" I had a fantastic meal at LOULOU during my weekend in New York! The ambiance is so charming and cozy that it's perfect for a relaxed dinner date. I ordered the charcuterie board, and while it was beautifully presented, I felt it could have had more variety. The duck breast I tried was cooked to perfection, and the accompanying sides were tasty! Overall, despite a couple of minor issues, I really enjoyed my time here. " (*Curated Review*)

" A good French restaurant is hard to find, but LOULOU hits the mark beautifully! I was impressed by the varied menu and how authentic the dishes felt. The coq au vin had that richness that reminded me of what my grandmother used to make. The ambiance was lovely, and the staff were attentive without being intrusive. I enjoyed a fabulous glass of Bordeaux with my meal, which was the perfect pairing. Will certainly be back soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a delight to dine at LOULOU! We made a reservation and upon arrival, we were seated promptly. The ambiance was perfect for a celebratory dinner; candlelit and sophisticated! We enjoyed several dishes, including the lamb chops and the sea bass, all which exploded with flavor. The wines are paired perfectly with the menu, and our server was actually knowledgeable in suggesting the right options. I can't wait to visit again! " (*Curated Review*)

" LOULOU has quickly become my go-to spot for brunch! The atmosphere is just incredible, especially on sunny days when you can sit outside. They have a special brunch menu that features a variety of French classics. I had the steak and eggs, and it was cooked perfectly to my liking. The potatoes on the side were golden and crispy. Also, I can't forget to mention their cocktails - creative and refreshing! I return every time I have friends visiting from out of town; everyone loves it! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was really looking forward to dining at LOULOU after hearing such great things, but I have to admit, I left a little disappointed. The ambiance was nice and our waitress was friendly, but I found the food to be just average. The escargot was decent, but it lacked the garlic butter depth I was hoping for. The cocktails were fun, but for the price, I expected more flavor. I might give it another try, but I wasn't wowed this time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a lovely time at LOULOU celebrating my anniversary. The intimate setting was perfect for the occasion. Our meal started with the French onion soup, which was divine, and for the main, we enjoyed the ribeye for two, sautéed to perfection. The service was charming and attentive, but we did have to wait a bit longer than anticipated for our dessert. Still, the croissant pudding made it worth the wait! " (*Curated Review*)

" An enjoyable evening at LOULOU with great company. The cocktails sparked joy, each one unique in flavor and presentation. We shared plates of escargots, which pleased my palate, though a smidge salty for my taste. The duck confit was fantastic! Our service was friendly, though slightly delayed—perhaps the restaurant's popularity was a factor. All in all, a very delightful experience! " (*Curated Review*)
