This was one of the best meals I've ever had. I had the organic vegetable soup. It was creamy without being heavy and the flavor was fantastic. Husband had arancini. They were the best we've ever tasted. And the homemade whipped ricotta underneath was superb. He had bruschetta chicken. I had Lumis chicken without the shrimp. It was served with snow peas, asparagus and mashed potatoes. Every single item was primo. Even the pear basil martini, coffee and cappuccino were perfect. I'm so glad we found this place. We will absolutely be back. Oh - it should also be noted the service was on point. Quick and friendly without being rushed. 10 stars would suit them better. read more

Lumis exceeded all expectations. Highly recommended, excellent service and outstanding food. I have tried many restaurants in NJ but keep coming back to this one. It has a loyal local following and I can see why. Impressive consistency. Book your reservations now. You will not be disappointed!!! read more

My husband and I went here for my birthday dinner. We started with Caesar salad and pasta Fagioli soup. Both were excellent. The "Sunset Martini" was delicious. I got the mixed grill seafood which was very good and my husband got the penne with vodka sauce. The special dessert was zeppolis. Absolutely delicious. It's a bit pricy but I would definitely go back for a special occasion. read more

We brought our 11 week old son with us which was nice! Every single employee was extremely kind, friendly, & accommodating. The food was amazing - oysters were so fresh and delish! I got the mushroom ravioli which was sooooo good! The cocktails looked great, environment was good! Excited to have a place like this in town. read more

This place was amazing for a date night for my girlfriends birthday. Can't beat the food here. We weren't disappointed with anything we ordered. Staff was also extremely friendly and attentive while we were there. read more

Bad food - 2 hour wait time - and an owner with an attitude It's been a while since I experienced anything like this place. Was seated by a nice host. Ordered two drinks an app and 2 mains. 1 four and 45 min in we still had not been served our main course. We noticed 5 other couples had also not been served their food. The waiter did not check on these tables , did not apologize for the wait, did not explain it would be over an hour and a half for dinner. At this time two couples at the bar began complaining and the table next to us started talking to us about it (they eventually cancelled their dinner after not getting it for 2 hours). The owner must have finally realized and as I am paying the check comes over to the table. I wish I recorded this interaction. My wife nicely told him she was disappointed that it took so long and in an hour and a half nobody came to tell us why or check on us at all. He instantly fires back "what do you want from me with an attitude." At that point I let him know how I felt and left. Nobody in that room will ever eat at this dump again. You aren't gonna make it buddy with overpriced terrible food and your awful attitude. NEVER AGAIN - DO NOT GO HERE read more

This is one fabulous restaurant! Never disappoints. Convenient location, ample parking. The owner is so accommodating and so kind. It's obvious that he takes pride in his business. The food is just exceptional! Generous portions, so fresh, made with quality ingredients. Perfectly seasoned. We keep coming back. You have to try it. read more

Went for dinner with a friend, our server who I unfortunately did not catch his name was very friendly and accommodating. They start you off with bread and a delicious roasted pepper and sundried tomato dip. I was eating it even after I was done with my entree! Our app was the arancini also delicious and my entree was the fettucine salmon once again very yummy. The only big miss for me was dessert which was the zeppoles. They were undercooked and had an unpleasant taste to them. Thankfully my cappuccino and the complimentary biscotti kind of made up for it. read more

Wow, this was the perfect dining experience. We gathered for a double birthday celebration and all of us were blown away by the food and the service. They have professional old school waiters that really enhance your dining experience. From food and drink recommendation to timing of dishes being served, everything was perfection. The food was amazing. For appetizers the fried calamari was crisp yet very tender inside. The Ahi tuna had amazing flavors and the Spiedini alla romana special was probably in the top 2 of the best I ever had. We were using everything available to soak up the fantastic sauce. For main courses the Flounder florentine special melted in your mouth. The Chicken bruschetta was something different that none of our party had ever had before. Great combination of flavors. The Salmon, Branzino and Mahi Mahi rounded out the table and all requested modifications to their selections that the chef executed perfectly. Desserts were awesome. Even something as simple as Raspberry sorbet seemed to be elevated and the fact that the coffees and desserts came out at the same time was appreciated as most restaurants nowadays seem to bring the desserts and then 10-15 later the coffees come out or visa-versa. They really had the timing perfect during the whole meal. Looking forward to our next visit. read more

