    We were pleasantly surprised by the food at Lumen. We’d heard the restaurant was more about location than food so my expectations were low. However, everything we ate was delicious! Do not skip the cookie butter banana pie!

    We tried 6 dishes plus dessert (pavlova) and everything tasted great. The service was also great, never had to ask for a water refill, very attentive. The music was a little loud, but not terrible. Will definitely go back!

    Great food, excellent service. We loved the explanation of the courses as they came to the table as well as the drinks that got explained. My vegetarian friend really appreciated the options they had for her! Overall, a great venue for a work gathering. Which is what we were there for. We had the 5 course menu option and it was a 2.5 hour event. It was the perfect timing for me and my team. Would recommend, and will return in the future.
