Very good neighborhood Mexican chow place. We've never had anything bad here. The owners are very nice and they are flexible when it comes to ordering to your liking. I like their camaron ceviche and fish taco plate. Hubby usually orders the carne asada burrito or chicken enchiladas. My cutie pie likes the quesadilla. We get so disappointed when Mexican places do not have horchata. They have it here and it's good. The portions are pretty good size, just enough for the price. read more

I've been going to Lulu's since I was probably 5 years old, my dad used to take me when all I cared about were bean burritos. 18 years later I can still say Lulu's is one of the best Mexican food places I've ever been. I agree with a lot of what has already been said: chips and salsa are not free which is a total bust, some of the stuff is WAY overpriced, and... can we talk about the price of refills?? $0.79 no matter what size soda you bought? I definitely got screwed on that one by buying a small soda thinking I would get free refills... It IS a hole in the wall. It's a great summer lunch place or an early dinner after a long day at the pool. Everything I've had: carne asada, bean burro, the salsa, they are all good. Just pricey. How did I pay $9 for a drink, a bean burrito, a street taco and some chips?? I will never know. Yelp is wrong, I feel like $10 and under should not be considered cheap per person, but that's what I have to put since all the entrees are about $10. But it was really, really good. I would rather pay like $7.50 but I don't eat there every day and I understand there must be some underlying cost we aren't aware of. Oh, and they have CRUSHED ICE!! (The good kind like at Sonic) So I'm sold. Thanks Lulu! read more

Lulu's isn't cheap. Now that I got that out of the way let me say that I love Lulu's chicken Enchiladas. LOVE. No, the tortillas are not homemade. No, there isn't anything else on the menu that is exceptional. Lulu's chicken enchiladas are graced by an amazingly delicious marinade and sauce unparalleled by other local eateries. Ask them to leave the onions off! I think it is a yellow mole. Not sure... plenty of canella, possibly some pumpkin in the sauce and sweet spicy goodness. My Lulu's chicken enchiladas addiction cost me some money over the years. Que rico! Lulu's would get five stars from me if not for the slightly high prices. read more

Not that great. The super nachos are not at all super. Way overpriced at $9. The service was not that great. They were inconvenienced when I asked for my order to be done a different way. One in our party enjoyed his meal. The other three of us were sad. The bathrooms were lovely.... read more

First and last time. Just moved in down the road and was looking for a new regular place. Ordered two Platter Meals and two beers totalling $35 only to then be told it would $2 more if we wanted chips. I feel like $12 for a platter should include chips. They also charge a 75 cent fee if you want to use a card. I was under the impression that was illegal. I could be wrong. It's a rip off either way. Apparently they run their kitchen better than they run the business. The food was decent overall however it fell short the price tag. Rice was bit bland and the beans were too thin. The Shrimp Endiablados was actually pretty good. Salsa bar was average. Nothing to really stand out. Staff was extremely polite and the storefront was clean but I left feeling like I had been taken advantage of. You got my two bucks for chips Lu Lu's, but you lost my business. read more

What an awesome dive - they focus on the food and do it well at LuLu's. The food was incredibly fresh and flavorful. I had 3 chicken tacos, guacamole and lemonade. The pico was perfect, very fresh with just a little heat. My tacos were well seasoned, and overall the meal was incredibly satisfying. I really love this place and plan to add it to our rotation for good local places to eat and or get take out. read more

Really surprising good Guadalajara food. We had the special which was whole Tilapia fried with salad and fries. Could have left off the fries and provided chips, but the fish was excellent! Also had a couple of shredded beet tacos, very tasty! Give it a try. Small place, only 10 tables. But quick friendly service. read more

If I could give more stars I would. I tried the tripa tacos and they were awesome. I also tried their ceviche and it was so so so good.Very friendly and kind people. Thank you, muchas gracias Lulu! read more

Very good service, the people are very kind and the food is delicious. The AZ tacos are so good! . I can't wait to go there again

** No free chips and salsa*** I ordered the Meat Enchilada Plate with chicken and it was very tasty. However, I didn't really see any chicken. If there was any in there, it was skimpy. I paid $8.30 which I thought was a little too expensive. I think I'd pay more like $6.75 for what I got. This is a good place to go for a healthy lunch (compared to Carl's Jr.), but not dinner because the serving size was a little smaller than I'm used to. There was only about 3 tablespoons of rice. Sour cream is an extra .50. I'm wimpy when it comes to spicy food and this food was just right, not too spicy. There are no child's menu items, but they have for example a bean tostada for 2.55. Over all, I'd eat there again if someone else was buying! read more

Not going to lie, was not super impressed. Used a yelp deal for breakfast, the lady who took our order then walked back and made the food. Feel like I could have made the food better at my house. Probably won't be coming back any time soon. Obnoxiously playing spongebob on the tv extremely loud, even though there were no kids there. read more

