Awesome breakfast/brunch with a great variety of food and drink options! Fun, urban decor and atmosphere with friendly service.

I got a coffee, friend chicken, biscuits and gravy, eggs, potatoes, and a screwdriver all for $30!! Especially great deal because it was so much (absolutely delicious) food. The food was perfectly seasoned. Also my friend got this insane bloody Mary with giant piece of bacon. Really great service and a cool spot! read more

The chorizo frittata was delicious! A little spice, but not too much. The guacamole and pico were so fresh and the frittata was served hot! The potato's were great too. I also split a mimosa pitcher with my group and they did not skimp! It was super busy for brunch on a Sunday, but they got a large party sat quickly. Clean and nice outdoor seating as well. read more

Went on a Sunday for brunch, the wait was about 25 minutes for a party of four to sit outside. It is pet friendly in the patio! The waiter was quick to grab us some water and our drinks and later our food order. The ambience is nice as they have music. Food took a little bit longer than expected but once it came out, it was delicious! Everything was fresh and hot. read more

As a first time visitor, the restaurant was packed. The music was not too loud, and was a vibe. Customers sang their favorite lyrics while enjoying their meals. Staff were friendly and attentive. I did not enjoy my drink, meal, or dessert. However, the presentation was desirable, and I may return again in the future to try a new dish. My food was salty and cold. Also, the bread pudding was thick and dry. I poured out my drink and went to a different restaurant. read more

5 stars! Excellent food. Excellent service. Excellent ambiance. I mean, even the potatoes were seasoned to perfection. The eggs were scrambled exactly the way I like them. Melted in my mouth! The sweet mascarpone and strawberry dipping sauce added a sweet touch to the French toast. We will be back! read more

It's best to make a reservation. My reservation was at 10 a.m. it was already jammed packed. The waitress was awesome. The food was delicious and the Mimosas drink was good. I will be going back to make it a girls brunch. read more

Service was slow and unpleasant. It took 30 minute for the waitress to come back to check if I was ready to order again because I didn't want beans in the tostada brunch special order and they won't customize it. After finally getting the food we were rushed out while trying to finish our mimosa pitcher. The plate of oil/ the huevo rancheros photo speaks for itself. read more

The ambiance small and quaint... Grate for a brunch with old friends or catching up. I wasn't impressed by the food or the service. I went on Juneteenth and although there were lots of people there, it wasn't nearly crowded enough for them to have gotten my order wrong and then serve me cold food. I'll give them another chance. But I'm also not too up to return anytime soon. read more

The food was amazing! I enjoyed the chicken and red velvet waffles and is was better than expected. You can tell the chicken is marinated and has a nice seasoned breading. Very tasty! The service was great as well, we will be returning soon! read more

Very metropolitan in the Shocktop Bottom strip. is street based and you will have to walk so be mindful of your meters . Very cute, good seating, great servers and hosts. I had the Walkerwoods Shirmp and Grits and it was soooo freakin good. All of the Jamaican vibes came together with the buttery grits to make a delicious bite. 10/10 recommend and yes I'm all 10 lol read more

The service was amazing. Went on a Sunday for breakfast. The food was fast, hot and fresh. I got the potatoes, scrambled eggs, toast and bacon. Others in my party got grits, biscuits and gravy, hot chocolate and a mimosa. No complaints other than the potatoes were a bit on the spicy side. The orange juice tasted so fresh, like it was squeezed just for me when I ordered it! The sparse Christmas decor was still delightful. Would definitely go back again and maybe try the burger. Yum! read more

I'm the researcher when it comes to traveling and I chose this spot for breakfast for our first time here in Richmond. We loved and enjoyed everything - our server was upbeat and knowledgeable, the hosts and staff were pleasant, and our food was delicious. Great way to start our day of walking around and visiting nearby museums. This restaurant and the neighborhood it's in are such a vibe; it kind of felt like we were on a movie set. We ate here on a Thursday morning when they opened and they weren't crazy busy at all. If we had time during our trip, we would've eaten here for a second time. read more

