    The service was good when our meal started and then our table was forgotten. We ordered a bottle of wine and the server who chess covering the break of another worker filled our glasses and then set the bottle down on a table far from ours. I had to ask her to retrieve the bottle and put it on our table and she acted like this was an inconvenience for her and not a standard practice when a table orders a bottle. The hotel was hosting an event and all attention seemed to be on that. Our party of four was staying at the hotel for two nights and very much felt like we were in the way of the one & only event. The loony was very loud, there was a sound system being tested and the bass was turned up very high and thumping so conversation was not possible. I would not suggest eating here and we now know that we should have gone outside the hotel for dinner.

    Our server was very friendly; however, the restaurant appeared to be very understaffed. Our server had too many tables to serve. The menu was quite limited and the food was very disappointing. The atmosphere, especially with the piano player, was very nice.

    Server did not know how to cut a fish and it took 40 minutes to bring tea. Had to ask for refills of drinks and wine. Ambiance was beautiful, peirce’s were inexpensive and the music was on point.

    Service couldn’t have been better. Everyone was so friendly and helpful. My wife’s lobster linguini was awesome and my cannelloni was just ok. It was a little dry and could have used some male sauce. The bread and desserts were awesome!

FAQs

Yes, Lumen Rome is well suited to date night: its elegant, warm dining room and live piano every evening make it a popular spot for anniversaries and special evenings.

Lumen Rome feels elegant and radiant, chandeliers, marble accents and warm, gold-hued lighting set a refined scene, while nightly live music (a pianist) adds an intimate, memorable touch.

At Lumen Rome you can dine in the elegant main dining room, relax at the lobby bar for cocktails, or enjoy the outdoor Lumen Garden (open Tue–Sat evenings in summer) for aperitivo and dinner.

Smart casual is the guide, polished but relaxed; many guests note dressing up a touch for anniversaries and special occasions.

Evenings are the highlight at Lumen Rome, live music plays every evening, and in summer the Lumen Garden opens Tue–Sat 18:00–23:00 for aperitivo or dinner; afternoons are lovely for afternoon tea.
