Excellent service and delicious dishes served in an historic and quintessentially New Orleans setting of architecture and food!

Everything was amazing, the service was impeccable. Will certainly be back again

One of the best brunch experiences I’ve had was at Luke’s, a tucked-away gem in the Business District. From the moment we walked in, the bright, thoughtfully designed decor set a vibrant, inviting tone — modern yet cozy, with just the right energy for a weekend brunch. I ordered the crawfish omelet, which was absolutely packed with flavor — rich, tender crawfish folded into perfectly fluffy eggs. It came with crisp, golden hot fries and a refreshing side salad that balanced the richness of the meal beautifully. My partner went with the spinach omelet, which was light yet hearty, full of fresh greens and melty cheese. The drinks were just as memorable. We had strong, well-made mimosas and rich, fresh-brewed coffee — the kind that actually wakes you up and pairs perfectly with good food and even better company. Luke’s felt like a hidden brunch oasis right in the middle of the city, blending comfort, quality, and charm in all the right ways. Definitely a spot we’ll return to.

Service was very good, and the food was excellent.

Great food and great service. I’m gluten free and they have lots of items that either are gluten free or can be made GF. Our waitress was superb. Highly recommended this restaurant (and they have a ghost!)
