Tell me about Lüke

Some of the best shrimp and grits I have ever had - get it with a poached egg.

Make one helluva' burger too.

I'm not sure what you mean. Place is really reasonably priced.

It was good but not great.

This is pretty much how I would describe the whole place. I also think that's exactly what it's aspiring to be.

worth the price of a Besh restaurant or are there others that are better?

It's not August. It's a different type of restaurant. All of Besh's restaurants are different. This place isn't high end fine dining. As someone said, it's exactly what it aspires to be for the class of restaurant that it is. It's not going to blow you away. It's not meant to. It's better than the average bear for that type of restaurant, in my opinion. I guess it depends on what you're looking for.

Go between 3 and 6 and get 50 Cent oysters and half off drinks. I like to go there at that time and usually me and the wife will eat 4 dozen oysters with a few beers on the cheap. Some of the best oysters I've ever had came from Luke.

I appreciate that you went the extra mile to add the umlaut.

Where's this place at?

IMO the worst of any Besh restaurant. Good for a burger but for anything else I would go somewhere else.

Besh's steakhouse is easily worse than Luke.

While it's true of a lot of places, it's particularly true of Luke - it matters what you get. I've had some really tasty meals at Luke and some really mediocre ones.

I still haven't made it there to eat a full meal, but go the bar for oysters fairly often. They have a decent selection of beers and bourbons, so I love the 1/2 price happy hour.

I'm actually heading down there to meet some people this afternoon for oysters and drinks, maybe I'll stay and eat after.
