At Luka’s, the occasional live music feels like cooking while watching TV—it can fade into the background, or be the main event, depending on how you focus your ears. Open mic nights are the norm, featuring anyone from some guy with a banjo to Mary Lambert. Crowds are calm, cocktails are fun (some of which may or may not include a mini bottle of Malört), and the Belltown location is an ideal launchpad for the rest of the night’s shenanigans.
