It’s always a fun birthday event for me and my mom! We love it every year! And our chef Izak was so fun! It was a great night.

The staff at Lumi were able to accommodate our early seating request which was an hour before our reservation. The sake flights are such a unique item to have and the 2 we had were amazing. The fish was super fresh and tasty. We also go a free mochi ice cream for our anniversary which was a very nice gesture. We found a $50 off a $150+ bill on the in kind app which was also super awesome! Highly recommend.

Somos un izakaya, nuestro concepto esta inspirado en un típico bar o restaurante japones, donde el menú esta diseñado con platillos que se piden al centro para compartir, nuestra cocina esta dividida en 3 partes: la robata (un asador japonés) los Katsus (tempuras) y la barra de sushi (nigiris, sashimis, conos y rollos), Tambien contamos con bebidas japonesas, como cerveza, sake y whisky.