Man oh man! What a GEM in Richmond. I was attending a cheerleading competition for my daughter and knew I had time to burn. I searched yelp for some breakfast spots and this place came up. We arrived at open and were quickly seated. I originally came for the red velvet pancake but was surprised when they said it was just food coloring. I immediately changed my mind and ended up getting some DELICIOUS French Toast and potatoes. The potatoes were nicely seasoned. Country Ham was salty like it was suppose to be. Eggs and bacon were good. I couldn't have been more happier. My mother in law ordered the Chorizo Frittata and it was gone before I could look up. If I visit Richmond again I'll definitely be back. read more

BLUF: Ok food. Normal drinks. Slow service. Food (3/5): I got the country fried steak and was very dissapointed with how small and tough it was. I asked for my eggs to be over medium (their menu states to ask if you want your eggs done different than over easy) and they came out over easy. I hate the over easy texture. I was disgusted by it. Ambiance (4/5): loud music, typical brunch place, not too crowded (had a 15 min wait for 2 people). It was a modern yet normal looking brunch spot, nothing that stood out. Service (3/5): Service was slow, but they seemed short staffed. Our waitress was good, but I ended up getting my drink after the meal was done. And I kept getting an evil eye from one of the waitresses. Not sure what that was about. Biscuits (3/5): They had a sweet flavor and were undercooked. The gravy on it made it very soggy. read more

It was my first time trying this place. It was yummy! I ordered the chorizo frittata.

Food slapped & the service was great. Josh was super attentive and did a great job of checking in on us. The atmosphere was pretty chill and the music was a vibe. We also had two different mimosas, the Brazilian & Blood Orange. I love that they provide to-go cups as well. I would definitely frequent again when visiting the area. read more

I loved the food here. Everything was pretty delicious & cooked very well. The eggs were seasoned good and didn't require any extra seasoning. The potatoes were one of my favorite side dishes.

Located in the heart of Shockoe Bottom, Lulu's serves up American brunch favorites in an atmosphere. The steam punk wall decor gives the place a fun yet comfortable vibe. The walls are decorated with an impressive collection of vintage baby doll art, up-cycled with bodies made from scrap metal junk such as old feed cans and gasoline receptacles. Metal fixtures and colorful lightbulbs are utilized throughout to add to this cultivated industrial TI OT. My favorite dish here is the shrimp and stone-milled pimento grits. It features stone-ground cheesy pimento grits with seared shrimp, poached eggs , hollandaise and ｄｉａｂｌｏ sauce and is finished with some fresh asparagus spears. The pimento cheese , poached eggs, and specialty sauces really make this dish . Runner up, though, is any dish that includes their red velvet waffles (choices are fried chicken and waffles or red velvet waffles served with pecan cream cheese and waffles). Fun, atmosphere and ïṅċṛëḋïḅḷë, inventive dishes make this place a welcome respite from your average diner for brunch. read more

The food simply wasn't very good. Our waitress was kind, peppy, & helpful. The food came over fast, but a little too fast if you know what I mean. It appears they may prepare a bunch of brunch dishes and then serve as ordered. The food however was overpriced & disappointing. I got the Atlantic omelet which was flavorless, even worst though my friend got the chicken & biscuits & it was truly the worst biscuit EVERRRR. You basically had to saw in to it, to even get a bite & then the texture was beyond off & I would've never guessed it was a biscuit. read more

Let me start off by saying the service sucks, my husband and myself was greeted and given a table by the waiter at the door, we set down for 10 minutes no one never came to the table but it was a group of workers standing right by us laughing not paying us no mind. I asked was anyone working because no one greeted or came to the table, one of the workers said we all are working. Long story short the food was okay, a came out pretty fast but they do not cater to the black community at all! No shade but white people came in after us was greeted, and got service right away! I was disgusted and will not return and by the way my husband still tipped! read more

Brunch is my favorite meal of the day and Lulu's did not disappoint. I was just visiting RVA and wanted to eat a place that had outdoor seating. I ordered the French Toast and added eggs, potatoes, and sausage. You also can't forget the mimosa and mine had a floater shot of rum. I will definitely go again when I'm in town. Josh was my waiter and he was great! He was knowledgeable about the menu and didn't rush me as I was trying to enjoy my morning! read more

