About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Gluten-free-friendly
  • Neighbourhood gem
Welcome to Sister Lū
No one really knows where she came from. Legend has it that she set sail to chase the sunset, & somehow ended up here, with nothing but a suitcase full of spices and secrets.. Although some people say that we made her up.

Truth is, no one's sure - but what we do know is, she's a sucker for a good feed and will never say no to a cocktail or two.

Think Asian inspired eats made for sharing & a drinks menu that's a little bit fancy (because you deserve it).
So slide into a comfy booth inside or take a seat outside & soak up the ocean views - Welcome to Lū's world, this is her place & now its yours too.
