    First Time Actually Eating at Luke's!! Usually We just Come for Drinks.... But Natalie was our Server and she was amazing! We got to talk with owner and she really shows out for her business! We got Brussels as an app, .... INCREDIBLE! We Got the Sun-dried Tomato Mac, Boneless Buffalo Wings, and Sloppy Joe Sammy and Everything Was So Good!!! It's Great to See an Owner Who Genuinely Cares for Her Restaurant, is Helping Out the Servers, and Checking on the Tables. Luke's is Definitely A Place You Don't Want to Miss Out On!! Thanks to our Server Natalie and Mrs. Kelly, We Will See You Really Soon!!

    Amazing service! Tyler was very attentive. Great food. Would definitely be returning.

    We've ate here probably four times since they've opened. Each time it keeps getting better! The view is priceless and perfect for a sunset! On our latest visit i had the grilled chicken on a bed of mashed potatoes. It came with baby carrots and broccoli. Loved it. My wife the carnivore had the fillet which was also on a bed of mash. Carrots and broccoli as well. Said it was delish! Great service, view and atmosphere here.

    Stopped in for an early Lunch with my Girlfriend while my car was being worked on nearby. Our View was Great looking out over Old Town and the streets below. Clean Air up there & no exhaust. A Beautiful Day with no clouds and a Blue Sky. Ambiance was really nice with a light breeze. We split the Bruschetta and the Calamari with lots of tentacles and two tasty sauces. Food was Delicious! She had a Lemon Drop Martini with Raspberry I had a Bloody Mary Brittany was our Friendly Server and Bartender too. We enjoyed ourselves up there with that Nice View!

    Luke's On Front staff were so kind to get our group of 8 in for dinner on a busy Saturday night. Our server was so sweet and made the bride-to-be in our group feel so celebrated with the dessert at the end of our meal with a sparkler. The food was ok! My turkey burger was good, the fries were disappointing, and the bruschetta was alright. Ambiance is loud but great for a night where you're looking to hang out and have a couple drinks or watch a game.

    It's been a while since I've been to Luke's on Front, and this visit was just okay. The patio seating and view were definitely the highlight. Unfortunately, the food didn't quite live up to my past experiences. It felt a bit flavorless this time around.

    Y'all are sleeping in this spot!!! Rooftop, prices not too crazy (the same as any place in Old Town) and delicious! I got to sit right on the corner, look out down into the whole street in Old Town and enjoyed a delicious drink with a great conversation.

    Celebrating my father in laws birthday.

    Our waitress Kate was so sweet and helpful. We went to celebrate my father in law birthday and Kate took great care of us. From drinks to food recommendations she took care of us very well.

    This is our food

    Choosing this place was the only mistake I made for our New Year's celebration. We came New Year's Eve at about 8 pm. The ambiance was underwhelming. The decorations were unimaginative and the whole vibe was just cheesy and cheap looking. It was raining and we did not get a view. The patio area was closed. Maybe that would have made a difference in the ambiance but not the rest of the evening. Honestly, this is a bar masquerading as a restaurant. I was fooled by looking at the website and the way it looks there made it seem like it was a really nice upscale place to go and so much more than what it actually is. Kudos to whoever made it do what it did. The food was passable at best, and it was hardly worth the price of $41.00 each for this. If you look at the two plates, they're totally different from each other. From a kitchen quality standpoint This is not acceptable. The plates should look the same when they come off the line. On one plate the salmon was properly proportioned: more of a rectangle. The other one was square cut and wide but not thick. We had three Broccoli florets each. Three (3). And three carrots. She had what looked like baby carrots and I had "regular" carrots. Notice how on my plate the veggies are dumped on one side (like as it was coming out the kitchen the cook remembered they were missing and dropped them on the plate as it passed him/her). On hers they are placed on opposite sides (as it should be). Plates were not wiped down on the sides, so presentation was just messy. The ONLY saving grace here was our waitress was phenomenal. Great personality, very genuine and personable. Her name was Melissa (hi Melissa! Thanks again). Hats off to her. And whomever made our drinks did a great job too. Saved the evening. Sorry, we didn't get her name. So, this would be a hard pass the next time we are down this way.

    The views

    Luke's is always a good time, the food is delicious, the ambience is vibes, and the views are very nice. Our server Tyler was very attentive and kind. Definitely will always come back

    Ask the Community - Luke's On Front

    What is the dress code? Is a casual place or do people get dressed up? Where are pictures of the place?

    Hello I was wondering if this establishment is kid and family friendly?

    With a nice bar and patio area with views of Old Town, it's really more appropriate for adult dining.

    Are guests required to wear Masks?

    Yes. When the walking in and are taken to their table. After they are seated of course take off. All tables are all socially distanced

    Are reservations necessary?

    No. It is pretty crowded on weekend nights, but usually they can seat you right away.

    Hands down, this is the best restaurant in town!…read more Since moving here, we've really missed San Diego's food scene--but last weekend, my wife and I visited 1909 for the first time, and we found that 1909 rivals many of our favorite places in San Diego. We started with a "Dirty" Vodka Martini for me and a Mac's Mule for her. Then, we ordered the Caesar Brussel Sprouts, the 1909 Burger, the Cilantro Lime Fish Tacos, and a couple more cocktails along the way. Everything was absolutely delicious! What really stood out, though, was the service. The entire staff treated us like we were longtime regulars--friendly, attentive, and welcoming without being overbearing. The ambiance was cozy and inviting, and reminded us of some of our favorite places back in San Diego. If you're looking for great food, excellent drinks, and an atmosphere that makes you want to stay awhile, this is the place. We'll definitely be going back!

Would definitely come back to try more of the drinks and menu. The 1909 bloody mary was 10/10. One of the best Bloody Mary's I've ever had. Seriously was amazing - spicy, flavorful, everything you want Eggs your way - standard 2 poached eggs, toast bacon and potatoes. Potatoes were super undercooked but the poached egg was perfect. Bacon was also a lil undercooked. Cranberry white cheddar salad was banging I must say. I added shrimp and it was suuuuper good.

Our server was amazing, and the food was super tasty. We ordered a bunch to share--pizza, burgers, shishito peppers, pesto pasta, and goat cheese toast--all of which were delish. That said, there were a few downsides. At one point, the server forgot to put in my order, which was fine since we were all full, but it was a bit funny waiting for a burger that wasn't even in the system. We were excited to hear the band, but with some tech difficulties and having been there over an hour, we decided it was time to head out. Overall, it's a good place with great vibes, good food, and wonderful service. Definitely a spot I'd return to for a relaxed night out.

    I have a good breakfast experience over two years ago…read more First thing we noticed that restroom was in aweful shape. We should have walked out then. Today breakfast was awful ! I had the short rib Benedict , the meat was dry as if they were freeze dried , the egg did not flow and was more on the soft build egg side and not up to par at all. There Belgium waffle was server was crispy and not light an airy , sub par. You could get a more satisfying breakfast at dennys. Totally did not meet expectations. I ask if these were the same owners as a few years ago and they said they were in transition. There drinks were room temp Go at your own risk at least for breakfast. Good luck!

Their French decor is modern and chic. We were there last night for the first time, and it will not be our last!

Loved and appreciated the chef's creativity of combining French and Asian flavors into every dish. I also chose a wine pairing option for drinks, and was introduced to a beautiful Sauvignon Blanc and Rose. Overall, it was a memorable evening with great food and service, and we are looking forward to visiting them again when they change their next season's menu with our friends.
