    We had a table for five plus a baby for lunch. Interesting and flavorful menu. Pulled duck tostados were excellent. One friend said the chicken sandwich was the best meal she had over the Christmas/Hanukah holiday. Kitchen made an easy substitution for a food allergy. Only slight gripe was that it was chilly sitting at the front table in the window. Will definitely be back!

    The food was outstanding The temperature was a little on the cold side. There were only two waiters for a fully booked restaurant on Christmas Day (understandably) and they did a yeoman's job.The entire staff was very attentive and gracious. Would definitely go back. The food was that good.

    We had the most magical evening at Luke’s on Christmas Eve. Tables hadn’t turned when we arrived, but the chef sent us Prosecco while we waited then offered to set us up at a table in the bar. Felt almost like private dining. The bartender filled in beautifully and the food was exquisite. We had so much fun trying so many different dishes that time slipped away. The evening ended with the chef giving our daughter a Christmas present (one for each table). We will definitely go back!
