   All in a very good experience but it is Rose our Server who made it special. She was juggling a few tables but she is so sweet. Next day we where outside walking and she made a point to come out and say high and even help take our picture. Rose made a very big impression on us for the restaurant, town and restoring our faith in people who make a difference to us and I am sure everyone she has served!

   There were four in our group and we all were very pleased! The salads, we had two different ones, were wonderful! Three of us tried the crab and avocado, delicious! Dessert was also great!

   It’s BYOB! This is probably noted somewhere, but I didn’t think to look. My wife and I were both really looking forward to a glass of wine at the end of a hard work week and were quite quite disappointed to find out that wasn’t going to happen. We can take a bottle next time, but it did get us off on the wrong foot. The food was very good, but seemed a bit pricey given that we had no wine (or desert) on the bill. I’d add another dollar sign to the rating. We were sitting up front, directly in front of two doors open to the street. The extra ventilation was a plus (‘cause, Covid) but it didn’t help with the noise as much as I would have liked. I could barely hear my wife across the table and the noise was coming from the dining room behind me, not the street. Tables were pretty close together. Service was pleasant but fair to slow.

   We informed waitress of wife’s allergy to mammalian (beef/pork) meat and products prior to ordering due to Alpha-Gal syndrome. Ordered chicken Marsala, wife specifically requested server inform chef to confirm food was safe for her. 15 minutes later food arrived and looked excellent with no comment on issue with food. Wife took couple of bites when the chef came over to check on us. She expressed her gratitude on having no beef in preparation for Marsala dish. His response was, “this is made with beef broth”. Imagine our frustration!!!! Chef tried to make it right but damage was done. Night over , Benadryl at home to make sure no impact from potential issue. Very disappointed.

   Chicken was tough and after two bites, could not finish eating it. Calamari was chewy. Coconut shrimp had very little coconut and was over cooked. Filet was very good. Desserts were good. Waitress, Rose, was very good. In the future, we will dine at other restaurants.

   We were attending a show at the Broadway theater in Pitman. Had reservations at 6. We were promptly seated and our drink order was taken. Started with a cheese board for the table, which was great. All our entrees came out as ordered and they did not disappoint. Great staff, food and setting.

    Took my wife out for dinner to Sweet Lulas. I ordered the Pork tenderloin and it was very good. My wife’s penne vodka with chicken, not so much. The chicken was rubbery and not good. We didn’t feel like waiting for another dish so she pushed the chicken off to the side and ate the rest. It’s a $6 up charge for the chicken. I asked if they could just take the $6 off the order but the server told me the owner refused and said there was nothing wrong with the chicken. That tells me all I need to know about this place and we wont be back. I’ve never been to a restaurant that wouldn’t try in some way to make things right. ✌🏻

    This restaurant is located directly across the street from Pitman Theater. Great location to have a nice meal before the show. Do not make your dinner reservations any later then 6:15 if your going to the show .

    We liked Sweet Lula's! The food choices were varied and flavorful. We went on a busy Saturday evening at 6pm before a show, so it was crowded and service was probably slower than usual. We opted out of dessert (I was looking forward tot he blueberry bread pudding) because of timing. A 5:30 reservation would have been better. The only other comment, one my whole party of 4 agreed upon, was that the food was a bit on the salty side. But it was still very good and we hope to return.

    I ordered the Duck. It was very good. I didn't like the fact that we got cold dinner rolls. I like warm bread and dipping sauce. Also, the entre was served without a salad. I feel for the prices that you are charging, that the dinner should come with warm bread ( along with olive oil or dipping sauce of some sort) and a salad. There are so many restaurants that are on this same price range that do offer this. I do like the fact that it was a being your own bottle.

    Still as delightfully delicious as ever. If you haven’t had the pleasure of dining at Sweet Lula’s, you are missing out on some of the most superbly prepared dishes available in South Jersey. If you haven’t been back for awhile, book a table now and don’t hesitate to order the grouper and shrimp or the filet as they are two of the most flavorful dishes to enjoy.

    Our first time at Sweet Lulas was a great experience. We came before seeing a show at the Pitman Theater and it was perfect. Great food, great atmosphere, wonderful waitstaff, and perfect location to the theater. Will definitely be back.

    Dining here is always a pleasure. The food and service are excellent! We heard about the specials that were being served this past weekend and we just had to come in and taste them. The broccoli and cheese soup was very good and had chunks of broccoli in it. The lobster Mac and cheese was fabulous. It had such good flavor and the breadcrumb topping was toasted to perfection. Do yourself a favor and dine here if you have not tried it yet. You will not be disappointed!

    I know service has been impacted by Covid but this was a horrible experience, and we will never return. To start with the hostess, who is also the owner, was indifferent and rude, like we were bothering her. It took 10 minutes for her to even ask our name and then another 10 minutes to seat us even though the table we were seated at was vacant. The sever made a brief appearance to take our order and we never saw her again. She never even offered us drinks. We had no choice to drink water. When it was time for the check, we had to ask another server and then a busboy before we could get our check. The menu was limited, and the food was just ok, nothing special. The restaurant was packed because of a show across the street but if they do not have the staff to provide a good dining experience then they should limit the amount of people they attempt to serve

    Amazing place for dinner with family, friends, or your "honey" BYOB, food is just simply amazing, staff is extremely friendly and accommodating. They will make sure you get to the theater on time, and any suggestions they make for appetizers, dinner or dessert, go for it!! they're never wrong! Lula herself and Anthony her husband and chef, will always stop by your table and check in on you. Highly recommend! It's our favorite place in Pitman!!!

    We really enjoyed our dinner at Sweet Lula"s. When we first walked in, it was extremely loud as it was packed with people, probably because there was a show that night at the theater across the street. The hostess brought us to a table upstairs, which we didn't know they had, where we sat at a window overlooking the street below. The ambience was much better there. The food was excellent except they were out of the pork tenderloin, which had been a first choice for dinner that was being looked forward too. All in all a great experience.
