Tapas were delicious, salmon was perfect! Enjoyed a nice glass of wine and shared a couple different dishes with my wife. The atmosphere is relaxing and quaint. read more

This is an great eclectic place to have wine and Tapas. Filet, scallops and cheese plates are first class. A little pricey but worth it for the quality of the food. Great experience. Our server, Chris, was wonderful. They also served hot chocolate with alcohol during Light Up Night that was the best I ever had. Thanks for the wonderful experience. I will definitely return. read more

Excellent menu options like roasted vegetable plate, winter salad with goat cheese and almonds, baba ganoush, and filet with fig sauce. The atmosphere and music selections are charming. The wine list is comprehensive and will offer a glass or bottle that satisfies any wine drinker's palette. read more

Really loved this place. Food was VERY good. Wine was excellent too, 2013 Scaia Dei Garnatxa. Ordered the asparagus and salmon, olives, humus, filet, almonds and cheese and ham but croquettes were AMAZING. Everything was fantastic. Wine was perfect with it all. Atmosphere is a little loud but was a fun environment with great singer playing in the background. Will definitely be back!! read more

Lula has a very cool, boho vibe- it's different and cozy.. A great place to stop for a drink or two. The small plates my husband and I have tried range from olives to hummus and shrimp- all have been good- not out of this world, but good. It can turn into an expensive evening if you stick around but for happy hour or while waiting for your reservation elsewhere, Lula is great- BTW: my husband RAVED about his "extra dirty" martini, best one he's had! read more

Exquisite food, great drinks, ambiance amazing, you walk in and you are greeted and feel like you are with friends. Quaint and cozy. Music is perfect for the ambience. The crowd is enlightening. Will definitely come back! read more

Went to Lulas for the first time it will be my last.Very expensive. I had the soba noodles and short rib. The noodles could fit in the palm of my hand and were cold. The short rib was 1/8 inch thin . I also had the lamb chops for 17.95. They also were 1/8 inch thick if that and were dry. first and last visit. read more

Went here a few weeks ago, and was very disappointed with all four dishes we ordered. Maybe we're supposed to just order wine and enjoy the ambiance, both of which are nice? The only high point of the visit was due to the Cold Asian Noodles. When our waitress noticed we'd barely touched the huge heap of tasteless and tough pasta, she offered to remove it from our tab. read more

Lula's website was under construction, so there was minimal info online. I'm not sure if this was a temporary host issue, or ongoing, but they really need to fix this. The website did not have their regular menu displayed, or a wine/beer list, but it advertised a "weekend prix fixe menu." I inquired about this when I called (this was on a Friday), and the host confirmed it. Lula doesn't take reservations, but the host said we shouldn't have a problem finding a table, but she took my number, so they could set aside some space for us if they got busy. She was friendly, and when I asked a question she did not know the response to, she called me back within 2 minutes with an answer. Once seated (right away,) I inquired about the prix fixe menu options that I had discussed earlier with the hostess, and our waitress told us that that was from Valentine's Day weekend last month, and was inadvertently left on their website. That was a disappointment, since tapas restaurants typically leave us feeling hungry, so we thought that it would be a great option for dinner. The hostess on the telephone had been so helpful, but I was surprised that she was not notified that the prix fixe menu was not still happening, after a month. The wine list was okay. It would have been nicer to have more variety, and more higher quality wines (if I am going to a wine bar, I expect to have some really great selections.) The wines by the glass were pretty unimpressive (I realize that wines by the glass are typically $10-15 store price bottles, so this wasn't a surprise; however, for a wine bar, I would have expected more options for people to try something nice.) They had some decent wines by the bottle, but nothing spectacular. I realize restaurant wines are usually about 3-4 times what you would pay in a wine shop, but again, for the price, I would have expected more variety in high quality wines. They had some representation of popular Napa Valley wineries such as Duckhorn and Rombauer, but it would have been nice to see more varietals, like Zinfandels and Super Tuscans. I must note, if you don't see any wine that you like, they have a very reasonable corkage fee of $10. Since the prix fixe menu was not happening, we ordered a few tapas for our table to share. I know that I can't compare real Spanish tapas to the much smaller and more expensive American version, so as far as that goes, Lulas was pretty standard for American "tapas" when it comes to price, portion, and well, value. But we were really hoping for the prix fixe, since we were coming for dinner, not just a snack. I just wish that the website (and host I spoke with) had mentioned that ordering tapas a la carte was the only option, since the advertised dinner special for the weekend was from last month. I love cheese, and the cheese platter was a big disappointment. The hot boursin cheese was good, but the rest of the cheese was pretty bland. I was surprised to see annatto-colored mild cheddar cheese, and a rather boring Swiss. I expected more locally-sourced or at least more interesting cheeses that varied in intensity (e.g. a nice soft cheese, such as a Brie/Camembert, or maybe a blue cheese.) For the price, it was simply not worth it, and I wouldn't order it again. The meatballs were average; they were presented nicely, and the price was not bad, but they weren't that flavorful. The plantain nachos were okay; our table was divided on that one. The dates wrapped in bacon were good, but very small portions. The carrot ginger soup was very good, and it was a nice amount. Overall, we had fun, and the service was friendly enough, but we were disappointed in not having the prix fixe menu (which is apparently my phrase of the day!) when it was clearly advertised on the website. Our meals, including drinks, came to $27 per person, and two of us still felt a little hungry when we left. So, not that atypical of a tapas place, but just know what to expect. But Lula's has a nice vibe and comfortable, lounge-typed seating. I really want this place to succeed, so I would recommend that they, first off, fix and update their website. In this age of technology, the impression of a restaurant begins before a customer sets foot (or doesn't) in a restaurant, so presenting yourself well is very important. I would also recommend adding more veg options. The cheese platter needs a complete revamp. I am more than willing to spend some money to try good cheeses, but the cheddar and Swiss seemed, well, kind of like Kraft. The location and vibe are great selling points. It's nice for a drink and a snack, but as of now, I wouldn't consider it to be a real option for me to return for an actual dinner. I am hoping that they add more menu options (especially more vegetarian ones) so that it could suffice as dinner for meat and plant eaters alike. I think if they offer more variety of dishes that are a bit more filling, they could have a really good thing going. read more

