Customer Reviews
Wonderful evening at Bistro LeLuco. We spent our 6 year anniversary here and had attentive service, thoughtful dishes, and unbelievable tastes. Perfect portions. We enjoyed some raw oysters, Saganaki (pan fried cheese w figs), Keftedes (lamb meatballs), Ksifias (grilled swordfish), and the lamb chops. We finished the meal with the affogato and the olive oil cake. Highly recommend the Paper Tiger for a non-alcoholic beverage. Thank you to Mackenzie and the wonderful staff at Bistro LeLuco!
Best swordfish you will EVER have!! Autumn toast was amazing! And the mussels with a creamy chorizo sauce were incredible. I cant wait to go back!
We were so excited about this restaurant on our second visit back to Portland. Unfortunately, the food fell short of expectations. Every dish we had, while presented beautifully, missed each time in taste, texture and/or level of doneness. We were surprised that the halibut was overcooked in a seaside town like Portland. While the food was a miss for us, the cocktails were excellent - I really loved the Turkish Coffee Martini. With that said, the host and servers were super nice! And the dining room felt cozy, right level of noise, and while simplistic, perfectly decorated. Altogether, I’d give this experience a 3.5/5.
My wife and I made a reservation to get brunch before going to a matinee showing at Portland Players (INCREDIBLE if you haven't seen any of their shows!) The atmosphere was cute, very clean, minimal coastal vibe which worked really well and the minimal decor and use of mirrors made a small space feel cozy. Servers were very kind and cocktails were delicious and came out pretty quickly. Our reservation was for 12:30 and we ordered promptly (we'd been drooling over the menu for days so knew exactly what we wanted!) We waited for over an hour with minimal communication from the staff to get our meals, and weren't able to get anything from the dessert menu due to timing - our plates hit the table at 1:45 - there were 6 other tables in the restaurant (2-4 tops), two of which had already recei
Ben the bartender is awesome and the baguette and salad for happy hour along with the lovely wine list and stellar pisco sour was great. Ambience is awesome, elevated but not pretentious. Saw lots of locals pop in for oyster happy hour too!
