Lula

One of the best meals I’ve had in Bergen County. A really elevated dining experience with nice options at every course. The focaccia was great to start with, every single salad was fantastic, I loved the pork Milanese, but the homemade gnocchi was incredible. Lemon tart to finish was balanced and elegant. I’m excited to try more things on the menu next time I’m here.

Dined there on a Fri evening Jan 9th for our 4yr wedding anniversary. So glad we did.. the experience was superb. Incredible food some of the best we’ve ever had (I’ll be saying this a lot and we eat out quite a bit so this is impressive lol)… presentation and flavor really stand out. BYOB a plus. Generous portion sizes, very friendly and attentive staff, unique modern upscale intimate ambience, very clean restaurant, great use of space with well thought out seating arrangements. DO NOT skip out on the focaccia with bagna cauda… something so simple really stands out (the best we’ve ever had). Ordered multiple entrees each one was a hit. I believe they have a rotating seasonal menu but if you see the chocolate mousse with pralines it is a MUST. BEST WE’VE EVER HAD. Restaurant very easy t

Review for Lula – Ridgewood, NJ Lula is such a great addition to Ridgewood. The space is modern and cozy, giving it a relaxed but elevated feel, and I love that it’s BYOB. We started with the focaccia and kale salad — both were excellent. The focaccia was warm and flavorful, and the salad was bright and perfectly balanced with anchovy aioli, grapes, and pine nuts. The hamachi crudo was another standout, with a charred pineapple broth that really made the flavors pop. For mains, we had the Atlantic halibut with cockles, the rigatoni with pork ragu, and the coulotte steak. Each one was beautifully done — the fish was delicate and fresh, the pasta was rich and comforting with whipped ricotta and Parmigiano, and the steak came with pomme purée and crispy sunchoke chips that tied the whole d

Had a very nice dinner at Lula in Ridgewood. Staff were very friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. Ambiance was cozy (ceiling was low), looked clean, and not cluttered. They don’t have drinks with alcohol but they have a local tie up with a nearby liquor store where you can order and they will get it. It’s BYOB and we brought our own wine and ordered an Italian soda which was very good. All of the food that we ordered were delicious. We had the focaccia, burrata, apple kohlrabi salad, and kale salad to start. Then halibut, pappardelle, and pork chop as mains (the pork chop was huge!). Then for dessert we had the meringue tart and chocolate mousse. Spent about $280 for a party of four and left >20% gratuity. Highly recommended.

All the right components - fresh ingredients, creativity and intrigue. We found that most every dish was missing just one element except the house focaccia with its whipped herb butter which was the star. We ordered prosciutto & melon (salty and sweet but it needed a nut or another type of crunch) summer squash (perfect) and the whipped burrata (great taste but no salt). For entrees my wife had the salad which she commented was decent and I had the halibut & cockles which melted in my mouth. Overall, stick with the appetizers. Incredibly creative pairings and ingredients but for a posh restaurant, the chefs need to work on their basics (salt, acid, texture) to ensure dishes have the perfect balance.
