    the ambience and the service were on point - but the food just wasn’t warm enough. we were so excited about the duck breast and it was so chewy and filled with fat that no one us ate it. the other meals had a great taste though! it was just the temperature.

    Kicked my feet the whole time it was really awesome in every way. I swear the deer head mounted above the bar and I sweet talked all night, he’s a real great guy with a lot of stories. Happy Memorial Day to that deer. Also Luke rocks. And Julian too.

    I have gone to Luke's multiple times and always had a great experience. This time was a little different. It took over an hour for our food to come out and when it did two of our dishes were burnt to the point of not being able to eat. Also, we had two waiters but it felt like they both thought the other one was doing the job. They didn't check on us as regularly as they should have. Overall the food was good (once our replacement dishes came out) but I would have to give it a 5/10 for this time.

    We ordered the pork schnitzel. Oh my it was huge. W were warned but it was bigger than imagined. It could feed 4 people. Also had the steak frites. The bernaise sauce was lacking. What little there was was under the fries. It did not taste like bernaise sauce. The flank steak was flavorful. Beet salad was good. My coke had no carbonation. Disappointed. Dinner was okay.

    Amazing fried oysters, and if you’re a schnitzel fan, you’ll be very satisfied with theirs! Also, the staff are super friendly and make you feel welcome. Loved this place!

    A charming restaurant in a great location. The food was outstanding. The menu has something for everyone without being overwhelming and the wine/cocktail list also has many great selectios The staff was attentive and helpful, but not hovering. The atmosphere was that of a French brasserie without leaving New Orleans. We will definitely return.
