Its busy season, I get it! So, when we arrive 10 mins early and the table is ready an hour after our reservation. I understand. But waiting 40mins for an espresso martini and a mocktail. Not ideal. The food was cold. Not too many delectable menu options but we adjusted. Beautiful place, just not ready to handle busy season. Unfortunately, I won't be returning.

We continuously strive to refine both our offerings and operations, especially during the busy season, to ensure a seamless experience for all our guests.

Mediocre food, outrageous prices. Good service by waitstaff, especially Maribel. Noise level was horrible. The diners at a table close to us were so loud, it seemed like they were having their own party in the restaurant, standing and shouting across tables. Repeated complaints to the staff and management were not addressed. The manager never even came out to take care of the complaint or talk to us. Avoid this restaurant at all costs.

Dear Amy, Thank you for your feedback on your recent visit to Lua. I apologize for falling short of your expectations. While I’m glad Maribel provided excellent service, I regret that our team did not adequately address your concerns about the noise level and disruptive diners. Your experience does not reflect the standards we strive to uphold, and I will ensure our staff is better prepared to handle such situations in the future. I also take your comments about the food and pricing seriously and will discuss them with our culinary team to improve. We aim to provide exceptional experiences, and I hope you’ll allow us the chance to make it right. Please contact me directly to discuss further. Sincerely, Atilla Cimsit General Manager

The best dining experience in TCI! Absolutely without a doubt best food, best service and best ambience! Recently opened but hitting all the high notes and setting unbelievably high standards that other restaurants in Providenciales should look up to. Our wedding anniversary felt very special thanks to our server Kadian (not sure how to spell the name). Wish we tried Lua earlier on our trip so we could return and try their bar and pizza menu. Well done Lua!
Lua RestaurantResponded on December 23, 2024
Dear Victoria, Thank you for your wonderful review! We’re honored to have made your wedding anniversary so special and are thrilled you loved the food, service, and ambience. Kadian will be delighted to hear your kind words—we’ll be sure to commend her for her excellent hospitality and warm smile. We look forward to welcoming you back to enjoy our bar and pizza menu next time. Thank you for celebrating with us! Warm regards, Atilla Cimsit General Manager

The experience at Lau Restaurant was phenomenal. The magical moment started with the hostess Fabiola, she was very welcoming and pleasant. Our waitress Stephanie was exceptional, she gave great recommendations and was very attentive to our needs. Big thanks to Maribel and Joan who seemed to be part of management, stopped by to ensure everything was operating smoothly and it did. The staff seemed very happy, and the atmosphere was very bubbly because of their upbeat energy. Highly recommend this restaurant! Davidson

It means the world to us that our team’s upbeat energy and dedication stood out to you. We can’t wait to welcome you back for another magical dining experience!
