  • Luma sits off the cobble stone road on Castle Shannon Blvd. I was coming from Washington Road and BOOM there it was once I hobbled my car over the bumpy stone road. The parking lot was packed so I had to find parking on the street which wasn't too hard. It was a Wednesday night and this place was jumping. We didn't have reservations but luckily we found seats at the bar which was crowded as well. My friend had a Groupon which is why we came here. It was also 1/2 priced wine Wednesdays...but we'll get to that in a minute...you'll want to stick around as this the primary reason I gave them 3 stars. Lets start with the food. My friend and I shared the calamari, which was very good although the portion seemed a bit small for the price. I had the crab bisque followed by the vegetable stack entree. The crab bisque was great, everything a crab bisque should be...creamy and flavorful, with discernible pieces of crab! It's a bit heavy in that I was full from the calamari and bisque before my entree arrived. As far as vegetarian dishes go, I would rate this as delectable and fresh! From the few bites I took of the grilled portabella stuffed with kous kous and spinach accompanied by cauliflower, I could tell that a new standard had been set for my vegetarian moods! The standout vegetable was definitely the portabella - it has a smokiness from being grilled but still firm and flavorful. If you don't like mushrooms then stay away from this dish. Since I was stuffed, I took most of the entree home to enjoy for lunch the next day. Now on to the reason why I only gave them 3 stars. So as I mentioned we had a Groupon and it was also "wine Wednesdays" where their wine (glass or bottle) is half priced. But here's the kicker, you can't use these discounts in combination. The Groupon already states that it's no good towards alcohol so what's the problem?!?! Why can't we take advantage of the 1/2 priced wine (since we came on a Wednesday) and use the Groupon...and I get it, from a business perspective you want to make the $ from at least the alcohol if you're discounting the food but it's not very "customer friendly". We even asked if we could put the wine on a separate receipt from our food - the answer, "no". It's just something they can't do...more like won't do. You have to choose if you'd like to use the Groupon discount or use the 1/2 priced wine discount. This irked me because without the Groupon we wouldn't even be coming to Luma...are they taking this in to consideration? I think they should re-think this strategy. But as I mentioned, the food was very good so if you don't have Groupon issues then check it out.
