Luma was a big disappointment. We booked the private room for a group of 11 (of which ambiance wasn't great - it feels 'cold' and office-like - the table looks cheap and in need of work). We had the chef's appetizers selection which were mediocre at best - steak tartar on a toast (not a great selection for a group), veggie spring rolls and jerk chicken sliders. I then had the kale salad for my first course - it was the worst salad I had at a good restaurant ever! The leafs were soggy and it felt like the salad was sitting in the fridge with the dressing on for an hour or more.
For main I had a duck dish, which was the best part of the meal - it was well made and tasty.
Then came the bill - we were charged for 12 people even though we were 11, as 'this is what the reservation'. We actually did send an email in the morning to update that we will be 11, but it shouldn't have mattered as the minimum order for the room is $800 and we spent well over $2000 - they insisted to have us pay for 12 and said that the events coordinator will contact us the next day and reimburse us the difference if all is fine. That's awful customer service!response / report this review -

Tried it once in summerlicious and it was a disappointment for everyone. The salmon was over cooked but the service was good.

The atmosphere, presentation and service are great. The food was a bit on the oily and salty side however. The salmon I ordered was also burnt on one part. Very expensive for what it is.

Food is ok, and that's it. Service is alright.
The only good reason to visit this place is when other restaurants are booked and you have the movie at TIFF the same night.response / report this review -

Summerlicious menu was very good. Service was quick but I kinda wish there was more food since it was so good.

Skip Luma and stick with the group floor Canteen. Ordered two cocktails, a martini and their festival special, the Church & Wellesley. Both were warm (I don't think the drinks every saw a shaker with ice). While the servers are pleasant, no one seemed to know what the other was doing. Our food went to the wrong table and the wrong food came to our table. Canteen is much better value for the money.

2 stars for how the food tasted but overall 3 stars only because I'm giving them points for their presentation of the food, great service and fancy atmosphere.
Thoroughly, thoroughly, I was disappointed with the food here. All the dishes were bland. Wedge Salad was basically an iceberg lettuce cut in half. I was appalled. Let's be nice and say that I at least liked the orange pieces in it, lol. Chicken Paillard was a grilled chicken breast meat with a poached egg on top. It was my first time trying an egg yolk covered chicken breast. Great idea but not something I would expect to eat at a high end restaurant, because I can make that myself at home. I left my Cinnamon Pavlova uneaten after few bites. It was too sweet and sticky. The only thing I liked was fresh blackberries.
On the other hand, the service was awesome. They provide a coat check service. They will fold your napkins while you excuse yourself from the table. They will smoothly move you from appetizers to main dishes to desserts. Too bad that the food wasn't on par with the level of the service.
To sum up, the dishes were lacking in creativity, imagination AND taste. Their menu was also a little confusing with the way they had listed their wine pairings for all of their dishes including appetizers and desserts. The meal was not a good value for what I got. If this Winterlicious lunch is reflective of their usual offerings, I probably won't return.response / report this review -

Me and my husband went to Luma for dinner before heading to the theatre. We ordered a bottle of Santome Merlot 2013 as written in the Wine menu. However, we were served a 2015 bottle and up on asking the server she said that their menu is not updated and if we didnt like the taste of the wine. Extremely upset and disappointed not only regarding her answer but also at her rude dismissive behaviour. It is about deceiving false advertisement. Moreover, she should have told us that they only had the 2015 bottle, in which case we would have chosen a different bottle. Trying to pass off a 2013 for a 2015 is just deceitful along with rude behaviour of the server. The taste of wine varies based on Year, soil, grape quality and we wanted 2013 red with our prime rib. Very disappointed, terrible experience and would not recommend Luma to anyone.

Luma during Winterlicious was a great experience. The service was great with water being refilled without prompting, food came out timely and portions were well sized (other than dessert). Make sure to have the bread with butter and honey an excellent combination that just melts in your mouth.
