Lulu's Café

Good place to read Marx and growl.

Popular food: Greek salad and shaksuka--poached eggs over tomatoes, peppers, and garlic.

Drinks: Fresh squeezed juices, coffee, smoothies.

Seating: Tables--outside (nice!) and indoors.

Ambience: The standard merits of a trendy, upscale café with few distinguishing features besides its under-served Miracle Mile location.

Extras/Notes: Not a value meal--sets you back about ten bucks. But the crowd is cool and the waitresses are tart.

Parking: Street only--can be tough.
