This is such a great gem of a restaurant. We went for brunch. Food and drinks were creative and delicious. Beyond that, the service was great. Our server was so friendly and kind.

Lula and Sadie’s is a charming restaurant with a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The space is creatively utilized with various seating sections, including a rooftop area and a bar. The food is described as amazing, with particular praise for the shrimp salad and shrimp and grits, which are considered some of the best in Durham. The restaurant supports local artists and hosts live jazz brunches, often featuring live music during Sunday brunch. On special occasions, guests may receive complimentary treats like sweet potato pie and red velvet cake. The menu includes dishes like fried chicken, fried green tomato appetizer with pimento cheese and bacon, and potato crusted catfish with buttered okra and black eye pea salad. The okra is highly recommended, and the crispy, tender catfish is well-liked. Customers mention that the catfish is excellent and the service friendly and attentive, making the overall experience enjoyable. Although some reviews point out that the prices are high and include charges like a 20% Cost of Living fee, many guests find the food and atmosphere worth returning for. The restaurant also offers exciting specials and a lively jazz brunch experience, making it a Durham gem that many look forward to visiting again.
