" LUFU is an experience, not just a meal! The flavors are genuine and well-balanced, especially the Angara Chicken. Shout-out to our server, who was amazing! The only critique I would say is the wait was a bit longer, but it was well worth it for the quality of the food. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a wonderful dining experience at LUFU NOLA! The atmosphere was fantastic, and the decor very vibrant. I especially enjoyed the Lamb Chops which were tender and flavorful. The service was quick and attentive, though a bit on the pricier side for the portions. Still, it is well worth a visit for anyone craving quality Indian cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)
