    View of their patio from indoors
    Larry B.

    Unfortunately, we were seated at a dirty table after being told we had to wait 10 minutes for them to clean it. First impressions are everything! Then, after we sat down (inside), we were bothered by flies the entire time. Second impressions mean a lot as well. Anyway we ordered the Green Chili Burger, the Halibut 2 PC Fish + Chips, and a Farmstand Salad + shrimp. The green chili burger was very good, served with a roasted poblano Chile pepper. The halibut was delicious, flaky and served hot. Our friendly waitress, Paige, went out of her way to make some cocktail sauce, because they don't have any; it was perfect! The salad was also very good, and had five good sides to shrimp added. The interior is nice, simple and elegant. It's just unfortunate that we had a fly problem during our meal, and we were seated at a dirty table after we specifically waited for a clean one. Otherwise, five stars.

    Thai Steak and noodle salad.

    As expected, a beautiful spot for a restaurant and it only got better. The Thai Steak and Noodle was phenomenal. My wife raved about the Spring Tortellini, and our friends shared and enjoyed the Fish and Chips and Ahi Tacos But what made this lunch extraordinary was our server, Cassondra! She anticipated our every move, which was remarkable, and her patience and professionalism was very much appreciated. Loved this place and when we visit the Tri-Cities area again, we will be back! Thank you Cassondra!

    Soup & Salad (Cesar) & added salmon
    Ellen K.

    Very busy place but didn't have to wait too long past our reservation time. Staff were friendly & upbeat. We had a nice table by the window. The deep fried zucchini was outstanding! Loved the plank cut! I had the soup & salad ( Cesar) and added salmon. Tomato Basil soup was also outstanding and the salmon was perfectly seasoned & cooked. We also ordered the Thai Noodle Steak salad which also got rave reviews! Beautiful location on the river!

    Ruben Sandwich THE BEST!
    Rebecca G.

    Amazing location right on the Columbia!! Lu Lu is a large restaurant with a rustic and trendy vibe, cool decor highlighting their "farm to table" pride, also offering a beautiful full bar! We were greeted so friendly when we walked in... we had our small dog with us so we dined on their patio, overlooking the marina is wonderful! The views are great!our server Alicia was so nice, attentive and very helpful with menu suggestions. My husband loved the chicken and waffles and I swear I had the best Ruben sandwich Ive ever had! Served on a marble rye and toasted perfectly! Never became soggy like most... they have truly mastered their Reuben sandwich! We were visiting the Tri Cities and our family recommended coming here... so glad we came here! I highly recommend this place! Whether you're a local or passing through!!

    Champagne cocktail

    Ambiance is amazing, our server was great and very attentive. We had the pig candy appetizer we were not big fans but it seems to be popular. The shrimp asparagus risotto is so good our shrimp were not as well cooked as I like but still very tasty. The tomato basil soup is delicious. My husband had the tai noddle steak salad. Although the steak was great the salad noodle part was not to our liking. Cocktails are also excellent.

    Menu

    We came here to celebrate my friend IM 70.3 finish post race in TriCities. Lulu Craft Bar + Kitchen. It for the most part basic all American menu with burgers and steaks and seafood. Little of everything. The best part is the location right along the river off the trail path runs for miles along the river. The view is real nice and great spot if in the patio during the race see everyone coming home to the finish line. I ended up getting green chili burger and fries. Tasty. The burger was cooked perfect, loved the combination of the green chili the cheese and all worked. It nice hearty burger so getting bang for ur buck. Fries were good. Service was five stars. The gentleman on top of it the whole filling out refills without us asking. Friendly and positive vibes. If in Tri Cities area. More so here for IM race weekend. Spot check out for food.

    Chicken pot pie with greens
    Yujean H.

    It was cold outside so I wanted some comfort food-this hit the spot! It has all the yumminess of a chicken pot pie-chicken, celery, potatoes, carrots-seasoned well but the BEST part is the flaky buttery pastry crust-I ate the entire thing! Would 100% order it again.

