We went tonight around 6:30pm. Hostess greeted us and got table. We ordered pretzels and meatballs sub. Huge pretzels with mustard and smoked Gouda cheese dip. Pretzel was soft and delicious specially cheese dip. Meatballs sub was good but kind bland so we put mustard from pretzels and lot of black pepper. Of course we ordered old vines Zinfandel with meal. Oh boy so great and only $9 / glass. Also we ordered bread pudding. Was delicious. Nice clean place. Definitely recommend read more

This place exceeded my expectations. The service was very good, the food delicious, and the ambiance was nice. You can actually have a conversation and hear yourselves. I had the spaghetti and meatballs. My partner had a Western burger. Both, did not disappoint. read more

Right in the heart of historic Jackson is Luka's. A beautiful dinner spot for our Saturday date night. Old historic brick meets new chic decor, fireplace and quaint candles on every table. But the food and drinks topped the night! My husband had the New York steak and potatoes and I had the spaghetti and meatballs -- honestly best dishes in the Gold Country! Elizabeth A was our waitress and was excellent. Thank you Luka's for a beautiful dinner spot on our way home to the Central Valley... read more

Came through town on a whim, our bartender Robert was very attentive, recommended the Brussels and fillet mignon. Both were EXCELLENT! Will definitely recommend to friends and stop in next visit. read more

I only stopped in for the Cajun chowder the one time, but it was very good. I keep meaning to get it again, just haven't had had time. Bartender served me. She wasn't exactly enthusiastic about being there or serving me. We all have bad days. The building has been there since before the beginning of time, so you can really feel that, see it and smell it. read more

First time visit, and we had an AMAZING dinner. Delicious burger and Monte Cristo, portion size are huge! Great value, great service! Our new favorite restaurant in Jackson! read more

We went here on New Year's Eve for dinner. Entree, dinner and dessert was all included in the price. Not what I'm used to and it was only for this occasion. Service was excellent and the cook came out to talk to each table to see if people were satisfied and wish people a Happy New Year . I thought that was a nice touch. Ambiance was nice, simple, cozy. read more

The staff was wonderful and the food was prompt and delicious! I wouldn't change much about my visit to this restaurant and we will definitely be back. read more

At the recommendation of a great friend we tried out Luka's. We had the most amazingly service and the food and drinks we spot on! We will be back! read more

Great restaurant located in downtown Jackson right in Main Street. Beautifully designed and great customer service. Food was on point! Delicious calamari. I had the heirloom salad with chicken and it was so fresh and delicious. Hubby has a good steak sandwich with beef stew soup. My son thoroughly enjoyed his mushroom Swiss burger. Great lunch and perfect for our first time here. read more

Food was excellent. We had the western burger and steak salad. Both were delicious. Bartender Steve is very entertaining. We would definitely eat here again. read more

Found myself in Jackson for a job interview. Walked over to Luka's for dinner from The National Hotel. Nice place. Nice atmosphere. The food was very good--pork chop special with fried baked potato. I plan to return another time. read more

The food was spot on. I was pleasantly surprised to find such excellent quisine nestled into old town Jackson. The menu is simple but the quality steals the show. It tasted perfect and the portions were enough to more than satisfy. I will stop here again next time we visit the area. read more

Service was excellent and food was very tastefully prepared . The atmosphere of the restaurant was remarkably cozy.

