Price: Expensive
• Italian • Central
Booked 30 times today
Chef Frank Bonanno dug into his Sicilian heritage and east coast roots to create this authentic, rustic Italian eatery. Luca has amazing personal touches from the daily made breads and pastas to the meats and cheeses cured in house, to the charcoal drawing of Bonanno’s son (and the restaurant’s namesake) that hangs in the dining room. Luca is heartwarming and satisfying from the wood-fired pizzas to the hand-rolled pastas to the perfectly seared proteins. It’s not your ordinary pile-of-pasta-and-sauce Italian joint; it’s the real (and tasty) deal.

    We had a lovely light dinner at Rioja. The menu was exceptional with plenty of choices to please every palate as well as the opportunity to have a smaller portion on some of the menu items. My Tagliatelle was a great seafood dish with homemade pasta, a lovely presentation, and scrumptious sauce. The breads were incredible. There is also opportunity to sit outside in warmer weather. The best part was that the indoor environment was delightfully quiet. You could actually hear your dinner conversation without noise from other diners, even those close to your table.
