Lulu's Bar à Pâtes / Pasta Bar is widely praised for fresh, house-made pasta, flavorful sauces and generous portions that make each dish feel substantial. Diners appreciate the casual, welcoming atmosphere, the visible pasta machine, and service that is efficient, friendly and attentive whether dining in or taking out. The menu invites customization, with options to choose pasta shape, sauce and toppings, and the quality of ingredients and al dente texture is frequently highlighted. Value is commonly cited, with large portions for the price and dishes arriving hot and well seasoned. Some reviews mention a lack of vegan protein options and gluten-free pasta, and a few note crowding and noise during peak times or busy deliveries, but these do not overshadow overall satisfaction. Overall, Lulu's seems to deliver reliable, high-quality pasta, strong portions, and a vibrant, welcoming environment that draws regulars and visitors alike.
I really enjoyed the pesto pistachio pasta with hot honey. The pesto had a rich, nutty flavor from the pistachios, & the hot honey added a subtle sweetness with a nice kick of spice. The sauce was creamy & coated the pasta perfectly. It's a creative dish that balances sweet, savory, & spicy really well. The service also really quick & friendly I would definitely order it again.
Love their pasta 🍝 never disappoint 🤤. Only down side is because it's so good there is often a line up & get less chance to be able to have a table to eat in. 😕 But definitely worst the hip ❤? don't be scared of the line in summer just grab & go out & seat. 😌
Lulu's Pasta Bar is hands down our family's favourite spot for healthy fast food-& for good reason. Their fresh pasta made with quality, wholesome ingredients is always delicious, & the portions are incredibly generous. Whether we're grabbing takeout or eating in, the experience is always amazing. We love watching the staff in action in the restaurant-so efficient, friendly, & passionate about what they do. You can truly feel how much the owners care about both the quality of their food & their customer service. It shows in every detail. Highly recommend!
Pasta was amazing, no complaints. Great portions, a bit pricey. The prices are similar to dine in restaurants. The service was terrible, the cashier was very rude after realizing we didn't understand French. The wait time in line is over 10 minutes, & waiting for food is another 15. The place itself is very small, & not ideal for dining in.

The pasta is honestly super delicious, especially when you consider the cost & the big portion it comes in.
Staff is super nice & they are very kind when you try to speak French & butcher it, like I do. I feel very good when I come here!
My kids love this place. It's got delicious pasta made with Italian semolina, which my gut handles better than pasta from North America (which is laden with Roundup). The atmosphere is also cozy & inviting.
So why 4 stars? My whole family tries to eat plant based, but there is no vegan protein option for their pasta. I was assured that the wheat itself has a lot of protein, but for vegans who want an extra boost, there are zero options. Some ground veggie meat is simple to include as an add-on. With almost all Montreal chain restaurants serving at least one vegan protein option (even McDonald's McVeggie exists), I think Lulu can do better.
Food is okay, just very caloric & no real nutritional value & oily. Well cooked. The atmosphere is decent. I do feel that it's slightly overpriced as 1 portion comes out to about 20$ after tax & tip, same cost as pasta in a restaurant. Except this one is kinda closer to a quick stop vs a restaurant. But the quality was okay.
Discovered this really lovely nice pasta place ^^ They suggested me well what to eat & yeah fresh pasta makes the difference 😀 & the staff really nice & helpful ^^ Not sure I'll have the time to get my fidelity card full before I take the plane but I definitely gonna come back before I leave to taste another plate 😉

Have you ever wanted a bucket of pasta bigger than your head after walking around Montreal all day? Perfect eat here. The food is fresh, warm, amazing, & they put so much cheese when you ask! The staff are beyond adorable & just a great vibe. Be warned is IS in fact, a bucket, not a cup, of noodles.
Absolutely delicious! The service was very quick & friendly. I ordered the creme taco pasta for takeout. The portion size was huge for the price. I couldn't finish it all! The sauce was creamy & well seasoned. The fresh pasta was tasty as well.
Foodgasm guaranteed. I had the tacos pasta & GODDAMN! That made my eyes roll backward. It was exquisite. Fresh ingredients, fresh pastas. Perfect cooking of the pastas.
The service ? Excellent! From beginning to end they kept coming asking me If I needed more parmesan.
It's bad that they don't have Lulu's in my city. I wish there was.
The only cons that I want to share is that I was disappointed that they didn't have gluten-free pastas, but other than that. It is a fantastic place.
