Very limited menu and food was very salty and average. Ordered average sea bream which was very salty and only part eaten, mentioned to waitress, but she didn’t do anything about it. Sirloin steak was literally that on the plate. Wouldn’t go back

Cafe Luca brings the Mediterranean to cold November days with a range of quality food dishes and excellent drinks choice. Went for my girlfriend’s birthday and the staff, the atmosphere as well as the food were great. Highly recommend the Chicken Shawarma with a side of chunky chips. Will be back again.

Dining outside on Devonshire Row, cosy, intimate and warm (with heater on). We shared food from the grill, aubergine and a chicken shawarma plus some chunky chips. Food arrived promptly and piping hot. Flavours were sublime. Service on point and charming. The espresso was a perfect ending to a fabulous meal. Also, I'm a powerchair user and it worked well for me.
