“ I was impressed by the cozy atmosphere of the restaurant, which drew me in. We chose to order fried calamari and two pasta dishes, and I must say, the meals exceeded our expectations. They were so delicious that I’m already looking forward to our next visit! :) ”
“ I went there for Valentine's Day and it was perfect! The food was amazing! It’s an Italian restaurant, but honestly, it was nothing like the others I’ve been to. Great flavor, cooked to perfection. It’s a small spot, so they do have a time limit, but the food comes out quickly and the service was top-notch. I would definitely recommend it to everyone! ”
“ We've been to Lucia a couple of times and are so glad it is in our neighbourhood! I hope they are able to survive the pandemic because it was an amazing little spot before Covid and we dined on the patio in July when we were finally able to start dining again and it was amazing then as well. We are INCREDIBLY picky about food and everything we've had at Lucia has been fantastic. Especially the beautiful dish I had in July (homemade tortelli in a cream sauce which I usually shy away from because I'm lactose intolerant. Totally worth it!!!) The service has been great as well. I highly recommend Lucia! On a side note: I feel it's unfair to judge our restaurants during this pandemic as harshly as we would under normal circumstances especially if you are ordering takeout. Food of this caliber is never going to be as good once you get it home. Please be kind during these insane times. Our restaurants have been through a lot and are doing the best they can and our city would not be what it is without them. ”
“ Table of 5 went for dinner yesterday and we sat on the patio. They’ve got a fire pit or oven of some sort outside which also keeps the patio warm in the winter. The inside and outside is cozy & peaceful. Their Italian menu offered a unique variety of foods along with a wine menu. We were recommended by a friend crash and was extremely thankful for the experience. I haven’t eaten at a restaurant like this and enjoyed every dish. For starters, their bread they get from a bakery down the street was off the charts. Wine recommendation went great with our food. I was also told that they change their menu seasonally which is exciting. Our server Alex was amazing! Friendly and knowledgeable, I especially loved how easy he was to ask for anything. I feel that some servers are not only present and available for us to seek assistance so 5 star to Alex! We will be coming back again, hopefully in the winter on the patio! Can’t wait to try their new menu. ”
“ This was our first time dining at Lucia. My husband and I were seated at their lovely outdoor heated patio. The food was INCREDIBLE. The portions were perfect. We enjoyed every single bite. The cocktails were also such a delight! Our server Emily is such a sweet soul. You have got try this gem of a place out! You will be so happy you did. Thanks Lucia! We can’t wait to come back. ”
“ Ambiance is great. Fresh and contemporary but still cozy. The food is spectacular. We have had 2 fantastic meals and can’t wait to come back. You can see the attention to detail in the food. Service was excellent. ”
“ Delightful Dining Experience at Lucia’s Italian Wow, wow, oh wow! My experience at Lucia's Italian was truly delightful. The food here is exceptional, with flavors that tantalize the taste buds and presentations that are a feast for the eyes. I had the pleasure of trying five different dishes along with some sides, and each one was a culinary masterpiece. However, I must admit that the steak I ordered fell short of expectations. It wasn't cooked as a steak should be, and the texture was disappointingly chewy. Thankfully, the other dishes more than made up for it, particularly the shrimp spaghetti, which was absolutely divine, and the ricotta, which was heavenly. The ambience at Lucia's Italian is simply enchanting, making it the perfect spot for a romantic date or any special occasion. The staff here are incredibly friendly and attentive, adding to the overall warmth and welcoming atmosphere of the restaurant. There's a beautiful energy and vibe that permeates the space, making it a highly recommended dining destination—just steer clear of the steak! ”
