Lulu’s Local Eatery

Tried them while at LouFest this past weekend and such good food! Friendly and cool staff, and a nice menu to choose from. Ended up with two Peking duck tacos which had so much flavor and were delicious down to the last bite. Also, tried their orange chicken which was pretty tasty as well! Glad to try them out!

From the vegan nachos to the black bean burger, my taste buds EXPLODE at the mere sight of LuLu’s. Thoughtfully, artfully prepared cuisine with a spotlight on vegan eats certain to turn even the meatiest of eaters heads.

Had a quick bit while at the farmers market and it was out of this world. I was so full but I still wanted more!

This was my first time eating at the Lulu’s Local Eatery Truck at the Tower Grove Park Farmer’s Market and it was absolutely divine. I ordered their sweet potato black bean burger with special chipotle sauce and chips… Can you say «vegetarian paradise?» My mouth surged with a burst of savory and flavorful tastes in every bite. For starters their burger was on pretzel bread and beautiful to look at… Hands down this was the best food truck experience I ever had, not to mention delish. Check it out if you get the chance; it’s worth every cent!

This is my favorite food truck hands down. I honestly don’t even bother with any of the other ones unless I want dessert or something.
Like many others on here, my favorite is the sweet potato falafel. It was recommended to me by a Lulu’s fan and the moment I took my first bite, you should’ve seen my face. It was HEAVENLY. And so filling! My other go-​to is their fries with chili (I forget what the exact name is on the menu). But I can’t say I’ve ever had anything from their food truck that I didn’t like. (Ok that’s not true… I didn’t like the lavender lemonade but that’s because I don’t like lemonade in general and thought that the lavender would somehow make it better).

I am glad Denver has an awesome plethora of food trucks, or I might cry that Lulu’s is so far away in Missouri. Thank goodness I visit St Louis at least twice a year! I was introduced to this awesome vegan food slinging truck at a private party they were ‘catering’ to in Tower Grove park. They had two main items, and two side items to choose from. The Sweet Potato Falafel or The Black Bean burger, and for the sides The Avocado Boat or French Fries. I chose the sweet potato falafel (served in a large pita with some veggies and a nice sauce) and the avocado boat (half an avocado stuffed with quinoa and topped with a yummy chipotle sauce).
There was a lot of us at this party, and everyone was hungry. The service was superb, all smiles and patience, and you did not wait long for your food order to be called out to you by your first name. Even the heftiest of meat lovers were satisfied with the taste and quality of their meal from this truck. When I come back to town I hope to pass this place, and if so, I better be hungry!

Updating to 5 stars … because I think Lulu’s deserves some real credit for what they do. I was looking for something that healthy, but really didn’t want another depressing cold salad with nasty dressing (you know what I mean). Lulu’s was at City Garden today, and I tried them again — this time got a skinny version of the black bean burrito. They made black beans, rice, sweet potatoes, and mushrooms taste AMAZING. The spicy avocado sauce really makes this dish special. I love you Lulu’s! Yes, I will pay $ 8 for a really well put together healthy salad!

Summary: Great vegan food at prices comparable to other Downtown lunch spots. If you’re vegetarian/​vegan and in the area for lunch it’s a must.
I’ve been to the Lulu’s food truck a few times since I started working downtown and tried something different each time. As a vegan (2+years) I’m always looking for new options and Lulu’s was a terrific find! Be sure to check
to see where they will be during the week.
Of all the options, my two current faves are the tacos (2 are more than filling but if I’m starving, maybe 3) and the BBQ jackfruit sandwich. The tacos include the amazing «creamy avocado sauce» and the vegetables are all seasoned to perfection. The BBQ jackfruit is bizarre, mostly because it’s the exact consistency and look of pulled pork! Weird, but very tasty and reminiscent of old Fourth of July cookouts; the Pappy’s BBQ sauce is a great touch as well.
Service is always friendly and quick and they accept credit cards.

My boyfran and I were running around Forest Park and treated ourselves with some LuLu’s after our run. I really wanted to like this food truck because I totally support what they stand for, however, I thought it was a little overprice for a $ 7 sandwich. I guess it’s somewhat understandable since all their items on the menu are made from scratch and they use local ingredients. I’ll stop being a cheap-​o.
My boyfriend had the tacos which consist of black beans, mushrooms, onion, sweet potato, and kale on a soft shell corn tortilla. Also it comes with their house made spicy hummus and creamy avocado sauce. They combination of ingredients were interesting and flavorful. I had the Eggplant Po’boy which came in a flaky french bread. The bread was delicious but I thought the sandwich lacked a little flavor.
Overall, I think Lulu’s would be a one-​time try for me. I didn’t hate it but I didn’t love it.

Bad service. My daughter heard about food trucks and wanted to try it out. She is a vegetarian and thought a food truck would be cool. I heard this one was not that good but okay for vegetarians.
I drove a long away for her to try this truck out. Their website said closed at 6:30, we arrived at 6:25.
They said NO.
I told them the situation, they they said NO.
I explained again, the manager/​owner said NO.
We enjoyed a meal at Cardwells instead. Best veggie burgers in town. I don’t think I will try this truck again. I think the staff tried to help but the owner/​manager said NO.
Not a good experience.

O.M.G. thats all I have to say. The food is absolutely amazing! I love the fact they have frequent buyer cards! I am lucky to only be around the med school campus twice a week in order to control my Lulus addiction! No complaints!

