    My partner and I took our 2 year old there for dinner on Saturday night and had a great experience. We have previous been to the st kilda location and was excited to have one closer to home. The food was AMAZING the staff were so friendly and attentive even going the extra mile to give my son some free ice cream on the way out. We appreciated that it felt like a mature environment whilst also welcoming for kids. Will definitely be back!

    We had the most delightful lunch at Lulo & we felt the family owners bent over backwards to make our experience enjoyable. The service was meticulous, offering descriptions of family recipe dishes & new taste suggestions to try. The Indian Columbian/South American influences combined many ingredients, all fresh daily, & subtle flavours to enjoy. We will definitely be back & would not hesitate to recommend this interesting bar/restaurant, with the most friendly service you can find.
