    We went for the New Years Eve dinner, which had a set menu, 4-course meal. Our server was nice, but the food had way too much salt. The soup, lobster bisque, had nice pieces of lobster in it, but all we could taste was the salt. The salad with roasted fruit looked colorful but was overwhelmed with salt. The sirloin steak was tough, had no seasoning, just way too much salt. The event was advertised as having a band and a DJ. There was no band. The DJ didn't have interaction with guests, he was just off to the side of the bar doing his own thing, mostly techno-beat, thump, thump, thump for hours.

    Experience is over valued for 3 course meal. There are much better options available for the cost.

    We loved the beautiful views and we had an excellent waiter. The portions were small for the price but the cost was worth it for the atmosphere. We would recommend it to others for special occasions.

    Very pleased with my first time at Lucero, the atmosphere was wonderful and quiet. The food was wonderful, the experience overall was well worth it. Food was not terribly expensive nor the drinks. Very pleased with my first visit and will 100% be returning. Thank you Anthony (our cool server) for taking great care of my date and I.

    It was great until we go to the place and they said we needed to pay 250$ to sit a the fire. So not what I was expecting. Probably won’t go back because of this.

    Expected better service and some items identified on menu as GF really weren’t gluten free. Not as good as other Omni’s I have been at. Also, if you cannot go up to restaurant until 5pm - don’t take a 5pm reservation - parking for $15 for less than 2 hours is crazy.
