Century Hospitality Group has 'raised the steaks' with the unveiling of LUX Steakhouse & Bar. Located in the heart of downtown, diners at this upscale urban steakhouse enjoy a hip, refined design and a menu that would do any traditional steakhouse proud. The atmosphere is pure modern day elegance with its vibrant colours, rich fabrics and darkly stained woods. Chef Tony Le will have your taste buds dancing with his numerous innovative creations, far from ordinary steakhouse fare. Not just satisfied with providing Edmontonians with a great dining experience, the team at LUX set about 'raising the bar', offering guests a finer place to sit, sip & socialize. The rich tones, soft fabrics, stunning millwork and feature waterfall wall make the LUX Bar a definite destination for the business traveller and Edmonton's social network. In addition to housing a NY style long bar, guests can enjoy the full steakhouse menu and wash it down with a hefty selection of refined libations.
"We enjoyed our evening. The server was great. I was happy to spend our special evening at LUX. The only issue we had was the length of time it took for our meal to reach our table. The food was terrific once it did arrive."

"Have not had a meal I was disappointed in! An interesting ingredient always makes the daily specials intriguing. Serivce is just the right amount of attentiveness without hovering."

"Working very close to Lux means that it is a regular hangout on Thursdays for Bubbly. This specific occassion I was hosting a going away for a coworker and chose Lux lounge. We made the reservation and requested to be in the lounge but it was closed for a private event so we ended up in the dining room. Our service was excellent as always and the Lobster Poutine never fails to impress. Absolutely great place downtown that lives up the the high standards of the Century Hospitality Group."

"This time at Lux was disappointing. Our food was cold and our order was mixed up with another table. Our server was extremely apologetic about the mix up. Normally it is a fairly good steakhouse but it seems to have been an off night..."

"Not one of the restaurant's better efforts. Thought we could enjoy a few appetizers for dinner, had bucket of ribs, fries, and avocado crab dip. Unfortunately, the quality of meat for the ribs was below sub standard, and the fries were very greasy. Dip was good though. Alerted server, with no response nor explanation. Have been here before many times, unlikely to return based on this experience."

"Service was slower than usual tonight and a bit erratic, even after the large group of diners left for the evening. But usually the food and service here is very good, so hopefully it was just a glitch."

"We had been here once before and the food was just as good this time as it was last time. Overall everything was really good. However our service was quite slow. It may have been because we had a large party but certain things seemed to take a long time and common sense wasn't really used on certain things. Overall I was happy with the experience and would definitely return and recommend it to my friends."

"The lunch experience was excellent, and as this was a working lunch, the atmosphere lended to being able to converse without interruptions or having to compete because of noise levels."

"Had the 'downtown dining week' special. First course was great - beets and goat cheese. Second course was a huge disappointment, as the beef croquettes were flavorless and the smear was very strong. The smear tasted like over-reduced bottled barbeque sauce. But they got it right with the tenderloin and salmon that were cooked to perfection. The saffron broth, though, took away from the risotto. lastly, dessert was a real MISS! The fritters were burnt and the bourbon ice cream was icey and not creamy."

"I am sorry to say that the beef tenderloin steak was not the best steak that I have ever eaten. Also, the accompanyment of veggies were delicious, but the potato choice, although really a cute idea, could use some improvement - I found it rather difficult to eat them properly with a fork! I have ordered other menu items that were better."

"I work in the building and come to Lux on a fairly regular basis so know what to expect and have gotten amazing food and service in the past. This particular lunch was a client meeting and we both commented on the poor service. We were seated beside a very large table (at least 16 in the party) and this meant that our waiter was pretty pre-occupied with the large group. Apart from when he took our order, he never stopped by again. I was drinking water and was sitting there with an empty water glass that I had pushed out to the end of the table hoping to catch his eye. At one point, he was screaming by so fast I had to say "hello, hello??" when I decided I wanted to order a club soda."

"I LOVE GOING TO LUX, food is fabulous, service is fabulous, our groups, just rave about the meal, afterwards. I can honestly say, the last few times, friends, staff were envious of us going to LUX, and I hear a lot "I love going to the LUX, and "next time you go can I come with you" this is how good your restaurant is."

"I came here with my partner to celebrate Valentine's day. We started with the crab artichoke dip and that was really nice. The chips were great and I loved that they were freshly made. My boyfriend ordered a steak and said he really liked it. I ordered the LUX burger, which was really disappointing. The Kobe beef in the burger had a really funny taste and after taste. I used to live in Japan so I've had Kobe beef on a semi regular basis while I was there. And this burger was really disappointing. The fries that came with it were not the best either half were soggy! And they tasted like the oil they were fried in needed to bed changed. I didn't really end up eating it and ordered a piece of cheese cake because I was hungry; that was good."

"This was our first visit to the Lux Steakhouse. Everything was top notch, the food, the service, the ambiance, the knowledge and sense of humor of our waiter, etc. There were no negatives during our visit. And the prices were reasonable as well."

"I had the opportunity to visit the Lux for Valentines day. I took my wife and although we enjoyed our time together i particularly was not as impressed as was my wife. We were greeted and acknowledged as soon as we stepped in the door. We were shown to our table within minutes of our arrival. Our server/waiter/host welcomed us and asked if we had any questions prior to our perusing the menu. We were allowed ample time to look at the menu and the feature menu before our waiter returned to offer suggestions and info on our questions. We were a bit dismayed at the amount [ lack of ] food for the cost. either of us could have eaten what was supposed to be enough for two."

"We were really excited to go to Lux Steakhouse for our 1st time. However it was a lack lustre experience. Wine was over priced, the steak was good, but does not beat The Keg. I had the Surf & Turf steak w/bernaise sauce, lobster macaroni. The bernaise sauce was too sweet, & the lobster macaroni was tasteless & greasy & we got a whopping 2 prawns that were small atop the steak. We had a very friendly server in the dining room, but for the price of our meal he was not around enough. I would not recommend wasting your money on a less than average dining experience. You will get a better meal, a better price, & not have to pay for parking at The keg!"

"We were a party of 6. The service was good. The food was excellent. Our waitress was outstanding. The only problem we had was when the outside door opened, we got blasted with cold air. There is only one door so you get the the full blast of cold. Other than that, our experience was wonderful."

"I had the grilled ahi tuna sandwich and I don't believe the tuna was fresh - it was very, very fishy tasting and smelling. I couldn't finish it. On a side note, one of the guests requested bread with his meal and it didn't arrive until he was almost finished eating."
