Dear Richmond,This little restaurant is our love letter to food. It's our happy little place, where we get to live the joy of feeding people everyday. We all grew up in spaces that equated food with love, just like this place. Everything we have done here is deliberate, from the art on the walls to the produce we use. We've made a point of sourcing ingredients from some of the best suppliers in the state, making sure that our menu reflects what's in season. For us, this place is about experience: we try our best to make you feel both at home and 'out for something special'. Every plate that comes back wiped clean by someone who just couldn't get enough is a 'the hard work is worth it' moment for us. Matty & Tee From Love Letter, with love x

A really beautiful experience in every way. Beautiful service, tables not too close together, ambience just perfect, food was scrumptious, traditional, not over the top, not too try hard, just perfect. We had such a lovely Christmas lunch and for the price even better! Love to pay our money to privately owned family business too. Well done Il Duca, we will be back sooner than later.
