    We went on country night and really enjoyed the house band and young performers singing familiar songs. Comfortable, friendly atmosphere.

    Luke's On Front - The fin filet trio was delicious!

    Luke's On Front

    We checked out this place for date night, and it was a solid choice! It's a rooftop bar and…read morerestaurant with a great view of Old Town Temecula. The vibe is nice--nothing too fancy, but definitely not too casual either. The food was really good. It had that fancy look to it and awesome flavors. We tried the seafood pasta and a big burger. The pasta was delicious, and the burger hit the spot, too. The Old Fashioned was a bit sweeter than I expected, though. Overall, it's a great spot with a fantastic view and a nice atmosphere. Perfect for grabbing a drink, enjoying the scenery, and digging into some good food or appetizers!

    Luke's was honestly a letdown, especially for how much we were looking forward to it. Save your…read moretime, they were slow, and your money. First off, the place did not feel clean. The floors were noticeably messy, some might even say gross. There were random spills that clearly had not been wiped up, and even the bathrooms were bad. Should we really be able to see a plunger and a dirty toilet brush while washing our hands? Service-wise, our waitress was nice, but overall it was slow. We waited a long time for our first round of drinks, and when the food finally came out, it was not even hot, which made it even more frustrating. The food itself did not live up to the price. The "tempura" artichoke hearts were basically just heavily breaded and fried, not light or crispy like you would expect or like the menu suggests. The charcuterie board, which was over $50, was kind of shocking. It looked like a random mix of deli meats, basic cheeses, canned fruit, and filler. Nothing felt special or worth the price. It looks amazing, but do not be fooled by what you see around you. You are better off spending $25 at Trader Joe's. The ribeye was wildly underwhelming. If I wanted a steak I could buy at Food 4 Less and grill in the park, I would do it myself. The chicken somehow managed to be even worse, dry and lacking flavor. Lemon and capers, where? Overall, it felt overpriced and poorly executed. Between the cleanliness issues, the long wait, and the disappointing food, it is easy to say it is definitely not worth your time. Check out the Gambling Cowboy instead. This is a no brainer when you read the replies from the owner to any negative feedback. If an establishment feels the need to defend itself in such an unprofessional manner, that tells you everything you need to know about taking your money elsewhere. No ownership, just blame. Nobody is out here writing reviews to ruin your business, you are doing that well enough on your own. "The lady doth protest too much, methinks."
