Luxe Restaurant & Martini Bar

Great find for us. We arrived a little before 5pm and the lovely waitress said that they still had a happy hour menu that we could order from our table! I ordered the baked ziti bolognese and my wife tge sea bass brochettes and mashed potatoes. Wow, great food, great price. Great service. In this day and age we were thrilled. Highly recommend this restaurant.

I am completely jaded from decades of operating in the food service business. At a glance I can tell whether the entrée came from SYSCO, US Foods or Restaurant Depot…and it kinda kills the dining experience. But I was seeking a new place for fine dining last night and took my wife & daughter to Luxe Restaurant and Bar. From the assistance on the phone before booking to tipping the pianist on our way out…nothing could have improved our dining experience. Their performance (both front & back) was flawless. I am not an easy customer. I expect table service with the FOUR MINUTE RULE and challenge my server in friendly ways…like asking about house favorites, specifying I want my steak cooked 3 minutes on the first side, 90 seconds once flipped for a true black & blue (charred outside-cool center) grilled rare steak. To my surprise our waitress exceeded even my top tier expectations…asking my wife if she’d like the croutons on her salad finely cut like the rest of her salad. This attention to detail and earnest desire to please sets Luxe Restaurant and Bar head & shoulders above the rest. The music, the décor, the atmosphere, cocktails, food and service were all perfect. 100 out of 100…a score I cannot remember giving anyplace for over a decade. Trust me, I can be something of a perfectionist at times and left this place completely satisfied…impressed even! I had to meet the owners…shake their hands…they hire very well. Seem like a nice couple. So look, if you want (or need) an exceptional dining experience for work or recreation…this is your place. Luxe Restaurant and Bar sets the customer care bar so high, other restaurateurs need to charter a plane just to see it. Oh and it would be a sin to skip dessert… take my word for it, you can thank me later.

Everything was great. I would go again for the calamari. I got the gyro is was good, loaded w meat and delicious tzatziki but hindsight I should’ve gotten a pasta dish. Alicsha was our server and rec fries, they were great. Also bread basket was mid(we love bread).

This place had really good drinks. The food looked absolutely terrific. We did not eat. We just came for a drink. It was so loud it was difficult to have a conversation. Probably would have been a much nicer experience if it wasn't so busy

Everything was great except the lobster ravioli was undercooked and dry. I had two bites and was disappointed. There was no bread or side to make up for it. I told the server “everything was great except the ravioli “ I took two small bites. He said do you want a box. Realy?!? Was I not clear the entire was awful except the sauce? That was a waste of time and money I don’t recommend if you want good food and atmosphere.

This is a fun little bar/restaurant. We came here to listen to the live music and were seated at a high top near the piano (which incidentally has bar seats right at it!) We ordered our standard martinis (Vodka dirty and Hendricks very dry)and they were properly executed and of good size. They even have fresh stuffed blue cheese olives! Food wise we stuck to the small plates. The food was tasty! Fresh oysters on the half shell, a couscous salad with ahi tuna, and the meatballs. All were very good and full of flavor. They had a specials menu with some pork egg rolls... Decided to try them, probably not a good idea to order egg rolls at an Italian restaurant. They were a little soggy and a bit tasteless. Couldn't finish. Every thing else was good though I would come back here. The piano guy was also solid, however he did not sing so it was all instrumentals. Would have thought he would have played some more classic "rat pack" type songs but it ended up being quite a bit of 80's 90's pop songs. Was not bad, just not what we were expecting. The service was friendly and solid. Come check it ou!

This place is a gem!!! Came here because they have a dog friendly patio after driving up and down Del Prado looking for a dog-friendly place to eat. What a find! We are from NYC and are pretty used to good Italian food. This place was right up there with some of the best we have had. And the service was top notch! Celia was our server and she could not be more attentive. We started with the meatballs which were super light and tasty. The sauce was outstanding! Paired that with their garlic bread and we were in heaven! My wife had the baked cavatelli in bolognese sauce which she loved. The pasta was made that day and the food was piping hot. I had the shrimp scampi pasta which was light and the shrimp was perfectly done. The portions were huge and certainly can be shared. Save room for the tiramisu which was also outstanding! The mascarpone was light and the lady fingers had the right amount of crunch. This places is a must when you get tired of the standard “fish and chips” and when you want some really good Italian food! We also made it a point to meet Jimmy (the chef and owner) and his wife (also an owner) to praise their cooking and their restaurant. Well done!

For a martini bar, I was hoping to get a pretty good martini, unfortunately I got the worst espresso martini I've ever had. Maybe the other martinis are better. Appetizers were good.
