We finally got to try this place on Saturday morning around the time the restaurant was opening -…read morethe place is always packed throughout the day so I would recommend eating earlier in the morning if you don't want to wait around. The lines wrap around the area with easily 15-20 people waiting otherwise. Upon ordering we waited about 10 or so minutes for the food to be prepared - I think this is considered a bit slow so if you are in a rush or see a long line, be ready to accept a longer wait time - this is not prepapred as fast food like other restaurants at this food court. Each portion is made to order and cooked infront of you. I tried the creamy tuscan chicken pasta, it was delicious - lots of toppings, enough for each bite, great balance of flavors. Loved the sun dried tomatoes and creaminess. The pasta itself was cooked perfect, satisfying bite. My only complaint is the type of container that is used, the taller narrower bowls keep your food extremely hot and despite this being a large portion, the narrow shape is awkward to share with someone. I would prefer a regular, shorter wider bowl to fit the same amount and if you're sitting infront of someone and would like to eat from the same bowl, it is easier to grab. As this location is relatively new and very popular, I'll be coming back once the hype dies down - for pricing and portion it was very fair and worth it though. If you love pasta, you'll love Lulu's!

We won't lie we had very low expectations as all we knew about the word "Shaker" were the…read moreready-to-drink seltzers we've seen at the convinence store but as we learned - this place seems very popular. (for a few reasons) A long list of attractive, sweet and creative cocktails served in mason jars that come in two sizes for an exceptionally low price in comparison to the current average. So, if you want to have decent mixed drinks or shots and not break the bank, this is the place for you. The burgers we ordered were not only very large and original but also very well prepared. At 10:30-11:00pm the restaurant basically becomes a club... which surprised us. Long lines outside, bouncer, pat downs getting in, DJ, party lights... All of it. Despite a temporary misunderstanding with the doorman (classic) our expectations were surpassed and we had a decent time.

Free parking and it was completely packed. Certainly a good sign of a nice restaurant. We arrived 10 min early but the table was delayed by the last round of patrons. The waitress was so smart to offer each of us complimentary champagne because of this. Pretty darn nice. We ordered pizzas, Panozzo (big size pizza pocket stuffed with ham, eggplants, and mozzarella), calamari, cheese, a few fettuccine, and a couple of Martini. Among those items, pizzas stood out pretty well. Not only the taste and size but also the toppings as well as the firewood aroma. Beautifully done. Highly recommended. Cool ambiance for dining with great music. Great vibe. The servers were nice and friendly. On top of typical Montreal-style small restaurant tables, this place also offers long tables to accommodate bigger groups. It certainly brings you a very enjoyable dining experience with your buddies for sure. It's such a good dining place. We had a wonderful time catch-up with friends in Laval. No wonder the parking lot was jam-packed! Haha.

The truffle pasta was okay also and the risotto dish came with a big piece of Osso bucco, was not expecting to have a big piece of Osso bucco, I thought it would be bone off. But I can say that the creme brulee was really good The service was actually amazing, the waiter was really friendly. I had ordered an espresso martini with my dessert but they had forgotten to put khalua in it and it taste horrible, when I told the waiter about it he was doubting me on why I wanted to return the drink back but then he realized that it was the khalua that was missing in the drink, he brought me khalua in a glass so I can mix it in my drink. This place seemed to be more of a place for groups, they had private rooms. If you are celebrating a birthday party or a big get together in Laval with Italian type of food, I think it's a good choice.

Once everyone arrived and sat, the order were taken. We didn't had the same waiter, probably to make thing faster. While our waiter was friendly, he seemed rushed. He was running all over the place between table. I never saw him rest but I didn't see him catch his breath either. Something felt off. This give us a rush feeling too since he was skipping kids beverage and such. But once we asked him for the, he politely told us the options and bring them. As for the food, I'm never disappointed. I took the ravioli this time and they were very good. I also ended with the double chocolat cake which was also good. Everyone I talked to liked their meal. Craving for some pasta? It's your place.

It is a cool concept, something I don't run across too often at home for nicer establishments. Wine glasses were already on the table, but they were cleared when I told them we had no wine. The menu is 3 courses, soup or salad, an entree and a desert. I had the penne with vodka sauce, my wife has the salmon and her mom had the lamb chops. Everything was very tasty and the servings were plenty, especially for lunch. The restaurant was huge and fairly empty mid day, which makes sense as I am sure it appeals mainly to business lunches. The deserts were pretty small, but that is fine, since it provides a nice sweet cap to the meal without getting too heavy. Coffee is also included.

We sat in the bar section which is 18+ only - my only negative about this is the chairs used for the high tables on the bar side... extremely hard on the backside if you're going to be there for a while, and difficult to climb on for us two 5'-3 ladies. We started with the fried mozzarella as an app - delicious! Served with a tasty marinara sauce and has great cheese pull. It does get cold fast, so don't let it sit too long. She had a pepperoni pizza as main course and I had the beef tartare - we loved it! The beef tartare is mixed with a truffle aioli and delicious. Side salad was very fresh and the fries were crispy and seasoned just right. I loved their margaritas! Just the right taste and just strong enough! Lastly I must mention our waitress (young woman with long brown curly hair). I think she was the only server for the bar side, and she was *excellent*. Friendly but not in a fake way, attentive but not overbearing, AND after I ordered the beef tartare, she warned me that it's usually mixed with olives - would I like to replace them with capers? Erm, YES! Thank god she mentioned it because I would not have been able to eat it at all otherwise - I'm disgusted of olives. I will definitely be back!
