I had lunch at Lulu Green and it was wonderful. The lemony lentil soup is absolutely delicious, and the Yuka fries with Harris's ketchup are so good -- such a great combination. I also want to mention how nice the to-go packaging is. The containers are sturdy, well put together, and I really appreciate how thoughtfully the food is packaged for takeout. A special shout-out to Stephanie, who has helped me during my last few visits. She is attentive, very polite, patient, and genuinely pleasant. She really knows what she's doing and makes you feel welcome and well taken care of. From what I can see, she's a very valuable employee and truly stands out. The rest of the staff is also excellent, but Stephanie deserves special recognition. I'll definitely be back! The restaurant is very clean as well! read more

Phenomenal food and I am not vegan in the least! An excellent choice for your gluten free and vegetarian and dairy free friends. I've been twice now and I'm quite confident I will be returning. The vodka pasta is sooo good and lowkey one of the best I've had in boston so far. They usually have specials so there is always something new to try. Everyone is friendly and the restaurant itself is very well designed. An additional perk, a bottle of wine is not as insane a price as other places in Boston, and the cocktails are delicious! read more

This spot is a cafe during the day and still holds much of that feel in the evening, even when converted into sit-down dining and traditional service. I HIGHLY recommend the heart of palm "crab" cake. I'm not used to crab cakes so I don't have a great way of comparing to the "real" thing, but what I can tell you is - it's really, really good. The sauce in particular stands out for adding acidity that cuts through the dense crab cake, so be sure to get a little bit of everything in each bite. The Korean lettuce wraps were also great. As soon as the plate came out, you can smell the delicious barbecue sauce. The aioli is also quite good, with more standard pickled vegetables/kimchi. The mushroom short rib sounded intriguing and was presented quite artfully, but I wouldn't order it again. It did mimic the look of meat really well, but was nowhere near as impressive or flavorful as the other dishes. We also ordered the "Taco Tuesday" special, which felt pretty average and like any other (vegan) taco you could get elsewhere. It paired well with the sauce from the heart of palm "crab" cake though! Even for 2 people, I would've been content with just the heart of palm crab cakes and Korean lettuce wraps in terms of portion sizes. read more

I had the best time at Lulu Green. The space is cozy and gives the vibe of a casual coffee shop, but it is, in fact, a full service restaurant. Staff was super helpful and accommodating. I started my brunch with a Dubai chocolate croissant and had high expectations that were blown away. The flavors melded well and had a good mix of sweet and rich - the pistachio butter was a delightful surprise. The vegan breakfast sandwich was my entree. While it wasn't my favorite thing I've had - it was slightly dry for my taste - the flavors were solid. I also got to try a yucca fry. Bomb diggity. I'll be back! read more

I really cannot understand why this place has any negative reviews. I've only ever had exceptional experiences at Lulu Green. The service is great, super friendly and attentive staff and the food is incredible. The portion sizes are large and the food is delicious and flavorful. I'm gluten free and vegan and really appreciate that they have plenty of options I can choose from. My non vegan fiancé also loves the food and is excited every time we come here. It's a small space, like most other restaurants in the big city, but it's very beautiful and cozy inside. We have literally driven up from central CT just to eat here. Highly recommend. read more

We were long-time admirers of Lulu Green on social media and it lived up to the hype! We didn't make a reservation but were seated right away, though it's a small place so seating is limited. Had a fantastic dinner- we got the "crab" cakes, Korean lettuce wraps, pasta alla vodka, and mushroom short rib. My dining partner was blown away by the texture of the short rib, made entirely of mushrooms. To drink, we had the espresso martini and a seasonal cocktail special. We will definitely be back to try the rest of the menu, including brunch! read more

I love Lulu Green! The food is consistently well presented, colorful, flavorful, and delicious! Definitely my favorite vegan restaurant in Boston. Today I went with my mom for lunch and we tried the lemony lentil soup, the crispy chick'n bowl, the avocado toast, and the triple chocolate cheezecake with a pistachio rose latte. My favorite dish of the day, despite its simplicity, was the avocado toast for that perfectly crisp thick slab of za'atar focaccia. I could happily eat a LOT of that! I enjoyed the flavor of the crispy chick'n bowl but the ratio of rice to other ingredients was high, I personally would have preferred more veg. The triple chocolate cheezecake is wildly rich and chocolatey, I could only eat a couple bites but I was pleased to learn I could take the jar home! This was my first time visiting Lulu Green for lunch, but I have been several times for brunch and dinner and it has always been delicious. We were the only people dining in for lunch while we were there, but they had a steady stream of takeout orders, and our sever was friendly and prompt. It's a small space with only a few tables but clean and bright and inviting. I highly recommend Lulu Green to vegans and non-vegans alike! read more

Likely my favorite vegan place in the Boston area, every dish has been delicious even their old fashioned is awesome, if you're vegan this place is a must, if you're not you'll def still enjoy your visit. read more

Trendy area, not a ton of parking, but we did fine on a Saturday night. Nice, looking place, looks like a small bakery or Café, but the food is to die for. We tried the meze plate, which was insanely great, and a nice Caesar salad, a very big portion. Then one of us got pasta, one of us got a chicken sandwich, and two of us got different types of steaks. Everything was so good, and the drinks were really awesome too, if pricey. Great service, can't wait to try everything else on the menu. Probably one of the top three vegan places in Boston area. read more

Far exceeded my expectations.

