Hahaha, I wrote a review for this place earlier, took me a HOT minute to write it and then Yelp said it was too long.
Have they met me?!?! My reviews are always long! lol!
So! Let's try this again.
At the intersection of Harrison Blvd and Hill Rd, you turn left and half a block up is this hiking spot, Harrison Hollows. Wonderful place to hike.
You start a hike on the right side of the trails.
I did this one day and turn my head to the right, look down the huge hill, I see through the brush and the trees a sign for the place that has been dubbed "Boise's Best Pizza" pretty much every year since moving here.
After every hike at Harrison Hollows, I told my roommate "we are eating there after the hike"
Did that ever happen? Nope.
My friends Birthday was the other day and I FINALLY made it to the locally famous, Lulu's Pizza!
Ever since moving here, I've been on an ongoing quest to find the BEST pizza in Boise.
Growing up in NY, I had the best pizza my entire life. Coming to Boise, Idaho, you just don't expect to find pizza that compares to any NY pizza.
Oprah's big ass did a pizza quest years ago and claimed a restaurant in Phoenix had the country's best pizza. Her lover, Gayle also said this place had the best. I lived in Phx for years, ate at that restaurant a few times and I can assure....it is NOT the best pizza in this country. It's good, but best of the entire country...haha, no, not quite. Not even close to the best.
2 weeks ago I reviewed NY Giant Pizza. After visiting Lulu's on Sunday, I can still say that NY Giant Pizza...is still my favorite here and that it is without a doubt, the closest to true NY pizza.
Lulu's is very good, don't get me wrong, but to dub it Boise's best...ehhhh, I dunno bout all that!
The restaurant is cool as hell. You walk in and immediately notice all the bikes hanging from the ceiling. They also have some great art on the wall, including a nice little tribute to the INCREDIBLE Aaliyah.
The staff are a bunch of hippies and hipsters. Yes, there's a big difference between the two lol. Hippies are great! Hipsters...wellllll, we all know about them lol. Luckily, lulu's found some good hipsters. All their staff is super friendly! Most HIPPIES tho...are, haha!
The food...the pizza, it is very good. Nice large slices, and it it tasty. I would say it's unique to Boise. Adding "NY Style" I think they should drop that bit. Then again, businesses do this to make that $$$, lol.
Again, it's very good pizza, but I wouldn't say it's our best here.
Should you try this place? Absolutely! Will I go again?? Of course.
Oh, they have sushi too! I know, I thought it was totally random too! But apparently people like pizza and sushi night, hahaa!
I paid like $26 for a large. I kiiiiinda thought that was overpriced. But again, when you win "best of" you have more leeway to bump the prices up and also, north end businesses have that rent to pay.
Ok, I guess I will end here. Don't wanna make it too long, YELP! hahahaal!
Oh, slices are available for like $4 bucks each! See, to me, that's a tad much. But it's their place and obviously it's working for them. They don't need to raise the price anymore tho. Just sayin.
Oh! Haha! And they have a lot of great imported beers. I'm not much of a drinker, but I do love me some great imported beers from time to time!
That's it! Thanks so much, my yelperererers!!!
Enjoy that pizza!
