    LUKE is amongst the best of the best restaurants in the US. I would say top 100 easily, more likely top 50. It’s why I walk in every week.

    Really cool French style brasserie next to the Hilton. Service was friendly and great, but we found the food to be just okay. Nothing was bad, but nothing really stood out. Maybe it was under seasoned a bit. Cocktails were also so-so. I’d give it another chance, but it isn’t a place we’re dying to return to soon

    Absolutely wonderful service from Haley and her partner! Food was delicious, but it was fairly loud so if you’re looking for a quiet night don’t go on Saturday at prime time. Go some other time and enjoy the food and service.
