Wow! A phenomenal experience from start to finish!…read more My fiancé and I had been following Aub's Lounge on Instagram for a while now, and were excited to finally get the chance to check it out! We stopped by here because we saw that they were hosting Trivia Night & we were craving soup/banana bread. All I can say is...YUM. I got the curry and it was literally some of the best curry that I have ever had. There was not a single drop left in my bowl, by the time I was done with it. I screenshotted a photo from their Instagram to attach to this review, because I forgot to take a photo of it, before I started eating it. Absolutely delicious. My fiancé got the blueberry lemon banana bread and the zuppa toscana soup! He LOVED it. Oh, we also got to listen to some killer spoken poetry in between trivia rounds. Heartfelt, raw, & real. I love how the entire inside is decorated-moody, dark-colored walls, warm Edison lightbulb string lights, & gorgeous art on the walls. I took a photo for reference. Super cozy. Can't wait to go back for poetry night. Also, "penciling" this place in as a great future study spot. Thanks for the awesome experience & yummy food! We had a wonderful time!

Went to Lu Lu's for the first time and had an amazing experience with a friend…read more Seared Halibut with Risotto: The halibut was very good! It was easy to cut through (falls apart easily). The squash with it is fresh! I loved the creamy texture of the risotto. I haven't had halibut in many years! I loved the 3 dips with the house-made potato crisps. My favorite dip was the smoked steelhead. The crisps are very crunchy! Baked Feta Cheese w/ Honey Drizzle: The scone like pastries are really good! Super fluffy texture. Add the feta on top then an olive on the cheese, and take a bite! The warm pastry with the creamy sweet honey feta cheese and savory olive blends so well together. It's an amazing sharable appetizer and I highly recommend it. Apple Pie with Vanilla Ice Cream: The rich flavors of the pie are delicious! The apples are cooked perfectly and not too crunchy or mushy. The cinnamon isn't over powering the whole pie, but enough to know that it's there. My friend loves apple pie and rated it a 10 out of 10! The vanilla ice cream tasted good, but if you have ice cream outside on the patio be sure to eat it before it melts. It was 98 degrees. The hostess at the front when I walked in is so welcoming! The food was served at a good pace. Definitely a place worth visiting.

We tried coming on Friday 8/21 but you have to book a reservation so decided to hit this place on the way back...should have went elsewhere. For how highly rated and recommended this place was...I wish we would have spent our money somewhere else. I ordered the shrimp risotto which was excellent but my husband ordered the fish and chips. My food arrived hot but his arrived cold. We told the server and she had the kitchen remake it but it took awhile and I had practically finished my food when his arrived and the fries were still look warm. The food itself was just okay. The restaurants mood was like any other restaurant I didn't see anything special about the ambience however the view as you can see was cool.

And somehow, even after a 4-hour drive, it still tastes just as amazing! It's one of the best options if you're trying to stay lower carb (okay... lower-ish carbs), no sugar, and especially if you deal with hypoglycemia. This dish just gets it. Now about the building--if you've been around for a while, you probably remember when it was Heidi Haus on Court Street. I went in there many times, and it was such a sweet, charming place. Honestly, it feels like the perfect spot for Magill's now. The character of the building really adds to the whole experience. The only thing I'd love to see improved is the service. The ladies who work there clearly have a lot of experience, but sometimes the interaction can feel a bit routine or lacking warmth. A little more friendliness and engagement would really take the experience to the next level and match how great the food is. And I mean... my poor mom ordered an orange juice and it showed up not even cold. That's one of those small details that really shouldn't be missed. Thank you, Magill's, for always hitting the mark with the food!

BTW: nice menu boards :-) list of dog options and stuff on the one side, burgers and stuff on the other. I'm generally not a fan of jumbo-sized Chicago dogs because they wreck the topping ratios so I went with the emerald green - not sure how caramelized onions, bacon, and jalapeno cream cheese make anything emerald or green but it eats well and waffle fries will add some heft (choice of ketchup or fry sauce) dog arrives in a compostable box with a paper wrap. 1/4 pound sausage is good and beefy and likely kosher unlike the bacon bits; onions were fully caramelled and soft and flavory but the cream cheese needs to be more jalopy. slightly miffed that corn dogs are only a Monday thing but they are and other than that it's hard to complain about the product so I won't.

The girl working there saw me and rolled her eyes but says "I'll be with you in 5 mins". Ok cool. Not sure what the eye rolling was about but ok. 11 rolls around and so I go up to order and she's giving me the death stare and I'm like "is everything ok?" She says "SPEAK UP". And I'm like "wow what's with the attitude?" She says again "SPEAKUP!" At this point I'm like this person woke up on the wrong side of the bed or something so I tell her to turn her music down she had on and she says "ITS POLICY WE ARE REQUIRED TO KEEP ON". And I ask "lady why all the attitude? I literally just want a hotdog" and she says "IM PREGNANT!" Umm ok. I left because wth was that. I hope the owner reads this and follows up cause that girl is seriously crazy and did not seem like she wanted to work and took that out on a customer.

Action shot!

Best little secret in the Tri-Cities!! The food was AMAZING!! The workers were so friendly and the presentation was beautiful. I was a little hesitant to try it as I didn't know what to expect. I drove past it for months while going to and from work and thought it was like a "taco truck" type place but wanted to give it a try. I'm so glad I did. You can tell everything is home-made and nothing frozen or packaged. The food was hot when it reached our table and the flavors dance on your tongue. Unique side dishes like cucumbers with dill, sweet potatoes, their tangy baked beans and hand cut fries all were delicious! (I tried my friend's). Don't like barbecue or burgers? They also have beautiful Mexican plates. Five different homemade sauces compliment any dish. Can't wait to bring my friends when they come to town! read more