Amazing and quaint place in Shockoe! Apparently the home of red velvet waffles. I went there for my birthday celebration and they easily accommodated a group of 6 with a table and let us eat my cake! I enjoyed my meal there. Very nice atmosphere. I think the grits could have used more seasonings and salt though. Fairly bland. read more

In this April's installment of New Dining Adventures, we went to Lulu's. The menu was intriguing, and included many GF options, so we checked it out. The neighborhood Lulu's is in is so much fun, with so much personality. The restaurant fit right in. It was busy for Sunday brunch, but we had reservations and the layout of the dining room didn't feel crowded. Our server Rasheedah took excellent care of us. And her recommendations were spot on. My chicken and waffles were tasty, but Friend's omelet looked amazing! Everything was well prepared and we enjoyed it immensely. Lulu's is definitely on my go-to list now for brunch. And I absolutely WILL be getting the Atlantic Omelet next time. read more

Extra charge for eggs in an egg dish. I ordered heuvos rancheros which per the menu description includes eggs. Got a big surprise when the bill came and I had been charged an extra $4 for the 2eggs that I assumed came with the price of the dish since they are one of the primary ingredients in the dish. Otherwise the food tasted good but was a bit too greasy. Won't be returning due to up charges for items that should be included in the price. I understand eggs are expensive lately but this is like charging extra for eggs in your scrambled eggs or omelet.... read more

i've been here multiple times over the years & their flavors are always on point! i've never had a bland dish from lulu's. the only thing is their biscuits have a weird texture... too spongy. i thought it was just a fluke, but they're consistently like that read more

The food is good the waitress are very polite and the ambiance is good I recommend This place

Came here for brunch because it was very hyped up but didn't necessarily live up to it. Nothing was particularly bad, the food just lacked in flavor & that's why I'm giving 3 stars. I wouldn't come again for the breakfast/brunch menu. The Bloody Mary was also very watered down & lacked flavor. The place was cute and clean though & the service was wonderful. Our server was so kind and accommodating when we needed suggestions/had complaints. read more

It's been YEARS since I've been to Lulu's and I was excited when my friend suggested we meet up for a good ol Sunday brunch at this RVA fan favorite. Unfortunately, my experience recently put a bad taste in my mouth. For starters we ordered a picture of Brazilian mimosas which was supposed to have rum in it but it tasted watered down. Womp. My friend who is a regular said it's been better. For food I went with the steak special that was to be served with eggs and potatoes. Can't go wrong with steak and potatoes amiright?! WRONG. When my meal came out it LOOKED good.. however after moving the mound of eggs and potatoes to the side I noticed I was only given 3 baby slices of steak?! I guess they tried to cover it up to create an illusion that I had more than what was actually there. I decided to take a little nibble on one of the pieces while my food was still hot and it was TOUGH. Now looking back I should have changed my order when the waitress said I couldn't choose the temperature of my steak. Genuinely curious I asked for my waitress to ask her if this was all of the steak I was to be given? When she came up she looked at it and said "I'll go get the manager".?!? Odd interaction because I felt it was a question she should have been able to answer or at least go get the answer from the kitchen. I just wanted a yes or no lol. At this point I stop eating the potatoes/eggs so they can see what's on my plate...Y'all, it was at least 15 mins before this manager came to my table. During this time I noticed my waitress was huddled in a group of other servers looking back at us?! Just weird. Anywho the manager shows up and do you know what he said? Nope not hi simply "who is complaining about the steak?" My friend and I were both thrown off because is that how you greet your guest! I corrected him and said I wasn't complaining I just wanted to know if this was all of my steak. He then proceeds to tell me the waitress said I ATE A PIECE?!? Lmaooo Iucky for him I take pics of all my food so I proudly showed him what I was given verses the steak still on my plate. Him: "oh yeah, that is a small piece, we can send another piece out for you" . At this point I'm thinking they'd remake it bc I waited so long and my food was cold! Y'all .. they sent out the smallest overcooked little end piece of the steak to make up for the one I bit into.. I couldn't help but laugh. By this point I was over it. Kept it cute, tipped well, &mentally decided I will not rushing back smh. Positives : Music was good! read more

