Kait was our waiter. She was VERY good at explaining the menu (which convinced me to try something I normally wouldn’t) and explains gluten free options well. She actually explained gluten-free SO well that I’m wondering if I should become a gluten-free person. I probably won’t, but just know you’re in good hands with her! Food was delicious. Atmosphere was awesome.

Luke’s and their staff went above and beyond ! We hosted a farewell wedding brunch and the staff was amazing. They even helped us theme and decorate and it truly took our breath away! Not to mention the food was delicious! We can’t wait to go back and visit Kelly and her team! Truly we are beyond thankful. It made the weekend complete !!!

The best food with the best view in Temecula! Luke’s on Front Street has become our go-to spot whenever we’re in town. The restaurant is always spotless, the atmosphere is fun and welcoming, and the service is top notch. I usually order the Chris Savage Burger which is one of the best burgers you’ll ever have, while my wife swears by the Ahi Tacos. Jaimey is our favorite waitress. She’s friendly, attentive, and makes every visit an excellent experience. The bar also serves some of the best drinks in town, whether you’re just out for cocktails or enjoying a full dinner. Whether you’re planning a date night, celebrating with a big group, or stopping by for a casual meal, Luke’s delivers every time. Highly recommend!

Had an amazing lunch at Luke's, sitting up above Old Town and looking out. I imagine at night its even nicer due to Old Town being lit up. Misters and an umbrella at our table kept us cool. The service was kind and receptive, the food came out hot, correct and delicious. Couldn't even argue the music choice while we were there, it was just a very enjoyable experience. They had a large selection of beer at their bar, which you can enjoy inside the restaurant, or from out on the balcony side. The menu was awesome, I knew I'd have to come back because I couldn't have possibly tried everything I wanted to try. My family was equally pleased. So do yourself a favor and stop by.

Very good hidden spot. Staff was unbelievably accommodating and nice! Food was awesome!! Drinks were cold. The private room we had was decorated for the rich and famous. All around great spot!! Highly recommend.

Absolutely most superb Rack of Lamb and chocolate cake I have ever had in my whole life! Service was also outstanding! When I was blown away by the empanada dipping sauce, the waitress, Bella, was kind enough to discover the recipe from the chefs for me! Only down side was my stomach's lack of capacity to try more of their menu! Will absolutely come back again!

Amazing place. Very friendly and fast service, beautiful views, sits on the rooftop. The food was great, I got a steak, wife ordered the risotto with a halibut I belive, and we had a calamari appetizer, all the food was fresh tasting and cooked to perfection. The waitress was friendly and quick. A little bit on the pricier side, but it makes for a nice day out or a sate night.

Food was delicious! View and ambiance were perfect. However, at the end, when we went to go pay our bill for two people, the waitress acted like she was splitting the bill but charging us almost $300 for two people. I noticed it when she charged my card, but she said no no I'm splitting it. Then charged my friend the same amount. Hopefully it'll be corrected by Tuesday in my bank. Just be cautious when paying the bill and / or splitting the bill.

Cool looking place in the entry way, but food quality and portion size was mediocre. Not worth the cost. My burger was overcooked. (Asked for Medium it was dry). Veggie side plate was okay but overpriced. Drinks were meh. Also they have these large garage-kind of doors leading to outside, and it was cold eating inside. No heaters anywhere. The doors had to stay open as that’s how people go in/out for outdoor seating, otherwise I would have asked for them to close them. Music also was too loud, making it very hard to have a conversation. There’s so much noise as it is, is music even needed? Overall a disappointing experience.

Location and atmosphere are great. Went over for a Sunday brunch. Very sad limited menu for brunch. We ordered a poke appetizer and we're disappointed. 4 chips and very small amount of poke. Paid a premium for half a bowl of white rice and 4 chips. They need to visit 1909 and see that their poke dish is a stack with avocado and cucumber and a larger amount of poke. More poke and chips, less rice. Chips are the delivery method more than 4 are needed. Drinks were decent, would I eat there again, sadly no.

Luke’s needs a new chef. Food had cooled by the time it got to me. Steak was overdone. Did not care for carrots that were just warm, not fully cooked. Way over priced for the quality. Will not be back. Our waitress was the best. She should get the full tip.

Extremely underwhelming. The decor was cheap. The paper menus were falling apart and so stained, you couldn’t read some items. The food was bland. Everything was under-seasoned & the vegetables were almost inedible(mushy broccoli & raw carrots). They don’t give you bread with the meal. It felt more like a run-down bar than an upscale restaurant. Definitely not worth the $100/person bill.

Went to Luke's for the first time. It's Christmas season and they have the place decorated nicely with many people wanting to take the opportunity to snap a photo. The outdoor seating looked nicer from down below at the street. There were no heaters to ward off an evening chill. The view was a vacant lot, parking lot of another building, and freeway traffic. Kate was our server, and service was just average. Our food was not the greatest. We did not leave feeing it was worthy of the cost. Our Tempura artichokes were over cooked and mushy in consistency in the center, lacking true flavor. Kate offered to send them back but my husband was too hungry to wait. He had a grilled blackened chicken sandwich, adding bacon & avocado. The sandwich he received was decent. I ordered truffle Mac & cheese with an add of chicken bites. I don't believe what I received was truffles Mac & Cheese, as my husband ordered the same as his side and they tasted different and were also different in color. The real disappointment was the chicken bites. They were more of a fried batter cruton. Very little chicken could be found. I ate just a couple bites and asked for a box. I let Kate know about the difference in Mac & Cheese from what I ordered and she did remove the unchange from the bill at my request. Overall this place was a missed opportunity for us. It is more in line with what I would expect at an Applebee's. Sadly, I can't recommend....unless of course, you are looking for a higher priced Applebee's although Applebee's actually has more flavorful food by comparison.

We happened upon this place in downtown temecula, saw the sign and figured why not give it an evening date night shop. This place was very loud upon entering and very booked up but the bar was very empty so we went there. The inside is stunning, and the atmosphere is great. We sat at the bar, got instant service and ordered a leprechaun mixed fruit juice drink and my wife ordered wine. For dinner we ordered the filet and rack of lamb. The food took quite a long while to come out, probably cause they were very busy in the normal dinning room. They also didn’t check on us which was odd because the bar wasn’t very busy at all and few people were standing around. When the food finally came out it smelled delicious. However half the filet was tasteless and over cooked, same for a couple pieces of the lamb. The other halves were delicious so not sure how that worked. Also the carrots were rock solid and took some cutting work. We finished the night with ordering the Jamaican rum cheesecake with strawberries. Forewarned it was good but the cheesecake itself had a weird after taste. Then it took another twenty minutes if flagging someone down to get the bill. One other note, the food isn’t cheap, this place is quite pricey compared to some of the other places on front street. I wouldn’t recommend this place in general unless you want sub par food that is over priced, and service where you have to go out of your way to flag someone down.

We had a reservation at 5. We got there at 450. We got sat outside on the second patio. No waiters came for 20 minutes to get a drink order. We put in everything and asked her to pace it. She said she would. We got our apps and entrees practically at the same time. It would be more excusable if the food was good but it wasnt. The ahi had barely any fish. The risotto needed salt. The jalapeño poppers are made with sour cream? It was terrible. The steaks were all cooked wrong. Overall, terrible.
