We are happy to announce that LUC is the first restaurant to partner with our neighbor Harbour Pointe Coffeehouse for the launch of Parent Date Night on Monday, May 13th from 6:30-8:30pm!
Parent Date Night is a new event on Monday nights that gives parents the chance to bring their children to Harbour Pointe Coffeehouse from 6:30-8:30pm, have a kid free dinner at LUC, and leave parents rest assured that their kids are well taken care of and nearby.
Zander Natallanni is the owner of Harbour Pointe Coffeehouse and has been a long time babysitter for kids of all ages. He is also a licensed CNA and has worked with children with autism. Natallani is also enlisting help from local nannies to ensure Parent Date Night is a success.
The coffee shop will close to the public at 6:30 when the kids arrive. The cost for one child is $25, and an additional $5 for each sibling within one family.

Dear Friends of Rover’s:
After 25 years, Rover’s chapter is coming to an end in April.
Kathy and I are very grateful for all of you who have supported and shared with us some of your most precious moments over the years. Words are hard to find to thank all of you for believing in our vision and for your constant appreciation of our craft, so we will start with a big “Merci”!
Looking back at Rover’s ascent in the hospitality and culinary world over the years, it is still unbelievable, and even startling.
We have an enormous amount of gratitude for all the people who have participated in building this legacy, especially the customers, the employees and our purveyors.
We are turning over a new leaf, and we are moving onto exciting projects. We will keep you informed as things develop.
Sincerely Yours,
Thierry & Kathy Rautureau
Rover’s / LUC
PS: To correct some misinformation, here is a little clarification for all:
Rover’s is not moving; it is ending a 25 years legacy.
We are not putting Rover’s up for sale; we are turning the lights off.
LUC is not affected by these changes.
Yes, we are working on a new project we cannot talk about at this moment, but stay tuned with The Chef In the Hat….
Rover’s will be closed Monday, December 24 and Tuesday, December 25.
We will also be closed Tuesday, January 1, Wednesday, January 2, & Thursday, January 3.
LUC will also be closed Monday, December 24 and Tuesday, December 25.
We will also be closed Tuesday, January 1.
Rover’s & LUC will both closed Sunday, January 6.
Happy Holidays!
