    Welcome to LP Street Food. This reservation is for our dining room. Looking for our igloos? Head to www.lpstreetfood.com/igloos. Our menu is inspired by the streets of America. We’ve taken our cue from food carts, food trucks, street hawkers and walk-up windows all around the country, putting our own spin on creations originally dreamed up by people just like you and me. This isn't a place where you come to guess at how to pronounce half of the things on the menu. This is a place where you come to enjoy a fresh twist on culturally rich, gastronomically delightful street foods that we all know and love.
    To round it all out, our drink menu is crafty & fun, featuring a carefully selected but not overwhelming assortment of beers, spirits and cocktails inspired by tropical areas. Who doesn’t enjoy a deliciously fruity libation? We are everyday people who like what we like… we’re fun, not fancy.
