About this business
Owned by celebrated restaurateur Suzanne Goin, Lucques has been the recipient of many accolades and awards since its inception. Featuring a contemporary cuisine rich in Mediterranean flavors, the menu is a hit with the crowds, owing to its seasonal take on the dishes. The crowd consists of the elite and the rates are definitely on the higher side. Nevertheless, the meal justifies the prices.

Such bad attitudes – C'mon! So we go for restaurant week and the choices are labelled with an asterisk. My partner can't decide what to order so we're told my order won't go in until both are decided. Fine, we say, no problem. This is where the attitude starts. I get the restaurant week items, partner decides to get a starter of squid and the night's chicken dish. Mine, citrus salad, steak (medium) and chocolate torte. Quality of the fare is acceptable, steak a bit tough, chicken, salty; not on par with other less expensive ... read more
Delicious, but a little... – Delicious, but a little disappointed. Fine line between delicate and bland, and some of the dishes tilted toward uninspiring. Expensive.
What a drag! – I guess I'm just not that hip. When I go out for a romantic meal, I don't want to feel like I'm sharing it with my husband plus the strangers at every neighboring table. Is a little elbow room such a bad thing? Anyway, we had ourselves transferred to the patio for a little more privacy. This was fine, but why do two person table have to be sooooo small? Every time a new item comes to the table I feel like I'm in some sort Vaudeville act, trying to rearrange all the pieces, balancing saucers on my head. Adding ... read more
Consistently excellent food, a solid restaurant – What can I say, Lucques continues to amaze. The location is nice, the ambience is relaxed and the food is just perfect. I ordered a fish dish which was so flavorful, probably the best fish dish I have had in years. The waiter was not pushy at all. The hostess could have been more welcoming but oh well, the food makes up for it. A perfect place for true fine French cuisine.
Suzanne Goin is the best of the best!! – What can I say, there isn't a detail left to desire... the team behind Lucques (especially Suzanne Goin) is genius! The food is perfectly executed and the decor is simple and understated but warm & inviting. My favorite time to go is Sunday, when the Supper is anything but ordinary. Truly LA's best restaurant!!!
Great if you're in to being ignored – Five of us met at Lucques Saturday night for late cocktails and maybe an appetizer-- the kind of thing LA restaurants and night spots thrive on. We were ignored for nearly 10 minutes after walking in. When the host finally greeted us, we were told we couldn't sit at a table because we weren't ordering dinner. Keep in mind it was 11:30pm and the dining room was nearly empty! After debating with the man, he condescended to allow us to sit at a table only if we walked to the bar to get our ... read more
Great service! Cute Place for lunch! – I went here for a Saturday lunch and it was a very pleasant experience. The food wasn't exceptional -- I've definitely had better, but the ingredients were fresh and I liked what I ordered. The main thing I enjoyed was the attentive service. Our server Amanda was great! In LA it can be hard to find restaurants that actually have good service so I was impressed by this one! Recommended!
Not Great!! – Went there on Tuesday. A good meal not great. A place that you could go with your parent and it would safe. Nothing stood out during meal but really nothing bad either.
Charming, excellent food. – I often take out of town guests here. Everything is so fresh, packaged in the right atmosphere. Whether you want to say in doors or try their patio, it all feels very personal. I can't how many times east coast guests have complemented their greens as they freshest they have ever tried. Its just the "right" place to go to.
