Join us for a night you won't soon forget. You are invited to experience our take on the Italian food traditions we have studied, celebrated and fallen in love with over the last two decades. We love to eat pasta & drink wine and would love for you to join us.
“We’ve dined here multiple times over the years and it never disappoints. The mocktails are delicious and not too sweet. The marinated olives are a MUST. I crave them all the time and even order a second serving to take home when we dine in. You can’t go wrong with any of the pasta dishes either, as they rotate some dishes seasonally. The homemade focaccia is always warm and salty and pillowy. Their James Beard recognition is well-deserved!”
“I have been to Ca’Lucchenzo twice now, which means that I have had the chance to see how their menu changes from week to week, and sometimes day to day. The housemade pasta, the creativity, and the passion for food come through clearly in the menu and the presentation. Their wine selection is great, as well. This is one of my favorite Italian restaurants!”
“I was so excited to try this place when I heard they had homemade pasta with a rotating menu so that there's always something new to try. First off, the focaccia was hands down the best bread I've ever had in my life. It was so soft with the perfect amount of seasoning/salt with olive oil for dipping. I had never had squash blossoms before and I thought they were light and flavorful. The homemade pasta dishes were both so good. Our server helped us pick out our dishes based on our flavor preferences and wine choice. I can't wait to come back!”
“This place is a true neighborhood gem. The cocktails are excellent—creative, well-balanced, and clearly crafted with care. The wine list really stands out, featuring Italian imports that are handpicked by the owners, which adds a thoughtful and authentic touch. You can feel the passion behind the restaurant with the husband in the kitchen as the chef and the wife running the front as manager and hostess—it shows in every detail. The rotating menu keeps things exciting, especially the top-notch pasta dishes, which are consistently outstanding. On top of all that, the staff is incredibly friendly and personable, making you feel genuinely welcome from start to finish. A must-visit spot that keeps you coming back.”
“I went there with my husband and our month old daughter. We walked in without a reservation. They kindly accommodated our baby in her car seat. Our server, Lynn, was very sweet! Since it was my husband’s birthday we wanted to go all out and she paced the dishes perfectly. She provided some of the best service I’ve ever experienced. The food was everything we hoped it would be! All dishes were beautifully put together, creative, and delicious. I highly recommend Ca’Lucchenzo if you are looking for a date night spot as the ambience is dim and romantic. We will definitely be back.”
