We had a wonderful time there last Friday. Their outdoor space must be designed for such beautiful early autumn afternoon and after 2PM we had the luxury of having the whole space to ourselves. Our hostess was a very pleasant and attentive lady and overall the service was impeccable. Detail tells everything: the soup was divided for two of us before being served.

More tribute should be paid to the food. This place excels in baking - how am I going to describe the amazing texture of the bread and pastries! The soft crab BLT really really impressed me. You can easily cut through this giant thing in front of you with a knife. The two slices of loaf were so crispy as well as light and soft - to the point that I'd like to conceive them as pieces of crispy cloud… And the soft crab, tinted with the smoky flavor of the bacon, was itself very delicious. At the same time, we pretty much enjoyed the sweet corn soup (which had an interestingly complex taste), the ricotta dumplings, and the stonefruit galette. After all, we agreed with our hostess: "everything on the menu is good."

In town just one night, I took a chance and headed to Lucques at five pm just as they were opening, hoping to grab a quick dinner without a reservation. As luck would have it, the restaurant was actually closed for a private tasting dinner with two guest chefs, but the staff graciously invited me to stay and found me a seat at a quiet table. The price tag for the prixe fix meal was $150 and well worth every penny. Just over $200 including one drink and the tip, I absolutely enjoyed every mouthful prepared by chef Suzanne Goins and the two guest chefs. From wood fired pizza to grilled veggies, seared fish to duck, the meal was amazing. The melon panna cotta for dessert was the perfect ending to a really outstanding meal. The restaurant is gorgeous, the staff professional and accommodating. Just be aware that the valet parking is cash only or you will need to go back inside and outside with a credit card. I would absolutely go back to Lucques the next time I'm in town.

Scottish night - what fun! Obviously this is a fav restaurant for many people with means. This was a special treat outing for us and it was a treat. It was a Sunday night and a prix fixe menu with a Scottish theme. We were greeted by a friendly wait staff, there was a bagpipe player, a lively group celebrating a birthday in the bar, and a simple yet elegant dining room. We decided to put our dinner in the hands of the chef. We ate things we wouldn't normally choose and enjoyed every minute of it. From fish soup to haggis, (a modified version from the traditional recipe) we loved every bite and every dish went back clean. The wine pairings were lovely and unique (I know nothing about wine except for what I like and don't.) The sommelier was knowledgeable and friendly, sharing tidbits that were interesting and fun, despite my lack of viticultural expertise. All in all it was a great night. It was a splurge, mostly funded as a gift from my parents, but an experience that will be remembered as delightful. I highly recommend!

This is the second time I’ve tried it. I’ve given it the varsity effort but it’s been misses both times. Normally I wouldn’t complain but the service kept stumbling. Decor is good. Music is good. Food is just decent. Service stumbled, like I said.

An LA classic! Lucques is a cornerstone  of the LA food scene. You simply will not find more perfectly balanced plates of fresh seasonal dishes than at Lucques. Everything here is perfect from the fresh baked sour dough with cultured butter and fleur de sel that they serve when you sit down to the French inspired pastries like the cherry and chocolate marjolaine at dessert and everything in between. I could go on and on but really you just have to try it, I guarantee you won't regret it.
