This was an amazing addition to the South Bay. I loved the whole meal. Truly everything was perfect but the oyster mushrooms and prawns were my favorites, as well as the Basque Cheesecake for dessert. I definitely recommend everyone to try this and I can’t wait to come back.

So glad I got to stop by Luka on the way home - the new dinner service from Bakers & Baristas.First, lets talk ambience. Although Luka uses the basic set-up of the structure of Bakers & Baristas, the team does a great job creating an entirely different, classy mood. The whole restaurants glows a bit more with a sexier orange light and candles all over the restaurant. Low-playing jazz and other suave songs play throughout the background.Second, lets talk the menu and style. The menu shows off an array of really of Asian Fusion / New American dishes. I unfortunately wasnt hungry enough to try a wide breadth but heres what I did get to order:*Marinated Cherry Tomatoes: Came highly recommended and granted, Im normally not a huge tomato fan. I think this was solid. I ate every last tomato and loved the dressing and ricotta. Just a nice mix of seasoning that helped create a smooth mix of flavors. The ricotta definitely was the star for me that helped elevate the dish.*Spicy blue prawns: My favorite of the night. Beautifully cooked, juicy prawns in a sauce that was simply was magnificent. The staff was so nice to add a baguette to soak all the sauce up in. A great mix of seasoning and spices.*Sundae: Probably the most beautiful dish of the night. The sundae was such a clever mix of complex and bold sweet flavors. The yuzu curd may not be to everyones liking but I thought it added such a nice zing at the end of every bite (make sure to scoop it up from the bottom).*Skin contact Straka wine: A good list of various wines and more to come apparently! A perfect complement to the meal.They also had an espresso menu at the end as well as some beer options. This all came out to about $80ish by the end of the meal.Service, which was mainly from the server, Jerrill, and the rest of the Luka team, was great and super attentive with constant water refills; great explanations about the menu; and a breakdown of the curated wine list.Parking is similar where there is usually enough parking in the lot (go past the restaurant to the middle area where there is usually a mix of more parking). Yes, the parking lot is super funky with some spaces that are super tight / not really realistic but think theres always something available.Kudos to the B&B team - hoping to try more in round 2 in the future!
