Lula Southern Cookhouse

The food was amazing. We went in for restaurant week with friends to sample all of their offerings. While everything we had was amazing. Here are the 2 standouts. The StandoutsThe Blueberry biscuit was so good, my only regret was that after my meal I didn't save it for dessert instead. The flavor was sublime. The Chicken and Waffles was so good. The quality of the chicken was amazing. They weren't small pieces loaded with grease, instead they were moist and perfectly seasoned. The waffle was delicious. I felt like I had blacked out and woke up and they were gone. They were that good and I devoured them that fast. Coming back for more soon!

First time brunching, did make reservations do the Yelp app the evening before was seated pretty quickly nice wait staff. I had the homemade donuts along with the Cajun Smashburger the donuts were sweet but good 4 out of five the Smashburger had good flavor good portion size the fries that came with the Smashburger seasoned very well definitely a 4 out of five.My wife had classic coffee wish you loved 4 out of five and she also had the the Sausage Momuffin with grits and potatoes that she enjoyed a 4 out of five the experience was good portion sizes were good. I would definitely go back for brunch again. If you haven't been you should give them a try

The food is over priced. I did the take out order and the portion of a $29 Gumbo, $18 meatballs, and 2 portions or $10 each add-on sides with a total bill of $74 looks so miserable. Maybe when they are placed on the plates with decoration in the restaurants, it would feel more reasonable for the price they charge. Food is heavy seasoned and flavored. The way they cook beans were not my cup. And it was supposed to be one add-on beens and one add-on collard greens. They changed it to two portion of green beens without giving me notice. Actually this was my second time getting food from them, the first time was almost a year ago, and back then it was just slightly overpriced but tolerable. Since most comments recommended gumbo on google reviews, and I happened to want something warm, I gave it a try again. This time I am sure I won't visit again.

We have been coming here since they first opened up. The food is always good, and I LOVE their hot sauce! It's made here... the location is good and there is decent parking all around the block. We have never had bad service yet. We are here for the Thanksgiving meal and brought a friend. My only complaint this year is that they have a new rule of no to-go boxes. Not cool!!!

My friends and I went to Lula's for brunch, and we had a fantastic experience. Even though we didn't have a reservation, the wait was manageable. Our waitress was super friendly and made us feel right at home. The food was delicious and packed with flavor. Plus, the drinks were excellent and had a nice kick to them!

It's a decent southern restaurant with a charming atmosphere. We love the North Carolina-themed menus. Turns out one of the owners is from NC so the menu was a nod to his NC roots. Service could've been better. We waited a bit for our order and we asked about it and our server appeared annoyed. The blackened catfish was well-seasoned but heavily salted. Same for the dirty rice. The collard greens were phenomenal. I recommend the chicken and waffles. The fried chicken was moist and crispy. We never had rice waffles before so we were glad to try it. Also delicious housemade biscuits!

We were in the mood for Southern Comfort Food and found Lulu Southern Cookhouse to satisfy our appetite. Lulu's had a beautiful comforting environment with soft music, low lighting in the evening, a patio, large windows, brick walls, wooden ceilings and flooring. Although the tables are next to each other, we felt that we had enough space and was not crammed. I reserved through their portal on their website and when we showed up, our table was ready and we were quickly seated.Our waiter was polite and we had a good discussion about the city and activities. The menu had a good variety of Southern Food and our food started arriving 10-15 minutes after ordering. Our favorite was the Okra, Cheese Curds & Spam because of its tangy sweetness and how well combined the ingredients just felt like fireworks in our mouth. Their Gumbo was good but I've had homemade gumbo and it doesn't compare. Their Chicken Fried Steak was probably my least favorite of the dishes we ordered because I've just had better elsewhere.THE BEE KEEPERlavender & peach tea, Tom's Town gin, smoked hot honey, lemon, lavender sugarOKRA, CHEESE CURDS & SPAM crispy fried medley of okra, cheese curds, & chicken fried spam, toasted garlic, sweet & smokey ham jamSMOTHERED CHICKEN FRIED STEAK fried beef tenderloin, crawfish etouffee, trinity salsa, mashed potatoes, bacon braised collard greensAWARD WINNING GUMBOcreole chicken, andouille sausage, shrimp, crawfish, holy trinity, gumbo roux, white rice, crispy okra, crawfish salsa, chilled marinated crab claws

Food is overpriced! Flavor of the food is alright. I just think the price of the food was ridiculous.

Food was great ngl, food was fresh and flavorful. New to KC as well so this was a good start. Please show them some love I certainly did and will continue to. Service was fast and the vibes were there!

The food and service are exceptional! Their biscuits are the best I've ever eaten. Love the ambiance of the restaurant as well.