Lulu and her crew serve up some of the best food I’ve ever had. Amazing sweet potato falafel, quinoa bowls, volcano fries and flatbread. Everyone on the truck is so nice and it’s really an added bonus that all of their food is vegan, much of it is gluten-​free, and that they utilize natural and organic ingredients.
Also, can we talk about the fact that they have a GARDEN on top of their food truck? So rad.

BEST veggie burger I’ve ever eaten! I ordered the sweet potato black bean veggie burger, with fries. This burger is better than some (quite a few, actually) hamburgers I’ve had. It had rice, beans, sweet potatoes, and a crispy breading. Seriously, order it, you won’t regret it.
And I happened to just be reading the truck and I saw that all their ingredients are organic. Um, what? Their prices are on par with the rest of the food trucks, and cheaper than quite a few others I’ve seen. And I have to agree with Sarah S, they were really friendly.

Looove the falafel, the tzaziki sause was perfect, and I am very picky about that being from eastern Europe! I am really exited to find them again. You can check their location every day on FB.

love the fact the food trucks come to washu med on scott and taylor. if you’re in the area, you should keep it on rotation. lulu’s appealed to me as the healthy food truck alternative. the sweet potato falafel is huge and amazing. don’t be fooled healthy eating doesn’t mean bland tasting rabbit food.
another plus-​they accept credit cards

I’m not going to repeat what everyone has already said about this food truck. You get that it is vegetarian friendly and the eco-​friendly concept.
I got the sweet potato falafel wrap that came with falafel, greens, cucumbers, onions which I picked off, and tzaziki sauce all stuffed in a pita. I honestly don’t know how I feel about it. All the ingredients were fresh, but to me seemingly bland too. I think I might be the wrong kind of critic to review this place since I’m not on the band wagon for knowing good vegetarian food options. I think maybe if they would have portioned the falafel and the tzakiki sauce a little bit more evenly, it might have been better.
Service was quick and friendly. I liked that. I didn’t like that it cost $ 7, maybe worth $ 5 or 6, but not $ 7 in my opinion.
It was fun trying a new food truck and I would recommend it to people who are into that kind of thing.

Ok, let me just… freak out about this for a second. I’ve got a really big obsession with food trucks in general, so I take it upon myself to try them all (like collecting baseball cards). Today was Lulu’s day.
First off, I love the concept of this truck. The fact that they grow most of their herbs and strawberries on the top of the truck itself? Stellar. The fact that the three people who operate this truck are BFF’s and actually make awesome food and ran with an idea to open said truck? Super stellar. The fact that the sweet potato falafel I ate was so good that at the last bite I turned to Aimee and said, «I’m so upset this is over»? Out of this world stellar.
The food is organic and you can tell. The taste in one word: fresh. It’s crisp, refreshing and the falafel was sweet, met with cucumber and a cool tzaziki sauce brought up the savory and rich flavors. Roll that all up in warm pita bread and we’re talking about one fine dining morsel.
Portions are big and the price isn’t bad at all, they use sustainable materials for packaging (biodegradable – awesome!) and I really like their website layout (I’m a little geeky!)

I love the idea behind this truck. The little roof-​top garden is wonderful, and they proudly state that they use as many local ingredients as possible. As someone who spent nearly 8 years as a vegetarian I can appreciate the guts it takes to serve an all-​vegetarian menu from a truck — when I think of «food truck» my mind goes to burgers, sausages, and other meaty offerings.
That said, an idea only works if its supported by good food, and sadly I found the food here to be just okay. The boyfriend and I tried the sweet potato falafel wrap and the mexican quinoa bowl. The falafel was the best thing we ate, though as the boyfriend correctly noted, it’s basically just fried cumin-​flavored sweet potato, not true falafel. The quinoa bowl was tasty, but it was nothing special and it just didn’t have enough substance for me to really call it a meal.
Now for the part where I sound kind of crazy. I couldn’t help noticing that everything we ate tasted really… healthy. Now that’s great if you’re someone who actively seeks out health-​food all the time (you would love this truck), but I’m willing to bet that a lot of people (myself included) want to notice that their food tastes good before they notice that it tastes healthy.
However, if you consider yourself a health-​food person, you could do a lot worse than Lulu’s.

I ordered the sweet potato falafel wrap, It came with a generous amount of falafel, greens, cucumbers, onions (but I got mine without), and tzaziki sauce, wrapped in a fresh and thick pita. This portion was generous and more than enough for lunch, paired with a tasty berry smoothie. They also have a few bowls with quinoa or rice, another wrap, hummus and pita, and more. I am in love with the concept, and am trying to figure out how I can make a garden on top of my car now! Oh well, a girl can dream. I will definitely be back, soon, to try their offerings. What other food truck can a vegetarian eat their way through the menu at? None! Love!

I really really want to like this food truck!
I love what they are doing (or trying to)… They use 100% Biodegradable materials, use local fresh organic ingredients and make whatever possible from scratch. They also have a garden on the roof of their truck (very cool!!!)
I got the «large» mexican quinoa bowl. It was pretty good! A cold salad… my friend got the sweet potato falafel which was better.
Maybe I wasn’t in the mood for totally healthy food but I thought it was good… not great! They do make good fruit smoothies!
I’ll definitely try it again.
