Review Lula - Santa Monica

Jackie Gragnola

Got the spicy grilled shrimp burrito made wet with the red sauce. I liked it but I think next time I’d go with a burrito with the mole sauce which was GREAT and had a nice kick too it (not super spicy though). Love the atmosphere and the service is great! Definitely a go-to on Main Street, I think I just need to try more on the menu :)

The food is typical Mexican restaurant food that tastes great. Our waiter was very much on the ball. One slight disappointment was that they were not able to break the check up. We enjoyed a wonderful evening on the outside patio. Definitely worth checking out.

Great happy hour and margs. Staff is very friendly. Came on taco Tuesday and got the deal with two tacos and a margarita for 18$. Good deal

We are from Australia visiting family and my brother recommended we attend the restaurant. The food was delicious, staff friendly, and the place had a nice atmosphere. Later that night, I met Mack out front whilst on a walk and we had a great chat. Awesome guy and we will be back before we leave. Thanks Mate!!!

Great location and great service. Came here for dinner around 6 on a Saturday and there were plenty of tables available, no reservations needed. Their menu offers a diverse set of margaritas, including a skinny margarita. They serve great Mexican food, but they also offer meat alternatives for vegetarians or folks avoiding meat. I would come back!

One of the best Mexican restaurants I have tried in my life! Kind people, great food and a lovely place.

Some great Mexican food in a quaint atmosphere. Staff were real friendly and happy to describe the different dishes. All the food was packed with flavour and not at all greasy like some places. We were definitely happy with our choice to stop here for a quick lunch.

Great Mexican place! We stumbled upon this place while searching for dinner, to eat and get away from the cold (didn’t have warm enough cloths) and I’m so happy this is where we ended up. Completely affordable, huge size dishes and delicious food. We had the nachos with added fish and the Caesar salad. Both were the best I’ve ever had! I wish I lived here so I could come back to this place.

Have been coming here since 1992 (remember The Pelican Cafe which was in this location before). The food is really unique, while it is Mexican it has slight local twist that is really magical. I've only been disappointed once (and that is over easily 50 to 100 times being here). The food is really terrific. The drinks are wonderful (if you decide to imbibe). And there is what I call a tequila museum which is a fun little part of the restaurant to stop at and spend a little time learning about all the different tequilas at.

We had just nachos and drinks, but they were good

I had a fish taco and coconut margarita. Both were tasty just a little over priced. $8 for one tiny taco. No sides. The order, with another drink and appetizer came out to $58. The place was decorated with Dia de los Muertos decor. Very artsy and cute but I wasn't sure why the theme. It was nice though. Waitress was very friendly.

Oliver Balmer

Very good food and friendly staff.

one of our favorite restaurants in the whole wide world and the best margaritas hands down.

I work down the street, and love coming here for lunch. Really great spot to eat, on Main Street, you will not be disapointed. Tad bit pricey for my budget, so I can’t come very often, but I always love it when I do. They make a mean guacamole, very tasty (I am a biiiig guac fan). It’s a really big place, so come alone, or come with 50 ppl, there is room 🤙. The staff is very friendly, very conversational, and they have a fun ecclectic decor, also outdoor patio seating. You can also eat at the bar, if you are up for a chat - whenever I sit at the bar people always chat you up, the crowd is very friendly here also. I ate a tostada, was deliiiicciiiousss. I rcommend this place whole heartedly, come here for a happy experience - full of bright colors, fun people, and great food. Also, they make a mean drink, I usually can only have 1, if I wanna make it home 😄

Friendly environment and service. The food was authentic and delicious. We enjoyed everything we ordered. The fish tacos and mole negro were exceptional.
