I stopped by LUXE Steakhouse near Eastport on Thursday, November 5, during its invitation-only soft opening at Woodlands Golf Club. The staff gave me a warm welcome and also let me photograph the menus and the outdoor seating area. In addition, owner Jack Suleiman greeted me, welcomed me to return and said he looks forward to my review.
If you’re thinking about stopping in after a round at Woodlands, the staff told me they’re welcoming golfers for lunch and drinks during the day. They said you will need a reservation starting at 4 p.m.

Patio and Dining Room at LUXE Steakhouse near Eastport
Outside, striped umbrellas shaded the tables, while string lights hung overhead. The outdoor bar windows stayed closed when I stopped by Thursday. On my previous visit, however, they were open and I could see the liquor bottles behind the bar.
I liked the pendant lights when I first saw them during construction. It was nice to see the room with the tables finally set beneath them, with white tablecloths and wine glasses. The staff asked me to hold off on taking photos inside, so the picture below is from my earlier visit while work was still underway. LUXE also posted a sneak peek of a dining room table on Facebook on October 29.
