hope, a reminder of the joys of life's simple pleasures - a delicious meal shared with loved ones, even if it meant over a video call. In summary, Lulu's is a 5-star culinary sanctuary that has not only survived but thrived during the challenges of COVID. Their Mac and Cheese, Candied Yams, and Fried Chicken are a testament to the quality and heart that they pour into their Southern fare. Whether you're enjoying their food during a pandemic or under normal circumstances, Lulu's is a must-visit for anyone seeking a taste of Southern comfort and a bit of respite from life's challenges. I can't wait to return and enjoy more of their mouthwatering offerings, hopefully in a more carefree world.

This is must stop for me every time I'm in Charlotte. We went early for lunch to miss the rush. It didn't disappoint I also had their homemade strawberry lemonade not pictured.

This review matters more than my first! The true indication of a good restaurant is if they are consistent as the first time you fell in love. 2 years later, and second visit last night 5/4/2023, they slayed my palette 6 ways from Sunday! We were back in town visiting family, and you know I had to come thru! Signage is bigger this time,it's nice to see progress with this gem. Now, let's get down to the food deets. Crab Fries-Still as delicious as the first time, we added 6 grilled shrimp that were perfectly cooked and tore up shop. 12 PC Wings-Honey Old Bay sauce and a perfectly hard fried wing that was juicy in the center. This sauce officially needs to be bottled and sold! Catfish-Fried and Grilled both delicious, especially when dipped in their special sauce. I could have used some fresh lemons for the grilled, but it was still flaky, flavorful, and fresh. Sides Seafood Mac-This is probably the only thing I wouldn't order again. It's not the flavor profile.. that is spot on, it just needs more seafood to be called a Seafood Mac and Cheese. Collard Greens-Slap your mamma worthy, Thanksgiving table worthy!! Yams-Texture was on point, sweetness was just right and I'm not mad that it touched my Mac and cheese on my plate. That bite was another level! Now, for the first time we got dessert, the sweet girl at the register suggested it when I asked if we missed anything, lol. Sweet potato cheesecake-Hot Danggggggg. I can't believe how freaking amazing this was! Delicious perfectly made sweet potato pie filling baked on top of a creamy cheesecake that was so creamy with the right amount of tart meets sweet. Yallll this dessert is what southern dreams are made of. Carrot cake-I am a huge carrot cake fan in general so this was a no-brainer for me. I was not READYYY!! Moist cake that was perfectly spiced, but what I loved the most is that you got bites of raisins and carrots that were so small yet made a huge impact in your mouth. Topped with buttercream frosting, definitely top 3 best I have had. Lulu's, you have my heart and loyalty when we are in town. All that goodness ran us $103.00 this go round, which is a fraction of what it's worth!!! See you next time!
