    It was very loud. The service was somewhat slow and the food was not as good as I remembered. Maybe it was an off night. AND 3% charge for using credit card.

    My fish had the skin on, was not crispy, otherwise was very good. The menu had more for sushi, not many selections for other dishes. No steaks or beef, thought there were short ribs but not on menu. Only oxtail.

    Been coming to Luke for years and totally disappointed this evening. Our server was absent, and absent minded, most of the evening. The food was sub par at best; over salted gumbo and over cooked burger. Had the server been attentive we may have had a chance to address our concerns but she was AWOL most of the evening, leaving us to call on other staff for basics, like condiments for example.

    We went for Christmas Dinner in the afternoon, the restaurant was full,. We had reservations and had to wait about 10 minutes for the table. The staff was great and responded to our needs quite well given that it was Christmas, The drinks were great especially the “Attitude Adjustment”. The food was outstanding. I ordered specked trout which came in a shrimp sauce. My wife ordered their steak frites which she loved. Our friend had the Oxtail dish which was also excellent. We will visit this restaurant again!
