Best Historic Restaurants in Hamden

The food, the staff and the customer service at the library was top shelf It was a little bit loud, but that’s to be expected given the entire restaurant was full I was a little concerned at first with the volume of people, but the team at the library pulled it off without a hitch ! Thank you

We had a table for five plus a baby for lunch. Interesting and flavorful menu. Pulled duck tostados were excellent. One friend said the chicken sandwich was the best meal she had over the Christmas/Hanukah holiday. Kitchen made an easy substitution for a food allergy. Only slight gripe was that it was chilly sitting at the front table in the window. Will definitely be back!

Good food and service. Even open on Christmas which was a plus !

My family and I had an unforgettable Christmas dinner at The Luke. The candlelit atmosphere was beautiful, and the service was impeccable. Chef Vincent greeted guests, described dishes, and even created additional vegetarian options for a guest at our table. Every dish was inventive, fresh, and delicious. Our server, Iris, took excellent care of us and helped create a truly memorable experience. From the Prosecco toasts on arrival to the flawless execution of the menu, it was one of the best dining experiences we’ve had in quite some time. As a hospitality professional myself, this evening reminded me how impactful a dining experience can be when great people thoughtfully execute every detail. I’m truly looking forward to dining at The Luke again!

Our first server was okay but then Anthony came over and he was exceptional. So polite, attentive and professional.
