It was fabulous!! I got the pecan praline pie. One of my sisters got an enormous piece of pumpkin spice cake and had to take half with her. My other sister got chocolate fondue with bananas, strawberries, macaroons and shortbread cookies. We sat outside enjoying the great weather.

The desserts here are really good. I always get the chocolate covered strawberries. You have the option of white or dark chocolate or can mix. You get three per serving. I don't know where they get their strawberries from, but they are always sweet. juicy, and plump.
They have a few desserts that are always in house - strawberry suspension cake and white chocolate chip cheesecake - and then they have some that are constantly rotated out. There is fondue available and cheese plates.
If you're planning on going during a Friday or Saturday night, be prepared to wait. Seating and atmosphere is very cozy and can be on the intimate side.
If you're a chocolate fiend like me, then I suggest the sipping chocolate. It's an espresso cup filled to the brim with melted dark chocolate and topped with whip cream for $2. It's comfort and happiness in a tiny cup with a tiny spoon and saucer.
There is some confusion from my side. I tried to do a reservation over the phone once, but was told that they don't do reservations. When I stopped by one day, I saw two tables pushed together with a reservation sign on the table...
On busy nights, there will be a hostess outside who will take your name and number if there is a wait. They use a popular app to keep track and notify people when their tables are available and how long their wait is (the name escapes me). It's nifty because instead of waiting around for a table, it gives you the opportunity to go mingle somewhere else.
The waitstaff is very young - we're a college town and SCAD is located in downtown Savannah - and sometimes not very attentive. They could be helping to prepare the desserts - not really sure. Don't surprised if your desserts take some time to get to your table - especially if there are a lot of you in one group.

My husband and I walked to LuLu's Chocolate Bar to sit down and enjoy an afternoon snack. The girl behind the counter wanted to know what we wanted. Didn't even give us a chance to look let alone sit down. My husband told her what he wanted. She said is that all with me still looking. So I made a decision real quick. We still hadn't been in the place 3 minutes! Then she puts it in a to go container. I asked about drinks and she huffily stomps over and hands me a menu! I order a hot chocolate which she unhappily fixes and puts in a to go cup! By this time we figure we were not welcome and left! We are an older couple and we're dressed nicely. It was hours before they were scheduled to close also. I would NOT RECCOMEND this place! You are not wanted there.

This place is so cute! We came here in the afternoon after we had been drinking and needed a little caffeine pick me up, but it is so cute for a date! It has a full bar and serves the most delicious desserts.
I could see how at night it would provide the perfect atmosphere for a date! I absolutely loved this place. We had the Smore double espresso. It was the perfect combination if sweet and coffee. On their menu they even had coffee drinks spiked with alcohol if we had wanted to continue drink (but we had a long day ahead of us and my hubs is a light weight.. JK honey in case you read this... You are the man & I love you 💋). Anyway, their desserts were mouthwatering... I thought about licking the display case but my husband general is stays embarrassed by me so I didn't want to spoil the afternoon. Men listen up, if you are trying to score some points ... this is the place. This could also be a really fun girls night out, leave the hubs home with the kids night (wink wink). I say this place is a must go to.

We had a group of 12. Having come here before with a large group, we let them know at the get-go it would be okay to table us in groups of 4 or so. They gave us a 45-minute wait time, so we hung out, waiting. We watched as they seated several tables of people who came after we did, into tables of 2-4, even 6. Finally, after an hour and 15 minutes of watching customers leave where we COULD have been seated, but were NOT, we confronted the "hostesses" and were fed a bunch of lame excuses for, essentially, a lack of rational crowd management skills. We did (10 of us -one couple gave up and left), eventually, get seated in tables next to each other (after about an hour and a half wait time).
Undeniably, Lulu's Chocolate Bar has fantastic delicacies and beverages, and when we finally got served, we did enjoy them. The mismanagement of the "hostesses" and the unapologetic excuses, when we repeatedly (at least 4 times) expressed a willingness to be split up into separate groups, left this reviewer with a strong (unfortunately) negative impression of this business. Perhaps a change in management could improve the attitude? How about some training?
