    On a Saturday night at Lumi, our table was located on the rooftop near the kitchen. It was a nice location for our group of five. The ambience was lively and fun. There was a dj and a good number of people present. The noise level was fairly loud though not too loud preventing us from having a conversation We took the suggestion of our waitress and started with a couple of cold plate dishes. We had the Akira Back Pizza and Bluefin Tuna Tatiki. The pizza was very tasty, though be aware there were jalapeño pieces on them (easy enough to flick them off if anyone didn’t want the spice). The tatiki was fine though our group felt the slices were very thin and a bit small. We then tried the Rock Shrimp Tempura and Cauliflower Tempura. Both were delicious and were plenty for our group to share. Finally, we had four signature rolls. We tried the Lumi, Sea Bass Serrano, Godzilla, and Puff Salmon. We enjoyed all four. The Sea Bass Serrano was our favorite. Though they really were all well made and had plenty of flavor. The service was very good. The food came out timely. Our waitress, Bailey was attentive, knowledgeable and friendly. Great time!

    Such a great experience, as always. Book in advance because it gets booked up quickly. We have dined in San Diego location many times and have experienced the Colorado Springs location as well. This is by far our favorite steakhouse in San Diego- and we have done them all!

    We went tonight for Thanks giving Eve dinner. The food is hands down one of the best. We had king crab, filet, sea bass, crab cake. Everything was so so so good. On top of that, Josh who helped us through out the night make the whole experience top notch. He is simply wonderful and amazing. I hate writing reviews because I am super lazy. But had to leave this one for both the restaurant and Josh!
