LUCA

“I was Lancaster for a quick couple of days and stopped by this gem on a whim. I ordered the tagliatelle bolognese and loved it. The Negroni was mid but I’m definitely coming back next time I visit.”

“My experience at LUCA was absolutely fantastic. The atmosphere is super cozy, but what truly made the afternoon shine was the service, which was simply excellent from start to finish. The food was delicious; you can really tell the quality and freshness of their authentic wood-fired Italian dishes. I especially want to highlight the friendliness of our waitress—her service was exceptional and every single one of her menu recommendations was spot on. She nailed everything! Definitely a place we will be returning to.”

“WOW - I cannot say enough good things about this place. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and we got to sit in front of the kitchen and watch as the chefs worked tirelessly. They have it down to a science, and the head chef balanced professional authority with supportive and encouraging leadership. It was nice to know our food was being prepared by such a great team. Everything we ate was perfectly balanced in seasoning, texture and delicious complexity. The serving staff were knowledgeable and friendly. The cocktails were incredible. 100% recommend!!”

“A great restaurant for a special occasion - an elevated food experience, authentic Italian feel, and very friendly, knowledgeable service. Our drinks, meals, and dessert (tiramisu) were all outstanding. Our only disappointment was how long our food took to arrive at our table (45+ minutes); we were ravenous!”

“What a great vibrant place to go to for great food, friendly staff and a very hip, swank atmosphere. You’ll see everything from formal wear to casual blue jeans. Prices are comparable to other high end restaurants so it’s worth a visit if you’re in the mood to have some fantastic food and fun times with friends. It’s not a place for an intimate first date due to it being in probably an old warehouse so you get a lot of echoing from other patrons so it can get pretty loud. Drinks are plentiful & flavorful. They even make their own wine. The Apples to Apples is a seasonal drink & of course tastes like ummm apples. Very tasty & puts you in the holiday spirit. Small plates I went with the crispy potatoes which were phenomenal and the rosemary makes these potatoes sing. We also tried the smoked squash which was absolutely delicious. You can really taste the smoke which compliments the squash perfectly. For my main, I picked the gnocchi with mushrooms. The only thing I didn’t enjoy about the dish was that it ended. I could have easily ate another plate of these perfectly prepared gnocchi and the brown sauce left me wanting to lick my plate clean (no I did not lick my plate, but I definitely wanted to). Staff are super friendly & helped us select just the right meal & drink. Would highly recommend Luca to anyone looking to have a great time with some friends & have some absolutely amazing and delicious food & drinks while doing it.”
