Fish tacos
Sara L.

This place is absolutely adorable and every little girl's dream. As you walk on, you're immediately greeted by an en explosion of florals lining the walls and ceiling. We happened to be there during happy hour (score!). The prices are quite reasonable at $10 per glass for happy hour wines, and they have a better selection than most places I've been to. The elote fritters, salad, and my fish tacos were all very good. My only complaints were that the salad had onions and my friend said it didn't have them last time she went, and I wish my fish tacos had a bit more fish. It was pretty quiet when we first arrived but it got very loud by the time we left. Otherwise, food and drinks all arrived quickly and exactly as we ordered them. I officially love this place.

Holiday decor
Dee Renè L.

Happy hour review & holiday drink options Solid wine options for happy hour! The regions were decent and it's not their top selections of course, but you get a solid option at a discount so that's a win! $10 glasses The cocktails are batched which is a disappointment. I find they always have that batched taste to it and as a person with a lot of allergies it's hard to order something because you can't do substitutions. However, I Did enjoy the mulled wine old fashion. Staff was friendly and helpful. It's a bit odd to order from a QR code when seated at the bar but I'm sure that's useful for tables. The bartender was available to answer questions as needed. Recommend the fries! Sauce on the side because I think the sauce comes down to a taste preference and your fries will be drenched in it. It's somewhat like a mayo based secret sauce taste to it. Like what u might find on a fast food burger. Enjoyed but glad I got it on the side.

Went at Christmas time and had a blast! Had such fantastic cocktails and can't wait to try the new seasonal ones. Definitely need to go back as soon as possible! Great for a girls night!

Ashlie J.

Great service and the back patio is such a vibe! I want to go back before the fall event ends and check out the fall cocktails. Lulu's is like a hidden oasis in U Street that I didn't know existed for far too long! Stopped by for brunch and ordered the combo--Chilaquiles Funfetti cake Vino Verde All in one delicious deal! And yes... I'm already planning my return for Winetoberfest (Sept 24-Nov 9)--pumpkin espresso martinis and bourbon apple slushies, anyone?

Chill spot for a drink and bites; I tried Lulu's for the first time with a friend during their holiday pop-up a few weeks ago. Loved the selection of seasonal drinks and snacks to accompany. Order using QR code at your table. Servers are still checking in on you during your visit.

Went with a group of five and sat in the back outdoor seating. It did rain but luckily they have an awning that they can open or close. It's gorgeous when it's open and nice out! Even in the heat, there are fans running to help move the air around. The ambiance is cute and cozy! Our table consisted of single chairs and the other half was a bench full of cozy pillows. All the staff were very friendly. We ordered through the QR code, which was very efficient. The whipped feta paired very well on the perfectly toasted bread!! The chicken taquitos were crunchy and flavorful. It seems like you can't go wrong with anything here. We also ordered a few white wine bottles and they were all delicious. I'd go back! The ambiance is lovely and this is the perfect spot for a date night or chill gathering with friends. It's a great spot to grab drinks and food!

I absolutely love the vibe here. If you find yourself on Ust and your first plan doesn't go well. Lulu will save the day. Better yet, just plan to start here. Super quick service, staff is amazing. The food is consist. What more can you ask for?!

Outdoor patio

We went here for Sunday music bingo and honestly it was the BEST time. My friend and I actually both got bingo and she received a tiny bottle of rose and I won a $15 gift card (which I'm very excited to use soon). We got a bottle of white wine to share during the game and it was so delicious--I wish I could remember the name because genuinely it was so tasty!! The service is all done through the toast app/on your phone, but everything comes out super quick. We got our fries within five minutes. And they were so tasty. The sauce is EVERYTHING! We wanted to order another but didn't because we were trying to hold ourselves accountable hahaha. I want to try more of their menu! I love how Lulu's has so many fun events and little activities throughout the week. It's a great way to meet people and create a little community. Plus the vibes are awesome because they have a floral theme with flowers hanging from the walls and ceilings. It makes for the cutest and girliest spot--I love it! I cannot wait to come back.

Chicken Taquitos (3)

A wonder space to enjoy good drinks and good food. Sat on their back patio multiple times at the bar and it's always been lovely. Their $25 brunch special is amazing, an entree, dessert, and brunch drink. My husband and I can go and share!

Grilled Chicken Club was really good and filling. Mildly spicy sauce on the side was a good choice for me
Kelly M.

Pros: very peaceful and pretty spacious back patio. Happy hour until 7 on week nights. Good food (tacos and grilled chicken sandwich) Con: our heater wasn't working. Not the hugest selection of wines by the glass. I hadn't been to the space since it was the previous wine bar a long time ago. This place isn't so fancy like that place, but the patio is definitely a win on a nice day, especially with the happy hour!

Time Machine Rouge and Lambrusco Rose. Lini 910. Italy.