Decided to stop by for lunch and I'm so glad I did! This is a very cute little vegan cafe in Southie. Bright and colorful decor. Limited seating - I think there were four small tables inside and a few more outside. I ordered the avocado toast and the yuca fries. The toast was very tasty - a generous portion of avocado topped with cucumbers, pickled onions, pepitas, and cilantro. The bread was a crunchy toasted focaccia. I wish it had been a little fluffier. That's my only complaint though - I really enjoyed the balance of flavors and the different textures of the toast. The yuca fries were my favorite part of the meal! Perfectly crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, and the marinara-type sauce they came with had a nice hint of sweetness to balance out the saltiness of the fries. I will say this cafe is on the pricier side for relatively small portions. I payed $22 before tax for avocado toast and fries, which is more than I usually like to spend on a casual lunch. But the food tasted fresh and high quality so the price is definitely not enough to deter me from coming back. read more

It's a small place so I was surprised to see a hostess at a podium right at the entrance. I suppose they were trying to be different or class a casual place up a bit? Whatever. We walked to the end of the diner, which literally took 8 steps to get there and were seated close to the bathroom, which didn't impress me. I loved that everything was vegan, but the food was just average and the portions were on the small side. The honey chicken was a bit wet and tasteless, and the Shawarma Bowl was super sour and salty. The Yuka fries were ok, but the homemade ketchup that came with it was also really sour and bitter. Would I come back? Probably if I was in the area again. Maybe something else on the menu would have tasted better. But paying $19 for a burger doesn't make me want to rush back any time soon. read more

A bit disappointed with customer service in this place. Traveled very far to try the food; however on the way there we bought an iced coffee, when we walked in they said no outside drinks were allowed, they suggested we throw it out or finish it before being seated. It's unfortunate they don't have a cart to set drinks down as most places that don't allow outside drinks indoor have. We ended up ordering to go, they got my sister's order wrong hence she ordered "one sandwich" so there we go to stand in the heat for another 10 minutes. Unhappy vegan customers all the way from California read more

Lulu Green - Mushroom Short Rib (GF) - Vegan Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Food was amazing!!! Best veggie burger we've ever had. Not many tables but it definitely creates a nice intimate feel. Giving it 4 stars because the server didn't let us know that the water wasn't free. I got sparkling and my boyfriend got still and we were charged $7 each. If the server had given us a heads up when he asked our preference, we would have taken the same kind of water, or even just gotten tap if available. read more

Lulu Green is truly the best vegan in Boston, backed by Boston Magazine. Mezze with Hummus, beets and muhammara. Everything including the pita was perfection. Never had muhammara before, we are in love and highly recommend! Beet tartare was so fresh, flavorful, well balanced. The tomato based yoke was insane! Topped with crispy quinoa... Beautiful toast to pair. Highly recommend! Lulu Burger is beautifully compiled. The veggie patty is delicious! Potato is next level. Even the ketchup is fresh and beautifully spiced. Chunk Foods Steak was insane! Very similar texture to real meat and flavor. Its my first time trying Chunk Foods. Its less greasy than competitor Juicy Marbles and feels lighter and healthier, which I prefer for a steak like this. The chimichurri and hot peppers were delicious with a kick of heat. Cauliflower puree balanced the heat beautifully. There was also a side of kimchi green onions that were insanely delicious! For drinks we love the vegan, local artisan liquors. Ordered high school drop out, strawberry mojito, and Nightshift Original Review: Cute cafe by day, fine dining at night. Went for the first time for Valentine's Day prix fixe menu. The food was incredible, really thoughtfully planned, balanced, well executed. Hats off to the chef and team! Smoked Carrot Tartare beautifully smoked (so easy to over do it on the smoke), hint of spice and bright. Broccoli Menage A Trios, creamy, crunchy, nutty, and delicious! And the chef was super kind to accommodate my cashew allergy with tahini versus the broccoli sauce. Thank you, thank you!! Braised Mushroom Short Ribs. Wow, the star of the show! Tried many prix fixe meals where the starters are out of this world, then the main course falls short. What the chef did to get he pull apart texture of the short ribs from the chanterelles... mind blowing. Overall, creamy, bright, and sweet from the red onion jam, and crunchy (not sure what was on top, but they tasted like sweet potato hand peeled chips). I will dream about this dish. To finish, beautiful, rich creamy chocolate mousse with orange almond. Topped with edible flowers that compliment the mousse with crisp, juicy apples and a citrusy, orange peel flavors. Topped with sea salt and cacao nibs to balance. Paired with madagascar fig (my husband's favorite), dreamy french macroons, and chocolate covered strawberries. Incredible experience, will definitely make the one hour trip into South Boston to visit Lulu Green again! read more

