    Our server, Mike, made certain we had an exceptional experience. His knowledge of the special menu items, alone, was impeccable. His suggestions were on point with what the table wanted. The food was amazing (duck breast tasted like a steak -wow!). The ambience was decked out in a winter wonderland theme for the Christmas holiday to make our experience especially enjoyable. I had guests from NY who were pleasantly surprised at what Plymouth had to offer, and The Ledger gave a great impression/representation of the town. This restaurant will be around for a very long time.

    We were pleasantly surprised by the food at Lumen. We’d heard the restaurant was more about location than food so my expectations were low. However, everything we ate was delicious! Do not skip the cookie butter banana pie!

    We tried 6 dishes plus dessert (pavlova) and everything tasted great. The service was also great, never had to ask for a water refill, very attentive. The music was a little loud, but not terrible. Will definitely go back!