Used to be our favorite place for drinks and dinner. We have been there once a month since it originally opened. We may go back for drinks but not for food. The staff is nice, the drink selection is decent but the food on the last three occasions was over cooked (citrus fish bites) or just off (noodles and shrimp and grits). read more

This is our date night favorite! Lula has a wonderful selection of wines and small plates. The curried carrot soup is something I always look for on the menu. When they have it it sells out quickly because it is so delicious. read more

My husband and I tried this place the other night. We had never been to a tapas bar before, and we'll try anything once. I'm glad we went! We started with the antipasti plate, and since we couldn't decide between the fig toastas and the smoked salmon (I can't remember the dish name), we ordered both. After we demolished the plates, we actually had room for dessert, so I ordered the tiramisu for us to share. I was impressed that the owner was taking the time to actually chat with diners (most of whom sound like regulars, always a good sign), and he readily gave his advice when my husband was unsure of which spirit to drink with dinner. The ONLY reason this place didn't receive five stars is because there are two steps in front of the building that someone in a wheelchair can find intimidating. But because I had a companion, we got in with no further problems. I know that we'll be back in the near future. read more

Since my last review was turned down by yelp lets try again; It's been a while since we ventured to Sewickley for a meal, best way to describe Lola is an over priced version of Ave B but with less than perfect preparation and very few local choices. Server was surprised there was such a thing as a "red zinfandel" so obviously the pairing question was a bad one. Appetizers were OK, We enjoyed the ambiance, place was dead for Saturday night. left most of the food on our plates, left a small tip and went home. read more

I live downtown and I traveled to Sewickley and dined at this restaurant. I have eaten at various restaurants in Sewickley all which are fabulous but Lula did not meet the standards of the surrounding restaurants. The food is very average and highly expensive, 30% over priced to the realistic value. The atmosphere made me feel uncomfortable and the servers were very rude. I recommend other restaurants such as Vivo, the Sewickley Hotel, or the Sharp Edge. Overall, not a pleasant experience. There are great places downtown, as well as around Sewickley to enjoy. Hope to help! read more

Great atmosphere and friendly people. Quick service. Great location in Sewickley village. Would definitely recommend.

I'm not usually a tapas fan, if I order a meal I actually want more than three bites of it. This place is the exception to the rule. I have eaten here several times, with my wife and friends. The food is fantastic, portions are better than most tapas restaurants. The atmosphere is ok, I'm not a fan of sitting on make shift benches or backless stools. The interior could use some updating. read more

Consort and I went on a rainy nite and it was really cool. The tapas were very tasty & we enjoyed the wine. The atmosphere makes it feel comfortable and cozy. Plus the server was fantastic. For my first time there I enjoyed it very much. The pork tacos were delightful. read more

Food was moderate, it tasted good to the point that I could have gotten the same quality as the pizza Roma down the road. The decor is intriguing. The waitress was polite, but my meal took longer than the others in my party. read more

Enjoyed a great night with friends. Cozy and intimate. We had apps-excellent. Drinks were pricey,. But overall A plus rating.

The owner took time to introduce himself and made a fuss over us. Great service and great food

Took my wife for tapas on a Monday night. Walked in and wasn't sure if it was self seating. The waiter (maybe owner) was in the back for a few minutes so we stood there kind of awkwardly. After he came out we were offered to pick any open table. We tried a corner and then changed our minds and moved to the bar. We shared 6 tapas while I sampled the riojas. My wife asked for sangria which the bartender made on the spot. The wines were decent but unremarkable the sangria was excellent for something whipped up on request. Most of our tapas were fantastic. The cheese plate and olive plate were great values. The lamb chops lived up to expectations and the roasted vegetables exceeded them. I would say the pork bellies were ok but difficult to eat. The scallops were cooked well and I liked the flavor but the tomato sauce overpowered the pistachio sauce leaving me wondering why they were paired. My wife got a lemon cake for dessert and it was much better than I anticipated. Light and airy with the right balance of flavors. Overall we will be coming back and recommending to friends. read more
