First time going during happy our on the 4th. I had high hopes but it was kind of meh. Service was good, but noticed drinks sat at the bar a bit (it was not busy). Old fashioned was not good. It tasted like it had no bitters, there was no cherry, zero sweetness - I've ordered them all around town, wouldn't recommend here. My wife ordered cucumber martinis, one was good, the second was not good and sent it back. It tasted like it had no syrup, however, they took care of it right away. The Gold Rush was very good and highly recommend. The fries are very good and the ribeye tacos are also very good but $18 for two seemed a bit high. I know this is high end bar, but I feel like 3 would be better...I'd pay $20 for 4. The atmosphere is really nice and when it's busy it's probably a fun vibe. Might give it another chance, but for now I'd stick to The Republic, El Devino, or Ambra (still need to check out Bond). I'll change my review if the next time is better.

LUMA IS AMAZING!! Service was outstanding! Quick run down how they made my birthday special. I originally had a reservation at another lounge but they tried charging me $$ for bringing my own cake & balloons when it was already addressed prior is wasn’t an issue ended up not dining there. That when my friends found LUMA!! They took all 8 of us instantly no issues so welcoming. We practically got every item in the menu and it was all DELICIOUS! The pizza, pickle & charcuterie board , the ahi tuna nachos, waygu sliders,roasted peppers, shrimp tacos literally everything! Even drinks were amazing! And the music was great couldn’t complain it was Lit <3

We went about a week after their soft opening, and everything was amazing, from the service to the food and cocktails. This cocktail lounge is exactly what my boyfriend and I have been looking for a place where we can just sit back, relax, and enjoy some good music. What makes it even better is the location it’s not in the middle of downtown McAllen or too far up north. It’s the perfect spot right in between. They also had DJ Titi, which played a good set. Can’t wait to go back!
