LuLu's Pizza

My word. Has everyone been keeping this place a secret from me? I’ve had Lulu’s on my mental “go here” list for nearly a year. My family and I walked over last night and had the best pizza we’ve ever had. Sourdough crust is what we make at home, so that was the draw for us. Lulu’s sets a high bar and absolutely nails the execution.
We had the bahn mi and the classic. Exceptional all around, along with the service. We loved being able to sit at a table by the window and talk while the pizza was being made.
This is important to note: I’ve been type 1 diabetic for 36 years, nearly my entire life. Pizza is the obstacle my disease can never overcome. But — sourdough crust makes a world of difference in how my blood sugar behaves in the 24-hour post-pizza window. This, paired with my vegan-ish tendencies keep me on track. I ordered my pizza with no cheese + no meat and I was delighted that the owner didn’t flinch. Lulu’s absolutely passes my diabetic pizza challenge and I am so grateful to have a place this exceptional, welcoming, and overall delightful nearby.
Pro-tip: Get a side of the garlic confit and put it on truly everything. All of it.
Going back very (very) soon. See you there.

Really outstanding family owned pizza joint. It's unfortunately sandwiched between vacant buildings and Maurice's "ode to a parking ramp" styled corporate soul sucker of a building. So the views aren't great, but the service, art stuffs, and the freaking pizza is all awesome. The pizza my friend...is "chef's kiss." I've had pizza all over, and lived in New Haven for a bit, and this is right up there. It's missing the coal fire taste, but it is a very, very good pizza. The sauce and crust cooked too perfection and the toppings are plentiful. 10/10 would smash another couple of slices for lunch any day.

Best pizza in town. Sourdough crust, excellent fresh ingredients. We'll definitely be back!

If I had one word to describe the Pizza I just ate, it would have to be phenomenal. Sure there’s plenty of other pizza places in town, if you’re looking for the bare minimum. The minute I walked in the door I could smell how good it was gonna be. First time at Lulu’s and definitely not my last!

Duluth has several excellent pizza places and LuLu's is my favorite! It is a family-owned restaurant and a hidden gem. Their sourdough crust is amazing. When I share the pizza with others people love the unique pizza flavors and want to know where the pizza is from. I always get requests to order from LuLu's again. My personal favorite pizzas here are the La Chiva and the Pesto Paradise. Yum!

Yumm!
Pizza was delicious.
Loved the crust and the garlic lemon dipping sauce.
Would go back in a heartbeat.

Get the medium because: Yes you can eat in in the car.

Call the store if they are close the the end of the night, the online won’t take an order but those lovely workers will accept an order 30 minutes to close for pickup!

Lulu is a perfect end to any night out on the town or late night passing through town. ( we stop when er we can)

PLUS, because we have tried it as travelers- a medium pizza still works with the passenger seat guest managing the slices and the box. (Ask for plates and napkins)

Give yourself the best! And car pizza is a thing…. It’s better than ANY fast food garbage you would be tempted to eat late night.

Pizza crust is on point and best fresh to bear the sog-factor that starts in every pizza box in just a few minutes. This treasure when you get it fresh is its crisp crust and the garlic confit is spectacular, so just invite it into your ingredient roster. And there is SPICE and that’s hard to find in MN.

It’s a gem in the city for sure.

Killer pizza place, unique and sells slices. Perfect for a quick lunch. On top of being amazingly delicious, the owners are kind and incredibly friendly. They spotlight local artists and rotate art every once in a while. I love seeing the new art. Love this place

My sister and I split "La Chiva" and it was out of this world. As avid pizza (and beet) lovers it so fun to try. It was made fresh to order and came out super quick. The man working the store was really friendly and helpful when picking out which type to get. Can't wait to go back the next time we're in Duluth. We're gonna try the Bahn Mi next time!

The jerk pizza I had was so good. The small personal pizza size was perfect for dinner. It was thin crust and loaded with toppings which is exactly how I like my pizza. The staff was really friendly and patient while I figured out what to order. I'll definitely be back for dinner after work again.

