    Wonderful dining experience as always. When visiting Palm Springs LuLu is my first choice. They usually have a very affordable multi-course menu to choose from. The food is always great. The restaurant is very clean and staff are friendly.

    Good food, good service and well priced. My husband had the ribs which he loved and it was very generous portion. I had the meatloaf which was light and delicious with the mushroom sauce.
