This was our first time to Luka's and will not be the last! We were very impressed with the food, service and ambiance of the wonderful restaurant! The Valentines menu was well done and had a great variety of main courses to choose from! Each dish was outstanding and very well prepared. If I could have licked the plates, I would have! Outstanding place to eat and celebrate any occasion.

I eat to taste, I don’t eat just so I can fill my stomach. I think of food as a treat. The restaurant is quite nice for it being in a small downtown. The servers were really nice. The food was presented well. However, the taste and quality of it is not worth the price. I’ve been to restaurants that are very pricey, I’ve also been to restaurants that are affordable and most of the time, their food is as good as expected or beyond my expectation. This time wasn’t. But overall, it was a good visit, good service, very short waiting time and food was just okay.

Experience was nice. My only complaint would be about the overcooked meat inside the Beef Wellington. Beyond that, the meal was great for my first time visiting.

We always have a great experience at Luka’s. Abe is a great chef and no matter what we order it is top notch! Also, the service is always above and beyond, so I recommend Lucas to anyone who wants great service and a great meal.

The kitchen staff is innovative and professional in their crafting of the food served here. I dine here weekly as a local resident and always find the staff courteous, prompt and professional in executing their responsibilities.

All six of us had a very tasty meal, ordering six different menu choices. Every meal was cooked correctly, nice presentation, and had great taste. Servers were very good, but a longer wait for the food was probably going to be expected as there was a large group in the "party room" as well as the restaurant was very busy. Overall, we will definitely be customers again.
