So, the restaurant sits in a renovated bakery in downtown Durham. It's a very open space with plenty or seating. Oh, this space also has a very spacious bar area. The atmosphere is nice. We parked on the street on the backside of the restaurant - that was convenient. The ambiance was chill. No pretentiousness. Just a nice casual restaurant with splendid food. They had several monthly specials to partake of. The descriptions of the food are amazing and I could not decide between the smoked pumpkin soup and the speckled trout. So, I got both! The soup was a nice portion and had a hint of Indian spice. The cranberry goat cheese was an excellent accompaniment to this comforting soup. Now, the speckled trout was amazing. The caramelized scalloped sweet potatoes with the pureed corn . . . so good. The trout was seasoned well and played well with the sweetness of the potatoes and the corn. We will definitely be back. All in all, from the ambiance, to the food and the service, this was a very good experience.

Everything was wonderful from start to finish. The restaurant is gorgeous, the staff is attentive and kind, and the food is spectacular! I had the chicken & red velvet waffle, my boyfriend had the French toast (we each had a mimosa flight as well). Highly recommend all of the above! Special shout out to our server Radley, he was amazing!!

Lula & Sadie’s is such a treat. It’s a great date spot day or night. We sat on the roof top at the end of September and it was such a vibe! My husband and I truly enjoyed the experience and can’t wait to go back! I have loved the meatloaf at this spot for many years and it never misses. My husband can’t wait to go back and try the cowboy steak! The staff was so helpful and welcoming!

This is a great new spot. The place itself is very nicely decorated. We ordered brunch food but the dinner menu looked great as well. It was a unique southern menu. I also loved their drink menu. This is a place I would take visiting guests. Great food and great drink options, including dessert drinks! There’s not much direct parking at the place but there’s a shopping center next door where we parked no problem.
