    We brought our daughter and friends to celebrate her 12th birthday. Our server was so sweet to the girls. He recommended fun cocktails for them and brought out chocolate cake with a huge candle. The food was delicious but his service was exceptional! Thank you!

    Our first time at LaLaLu and we can't say enough about the quality and taste of the food. Every course was excellent. Our waiter was excellent and the ambience was fun and enjoyable. The only suggestion would be for the person greeting guests at the door to actually be friendly and welcoming. The greeter barely said 2 words to us. Although the drinks were excellent, the bar did not have rye whiskey which one of our guests requested. After the meal we spoke to the bar-tender and she said they actually did have 1 bottle but our waiter was not aware. Overall, we had a wonderful dinner!

    ABSOLUTELY the worst meal I've had in years. Sat down at 6:15. Didn't even get our appetizer until 7:30. Took almost 2 hours to get 2 drinks delivery. I got the Filet and I had 2 bites and couldn't take another. The ravoli on top was cold. My cauliflower mashed were ice cold. Bill was $171. 3 drinks .. 1 cheese appetizer - sea bass ( husband's meal) and my filet. I have NO issue paying $$ for a good meal and service but that was overall the WORST experience we've had in the 30 years we've been going out to eat together. A dinner reservation at 6:15 shouldn't have your main course show up at 8 pm. NEVER again and I would NEVER recommend this restaurant to anyone.