12/06/2022, a beautiful day in Amador County to celebrated our 47th wedding anniversary. Looking forward to a tasty warm meal. Sadly, we were so very disappointed with Luka's. My husband ordered the mango pulled pork and found it to be bland, the fries were tasteless and appeared as if they were leftovers from the prior day. I ordered the fried chicken, green beans with garlic mashed potatoes and gravy. I had no idea the gravy would be beef gravy poured over the entire meal. To say the least, it was an awful... I couldn't taste the garlic in the potatoes, the green beans had no taste other than the bland bitter gravy and as for the chicken, I took two bites and placed my dinnerplate to the side. read more

This place is great! The food is amazing and the restaurant is clean and inviting. The service is top notch! Perfect place for a nice date night! read more

Absolute best food! From the appetizers to dessert - everything is delicious. Amazing service! I cannot recommend this place highly enough

We stopped in for lunch. Very friendly, prompt service. The small wedge salad was just right for a light meal, and my husband's western burger was large, perfectly cooked, and delicious! Garlic fries were also yummy! read more

Have enjoyed all the meals we've had here. Service is good, even when they're busy. Servers are knowledgeable about their product. The burgers are fantastic! read more

The food was fantastic and not plain like most American restaurants in Amador that all have the same basic meals on the menus. I liked their twist on the western burger; the onion strips are amazing! Staff was friendly as well read more

Mother's Day our sons and families treated us to an early dinner at Luka's Restaurant in Jackson. The special Mother's Day menu was perfect. Our server took our drink order and I asked what the purple drink was that I saw online. Turns out it is called Amethyst (gin martini) YUM! OMG Cream of Asparagus soup or choice of 3 salads. Four Filet dinners and two salmon dinners. The filets were so tender and cooked perfectly served with mashed potatoes and asparagus. Our 6 year old grandson was also given a choice of burger and fries or fancy mac and cheese but chose the salmon and loved it. Two choices of desserts, layered strawberries and white cake or the other dessert served in a martini glass. Perfect day with family. read more

I loveee Lukas! So so good! Food is so tasty and the service is bomb! Love it! 10/10 would recommend

We were visiting the area and had dinner at Luka's . The dinner was fabulous. The server was professional and very knowledgeable about the food. We really enjoyed the atmosphere and the food was fantastic. We will be back! read more

I was in the town of Jackson this afternoon wandering what to eat when I saw a FISH & CHIPS special of the day on a small chalkboard out on the sidewalk. I'm a big fish chips fan so I went in to Luka's to try it out. I have to say 100% to me. Not a ton of bread and nicely cooked fancy fries real good. Fish and Chips is only a Friday thing here but they just happen to have it this Saturday also. Everything looked good, and everyone inside had a smile on there face. If your in Jackson you must go. read more

Food is good and has a full bar which is nice. Also it's one of the few places to go that Is open early in the week. Most restaurants in the area are closed Monday and often Tuesday as well. read more

This was our 1st time and last! Do not order the meatball sub! It was tasteless cold soggy and sub par at best. I took one bite of the meatball after removing it from the huge soggy roll and it had no seasoning. My fiance tried to eat it because he hates to waste food and is not in any way picky and he could only stomach one bite as well. He had a burger that was not great as we split it and didn't finish it. Save yourself some $$$ . $22 for a small not great burger. Go across the street to Brickhouse brews and get an amazing flavorful burger you will want to finish. Also may I add that the cook came and asked about the sandwich , saw we didn't eat it and charged us for it anyway. Upon reading reviews for this place I see a few people couldnt stomach that meatball sub read more

It's still very good, and today they had some lamb chops that I really liked but wish they did the calamari rings with legs instead of the strips, though they're not bad, but the tartar sauce is awfully bland. I was with a group of 9 and have noticed they have a lot of rules around group policies, some a bit odd. I think they wasted more of their own time trying to avoid splitting the bill up by couples than it would have taken to just do it to begin with. But aside from that the service was fine, and has been the past year or two. read more

I have been to this restaurant twice in the last week. I was by myself and was refused a table. I was told I could only sit at the bar. The first time I did. The food was excellent. Last night I returned. The bar was pretty crowded and I preferred a table. The hostess refused a table. I called asking to speak with management who was not available. The woman I spoke with said they only have four tops and can't seat a single person there. I have never heard of a policy like this. I think it is rude and poor hospitality for food service. I ended up at Brick and Brew down the street. I let them know what had just happened, a second time. They gladly gave me a table, and the food was delicious. I will be dining at Brick and Brew next time I am in town. read more

