Always a great time at Luxe. Superior food quality and flavor. We especially love the bruschetta for an app and the strawberry shortcake for dessert! Anything you choose from the entree section is delicious! They go above and beyond for wonderful service and if you go on Friday or Saturday nights, they have live music which is always a treat! Keep up the great work Luxe Martini Bar!

Food was excellent, as always, and the Cadillac Margarita was excellent. I recommend the filet mignon dish. Meat was very tender and delicious.

What an amazing dining experience! Everything about this restaurant was superb. The ambience with the waves splashing was so romantic. The oysters were the freshest oysters my husband and I have ever had. The lobster bisque which was made table side was delicious. I had the miso black cod which was made to perfection. The Albariño wine paired perfectly with it. The main dish came with a side of mushrooms which were absolutely fresh and tasty. Who knew that mushrooms could taste so good. My husband had the prawns and the New York strip. They were both divine. For dessert we had the toffee pudding and chocolate cake. Both were perfectly decadent and delicious! Can’t wait to go back.
