   Amazing service. Delicious food. Beautiful surroundings. Brought a very restaurant selective friend who declared that it was the best restaurant in Asheville that she had ever had the pleasure to dine in.

   Another great meal! Tried the chef’s cut steak for the first time and we loved it. The lemon pizza and tiramisu were fabulous, as always. And Francisco, our server, could not have taken better care of us. Again, bravo Luminosa!

   First time eating there. Everything was wonderful. Food was delicious. Ambiance very nice. Excellent waitress. Portions generous. Courses well paced so you could enjoy your meal without feeling rushed. Two suggestions. The only portion that wasn't VEEEERY generous was the main course. The pork entree itself was ample, but there was no real side. There was a nice beet topping, but a side vegetable would have made the plate seem less barren. And the puffed pig skin, while tasty, was not an adequate substitute for a side starch. The other suggestion would be to have a dairy free dessert option. My wife is lactose intolerant and couldn't enjoy a dessert. I had the panna cotta, which was terrific. Easily the best since we went to Italy on our honeymoon 27 years ago. The rigatoni and sausage was insanely delicious.

   The staff worked well together. The welcome card on the tables was so sweet to be signed by all the wait staff and chefs. The food was impeccable. Everyone there was super friendly.

   The food and weight staff were excellent. I often steer away from restaurants that are part of hotels but luminosa exceeded my expectations. I had a specialty cocktail that was excellent and every dish that we had was excellent also.

    The food and service at Luminosa was excellent. Kristin was our waitress last night and she was one of the best servers I’ve had over the years.
