I visited Luma on New Year's Eve much more quiet hen I anticipated but perhaps most people were partying.
We chose the a la carte menu which may have been a bad choice in the end. Both I and my sister had the trout celery clam chowder to start. The creaminess of the chowder and saltiness of the trout were not palette friendly at all. I did not eat much of this.
As my entree I got braised beef which was delicious but I would have appreciated if they asked me how I liked my beef cooked because they gave me medium rare and I prefer medium well. My sister had duck and was singing its praises.
For dessert (my favourite part) we had lemon ice cream with blueberries and chocolate creme ....delicious!
Dinner was pretty good it was the service that brings down the rating of Luma. The waitress never checked on us after we were brought each dish to ensure we were enjoying our meal. On top of that we had to continuously ask other waiters to get us drinks. Unacceptable!!
I would visit Luma again but I hope for better service.
