Made a reservation for 2 at 645pm on a Thursday. Busy restaurant. Several tables available. Seated at an uncomfortably small table for 2 near the bathroom hallway. No particular ambiance at this table. Server, Olive, was exceptional. She made the dinner experience for us. Good food, noisy restaurant.
Food and drinks were amazing. I sat at the bar. They were pretty busy so it took a while to order but once I ordered drinks and food, I received it very quickly. Bartenders were super friendly.
I'm a foodie and organize my own Dining Meetup group. Lulu is one of my favorite restaurants in the area. I can't decide if the Thai or sushi menu is my fav. All their dishes are superb.
Lots of options and great service at a reasonable price. Great food presentation. The Asian fusion menu was bland with a large amount of spicy options and a bit overloaded, e.g., extra unexpected veggies that didn't add to the dish. Was surprised to pay $7 to add pork belly to a dish and only got 3 pieces. Appetizers were all great. Sushi rolls were rolled beautifully with great portions.
We decided to go to LuLu Bang Bang for our department holiday luncheon. Unfortunately, so did everyone else in the Triangle. There was no parking to be had. The dining room was way too loud. They didn't have hot tea. The service was fine. The food was good when we got it. It was just a bad time to be going to the restaurant for a group lunch.
Excellent experience for a Saturday night dinner with the hubby. The food was fantastic and included the bang, bang shrimp, honey teriyaki chicken, Mongolian beef and ube cake. Also tried a couple of mocktails which were on the expensive side, but were delicious. Staff was also very attentive.
We have eaten at LuLu BangBang many times. This was a Saturday night and they were very busy. The service was good but a bit delayed and the food was good, as always. We each ordered a glass of wine and, for the quality of the wine, a bit pricey per glass. The pours were lousy. I mentioned this and was told their pours were 6 ounces and it was because of the "large glasses". I didn't push it but if you order wine, choose a bottle. That way the bartenders don't need to worry about "large glasses" or whether they need glasses.
We went to LuLu BangBang with high hopes for a good chinese/asian dinner out. As soon as we stepped in the doors we were assaulted by a din. We managed ok, despite the noise. The Smoked Old Fashioned cocktails were delicious. But of the several dishes we ordered (calamari, BBQ Ribs, BBQ Steak, and Mongolian Beef Bowl) only the latter was satisfactory. The calamari was overly doughy and the rest were too salty by far.
My husband had never eaten sushi before and LuLu BangBang was a perfect introduction! Thanks.
Food was good, BUT it was so loud we could not even hold a conversation. It is a very large open room and sound carries far. We had to yell at each other to try to talk. Terrible. Will not go back.

Mmmm sushi and crazy good noodles! Can't beat the flavors here at Lulu Bang Bang. If any of my friends or family are in the area, always recommend them stopping by and trying all the different flavors. Got myself a Philly Roll and the Mongolian Beef Noodles 🤤

Food was great, reasonably priced and relatively quick for lunchtime. Wait staff was attentive and accommodating. One meal (curry with chicken) was served without meat, which was unexpected. The price was reduced accordingly. We will visit again, surely. (Evil Noodles with beef is the bomb!)

Serve way too eager to bring food. But food was incredible. Food alone is worth going there.
This was my third time at LuLu's. Sadly, each time was not as good as the previous. This is mostly due to the service. It's slow and we've now had a new server and without shadowing someone they we're limited on knowledge of the food.
Lovely staff, very engaging & honest, food was fine, fresh & quick enough, just not more than three stars