Momma and I stopped in for dinner during an overnight stay at the National Hotel on our way to Nevada. Great menu, full bar, wonderful service. Momma had a Burger with fries and I had the Pulled Pork with Mac and Cheese. Both were great. Momma's burger came cooked perfectly to order with killer fries. Fries looked and tasted fresh cut not frozen. The Pulled Pork with Mac and Cheese was amazing. Lots of pork, BBQ sauce on the creamy mac and cheese. Note that they added lots of hot sauce to the dish. Wonderful for me but YMMV so ask for it on the side if you don't like it spicy. Momma had I both started with a drink from the full bar. Great selection of premium spirits and really unique cocktails. I wish I could remember our server's name but memory fails. She was fabulous and everyone else we interacted with was very friendly. Nice atmosphere in the dining area inside. A patio is advertised but we didn't check it out. A nice place for dinner and/ or drinks. Go. Eat. Enjoy. read more

I've been here twice now. Service is great everyone is friendly and attentive. I had the fried chicken with mashed potatoes, pretzel with beer cheese, fried asparagus with lemon zest and aioli, garlic fries, beer on tap(a must), and an Amador Chardonnay. This was obviously shared and on separate visits . I sat in the dining area by the fireplace and next visit at the bar with a great bartender. She was great. I highly recommend eating here and walking around the shops as well after. read more

Been here a few times now. The service is always good, the Ambiance is cool, but the food in my opinion isn't great. It's ok. It's trying to be a little on the nicer/fancy side and it's just not quite there. It's not bad, but I never walk out thinking that was great food. read more

We just moved to Jackson and decided to stroll though downtown. we happened to eat here by circumstance, but had the best meal, and service, we've had in a long time. we had the fried asparagus, garlic Parmesan flat bread, strawberry salad, pulled pork mac & cheese, and the cookie and ice cream. My son is the world's most picky eater and he said this is his #1 choice of restaurant, EVER! This is a MUST try. read more

Would not recommend. Hubbie ordered hamburger medium rare. It was cooked well-done. I ordered the salad ($12). It was basically all lettuce. There were little to no ingredients on the salad. Waitress apologized and said the cook was new and still learning. Will not be going there again read more

Went in for happy hour and the food was delicious! If you like Brussels sprouts, these were some of my favorites. Service was great too -- blanking on the bartenders name, Michael, maybe? Made a refreshing drink of the day and had great recommendations for the menu and local attractions. Highly recommend. read more

Luka's food is delicious, but if you want to have a good cocktail with your meal go somewhere else. I ordered a well vodka cranberry and could not taste one bit of alcohol in it, so I politely told the server who was very sweet and offered to have it remade...the bartender was very loud and rudely said, "if she complains again tell her it has one shot in it and she can pay for a double". When I got my drink back it still pretty much tasted just like cranberry juice When I got the bill, I was charged $7.50 for a WELL cocktail, which I wouldn't have minded if I was actually able to taste the vodka...yikes read more

New Year's Eve. None of the food is fresh. I got the cheapest meal offered. Penne pasta. $53. Nothing special. I've had better in my local pizza place where it's $16. Noise levels are reasonable. Service is good. The sashimi was tasty with only a slight hint of fishy taste. You can ignore it if you try. read more

Went here w my wife and kids on our way to Visalia from Reno. Stayed at the Historic National hotel 2 minutes walking away. Everyone liked it. Staff was very attentive and my steak was done perfect medium. Calamari strips were a light brown and didn't have that used oil taste you run into at lots of places. Will come here again! read more

I would have given a 4 or 5 if our waitress wasn't the rudest waitress I have ever had! The food is AMAZING!! Drinks....AMAZING! But the waitress we had was horribly rude. We went on 10/22/22 and We WISH we got her name because we would suggest asking for someone else if you go. Lol Other than her it was great, we will probably order take out next time though. read more