What a beautiful place filled with wonderful people! Was very happy that they have a (new) parking lot which was easy to find with clear signage. Walking in, the atmosphere is lovely, romantic, inviting, clean and refined. The staff was attentive and kind throughout our visit. We felt like special guests in this wonderful place. Importantly, the food was absolutely, positively delicious on every level. Ordered the Arancini (rice balls) to start and they were so good that I forgot to take a photo before eating them. My man went for a specialty drink when he ordered the Hibiscus Old Fashioned and ended up having two. For our entrees, I opted for pasta with their homemade lobster ravioli. It was so good, I almost licked the plate. He went for the New York strip and finished everything faster than I've ever seen him eat anything. The portions on everything were also perfect because it left us with room for dessert. And dessert was so worth it! Whether you get the créeme brûlée or the molten lava cookie, you will not be disappointed. 10/10 would recommend for a family dinner, friendly outing or a date night. read more

Great place to have a wonderful dinner. Very warm welcome and food was fantastic. The staff is professional and extremely knowledgeable about the menu, food allergies and cocktail selections. Their gluten free menu is extensive and everything we tried was delicious. The gf fried calamari was so tender and tasty. This probably is the best gluten free restaurant I've been to in a very long time. We will continue to have dinner here often. We have brought our friends here, too. Love this place and the owner and staff are the best!! read more

Here in Jersey for a business trip and let me say that Lumis did not disappoint. Started with the lobster bisque, then the blue point oysters, followed by the veal melanease and finished with the teramisu. Everything was excellent and spot on. Portion were above average and prices were excellent. The bartender Nick was not only quick and accommodating but very knowledgeable and social. Highly recommend this establishment. read more

Food is delicious service is awesome. Highly recommend this restaurant.Never have I done a review bad or good, but I was so impressed with everything here that I couldn't resist. read more

The food, the service and the atmosphere are all top notch! The owner Svendi (sp?) and his son Nick (the bartender) always make us feel like we're a part of the family. The pork chop with hot peppers is delicious! The homemade mushroom ravioli is my favorite entree and the Lumis salad is BEST salad you'll ever taste! read more

We went to check out the restaurant this past Sunday evening to try the food to see if it was good to reserve it for my son's First Holy Communion lunch. The restaurant is very nice, has its own parking lot, modern, very clean and has a beautiful bar and wine display. The food was excellent and the service was impeccable. They accommodated us with a dish that was not in the menu that day to be able to taste it. The owner came to our table to ask how everything was and I asked if I could book the lunch. He went to check the date and he was already booked for that day. They have two separate rooms that can be used for private events and the main room. Upon leaving we stopped to talk to him again and he said made it happen!! He sat down with us that same night to explain the menu and the best options for our party size. I was very happy to say the least and we can't wait to celebrate our son with family and friends!! I highly recommend this restaurant! read more

No good. Clams oreganata tasted like they were frozen. Burrata wasn't Burrata. The veal was so thick you needed 2 steak knives to cut it. Amarena cherry gelato was on the menu for dessert. My husband loves those cherries. He received icy vanilla ice cream with maraschino cherries. Terrible. So many better Italian restaurants to dine at. Don't waste your time or money. read more

My wife found Lumi's by looking for a new restaurant for us on Open Table. We gave them a try and loved it so much we booked a reservation for Mother's Day. I tried the Chicken and Shrimp Gorgonzola and give it 5 stars. I can't wait to try something else. read more

i'm normally very careful with my recommendations, as everyone's taste is different. But Lumi's is one of the local gems that can be recommended for any occasion, or just because... it's been awhile since we had a level of service that this restaurant provides. We ate there before and liked the food and the atmosphere. But tonight we've had a small family celebration, and we can't stop talking about this place - excellent food, elegant, classy setting and presentation, really amazing service! The owner and the whole team have the patience of a saints, they listened, advised, accommodated every request and addressed all our wishes and preferences (the whole bunch of them). We had to make quite a few changes on a fly - the team has helped us every step of the way, and made us feel welcome, comfortable, happy. Every single detail was addressed very professionally, and immediately, we didn't have to ask. We just came there, relaxed, had a great time with our family and really enjoyed every moment of it. Thank you very much for a beautiful dinner! Absolutely recommend Lumi's to those who knows what a restaurants supposed to be about! read more

Can't believe we are just discovering this place. UNREAL. The food, atmosphere, and service was all excellent. Good size portions, everything was cooked perfectly, we will definitely be back! read more

The food was amazing! The staff was very attentive and respectful. Will be back soon!!