Always a good experience here. If you want good Mexican food, this is a place you can rely on. Sometimes you can even catch Lulu her self cooking the best, fresh, authentic food! Everybody is so wonderful and kind. I come from Los Angeles with Mexican food at my disposal and no where can compare to Lulus. My boyfriend, my self, and coworkers come here so often they always recognize us. That itself is a wonderful feeling. read more

Been going here since I was a kid. Never in my life have I found a better bean and cheese burrito! Blessing and a curse since I no longer live in Gilbert.. but I do make the drive often! Authentic Mexican food, can't beat it. read more

Spent $30 on breakfast burritos and this is what we brought home not one but multiple hairs in 2 different burritos!!! read more

This is my family's "go to" Mexican food place. I love the green chile pork and my wife finds the different shrimp plates delicious. Along with some good horchata, the food here can't be beat! I've since bumped this up to 5 stars. We come here so often I'm working my way through the menu. The red chile burro is my new comfort food. Zopes are delicious and if you want something spicy, you can't go wrong with the AZ super taco. read more

First time, ordered carne asada street tacos. They come with cabbage, onion and cilantro which I love. Tacos came out quickly and promptly. I think the carne needs more flavor, I had to add a significant amount of salt to give it a kick. The cabbage and onion should also be chopped just little bit smaller. The way they were chopped today had random large pieces of both, large chop overall. It's a but over priced as well. Not terrible, but not as good as I thought. read more

Lulu's is a winner. Situated nearby a slew of much-praised restaurants, this mom and pop place lives up to its location. The staff is knowledgable and friendly, and the place is sparse but clean. The ingredients they use are always fresh, and the flour tortillas and guacamole are especially high quality. I would recommend both the cheese chile relleno and the veggie burrito; they definitely keep me coming back for more. I've also been told by many friends that the beef at Lulu's is prepared very well. For Guadalajara fare in the valley, I don't think I'd go anywhere else! read more

Authentic Mexican food. Sometimes we purchase the bag of tortillas on the way out they're so good. In two words - Salsa Bar. Architecturally, not the nicest or cleanest looking place. Although I'm sure it's clean, just in need of some updating. Family owned and operated, sometimes the younger staff seems a little on the entitled side if you know what I mean...But what can you expect when their food sells itself and they know it. read more

Like the sign says "Best tacos in AZ". But to be honest it should be best bean and cheese burritos in AZ! Lulu's bean cheese burritos are nothing like I've had before. With the combination of the bean, cheese, and Lulu's homemade tortillas creates a heavenly combination that melts in your mouth. Although the dinning room is quaint and not as fancy as the other taco places located south from here. I believe that the food here totally makes up for it. Also, the staff is very friendly, even the kitchen staff will greet you when you walk up to order. All in all, my experience at Lulu's is always a good one. The food is always impeccable, and it keeps me coming back. read more

If I could give zero stars I would. I ordered a small pazole for over $6 and half of my cup was bone! And the taste was just okay. Nothing special about it, and definitely not worth the money. read more

Lulus Taco Shop - Don't do it! Paid over $6 for bones. Once I took the bone out it was half the cup. The taste wasn't even nothing special. - Mexican Near Me - Gilbert, Arizona

Lunched here today. We used a "Living Social" coupon, which obviously confused the lady who was running the register. As a result of her confusion, she charged my debit card for the whole amount, then had to refund it, then had to charge it again, and somehow came up with a different amount that I owed every time. The second strike against this place was that it took 45 minutes from the time we ordered our four tacos until we actually received them. Third strike, the food was below average in my opinion. I had the beef taco and the carnitas taco, both super greasy meat, with less than impressive flavors. The salsa was ok. My sister had the AZ super taco and the shrimp taco, her were better than mine, but still not fabulous. Add those three strikes to the fact that they have a very cramped little parking lot and that pretty much left me knowing that I won't be heading back there anytime soon... or ever. read more

I'm sick this morning, so this post will not be the most witty, poetic, or lively, but it will be straightforward - bear with me: I lived within walking distance of Lulu's for three years. This means I was also within walking distance of several other fun and delicious restaurants (Joe's Real BBQ, Liberty Market, Flancer's, etc), but Lulu's became my local area favourite very quickly. Compared to other downtown Gilbert eats, it's cheaper. That said, it's more expensive than most Mexican food places across the East Valley. I'm not thrilled that their chips and salsa as a side have to be paid for, but it's worth skipping on chips to focus on their main dishes. They specialize in Guadalajara-style Mexican food, and if you're familiar with that area's cuisine at all, this is a definite win. I'm a particular fan of their tortas and enchiloso burros - so, so good. Their seafood is all right, but their beef is the best meat item on the menu. Definitely splurge on a fresh mango or pineapple juice if you can. Those make any meal there perfect. read more

