Luthun

Luthun was one of the more enjoyable dining experiences of our trip. The atmosphere felt lively and welcoming, which was a refreshing contrast to some of the more serious tasting-menu restaurants in the city. The service team struck a great balance—attentive but relaxed—and made the evening feel comfortable rather than overly formal. What stood out most was the chef’s creativity. The menu felt thoughtful and imaginative, with dishes that pushed interesting flavor combinations while still being enjoyable to eat. You can feel the personality in the cooking, which made the experience engaging from start to finish. Overall, it’s a place that feels both refined and approachable at the same time. If you’re looking for a tasting menu that is inventive without feeling stiff or overly traditional

A truly exceptional experience. The diversity of cuisine is what sets this restaurant apart from other fine dining. Instead of creating French inspired dishes like most fine dining establishments, this restaurant finds perfection in distinct genres of food. The taco, tortellini, and pani puri were stand out dishes that would make me come here again. The beverage package elevates the experience with a wide variety of drinks (not just wine) carefully curated to complement the food. Would recommend this place to any foodie or fan of fine dining.

Dinner at Luthun was a real treat. It feels like a cozy small restaurant where everyone is friendly, but the food is out of this world. From the first bite each mouthful packs a punch with innovative flavors and spices and dry ice. We sat at the counter with 8 others and each course was served for the group altogether. The wines paired nicely and it was a real enjoyable experience. Afterwards, Chef Nahid spoke with us a bit before we left.

The staff was very professional and accommodating. They were wonderful. You can tell they take pride in their craft. The first two dishes were sublime. The fushka and shiitake cappuccino. I hope they don’t change those. The rest of the dishes were delicious and the composition of the ingredients were creative! IMHO the basic flavoring got slightly redundant throughout the course with use of citrus or acid. Still good. The portion size is small so you won’t walk away from the ten course tasting menu full. I would 100% opt for milk bread supplement.

Was here with a couple of coworkers (one of them really really wanted to go 😂). The whole dinner was 8-9 course, took 3 hours (a little long in opinion 😄), featured several delicious courses, a few relatively interesting ones, and also one or two mediocre ones. The only two I can recall a week later were the wagyu beef, which was the best course of the evening, and the taco, which was mediocre, primarily for being too salty. None of us had wine, but the per-person before-tip bill was still $198 per person. Keeping the creativity and the beautiful presentation in mind, I felt this was slightly but not egregiously overpriced. Nevertheless, would I again shell out $198 for the this experience? Highly doubtful