I'm in my wine phase. I was eager to go to a wine bar on a recent trip to DC. We had originally tried to go to another shop, however, they did not update their hours, so we ended up coming to this lovely gem. I was so happy this super charming spot was nearby. It has a really cute aesthetic that will look amazing in all your Yelp photos. I loved the holiday decorations. My fiancé and I ordered two glasses of wine here. He got a glass of the Time Machine Rouge that was a special of the night and I ordered a glass of the Lambrusco Rose Lini 910 Italy. We were seated at a large table where we played some card games. It's a wonderful spot to meet up with friends and get good wine. I loved both of our drinks. They also had a lot of great food offerings on their menu. I'd definitely return and recommend this cute spot.

Went with a few of my girls and it was such a fun place to grab some apps and have a few drinks. Definitely worth the visit and the interior was very welcoming and cozy. Food and service were both great as well. Highly recommend!

Funfetti cake
Maria L.

Cute place to enjoy drinks with friends and have a nice light bite too. The food is totally shareable! My friends and I ordered the whipped ricotta, chicken taquitos and the Caesar salad which came the cucumbers and avocado . Yummy!! We also ordered the mimosa kit $40, totally worth it! Service was good and they made sure we had water! We also got a slice of cake which my other friends enjoyed. The frosting wasn't my favorite. But everyone who knows me knows I'm not a sweet person, more salty!

Not to be confused with Free State Distillery in Upper Marlboro (though many also call it Arthur…read moreWheeler Spirits haha), this place is located just off of the main street in chinatown, and it's surprisingly lowkey. It's a basement bar with a bit of a dive vibe, but it's hard to ignore the nautical, blue crab theme throughout. Turns out that one of the owners is a Marylander, which is cool to see reflected in the decor in a place in dc, even though it is next door. They have a happy hour and they have a great variety of drinks in general. It's bring-your-own-food (BYOF) and there are a bunch of delicious looking Asian spots nearby, including upstairs. It didn't start getting crowded until closer to 10, which, as I said, is surprising for this part of town to me. Everywhere in Chinatown is not going to be packed and busy, and this place is here to remind you of that. Stop by if you're looking for a more chill vibe. Staff are pretty cool.

For $45 per person, the all-you-can-eat experience feels like a really solid deal considering how many protein options and side dishes you get. They start you off with a variety of banchan (side dishes), including a salad with this super tasty dressing that had the perfect little spicy kick. For the BBQ, we kicked things off with the spicy bulgogi and butter garlic shrimp, while the others tried the pork belly (I don't eat pork). Later we ordered the steak, spicy brisket, and grilled squid, which were all delicious. The spicy brisket especially was a standout for me. The guys also ordered two rounds of fried dumplings that looked amazing, but since they contain pork, I had to sit those out. I'd love to see Chadol add a veggie dumpling option to the menu! As for the sides, the kimchi and cold glass noodles were both hits at our table, and of course we all added white rice. The "mashed potatoes" though? Definitely more like potato salad and unfortunately very bland. On the other hand, the cheese corn costs extra but is 1000% worth adding. For drinks, the guys enjoyed the Woody Old Fashioned while I had a mezcal margarita-style cocktail that was smoky and refreshing. We also ordered one of the chicken options but never received it and eventually just gave up on it. One of the coolest parts of the experience is the ordering system. Most meats are ordered directly from a machine at your table, and the food comes out quickly on this conveyor belt-style setup which was honestly so fun. Drinks and side dishes are ordered through the servers. The atmosphere was lively and energetic without feeling overwhelming. The restaurant is actually much larger inside than I expected, with a modern setup that works well for smaller groups. That said, I didn't really notice tables for larger parties, so I'm not sure how they accommodate groups bigger than 6 people. Service started off a little rough because our server wasn't very attentive, but after I called it out, he definitely stepped it up and things improved. Overall, Chadol was a really good experience and absolutely worth the price. The 1.5-hour seating limit makes sense too, both to keep things moving and give others a chance to enjoy the experience. I'd definitely go back!

I ate here around a year ago and reviewed them on google.

However, the service from the bartender as great. He was very knowledgeable on the drinks and the food. Unfortunately, I did not get a picture of the drinks. But I ordered a smoked margarita which had a great taste. The ambiance was wonderful. It was very aesthetically please. From the flowers on the ceiling to the rooftop overlooking the Capitol it was great. The roof top provided a chill vibe with low music. It could be a great place for a date night or just a place to go to meet up with friends. I 100% recommend.

I think they take reservations but we were able to grab a bar spot. Are drinks pricey? What do you think? It's a cocktail bar in DC. The drinks we tried were pretty tasty, even the mezcal one which I thought was a refreshing take. The wall shows some of the drinks on the menu and the ingredients/glass it comes in which I thought was a nice touch. Bartenders were friendly but not too chatty as they were super busy but you never waited long for a drink. The bourbon drink with the whipped honey was our favorite but the gin drink that was pink was also fantastic.

It tasted like a rainbow--just bright and with a really delicious after taste. I should have stopped at the rose but after my trying my friend's, i had to have one! We initially came for happy hour, but moved to the cocktail menu. The hh was a bit limited, but the drinks were priced overall pretty reasonably for the area. My one complaint is the wine glasses were so teeny. Overall though, I would recommend this bar. Bonus: cheese balls when you sit down! I believe there is also a limited food menu (think nachos) for the after work or late night crowd.
