Lui Lui

Fabulous! Lots of gluten free options and everything we got was delicious

I took my brother (who was visiting from Illinois) to lunch at Lui Lui's. It was also my first time dining at Lui Lui's. There was plenty of free parking and after lunch (around 2:00), so there were not many cars. The atmosphere was pleasant, and the menu was diverse enough to satisfy my vegetarian brother and my carnivorous self. They also offer a LOT of gluten-free items. We each had lemonade and a glass of water. The glasses were large and ice cold. Very refreshing! We had fresh crusty bread with olive oil and spices to dip the bread into. I'd had that before years ago, and this was new to my brother. I was happy to find that that was offered here. The waitress was very pleasant and also very patient. We hadn't been there before and we needed a lot of time to study the menu and then more time to decide what delectable dish to order. I opted for a garden salad for my side, less any mushrooms, and minus tomatoes. I think my brother had soup?? I can't remember, but regardless of what he ordered for a side, he enjoyed it. I thoroughly enjoyed my fresh, crisp salad as well. My brother had the LUI PRIMA, and I opted for the EXPRESS LUI LUI. Both were plentiful and delicious!! We left very full, and my brother took his leftovers for later. He remarked how long it had been since he enjoyed a meal that much because apparently it's hard to find tasty vegetarian meals unless you count puzza. I guess he has his fill of pizza? I ate all of mine! I could have taken some home, but it was just too good to stop eating! If you left hungry, it was your own fault! I will be going back to Lui Lui's and maybe trying something different, though I enjoyed my choice so much, I am eager to go back for more of the same. It wasn't busy, so it was very relaxing without the hustle and bustle atmosphere. Our waitress was very attentive and checked on us often. She even offered us more bread (which my brother was enjoying very much and ate most of it), and we wanted more. If you are looking for a nice Italian meal, and especially if you require gluten-free choices, I highly recommend Lui Lui's, be you carnivore or vegetarian. I'm looking forward to returning.
