We had an absolutely wonderful experience dining here for Valentine’s Day! The food was exceptional—beautifully presented, full of flavor, and perfectly cooked. The service was also outstanding, with attentive and professional staff who made sure everything was just right. It’s worth mentioning that our first experience with the Butler Package didn’t meet expectations, but the management truly went above and beyond to make it right. They invited us back, and this time, everything was flawless. It’s clear they take customer feedback seriously, and I really appreciate the effort they put into ensuring a great experience. I wouldn’t hesitate to return and highly recommend this restaurant!

The restaurant is very nice and fancy. I celebrated my anniversary there, but the service was very bad. The waitress was constantly busy, and we had to wait for her to be free to take a picture. The food was amazing, and at the end, they surprised us with a beautiful anniversary dessert. I'm thankful for that!

The food quality compared to the price is good. The ambiance is nice, making it a great spot for lunch, whether casual or a bit fancy. I totally recommend this place, and I’ll definitely visit again, next time for breakfast! The service could easily be 5 stars improving some of the waiters attitude

Can not recommend Luma restaurant enough, the food was exceptional, presentation wise & taste. Everything was delicious, there was vegetarian options available (I had the leek croquette & the pan fried gnocchi). Our waitress Jade was beautiful, she was very outgoing, friendly, happy & helpful, nothing was too much to ask, made us feel very comfortable. The restaurant itself has a very romantic vibe, extremely luxurious and exclusive. Can not recommend Luma enough to friends & family, will definitely be back!

I can't fault the service or food. We had a seafood dining experience: oysters, crab souffle, seafood tagliatelle, barramundi, and sides. All served beautifully & cooked to perfection. Special mention to Yvette & Candice for the great service.

The food was absolutely amazing! The curated menu may be small, but every dish is clearly crafted with care, not a single item disappoints. It’s a case of quality over quantity, and everything we tried was beautifully executed and full of flavour. The service was exceptional, warm, attentive, and made the whole experience even more enjoyable.The chefs coming out to chat with diners was such a nice touch and really added to the welcoming, personal feel of the night. And the cocktails… incredible! After a run of underwhelming cocktails elsewhere, it was such a joy to find each one here was perfectly balanced and beautifully presented. A standout experience from start to finish!

What a fantastic dinning experience. I would have to rate this as one off my top three dinning experiences. Not only was the food exceptional but each dish from the tasting menu come with its own little story making you feel like one of the family.
