I have been at cafe lu several times,i even dated Natalie ( owner ) she told me all the girls working there will do whatever if the $$$ dollar amount is the right amount,i took a couple of them to my place my self and they are willing to do whatever it takes to satisfy,these girls are prostitutes,plain and simple!! most of them will do drugs,be careful who you pick,just because they are pretty on the outside,you dont know what they are like inside,watch out for Natalie specially,she is a wild one!!

what are the requirements anyways to work there?

hey i hear theres a website that talks shit about coffee shop girls and other people in oc. does anybody know what the site is?

I have never visited the Cafe Lu.But reading your post I will make sure I visit that place.And let U know my experience.

I l0ve cafe lu . Night shift girls are more friendly. Boss lady is HOT. Love her sweet smile

Jeez..you can cut all this haterism tension with a freaking knife! Its not rocket science, SEX SELLS! I'm sure there's equally liberal StarBucks female workers that will spread their pink taco or come on to a customer that they are attracted to. Cafe Lu along with dozens of other cafe shops make their money off these skantily clad girls serving you beverages. If you have a problem with girls then maybe it's your own agenda. I'm not saying all these girls "take home to mommy material" but then I'm sure they're not all sluts as well..its so easy to judge a book by its cover. Why don't you haters just enjoy the ridiculously overpriced cafe sua da and shut the fuck up. You acting worse then girls. Drama!

i love cafe lu. their calendars are really cheap. come and get it now for 15 or 10 dollars.

Over all pretty good place. I went there once... nice sexy girls. $5 buck for cafe & tea.
I was thinking to ask a girl for go out...of course with $$$.
For 2hrs of f--- with $2000 buck.
What do you guys think ?

you vietnamese people doesn't have nice thing to say to each other. You all act like a mad dog. It is a low life of vietnamese culture. It is ashame to your own culture.

Does Cindy still work there? She was so sweet...

i work at cafe lu. my boss is really nice. all the girls are nice and pretty. just because we dont give out our numbers to you guys doesnt mean we're stuck up. we are not sluts either. so stop talking shit.

be nice to the girls. they only make money if you let them.

be nice to the girls!!! they only make a living..

People should not be so quick to judge. Don't assume that coffee shop girls are slutty whores and bimbos. First of all, you're not paying their bills. Second of all, if you are, that is your choice. So for the ones who are skeptical and so quick to judge a scapegoat for their unhappy life, go somewhere else and find peace. Don't blame others for your own problems and don't be so quick to assume that you are any better. Unfortunately some coffee shop girls might make it look bad for the rest. It is a job nonetheless. Beauty can only take you so far but in the mean time if a woman can take advantage of her beauty, let it be. We are all only human. Perhaps people go to coffee shops for a form of escape, a place to relax, a place to just wind down, some people might come for comfort. It happens the same at local American restaurants, etc... Whatever the reason, Asian coffee shops shouldn't be looked down upon. It's not the best career choice, it's more of something part time until you find something better. And just for the record, not all coffee shop girls are conceited, always looking for a sugar daddy, etc... Stop being so critical people. There's enough hatred in the world. If it bothers you so much or if it has affected in some negative way, the you're better off with out it. Walk away.

....they literally operate a fuckshop in a take-away pack "if the price is right"!?

Good Luck guys.

Guy,

Who know? What time Cafe Lu is open/close?

Thanks,
I wanna drink coffe.

it's all a game peeps! if u can handle da game then show up and have a good time...if u cant handle then u can just stay home and play wit chi nam

My ex-girlfriend was a sweet girl until she started working at these coffee shops (Cafe Lu included). She started having many boyfriends and didn't care about anything else but money and herself. None of these girls are angels....just players. So be careful guys, look but don't touch cause it will only hurt you in the end. Not worth it.....PEACE OUT

Temptations on bolsa and harbor is better

noooo, those girls are nice, just cuz they dont climb on you and dress sexy doesnt make them sluts. I would rather be served by a hot chick who dresses to impress than some fat ass liberal starbuck bitch who doesnt eat meat, has dreads, and likes Obama. If your nice to them they return it back. Im not VN,...i speak a tiny bit,....they like that, in return they know what i like, how many i drink and know im not rich. they take care of me. So grow up, if you cant get laid for free thats your problem.

Slutty whores works here and if you guys are dumb enough for them to take you for a ride then, do it. Beware of these chicks,they have many boyfriends and only used you. Beware of the owner... BIG HEAD,SLUTTY WHORES.

