Luciano's

$$-$$$, French, Grand Bahama Island

User Rating: * 1.0

Fodor's Review:

Linens, soft candlelight, and a twinkling view of the harbor add to the glamour and romance of this sophisticated, second-story Port Lucaya restaurant with a dedicated following of yachters and locals. Luciano's has set the standard for fine dining here for many years. Its menu speaks French with English subtitles, including such specialties as coquilles St. Jacques provencale, filet au poivre vert (fillet with green peppercorn sauce), scampi flambé, Dover sole, stuffed quail, and chateaubriand for two, served in the formal, subdued dining room or on the verandah overlooking the marina. For a big finish, order the flambéed crêpes suzette for two.

Poor dining experience

Posted by sticka from Florida on 3/10/08

My husband and I ordered Chateaubriand for 2 as the entree, which was shown to us on a platter, then left at the side of the restaurant. Plated up by a waiter 5 minutes later, and left again. Finally arrived at the table completely cold. When we dared to comment that it was cold, we were argued with and told not to make a scene. One dish was taken away to re-heat in the microwave. The 2nd was taken away afterwards, so we did not eat together! The re-heated meals now had hot vegetables and potatoes, cold meat, and cold conjealed bernaise sauce, complete with skin. The staff were rude and ungracious, and the food overpriced for the quality. The decor also is about 20 years out of date - old fashioned and tired like the staff!