An absolutely must! Late night impromptu stop right before close with a hope of getting to order something.

The owner (1 of 1 employee) welcomed me graciously and accommodated.

He was limited on supply as it was the end of the night, and so I asked for his recommendation. To be honest, I have no idea what “flavor” this is - but I do know it’s quite possibly the best pizza I’ve had, certainly the best in quite sometimes great flavors, the perfect amount of spice - the sourdough based crust has just the right a lot of crisp, yes the perfect amount of chewiness.

Even better than the pizza though was the 10 minute conversation we had while I waited. Places like this matter. People like this matter. If you’re looking for something craft, something original - this is a non-negotiable. Try it out and support this local business!

The best pizza and breadsticks in town!

I moved to Duluth 2 months ago and have ordered 4 or 5 times already. :) We have ordered many styles, all have been delicious and full of flavor. The Banh Mi ( pictured) is our favorite so far. We will be back!

My husband and I came to Duluth for the day from Faribault, and we ate here because we like to support small businesses, and the reviews were great. I am SO glad we tried it! We went for lunch, there is limited seating inside (4 tables I think), and we got the last table. As we ate, many people came in to grab to-go slices. We ordered a small Lulu's Special (I think that was what it was called) and it was plenty for two adults. There are also ready made slices for just a few dollars, which in hindsight would have been enough as they are good size slices. The pizza itself was delicious! The sausage has a kick to it (which I love!) and the crust was nice and crisp (a flaky crisp, not a cardboard crisp). There was only one person working, and I said to him "You've got this by yourself!" and he said that was typical, as he is the owner and does it all. We chatted for a bit and I found out that he opened right before the pandemic hit, and he navigated through it, and remains open! This will definitely be a regular spot for us to hit when we come to town! Please support your local small businesses!

Love the unique pizzas they have. I highly recommend the la chiva. I just wish the crusts were softer.

The crust, the special Lulu’s garlic sauce, and buffalo mozzarella were phenomenal! We had the Margherita pizza and it seriously is one of the best pizzas we’ve ever had!

I stopped in on my lunch break today, ordered the 14” margherita pizza to go, and was out of there before my meter expired. The pizza looked great, my hubby & I both thought it was delicious, and I think I spent just under $20 on the pizza and a couple canned beverages. Not bad for a lunch for 2! :)

We did a COVID-curbside order from LuLu's, looking for a good takeaway option while staying in Duluth for a week. Ordered the pesto and the banh mi pizzas and neither one disappointed in the least! Both were huge on flavor, delicious, and wildly different. The banh mi pizza was a little on the leaky side, but ultimately it didn't matter much for our happiness, and YMMV on that, probably. The tomatoes on the pestro had a delicious in-your-face balsamic kick that really complimented the rest of the pizza without dominating it.

I guess they're still a relatively new joint, but they deserve more buzz! If they had a location in our native St. Louis, they'd be as unique there as they are here.

EDIT: Oh, I almost forgot! One of the most standout parts of the pizza was the crust, which was absolutely delicious. You'd be insane to leave the crust behind with these guys!

This is our FAVORITE local pizza to order for our date nights in. It is always hot and the ingredients are fresh. They are very generous with their portion sizes and toppings. They have lots of different and unique flavors. Two of our favorites are the jerk chicken and pesto paradise.

The pizza was outstanding! I've never had a sourdough pizza crust. FYI... Now I'm a huge fan of it. The girl at the counter was extremely friendly and offered her recommendations. I ended up getting the Buff-a-Lu. The flavor was great and the crust was top tier! I definitely will be returning!

Amazing hidden gem in Duluth. Got the LuLu's Special. Perfect, chewy sourdough crust. Spicy sausage (although it may be too spicy to those that normally shy away from it), perfect cook. Can't wait to grab LuLu's again next time we're in Duluth.
