Food was really good. Got the steak nachos as an appetizer. It was really good. We sat outside so there were some birds doing fly bys and some insects. But that’s what you get when you sit outside. Beer was great.

We had dinner here as a recommendation from others and it was amazing. There were five of us celebrating my son and father-in-laws’ birthdays and Ulu did not disappoint. The food was wonderful with good sized portions. The view is stunning, and the service from the hostess, server to manager were on point. Highly recommend this place.
