    Luke was absolutely amazing! This was my second time visiting and this time I brought some friends to try Luke for the first time and they loved it. The food was amazing, we had bbq oysters, brussels sprouts and the fried oyster salad. We ended with bread pudding. The drinks were lovely and our server was so kind.

    Great food and atmosphere. Only complaint was that my cappuccino took way too long to arrive. I like having it with my dessert. After waiting at least 10 minutes I started eating my dessert w/o my coffee. It finally arrived after I finished my dessert

    Luke was absolutely phenomenal -- and do please come hungry because it's a lot of food! It's attached to the Hilton and I never had Southern/German food taste this good that's attached to a chained hotel. I got the red beans & rice and was NOT disappointed. Everything is prepared in-house from scratch and tastes like HOME. Next go round, I will definitely try the shrimp & grits since that was the only other top choice on their menu. Bonus: the staff is very tentative and friendly and the atmosphere was quite warming!

    The service team was great. The food was awesome! Specifically, the heirloom tomato salad was like no other. It’s a treat you don’t want to pass. Also, the herb chicken entree was excellent. Moist, tender and juicy throughout. Topped it off with tasty cream brûlée. Luke is a MUST visit restaurant!

    We have eaten twice at Luke. For breakfast I had a spinach and mushroom omelet. Best omelet ever! My husband had the Southern Breakfast which was equally delicious. For dinner I had a huge schnitzel dinner while my husband had shrimp and grits. Excellent food and service. Love this place.

    Open kitchen needs to be tightened up. Employees eating, cell phones, not very tidy or particularly clean-looking. Service was friendly, but beverages took a while and cappucinos were not hot on arrival. Understandable when 3 are made at same time, but disappointing. Food was pretty good, just not great. All in all a pleasant enough experience but doesn't make me want to come again any time soon.

    We started with the Luke salad which was delicious especially the beets. I had the schnitzel and hubby the shrimp and grits. We both loved our food. Ended with the creme brûlée which was light and tasty. Only reason for not giving a five star was we felt rushed. We were enjoying our salad and the entrees came out to fast. Service was very good and I Would still recommend.
