    Best Falafel anywhere! I found it at Central Park, Rochester Minnesota. I'm so happy!

    We came here because the reviews (at the time of this post) on Google were 4.6 and 3.8 on Yelp…read more First thing to note is that the parking is in the back on the building. The place has a rustic Middle Eastern vibe but it's not kept well. The table we first got had food stains on the table cloth and a dirty fur coat on the wall. We decided to move to a different table. I saw food on other tables as well. The owner spent most of the time in the back talking to someone than waiting on us. We didn't get silverware until the main course and never got water. I went to the fridge in the front after our meal was done because we were tired of waiting and thirsty. The falafel is the best thing that we had. It was fresh but a bit oil. It had a nice crunch to it and the flavor profile was good. The sauce with it was average but good. The mixed grilled platter was underwhelming. The best meat was the lamb. There wasn't much flavor in the chicken and the other meat was too dry. I think the veggies were a bit too chard for my liking. The shawarma was not that great. It seamed as if it was chicken chunks and not the properly cooked. The flavor was not great either. There's nothing given as a side or sauce. There's bottles of ketchup on the tables but they looked not too appealing to use. Instead of napkins, you get Kleenex. While the food can be good. I would recommend ordering takeout from here. As a small business I wish nothing but the best and hope the owner cleans up the place more and improves the customer service.

    It is very rare i would give 5 stars to a restaurant but the owner in this restaurant made it above…read moreand beyond! A very humble and nice man! Makes you feel like home. First he welcomed us with free middle eastern coffee called karak. Its dark black coffee with cardamom. We ordered the lamb kabob platter , hammus and pita bread. The food is delicious, hearty ,freshly made and authentic. And then comes the generous part! He came out with generous amount of free fried chicken for my friend and for me with freshly made baba ganoush and warm fresh pita bread! Not just that, he also gave us soda for free! Such a kind man with great hospitality. Even if it wasnt for the free food, i would still rate this restaurant highest because of the delicious food and such a humble and kind owner who makes you feel at home. You must visit atleast once to experience it.

    Delicious sums up my first experience at Lumi.. I have wanted to try this restaurant for the past…read moreyear, but with so many options in the downtown Rochester area, I tend to choose the same places. This time I chose Lumi and was not disappointed! From the very flavorful appetizer ( Muhammara) that I will crave forever complimentary puff bread, to the savory Turkish take on a beef stroganoff..which left our mouths filled with warm, toasty spice flavors.. which lingered well after the meal was done, to a more simple but equally as perfect in its own right.. Schnitzel! Crispy. Crust.. the best garlic mashed potatoes & both dishes came with a generous side of roasted Brussel sprouts! There was so much food & we brought leftovers home! We both are excited to return - & talked about the food the whole way home! Our server was helpful & explained what the items were and the interior of the restaurant is tastefully decorated, upscale (but we walked in casual & did not feel out of place). Lumi would be a perfect place for a date.. or with a group of friends!

    Came to Lumi at 5:00p on Friday we were able to be seated right away. The restaurant is very…read morebeautiful with a modern nature vibe I love the way the menu is set up all of the items are described which is super helpful for those of us less familiar with Turkish food. I love the mezze platter you get to try a bunch of the unique dips including hummus, baba ghanoush and girit (one of my favorites it had feta, pistachio, basil and walnuts), the carrot tarator surprised me it really highlighted the sweetness of the carrots, also enjoyed the muhamara which has red bell peppers walnut, sesame and tomato paste. This also come with a puffy bread. I unfortunately forgot to ask about tea but I enjoyed my Turkish delight martini. Just know it's definitely on the sweet side. My aunt has a nut allergy and they were super helpful pointing out which dips and other menu items would be safe for her. The food came out super fast! Many in my group wanted to order the lamb chops but they were out. Makes me think that's one of the star menu items. The next best was the lamb shank which was very enjoyable nice tender meat cooked in the lamb juices served with mashed potatoes and Brussels sprouts. I had the beef stroganoff. I feel like it's the first time actually ordering it from a restaurant. This was not the version I've seen before with thick gravy and egg noodles. It was a colorful dish of peppers generous beef tenderloin strips and a savory mushroom sauce served also with mashed potatoes and Brussels sprouts. As a table we ordered a lot of different things I was very happy with my options and am always happy to try new things!! Thanks for a great dinner!