Has anyone date any of the girls at cafe lu? Share your experienc, one of the girl came on to me ..I think her name is Natalie, she looks fine but man..too much makeup. Not sure of her positions at the coffee shop.

I guess. less for love when you have $$$$$$$$..

all these girls there are sick, dumb and stupid just as the guys that hang out there. waste of time, money and ur just supportin there no brainer job. guys build there egos thats why they are so stuck up. go figure.

All these girls are so fake... Inside and out. They will pretend to be nice to you to make you dumb asses think that they actually like you so you'll keep coming back. Most of them already have long term boyfriends or/ and husbands, but there is always room for more sugar daddys.

Cafe Lu now has a calendar with their girls in it and it's HOOOOTTTTT!!!! It's not cheap at $25 but the eye candy is definitely worth it.

So for a complete experience, go to Cafe Lu, check out the hot hot girls, and then ask them for a calendar and have the girls sign it for you! :D They girls get a commission on the calendar so you'll get extra attention. ;)

You are right...that place has some hot girls. No wonder it's crowded most of the time. Parking sucks, but oh well.

I came here several times and girls are just pouring to you once they found out your car & career. Becareful guys, the owner is one of them. She gave me her # and ask me to call her. I told her i'm married and she said, SO WHAT? Let's have fun. I wine and dine here several times and off course who wouldn't liked to be teased & please. I stop calling since..bcuz no future and hurting my wife and i cannot afford to play.

word of wisdom becareful...look but don't touch or your wallet. Service is okay that's part of JOB.

Piece out my brother.

Caphe Sua Da: $5
Tra Da: $0
Experience: Priceless

I come here as much as possible because the servers are the hottest of any coffee shop that I have been to so far. In fact, my crew has gave up looking for a better place. If you can prove me wrong though, post the name & location of one that has better! :-D

I also like going there because you can be as loud as you want when playing tien len. At Starbucks patrons tend to frown on that. Besides, sometimes if you are missing a fourth, you can ask one of the ladies to join in if they are not too busy. The em that always joins my table is as sweet as she is beautiful. :-D

Every girl that I have talked to so far has been super nice and never been stuck up. If you don't talk to them though, they won't talk to you besides to take your order. My guess is that since they are not trying to hustle you for money, they have no motivation to initiate conversation.

Wished these comments had timestamps; had to add my own...anywho.

I have to agree with some of these posts, the girls at Cafe Lu are definitely hot. Visitors to this place must remember that these girls are just waitresses who happen to dress very provocatively; think Hooters Restaurant except Cafe Lu only serves drinks. Don't expect a hostess club or strip bar atmosphere and if you are, you will definitely be disappointed. ...btw, there's this one waitress there with a green top and white mini on today, hella hot. I think I have a crush.

It's a cool place to chill as there are plenty of TV screens that show sports and news. I think there is also WiFi access, as I see a few customers bringing in their laptops. Also, those coin operated game machines are available. I wished I had the courage to ask one of the waitresses how those gaming machines work. Finally, I've noticed the customers having a fun time playing cards, chess, and just socializing.

I've been to Cafe Lu during Friday mornings and there are plenty of customers already. Everyone seems laid back and there is very little of that gangsta feel like some have claimed...maybe the gangstas are still sleeping but whatever, just don't act like a fool.

I came here several times and the owner herself was extra nice to me but too bad i was married. she carry on and gave me here number and I did not call her.I'm not interested in these girl, will go no where except you spend money on them. They wear very sexy clothing & off course --fake all the way..to down town. Becareful when they approach you,wallet,they have many boy friends as a spare..who know what they gooot on them...The owner look like a hoocker in a way,I hear too many bad stuff from her and when she tried to let her hand on me..i said,..no. Becareful guys..they are in for your money...don't be stupid..see but don't touch..

Just want to clarify some things... Who ever said that we use FAKE names is retarded... I know i dont, it's not my given name but it isn't a fake name when my close friends call my by it. And NO we DO NOT do anything there besides serve drinks (none of those back room crap), it is just a coffee shop people! And also... I was working there around March of 2008... WHEN THE HECK DID A SHOOTING HAPPEN??? Bullshit much??? There are plenty of pretty girls working there, and just because they are hot and they don't talk to you it doesn't mean they are stuck up.. i've worked with most these girls and they are all really nice =)
