    The service was 10/10. We were looked after by a blonde staff member who was incredibly friendly, attentive, and welcoming. The food arrived in a reasonable amount of time, and the atmosphere was excellent. The dishes were tasty, although we were expecting slightly more authentic Argentine flavours, especially in some of the signature dishes. Overall, the great atmosphere and outstanding service made it a wonderful experience, and we really enjoyed our visit.

    Really good quality food, the waitstaff were excellent, engaged and the perfect amount of chatty. It is a very small restaurant, so can be quite loud. Will be going back again!

    I’m always here for casual dining and have enjoyed every dining experience with them. That’s why I decided to celebrate my birthday here and bring my family with me. We absolutely enjoyed the food, of course, and the service was exceptional as always. The vibe was the best because we could be a little loud and truly enjoy the celebration for my birthday. Food recommendations: Cabra nachos, Calamari, Chicken Wings, Burrito and Quesadilla. Love love their Sangria!!

    We had the most delightful lunch at Lulo & we felt the family owners bent over backwards to make our experience enjoyable. The service was meticulous, offering descriptions of family recipe dishes & new taste suggestions to try. The Indian Columbian/South American influences combined many ingredients, all fresh daily, & subtle flavours to enjoy. We will definitely be back & would not hesitate to recommend this interesting bar/restaurant, with the most friendly service you can find.

    We loved our first experience in the restaurant for my husbands birthday. We shared a juicy and perfectly cooked steak with sides and had a lovely surprise of a birthday cake. We recommend it for a more quiet dinner experience around St Kilda
