We had Wonderful time celebrating our friend birthday, 12 of us. The food was wonderful, the Runner take care of us. Everyone helpful and nice. ❤️ Beautiful Christmas decorations. A bit pricey but worth it. Definitely will come back again.

Went to Luke’s for the first time. It’s Christmas season and they have the place decorated nicely with many people wanting to take the opportunity to snap a photo. The outdoor seating looked nicer from down below at the street. There were no heaters to ward off an evening chill. The view was a vacant lot, parking lot of another building, and freeway traffic. Kate was our server, and service was just average. Our food was not the greatest. We did not leave feeing it was worthy of the cost. Our Tempura artichokes were over cooked and mushy in consistency in the center, lacking true flavor. Kate offered to send them back but my husband was too hungry to wait. He had a grilled blackened chicken sandwich, adding bacon & avocado. The sandwich he received was decent. I ordered truffle Mac & cheese with an add of chicken bites. I don’t believe what I received was truffles Mac & Cheese, as my husband ordered the same as his side and they tasted different and were also different in color. The real disappointment was the chicken bites. They were more of a fried batter cruton. Very little chicken could be found. I ate just a couple bites and asked for a box. I let Kate know about the difference in Mac & Cheese from what I ordered and she did remove the unchange from the bill at my request. Overall this place was a missed opportunity for us. It is more in line with what I would expect at an Applebee’s. Sadly, I can’t recommend….unless of course, you are looking for a higher priced Applebee’s although Applebee’s actually has more flavorful food by comparison.

Stopped by Luke’s On Front with a friend for some delicious food and they even had my favorite seltzer, Happy Dad! We each ordered a chicken Caesar salad, one with grilled chicken and one with blackened. We split the Bruschetta as an app. You can’t go wrong with any of the menu items. Service and food 100%

After years of visiting old town, I learned of Luke’s being there the whole time. It’s located on the top floor of a corner building with great views, with entrance via just by the corner through low key door, to elevator. Top button is marked Luke’s.
We found seating for all moods from their banquet room seating large groups to booths, flat tops, bar height tables, and bar seats inside, and bar, high top, low top, and view facing seats outside.
The menu is impressive and inspired. We had the ceviche, spicy edamame, and walnut chicken sandwich with Cajun fries. The fries are fresh tasting like In n Out with the Cajun spice like 5 guys but amped up. The ceviche was fresh and tasty. The chicken sandwich was with a local made or in house made bread because it was elite. The edemame had a great butter flavor and was light spicy. Can’t wait to return and try their steaks, burgers, salads, and fish dishes.

We had a fantastic meal at Luke’s On Front. The food was outstanding and the service was absolutely top-notch. A special shout-out to our server, Kait. She couldn’t have been more helpful or kind, and her recommendations truly elevated the entire evening. Thank you, Kait! For the food: my wife’s favorite seafood pasta is served here, and the garlic edamame is to die for. Highly recommended.

This was my first time dining here and oh my goodness did they take care of my husband and I! It had been raining all week and the owner, yes the literal owner, dried off a spot on the patio for my husband and I to enjoy with a fire lit, our drinks present, and a candlelight for ambience. She in no way shape, or form, had to do that but the experience she provided to us was outstanding a small gesture that went such a long day and built a memory for us to reminiscence forever. The food here is amazing and so are the espresso martinis. If you are visiting Temacula area or surrounding it this is definitely a destination you must see! Thank you Luke’s for everything you do and creating a beautiful experience and Lexi for being such a sweet server to us!!!

We were greeted by Kaitlyn. She sat my family down to a table. My husband, my mother and two aunties who were visiting for Christmas. One aunty from England and the other from Australia. Kaitlyn was so kind and accommodating to us all. She made sure our food orders were exactly what each one of us would enjoy. She even pulled a window closed for us as the night air became chilly. She took pictures of us all too. My aunties and mother all walked away with smiles and happy full tummies too. Thank you Kaitlyn for making my family feel so at home.

Extremely underwhelming. The decor was cheap. The paper menus were falling apart and so stained, you couldn’t read some items. The food was bland. Everything was under-seasoned & the vegetables were almost inedible(mushy broccoli & raw carrots). They don’t give you bread with the meal. It felt more like a run-down bar than an upscale restaurant. Definitely not worth the $100/person bill.

Amazing place. Very friendly and fast service, beautiful views, sits on the rooftop. The food was great, I got a steak, wife ordered the risotto with a halibut I belive, and we had a calamari appetizer, all the food was fresh tasting and cooked to perfection. The waitress was friendly and quick. A little bit on the pricier side, but it makes for a nice day out or a sate night.

The best food with the best view in Temecula!
Luke’s on Front Street has become our go-to spot whenever we’re in town. The restaurant is always spotless, the atmosphere is fun and welcoming, and the service is top notch. I usually order the Chris Savage Burger which is one of the best burgers you’ll ever have, while my wife swears by the Ahi Tacos.
Jaimey is our favorite waitress. She’s friendly, attentive, and makes every visit an excellent experience. The bar also serves some of the best drinks in town, whether you’re just out for cocktails or enjoying a full dinner.
Whether you’re planning a date night, celebrating with a big group, or stopping by for a casual meal, Luke’s delivers every time. Highly recommend!
