The moment you walk into Café Lilou, you can’t help but be amazed by the place — the red chandelier and elegant, theater-style theme make it feel so cozy and classy at the same time. We had a great experience thanks to the staff! Sharif and Jihadul took such good care of us, Roderick gave awesome recommendations, and Elisa was super friendly and checked in to make sure everything was okay. Overall, the ambiance, service, and vibe were all on point. Definitely a lovely spot to relax, enjoy good food, and feel a little fancy! Looking forward to our next visit! We had great time, classic lovely quiet place.. celebrating birthday was very smooth in arrangement and wonderful .. the food is yummy.. very special and nice service from Prashanth he was smiling all time and did everything fast and smooth, we enjoyed our time for the lovely service 🥰 We sat outside in the secluded area, very peaceful and quite. Food was great and service was on point. Thanks to Sharif for being a great host