    If you're doing a proper tour of the Tri-Cities and somehow miss Tapp'd in West Richland, you…read moredidn't just take a wrong turn... you skipped one of the best stops on the map. Tapp'd hits that rare sweet spot where it works just as well for a date night as it does for a full blown game day hangout. The headline feature is the self serve tap wall, which is basically permission to become your own bartender without the awkward small talk. When your glass runs dry, you don't wait around, you pivot. Try something new, double down on your favorite, live a little. And if beer isn't your thing, the bar staff can mix a cocktail that reminds you why bartenders exist in the first place. Now, the food. This is where people get blindsided, in a good way. The Quesabirria Tacos, Asada Street Tacos, and Taquitos de Pollo aren't just "good for a bar," they're flat out legit. The kind of food that makes you pause mid conversation and reconsider your priorities for a second. Service deserves its own shoutout. We were there on a Sunday night, and our server didn't miss a beat, checking in, keeping things moving, and somehow making it all look effortless. Worth noting: same ownership as Tri-City Taps, which explains why the formula works so well, great drinks, great food, and service that actually cares. Bottom line, if you're local, this should already be in your rotation. If you're visiting, this is one of those "don't leave town without it" spots.

    First time here. Like the premise, wish they had more beer and ciders to choose from…read more The food was very good! The service was ok as there were only 2 people working and it was very full on a Saturday afternoon. We will come back!

Always seems a tad darker than necessary, rather dated and overdue for a renovation. The Richland locations have a warmer vibe. The music playing didn't earn any kudos for a couple reasons. First, it was just at the edge of loud enough to be distracting. Second, the playlist seemed more appropriate for a much younger audience than the overwhelming majority of the clientele in the house at the time. Ambience, all in? - 3 stars. The food? She had the one-trip salad bar and said it was pretty good but nothing especially noteworthy. She said - 4 stars. Mine, meh, predictable, ok, but unremarkable bordering on forgettable. Some things were a tad salt heavy, others were seemingly unseasoned altogether. Mine - 3 stars. I opted for a baked potato. It came out seemingly over-baked because the flesh had to be carved away from the inside of the skin. It wasn't that carb-lovers baked spud, which was disappointing. When I told the manager of the great service we had received, he said he was glad to hear that. Then, I mentioned the potato and how it had come out, but instead of any acceptance, he got defensive about how "that's the way we make them here" or something to that effect, and basically dismissed my comment. Attitude? Yeah, not so much. - 2.5 stars. All in, we both felt like we should have driven the extra 15 minutes and gone to either Richland location. My bad. That's on me. - ZERO stars for my poor decision. Lesson learned. - All in - a 3 star average.

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!

I could easily see myself spending a few hours here and lounging, maybe writing or grading papers, and just enjoying the ambiance. It does have that local-pub type feel to it. Easy to find parking right out on the street. I selected the seasonal cocktails Demeter to drink. Gin is my spirit of choice, and the addition of black currants and blackberries was intriguing. The Cassis Noir De Bourgogne was the dominant flavor, rich black currant flavor from the liqueur. I do also appreciate that the drink was a very nice balance between mild tartness and mild sweetness, I could easily drink four or five in a sitting and still feel good about it. I do enjoy the terpene notes from gin and was unfortunately not able to taste them since the black currants were some dominant. The blackberries and the rosemary both struck me as there for the visual appeal more-so than the taste. If the berries were muddled more, then they too could add depth to the flavor. As they were in the mostly intact state I drank around them, a straw would not have been appropriate for the drink. I think one could cut the ice in half, it would still stay cold, and the ease of drinking would go up. I could probably also get more blackberries into my mouth for an additional sensory experience. Lastly, I did wish for more bubbles, more effervescence. Keep a neutral flavor (like carbonated soda) and let the Cassis shine.

The cocktail menu is creative and imaginative, with drinks that are just as fun as they are well-made. What really sets Blackthorne apart, though, is the people.

They create such a welcoming atmosphere that it's more than just a place to eat or grab a drink--it's a place where community happens. If you're looking for great food, excellent cocktails, and a business that truly values its customers, Blackthorne Pub is absolutely worth a visit.
