    We had my birthday celebration at Luca this year and we can't wait to go back! It's such a warm, charming spot for dinner. The service was stellar, and the meal was perfect. If you're looking for a new place to start a dining tradition, Luca is it!

    Beautiful dinner. Food was very good. Bread was delicious. Drinks great. My only complaint would be was the noise. So loud it was comical. I would go back no doubt. Menu has a lot to offer.

    Food was delicious. We were celebrating birthdays and enjoyed a wonderful birthday tiramisu desert, plus they took a photo and provided each birthday couple with a copy in a holder to remember the evening. Only downside was we sat in outer enclosed patio area, which was fairly dimly lit and it got very noisy by the end of meal.

    I was disappointed that you have first come first serve for window table when I made reservations. It was my daughters birthday and first time at Lucas. That was not what I had expected. Not what I have experienced at other restaurants. Amber was lovely. Food was very good. A bit noisy but not intolerable.

    The food is always outstanding here. Waitress was very attentive, polite, and helpful. The lighting was a bit dim and made it hard to read menus or see food (34yr old w 20/20 vision). Overall, though, this is my favorite restaurant because the food is always outstanding and I love the wine selection.

    A special occasion spot. We were there for our anniversary. They took a pic and gave it to us in a card, and complimentary tiramisu for dessert. Attentive but non-intrusive service. Great views of downtown from the main room. Unfortunately, we were seated next to a lively party of ten, so the atmosphere was pretty noisy. Was not an issue on our last visit, though. Food was quite good.

    Overall, a great restaurant! Food is always excellent, and the atmosphere is great. We caught a server on a bad day which hurt the experience somewhat. But having been there 6 or 7 times, that was the first time we had a less than average server. I am writing that off to believing she just had a bad day and we happened to get a bit of fallout.

    This was our second visit after an excellent dining experience months earlier, this meal being a bit of a letdown after the bar had been set so high. We were seated in the 'extension' -- the ambiance wasn't nearly as nice, and the temperature swung wildly from steamy to almost chilly. Service was attentive and professional, though not overly warm. Beet salad and artichoke apps were fantastic. Grouper special was nicely prepared and flavorful, though the broccoli and potato sides were pretty pedestrian. The orchiette was somewhat disappointing -- a generous serving, but lacked flavor and was generally under-seasoned. We only finished about half of the plate and the waitress said that she'd box the rest, but then she never brought us the remaining portion to take (we were ready to leave and didn't want to bother asking about it). We'll likely come back at some point, but if/when we do, we'll ask to eat in the main dining room.

    I was disappointed that we were sat in the outdoor space, with hardly no lighting at all when the entire indoor space was open (with the exception of a few bar patrons). The service was ok and the food was good. We were there for a special occasion and one of the draws to this resturant was the atmosphere, sadly we were jot absent enjoy it. Just a poorly lit plastic area in a parking lot.

    The food and service were excellent! When making the reservation, I indicated that it was a birthday celebration. They surprised my husband with a piece of Tiramisu and 4 forks! It was delicious! They also took a picture of our table and gave my husband a souvenir birthday card! The only disappointment was that we arrived early, just before 5 o'clock to take advantage of Happy Hour. However, since it was only held at the bar, less than 10 people got to partake! We were not allowed to purchase a drink and take it to our table. I think this is misleading on the website - it does indicate that it's only at the bar, but they should also indicate there is very limited seating. Many patrons were disappointed! I think we were about 25th in line. Fortunately, they seated us early at our table. We had a window seat and got a great view of the city at sunset. Didn't see the sunset directly, but saw colors. Very pretty!

    We had an amazing experience! The food was amazing, great ambiance, and top notch service. Our server was amazing, and took my nut allergy very seriously. He checked on our orders, and was able to suggest appetizer and dessert alterations. (We cannot recall but his 34th birthday is in a few weeks - management if you see this, give him an extra tip!). We will return for sure!

    The overall service at Luca was rather mediocre. Starting with the person at the front desk who was irritated when we asked to be seated at our assigned time even though half of our party hadn’t arrived. He reluctantly seated us and our other guests arrived shortly thereafter. The wait staff was knowledgeable and competent but there was no warmth. Very transactional in nature. I won’t likely return soon

    Cool location and views. Kind of clunky main entrance - narrow aisle and dodging servers. Bread and food were delicious. Food took a bit longer due to large wedding party but Sean was an excellent server. A bit pricey - I would ask for a table away from the main aisle next time
