This was probably one of the best Thanksgiving meals I’ve had in my life. Charcoal raises the bar for a holiday meal, as my expectations from other places in the past have been a high price paired with average food and you feel like you got robbed because the restaurant was taking advantage of the holiday with a pre-fixe menu. In this case, it was a fair price for a high quality and delicious experience matched with friendly professional service.

We had our Thanksgiving meal at Lunetta’s and we were very happy. The entree was very good with plenty of variety on our plates to make it interesting. The portions were more than sufficient. The service was attentive. We enjoyed the warm ambience of the restaurant as well as the intriguing display of artwork. We will definitely return to this restaurant when we are in town.

The food is delicious and worth the price. The service was warm, inviting, and on point in attending to the table. We plan to make Thanksgiving Dinner at Whiskey Red's a regular event and will try to come on off-season events. You get your money's worth during the Thanksgiving event.

Food was great. I love their pasta and we really enjoyed all of our appetizers as well. Service was meh. We had to wait in the cold until our whole party had arrived - not even got offered to sit at the bar in a completely empty place. Also at a $400 tab, I expect not getting the check handed in a machine like ordering a $5 latte...
