Date night with my wife and had a wonderful experience. Loved the decor and the vibe. Felt like we had a taste of the French experience without leaving Oakland. The wine was fabulous as was the service and attention to detail. Highly recommend the cheese plate! Will visit again and often for date nights.

This has got to be one of the top 5 cutest bars in Oakland! I love the effort and detail they've put into designing this place. It's really an experience, not just a bar. I'm no wine expert, but I think their selection is great. And for anyone who isn't into wine, they have beer too!

The five of us went on a Thursday night around 6 and it was already lively. We tried sitting inside but it was a tight squeeze and really loud. We sat outside and one of us went to order. The food was quite delayed because I guess they were busy. We ordered a bottle of Sancerre which arrived promptly. Four of us were French natives and we found the wine and most of the food to be delicious. The onion soup was well seasoned with a perfect amount of Gruyère on top. The cup size was minuscule though. Also, the smallest and the tastiest quiche I’ve ever eaten. The salmon tartine was very tasty and well portioned. The cheese plate was perfect but the olives were tasteless and the nuts were stale. We were given napkins with silly sayings on it , mais franchement étant un resto français, ils auront pu nous servir avec qq mots français. Sinon, it was a good experience.

La Loulou is such a charming spot on Piedmont Avenue! The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, but what truly makes the experience special is the owner. She’s incredibly warm, welcoming, and makes you feel right at home. A perfect place to enjoy great wine and even better company!

Very fun establishment that brings life to the neighborhood! I would have liked to see more variety of wines. Perhaps offering flights and tastings would scratch the itch. We got the charcuterie board and 4 wines. Fun experience but prices aren’t at the point where I would come back weekly. Still very much worth coming out for a taste!
Fun wine bar with decent variety. A bit pricey for the small pours. We didn't have food so I can't comment on it. The vinho Verde followed by the sancerre pino were my favorites

Lovely place and lovely people! Awesome patio in the sun for an afternoon drink. I forgot my wallet there and they reached out to me to return it and even held onto it for a week. Merci!

Couldn’t wait to try out this new place, and was not disappointed! Really fun vibe, Nice selection of wines, and though I didn’t try the food menu, I’m looking forward to going back. Can’t wait to take my friends, it was a really fun place to sit and talk. Particularly like that they have outdoor tables as well…

Something Piedmont avenue was missing! Great vibe inside, bright and airy. Wine selection is deep and the food is fantastic. It’s open late too!

Such a lovely wine bar! I love that it does not fall into the typical French wine bar we can find in the Bay Area and I love that I can eat other typical French food (Raclette sandwich!). This makes this place very unique. I can sense the attention to details and it makes me feel cared for as a customer. I really love the decor, it's very fun and OMG the swing is so much fun!! I had such a great time.