We had a great experience at Lulu's, starting with being seated immediately despite the place being packed. The service was excellent: attentive, friendly, and efficient. Our food came out surprisingly fast, which is always a plus when dining at a busy brunch spot. Food Breakdown *Potatoes - They were flavorful but not quite cooked to perfection. The peppers were cut into large chunks, making them a bit overwhelming in each bite. They also weren't sautéed as well as they could have been, leaving them slightly undercooked in some areas. That said, the seasoning was good, and they still made for a decent side. *Sausage Links - These were the thick, old-school style links--not the small breakfast sausages most places serve. They had a nice, juicy bite and a traditional, hearty flavor. If you like classic, full-bodied sausage, you'll enjoy them. *Red Velvet Waffle - While the flavor was there, it had a slightly burnt aftertaste, which made it taste overcooked. However, it wasn't so bad that I didn't eat it--I just think it could have been prepared a little better. The saving grace was the pecan cream cheese and other toppings, which were absolutely perfect. The balance of sweetness and texture worked really well, enhancing the overall dish. *Chorizo - This was a highlight of the meal! It tasted fresh, well-seasoned, and authentic. The texture was just right--not too dry or too greasy--and the flavor was bold but not overpowering. Definitely a standout. *Cheese Grits - These were smooth, creamy, and well-seasoned. Not too thick, not too runny. If you're a grits person, you'll appreciate how well they were prepared. Overall Experience: The service really stood out. It was quick, professional, and attentive without being overbearing. I'd give it a solid 9/10. We sat outside, which made for a really nice atmosphere, but I do wish they had umbrellas for some shade. The sun was bright, and it would have made the experience even more comfortable. For brunch, we spent $51 for two people, and that was without any alcohol--just food. Given the portion sizes and quality, I'd say it was a fair price. While the food wasn't perfect, the good far outweighed the bad, and I'd definitely come back. Overall, I'd rate my experience an 8/10! read more

I loved Lulus ...and not because my name is Lucille ! Richmond has a great food scene , and this is one of my favorites . Lulus is a true breakfest / brunch place, open from 9-3. Your choice to dine inside or outside ! Casual and cool vibe ! Even the servers are cool, but warm ! Friendly , welcoming , attentive . Bloody Mary's were well balanced , with a nice kick. I had lulus benedict , because it's so hard for me not to go that route! eggs perfectly cooked , hollandaise rich , buttery with that zing of lemon , country ham and toasty english muffins . My son and daughter had the chicken and waffles ! chicken juicy and tender , waffle fluffy and light . Also included , 2 scrambled eggs and a side of sausage gravy . Food timing was perfect . Food arrived hot , a must for me ! A reservation would be helpful , it's a hopping place . read more

Nice I divey breakfast/brunch spot in the heart of Richmond. Great food. Great drinks. Great service.

After a not-so-great brunch at Millie's, we made it back to Lulu's and it didn't disappointment! We made a reservation and made it just in time to get seated (Note: If you are 10 minutes past your reservation time, they will give your table away). The peach mimosa was good and a lot bigger than I expected! Worth it! We both ordered the shrimp and grits with a biscuit. Everything was good and the music was perfect for Saturday brunch vibes. read more

I checked out LuLus for a brunch with a friend & we had a great time! First step was drinks - I had their pomegranate mule. It came in a pint glass which is already a bonus, it was also delicious! Their menu is diverse and has some cool options; like their red velvet waffle! I ended up putting together some side items for my meal and was so pleased! I had a fried chicken biscuit with honey - delicious! Thier biscuits will fill you up and are so good. I also had their cheese grits which they make with pimento cheese - yum!! I would go back there just for these grits! Final thoughts: food was delicious, drinks were great and plenty big, and the cost was lower than I expected! read more

Excellent meal and service! Sat at the bar and bartender was awesome. I had the corned beef hash and poached eggs. My husband had the red velvet waffles and scrambled eggs. Both very tasty! Mimosas were great too! Love this place. read more

Lulus is such a cute place and I love that they do reservations for brunch. We went at 10:30 on a Saturday and it wasn't too busy which surprised me. We were sat quickly and our drink orders were taken. We ordered the French toast, Benedict and the chicken biscuit. All of the food was good. The pomegranate mule was great. Only downside is our server kind of vanished and didn't return mid meal to give us an opportunity to order a second round of drinks. read more
