LuQa?

[HalleyP]

Has anyone been to LuQa, opened in downtown Dallas in the past few weeks? It sounds interesting but I'm curious as to what impressions have been before we make our reservations.
Thanks.

Don't know if you have gone already, but here is my opinion...

I really enjoyed my dinner last night at Luqa. For appetizers our table of 4 girls split the calamari and the duck spring rolls, which was plenty to share. The calamari had a delicious lime cream sauce and I would highly recommend it, but the spring rolls were a little bland. 2 girls had the short rib, 1 had the filet, and I had the monkfish on a bed of hearts of palm and artichoke ravioli - YUM! No one shared bites as we normally do, which I believe means we all loved our dishes too much. The wine list had a large selection in all price ranges and the service was helpful and prompt. I am anxious to go back to the rooftop gardens in the springtime...lots of fountains, palm trees, lounge chairs.

There are some great reviews on Citysearch (so good you wonder if its all from employees). But, I am trying Luqa tonight and will report back.
