Starlu in durham
ive been here twice and both times it was a terrible experience. i felt unsettled and unwelcome, unsatisfied with my food, and unhappy at how much it cost for such a subpar experience. but, ive been hearing more positive reviews recently. whats the consensus on starlu?

Have been to Starlu many times and never had a bad experience -- food's always been wonderful, and service was pleasant and welcoming. Sorry to hear it wasn't a good night out for y'all.

re: batdown
Menu changes often and of the current offerings the only ones I've tried are the arancini, the beet medley and the eggplant parm reconsidered. all of which were excellent. haven't had the current burger or hanger steak presentation but i and others i've eaten there with have enjoyed earlier versions of both.

re: LulusMom
My husband and I ate there about a month ago, I'd been given a gift cert and so we went with high hopes. That was my third visit. The first two, both a year or two ago, were very good. A month ago -- not great. Food was "ok" and service so-so. I got a flounder dish that was so salty that neither of us could eat it. Tried in vain to get our server's attention but she was flat out and never checked back with us. When she finally came to the table and asked how everything was and we gave her the almost full dish, she said, "I wish you had told me." No offer to bring back another dish or to make an adjustment of any sort. And while we probably should have protested harder, by then we were not wowed and wanted to get on to dessert. Two apps, two entrees, two desserts and two glasses of wine was about $130. Not worth that, IMHO.
