Not the worst tasting food in the world but terrible portion size for a burrito, given it was tiny. Also the tortilla was small and I asked for no pineapples on the al pastor but they still gave pineapples.

The company I work for caters from this place. Before I found out that I was eating Taco Lulu food at work I'd walk by this place but didn't know what this building was.
Since I found out it was a restaurant I decided to go eat there and I loved it, it was DELISH, so I went again the next day!
The next day I placed my order and stood by the pick up area. As I was waiting I happen to look and see why it was so slow I see the cook prepare my food with the same pair of gloves that he is handling everything around him, refrigerators, sink knobs, kitchen equipment, scratching his face and even pulled his pants up. I was turned off and decided that would be my last day eating there.
I ate my tacos but was grossed out. They were hot so I'm hoping any and all germs those gloves had were burned off.

More of a taqueria than a restaurant. Order at the counter and take your own food to your table sort of place. Service was friendly. Food was pretty good overall but was quite salty and seemed a bit over priced. Margaritas were okay, but holy crap they were expensive.
Unfortunately would not return, would not recommend to a friend.

Great food and friendly staff. The horchata wasn't cooled so that kinda sucked. But hey, it was fun!

They are so busy with online orders that it takes a long time to get your food, but the wait is worth when you taste the delicious tacos. I got the campechanos and pastor, my favourite was campechano 😛

Use to live this spot but today I will never come back, my tacos are cold and lettuce, tomatoes are just overly packed on them. I asked to sit at bar I would like to order a drink only for no one to serve me and when asked 20minutes later by the man with the helmet on, did I need anything I said yes he walked away and never came back and still no one approached me again or asked if I need anything else. But as soon as someone of another race asked for the very same thing they got the service.

$18 for 3 tacos that weren’t even cooked fresh is insane.

We were really looking forward to trying Taco Lulu, but it ended up being a huge letdown from the moment we walked in.
Despite being a full restaurant and bar with capacity for over 100 people, there were only two people working in the kitchen and one lady who seemed to just be cleaning. The place was packed, yet there was no table service — we had to take our own order at the counter.
After waiting over 25 minutes, they told us they were out of steak — which happened to be the main protein in nearly everything we had ordered. Our tab was over $100. Since we had already waited so long, we reluctantly agreed to swap the steak for carne al pastor. Unfortunately, the al pastor was a huge disappointment — watery, greasy meat with an odd chorizo-like flavor. Definitely not what we expected.
We also ordered horchata and Jamaica aguas frescas, but both were out of stock. I asked for a margarita, and even that was made incorrectly.
In the end, we didn’t enjoy the food or drinks at all and felt like we completely wasted our time and money. Between the poor staffing, bad communication, unavailable items, and low-quality food, this was one of the worst dining experiences I’ve had.
Definitely do not recommend. No idea how this place is so overrated
