We came there with family of 4 to have a breakfast . It wasn’t busy at all. Got a table and waited for 30 min for a server to come take our order . 2 of them were arguing between each other they saw us looking at them and patiently waiting. After we just left and my husband said “where is your service ?” They simply just ignored us and didn’t even ask us why we were leaving ! It was so rude and unprofessional .

Dear Sabina, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. I’m truly sorry to hear about what happened during your breakfast visit, and I want to sincerely apologize for the lack of service and attentiveness you encountered. This is not reflective of our standards at Lua, and your frustration is completely understandable. Please know that I’m personally following up with our team to understand how this lapse occurred and to ensure it is not repeated. If you're willing to give us another chance, we would love the opportunity to make things right and provide you and your family with the warm, attentive service that Lua is known for. Your feedback is truly valuable, and we’re committed to improving from it. Warm regards, Atilla Cimsit General Manager

Lua Restaurant in the Turks and Caicos Islands offers a truly captivating dining experience, starting with its stunning setting. Whether you're seeking a romantic evening in their outdoor area, a more formal feel in the main dining room, or a relaxed group gathering on the deck, the views are undeniably beautiful. Our group opted for the deck and found it to be a wonderful spot to soak in the ambiance. While the menu might not be extensive, the quality of the food is where Lua truly shines. We were thoroughly impressed with our selections. The snapper was fresh and flavorful, the lamb shank was tender and rich, and the steak was cooked to perfection, each dish bursting with taste. The kitchen puts care and skill into every plate. The service was adequate, and we were well attended to throughout our meal. While it wasn't exceptionally memorable, it was efficient and met our needs. Perhaps there's a slight difference in approach for locals versus tourists, but we had no complaints about being served. Overall, our experience at Lua Restaurant was very positive. The combination of a breathtaking location and excellent, well-prepared food makes it a destination we would gladly return to. We're already looking forward to trying other dishes on their menu! #tciexperiencedotcom

We also appreciate your candid feedback regarding the service. Your insights are valuable and help us refine the experience for all our guests, whether local or visiting. We truly look forward to welcoming you back soon to explore more of our menu. Atilla Cimsit General Manager

Beautiful venue. Went here for dinner on first night of trip. It’s a very chic dinner spot with an upscale beach/island aesthetic. We ate in the main dining area where most of the guests seemed to be congregated, although there are options to sit closer to the beach or bar areas. The cocktails are well-made and they have a good variety of food options to select from. We had the scallops and lamb shank that were very good. The staff were friendly, as well. A nice spot to check out if you’re looking for a chic/trendy spot with decent food/drinks.
