Sometimes it’s not just the actual quality of the dinning experience that matters, it’s how it stacks up against your expectations. One shouldn’t expect the world when going to an Earls, but at a Lumiere calibre restaurant it should be very high.

As with other “celebrity chef” restaurants, I often feel let down. For one thing, that celebrity chef is often too busy with his celebrity life to be cooking for you in the kitchen. More importantly, is a great meal costing hundreds of dollars per person ever all that much more satisfying as your favorite $20 meal?

Don’t get me wrong, I think Lumiere serves good stuff. I do recommend it for special occasions, or everyday if money is no object to you.

Truly what a 5 star restaurant should be. Amazing service and food. Lumiere served me the best meal I have ever had, even better than French Laundry in Napa Ca. I would highly recommend the 10 course fixed price meal over the a la carte and 6 course fixed price meal. It was pricey but worth every penny.

Foods are outstanding… and of course the price as well :p

my partner and i are huge foodies and work in the industry. we do not mind to spend top dollar for top cuisine. lumiere had us at bonjour.

Oh the courses here are delightful! Small, exquisitely crafted dishes are presented, and are delicious. We had the nine course meal which sampled most of their selections with a wine pairing, and it was excellent! A bit pricey, but the atmosphere, service, and food is worth it.

It’s the Best !!!