Friendly and knowledgable staff. Service was fast and food was better than most. We were told about Lulus from a friend and we're hoping for good food. All of the meats were perfectly cooked. The fish tacos needed no sauce the fish was so well seasoned and prepared. They have a quesadilla we have had only at home: corn tortilla quesadilla. We had the pork stuffed one. Meat was falling out, it was so stuffed. We tried the AZ burro, one of the most popular and it was amazing fried. The soda even tasted better than a lot of local restaurants (water being the biggest factor). As we were devouring the flan, which had just the right amount of burnt sugar taste, we noticed how clean the restaurant was. It was right after lunch and all the tables were clean and the floors being mopped as we were finishing. read more

Lulu's was recommended to me. I could not have been more disappointed in the food. I ordered two carne asada tacos. The shells were stale and I had to spit out two or three pieces of the carne asada because it was tough and fatty. The rice and refried beans were unremarkable. The restaurant was cute and clean and the gal who took my order very sweet, but the food was terrible. I would not go back. read more

For a taco shop, those were some pretty tasteless tacos! I was so uninspired with what I was served that I did not even take a picture. My wife had fish tacos that were dry and also tasteless. read more

My dad and I went to this Lulus Taco shop and was hungry for pozole... when we got there there was no one in line and 2 people sitting Down in the restaurant , after we ordered, we sat down at a table. It was clean but we waited a minimum of 40 minutes for 2 bowls of pozole. We had to go remind the people that we were here and they looked at us suprized... they went into the kitchen and in 10 minutes they brought out pozole that lacked in flavor and was like warm. They also told us when we reminded them that they were making a new batch but yet they served us lukewarm pozole. This was our first and last time eating here. Very disappointed in this place. read more

We always go non chain and love this local joint. The fish tacos, Shrimp quesadillas and burros are our favorites. Lulu's caters also. It isn 't cheap but it is really good. read more

Hola! Yo quero zopes en tacos Yes, my Spanglish is tops! Just like this place. I would like to announce my new favorite hole-in-the-wall Mexican joint - Lulu's Taco Shop! I ordered their Zope and el Pastor with rice and beans. The zope base was different from what I'm used to. It was actually a hard piece of bread instead of a hard shell tortilla, which wasn't bad at all. The beef in each of the items I ordered was well braised and soft. The salsa a top was okay but definitely needed some extra kick. They have a salsa bar with some pickled carrots, onions, and peppers. You don't see that around here in PHX often or at all! The place is well decorated with some Mexican flair. This is a real dive and what you would expect to have some great food and it did not disappoint! They only accept cash so don't forget to stop by the bank. - Enjoy! read more

The special carne asada tacos are delicious! Definitely the best I've had...the grilled onions and cheese melt in your mouth! It is a bit pricey for a place that is a "hole in the wall" - not at all a sight to look at--- but at least the food is good... read more

Lulu's is AMAZING. The guacamole & chips are a MUST TRY! I also higly recommend a good ole' fashioned bean burrito, the tortilla is super soft * the beans are very authentic. read more

I ordered Carne Asada torta and 3 tacos(cabeza, chicken, and pastor). All was very good flavor. The cost was $16, which is not bad for the amount of food, but they were a little light on the meat, I'm sure it's a good business model, but I would expect a lot of meat for the price. I would recommend if you are looking for very flavorful Mexican food! read more

I found LuLu's by way of a Living Social deal. I thought the food was good and the pricing was okay. The counter girl was really helpful and kept her cool with a over zealous slightly rude customer. (wasn't me) It isn't located near where I live, so I probably won't return except to use the second half of my deal. Had the food been better than "good", I would go out of my way. I don't agree with the extra fee to use a credit card... read more

As a Los Angeles native, I know Mexican food. I know tacos. We came late Sunday night after a long day of moving. An hour before closing, we were worried that we'd be getting the left overs that's been sitting out all day. We both ordered 2 tacos each and rice and beans. I had carne asada & el pastor tacos. The tacos were the perfect size!!! The rice and beans were fresh, and delicious. So good, I can eat there everyday!! The place was so cute, nothing fancy. Just a taco shop, it felt like home. read more

Great great great tacos! I go to a restaurant for the food first. As long as it is clean, and Lulu's is, then sitting in, what looks like a used McDonalds booth, doesn't bother me a bit. Afterall, it's a taco shop! I like the fish tacos (the small ones) and I usually order 3 of them. I like how they are made and it reminds me of what you can normally find in Mexico, not at these chain restaurants. The Ceviche tostada is really good too, but is difficult to eat, so don't wear your sunday best. Not in the mood for fish, then try the carne asada tacos or any other kind for that matter. Lulu's is a great place and a break from the Americanized Mexican Food, we see everyday. Enjoy it for what it is! read more

When the pickiest eater of my bunch clears her plate, you know it's good!!! Tucked away in a little strip mall, this very clean and comfortable spot feels like home, especially when Lulu herself comes out to speak with you while the rest of the family keeps on eating. Try the zopes, AZ burrito (if you can take the heat of the fire sauce) and have some flan too! We'll be back...and I won't be waiting 10 years to come again. read more
