   Delicious food in an intimate setting, we enjoyed our blue crusted trout and ribeye as well as the pork belly, though we were disappointed that they were out of one of the key ingredients in that dish - the peaches. As with many things in life, it was the simple things that made our experience top notch, the mouth watering assortment of breads in the bread basket, and the staff. From the moment we walked in, the staff was attentive, kind and worked collaboratively to achieve an overall vibe that felt at ease, and like they've known you for years. Bravo Luminarias! We'll done.

   We had three entrees- halibut - not much flavor or spice, half a chicken - pretty food and a ribeye which was overcooked, tough and grainy. Service was ok but not very attentive or informative.

   Luminaria is elegant, extremely quiet facilitating intimate conversation, and most delectable offering perfectly prepared halibut. The server took great care for our dietary constraints and consulted quickly with the chef. We also appreciated the short walk from this fine restaurant to the Cathedral for the Christmas chorale concert.

   I love the feeling of having a restaurant "all to myself" during the holidays. I was seated to the side, which I prefer. The only other table in the room was a group of four older women who were talking politics. That in itself was entertaining. I tried not to eavesdrop too obviously, but they were going great guns. Maria, my wait-person was attentive, friendly, but not in my face. I had the chilaquiles with brisket, which was just right for that afternoon. A glass of white wine rounded it out, but then I splurged and mad a Mexican coffee my dessert. I love the location, and it would be wrong of me not to mention the parking attendant, Ann, who was quick, polite, and had a good sense of humor.

   We have enjoyed Luminaria for more than a decade. We dined there over Thanksgiving weekend and had a delicious dinner! The restaurant was quiet and our server was very attentive taking care of a few dietary restrictions with ease. The food exceeded our expectations and was absolutely delicious. The perfect comfort meal after a long day of traveling. The hotel's food and beverage director also stopped by to inquire about our dining experience, and we enjoyed a very lovely conversation with him about the restaurant and its history.

    This place has so much potential because of its location. First of all, it was difficult to find because there were no signs. When we finally arrived, the place was pretty much empty, which is already a sign. The menu was boring. It needs to be recreated. We ordered the pork sausages, and they were tough. The chicken Cobb salad had the right ingredients but very little chicken and way too much dressing. Unfortunately, this place was a disappointment.
