Loved our dining experience here. Been here a couple of times and has never disappointed. Valet parking, friendly hostess, nice place for special occasions. The food is outstanding from start to finish. Our server was very knowledgeable and attentive. Have an extensive wine list and many nonalcoholic options available. I really enjoyed the meatballs, the winter salad, the beef tenderloin and the brown butter crème brûlée. My date enjoyed the calamari, the beet salad and the radiatore with duck confit. Overall, an excellent meal and would highly recommend this restaurant-one of the Burgh’s finest.

I met a friend for dinner on a Thursday night and we had a great time catching up. The food is delicious, the service prompt, warm, and friendly, and the atmosphere cozy. Parking can be somewhat of a bear, but Lucca's is worth that relatively small inconvenience.
