Red Lulu

Had I been a Yelp member when Red Lulus first opened I would have given it 4 or more stars, however since then it has really gone down hill.  Not only are the drinks weaker but the food is now mediocre.  It's not just the alcohol in the drinks that has gotten cheap, it's the little things.  You used to get frozen grapefruit with tequila as soon as you sat down, that no longer happens.  There also used to be cloth hand towels in the bathroom and they are gone.  Even the food is cheaper.  It's all so disappointing!

Had a great time dancing my butt off Friday night. It's very sexy in here. Even the velvet wallpaper feels nice. Touch it!

I was really excited to try this place as my friend raved about all the yummy food selections, but to our dismay, they no longer serve food. Strictly drinks.  What a Bummer.  I couldn't even get any goddamn chips n salsa!!!!!!

It was just all so Strange. We walked in at 10pm on a saturday night to find not a soul in the place.  The bartender was jumpy and awkward, and couldn't provide us with a drink menu. He merely pointed to the chalkboard that was 10 ft away, listing 4 different margaritas. Thanks? For a place only serving drinks, you would think a drink menu and more specials would be KEY.

The atmosphere was dim and sexual. The graffiti wall is pretty cool and I like the dispersed lounge areas.  I could see it being a chill spot, but I couldn't really get a good feel because it was so empty, and we were just turned off from disappointment.

Will I go back? Probably not because I live in Hamden; but if I was close by, I think I would give it another shot. It has potential, I guess.