Lulu Green - Over Achiever Smoothie (GF) - Vegan Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

I've been to Lulu Green many times - for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Recently visited for their Dine Out Boston special with friends. It was a perfect girls night spot--super tasty food and delicious desserts. Great cocktails and I had an awesome oat milk latte. We had a reservation and were seated on time and had a punctual waitress. She checked in at the right moments and timed our courses correctly. My one critique is that I wish the tables were a bit bigger. The bar seating has good space to spread out though. Lulu Green is such a gem. They dazzle me every time with their flavor, presentation and service. read more

"I'm far from being a vegan, but after trying Lulu's, I might be tempted to make the switch. Their dishes are so convincingly flavorful and satisfying, you'd never guess they're plant-based. From Mediterranean-inspired plates to classic American comfort food, their menu offers an impressive variety. Every dish I tried was bursting with flavor. I highly recommend stopping by Lulu's for a taste of vegan heaven in Southie." read more

Lulu Green is in South Boston along Broadway Street. It's a clean, nice looking cafe with a variety of plant-based offerings. We had a tasty Lulu burger along with a Shawarma bowl. The Yuca fries are a must have. Service was quick and friendly. Would come back again. read more

OMG! Amazing food, drinks and service! The staff was amazing, can't praise them enough. I'm vegan, my family is not but they eat vegan when I cook it or we share a meal out.

We flew in from Seattle today and were so starving! We happily found Lulu Green online and were so thrilled we did! I'm chef and a total food snob so I really know good food and Lulu Green did not disappoint. The Caeser Salad was divine; I could each it every day! The brie style 'cheese' was so textually on point and the flavor was amazing. Since giving up cheese five years ago, I'd never had anything like it. The hot honey-glazed crispy chick'n sandwich was yummy too. We even pigged out and EACH ordered a dessert (chocolate sundae and apple pie). When food is this good, we don't care if it's a bit pricey. And our waitress, Hannah, was so attentive and wonderful. The service was spectacular! read more

I went here last night to try the evening dinner experience at Lulu green. It was amazing! I got the nachos as an app and then cauliflower tacos for my entree.

I get it. There aren't a lot of dedicated vegan spots in Boston, which is probably why Lulu has such above average reviews. But honestly, it's remarkably average. We got the Lulu Burger and Hot Honey Glazed Crispy Chick'n Sandwich. Both were damp(?) when they came out and were so overloaded with toppings that we had to eat with fork and knife; otherwise, you risk all of the sandwich contents sliding out of the soggy pretzel bun with every bite. To their credit, the flavors are good and balanced, but this meal was simply is NOT worth the cost ($19 per sandwich). I'm curious about their brunch options, but can't justify returning. read more

What a wonderful gem to find in our frequent travels to Boston! Very cute little storefront cafe with dining room seating on the edges. The vibe was nice at sunset, playing a good mix of music like father John misty and the national. I had the pastor tacos and my son had the carbonara. My son is allergic to eggs and dairy, so having carbonara was a really special treat for him and it did not disappoint. So creamy and cheesy with mushroom bacon that was perfectly textured and flavored. The peas and the pea snaps were fresh and crisp. Possibly the best carbonara I've ever tried, vegan or not. I had the Al pastor tacos and they were juicy and spicy with hints of pineapple which complimented perfectly. Large fresh slices of jalepeno and red onions added contrasted the creamy avocado sauce (was almost like an aioli). Once again fantastic. I had one of their curated special drinks that had toasted coconut on the rim, and it was refreshing. But the standout of the night was the lemon and strawberry tart. How they managed to make this so delicious, decadent, and vegan will forever be a mystery to me! It was even more delicious than what you'd expect at a non vegetarian restaurant. So impressed. The server and manager were also super nice! We will certainly be back next time we are in Bostons. Ware from Chicago which also has great vegan restaurants, but this may have bested all our local spots! Thank you Lulu Green! read more

Might be the best vegan place I've ever been to. The steak alternative was incredible and everything else was amazing too.

Didn't realize this place was gluten free! This is a cute cafe near Broadway station. It has ample space for dine in and a pretty long drinks, sweets and savoury menu. I was here through a Yelp elite event and got a drink, cookie and a carrot muffin. The carrot muffin was the star of the show. I could taste the spices, the texture was soft and the cream on top was super light. I also got the turmeric pumpkin drink. The turmeric actually toned down the pumpkin flavour which I liked. The chocolate cookie was my least favourite, it was on the overcooked/bitter end. Regardless, I will definitely be back to try some of the savoury goods! read more
