Luka's Restaurant & Bar

Came here for lunch on a Saturday. My wife daughter and I ordered calamari for an appetizer. It was very salty and the portion was laughable. We ordered a beat salad which was the "special" it arrived with no dressing. We ate it for a while and disliked it very much. It wasn't until I asked the server if it was supposed to come with a vinaigrette or something, when she brought it it truly made the salad go.from hardly palatable to pretty good. My wife had the steak sandwich which was fantastic, simple, cooked perfectly. My daughter had a cheese pizza, the undercarriage was burned badly and while the sauce was fantastic it didn't save the burned taste from the pizza. I had the pulled pork mac and cheese. Fantastic!!! My wife daughter and I noticed a disabled homeless person trying to t

Upon arrival service on a Saturday afternoon was almost non existent. Bartenders saw us multiple times and didn't acknowledge us until the 4th eye contact. After being seated service improved from a young blonde girl. Thank You. My wife ordered the grilled salmon citrus salad and I got the meatball marinara sandwich. My wife said her salad was pretty good. My sandwich had 4 large meatballs (nice) and was big however there was no presence of marinara. The sauce looked and tasted like canned diced tomatoes with no seasoning. The meatballs by themselves were very good but was not complimented with the so called marinara. Maybe the spaghetti has real marinara. The fries came out hot and crispy and with a little extra salt saved my lunch. I took a couple meatballs home, added real marinara and

Definitely try the pretzel with creamy cheese and request some stone ground mustard. A corona beer with lime compliments very well.

We ate here last night for a friend’s birthday, the restaurant was full but it wasn’t noisy, there was a nice relaxed atmosphere. The service was good. The pear cinnamon gin cocktail is extremely good. I had the seafood linguine which I found disappointing, it was lacking in flavor for the most part, I ate the seafood on top and left the rest. I had some of my friends Tuscan shrimp which was absolutely delicious, so if you like seafood I would recommend this dish instead. I also tried some of the New York strip, it was cooked nicely and had a great sear taste. We shared the calamari for an appetiser, it was very good too, lots of flavor in the batter.

Food was a little disappointing for what I was expecting considering the price and overall set up. I made a reservation in advance and still sat in the front by the door for over 10 minutes waiting to be acknowledged. When I was finally greeted the person who assisted me wasnt sure where our reservation was or if we had a table anywhere. The table was so u even that our drinks spilled every time either of us placed any wait on the table. Our waitress was very pleasant but the food was mid level diner quality. Unfortunately I've had better (and better seasoned) steak and potatoes from Mel and day's diner across the road for 1/2 the price. Not sure why I paid $56 before tax for unseasoned Ribeye that required me to ask for A1 sauce , and cold bland potatoes that had 4 undercooked broccolinni
