3-course dinner $19.99
Lulu California Bistro, Palm Springs CA
This dessert was grocery store quality. Ugh, especially disappointing because I love good tiramisu.

Lobster ravioli – Lulu California Bistro
Ravioli stuffed with lobster meat, with a light tomato basil lobster cream sauce. 3-course dinner $19.99
Lulu California Bistro, Palm Springs CA
Ugh, this was kinda gross. The pasta was super soft and the lobster filling didn’t taste very fresh. The cream sauce was also flat and boring.
Wild mushroom soup – Lulu California Bistro
White truffle olive oil and chopped chives. 3-course dinner $19.99
Lulu California Bistro, Palm Springs CA
This soup did not look very appetizing, but it tasted all right. The texture was also a little off and was grainy. Definitely not my favorite.
Chicken piccata – Lulu California Bistro
Chicken breast sautéed with lemon caper sauce, served with mashed red skin potatoes, and asparagus. 3-course dinner $19.99
Lulu California Bistro, Palm Springs CA
Ugh, this wasn’t very good. The chicken was a bit dry and rubbery and the lemon caper sauce wasn’t very vibrant. Meh…
Vichyssoise soup – Lulu California Bistro
Potato and leek soup served cold. 3-course dinner $19.99
Lulu California Bistro, Palm Springs CA
This soup was ok, maybe a bit bland. I did like the texture of it though.
Black mussels – Lulu California Bistro
In white wine sauce with herbs and cheesy baguette. Happy hour $8.99
Lulu California Bistro, Palm Springs CA
The mussels were overcooked and tough to chew. Their flesh were also super small compared to their large shells – that’s always a bad sign… It’s hard to forgive poor quality and bad preparation when it comes to mussels.

Skinny margarita – Lulu California Bistro
1800 Silver tequila, agave nectar and fresh lime juice. $5.99
Lulu California Bistro, Palm Springs CA
Not quite sure what made this margarita “skinny”, but it tasted pretty good! Perhaps it’s because they didn’t use any sugary margarita mix. They serve it in a huge glass so I’m sure the large quantity negates any “skinny” promises.
Palm Springs Aerial Tramway. I got a little scared going up this thing! I have a tiny fear of heights.
Tower of avocado and tuna tartar – Lulu California Bistro
With pickled ginger, crispy wonton, seaweed, and wasabi. Happy hour $8.49
Lulu California Bistro, Palm Springs CA
This was another decent dish. The tuna quality wasn’t the best, but at least they tried to make the plate interesting. There was definitely plenty to eat.
Chicken lettuce wraps – Lulu California Bistro
Minced chicken, water chestnut, crispy noodles, and sprouts served with lettuce wraps. Happy hour $7.49
Lulu California Bistro, Palm Springs CA
This wasn’t the best chicken lettuce wrap I’ve ever had. In fact, it was just marginal. But the price was great and the fun, hip atmosphere at Lulu helps to make up for the mediocre food.
