I've been wanting to try the wagu beef in a long time. 140$ for a stake and huge disappointment! It was so oily, I couldn't eat much of it. My husband had salmon and was really good, the sides were delicious, the peanut butter pie amazing! The series was great, the location and restaurant itself, beautiful! If I ever go back I will try anything but the expensive and oily wagu beef.I saw people eating spaghetti, lobster,Pasta, all looked really good.

The service was excellent. We are there for my Mom’s birthday and everyone knew about it. The cocktails were great! My truffle risotto needed more flavor. They brought out a small treat for my mom at the end, very nice!

Only negative was that the music was way too loud . Maybe a softer background music would be nice . It’s already loud with the amount of people in the building . Overall we had a great dining experience.

Always a great meal at Lucia's. Most times I pick one of the specials, and this time it was crab mac and cheese, which was delicious and decadent. Almost as much crab as pasta! Our server Thomas was wonderful and just attentive enough.

We enjoyed the delicious food, wine, and the service was excellent in a beautifully decorated dining room. The overall ambience overlooking the lake transported us to a California style dining experience. The only thing I might mention is as much as we enjoyed the music, the same songs and beat were repetitive and began to bother us. Change up the songs and it would be absolutely perfect!

After years of hearing how amazing this restaurant is, we finally tried it. I made reservations a month and a half in advance for our 20 year anniversary. Lucia’s did not disappoint. We Ordered Bang Bang Shrimp and the bread plate for appetizers which were both delicious. The sauce on the shrimp was so flavorful; not just an average Buffalo sauce. Somehow the breading on the shrimp kept its crunch even with the sauce. My husband ordered the Bolognese with a hot banana pepper and he loved it. I ordered the strip steak medium rare and I have to say it was seasoned a cooked to perfection. The mashed potatoes and green beans were not just ordinary sides, they were outstanding! We really didn’t need to, but splurged and split the Deep Fried Cookie Dough sundae. Highly recommend!

Perfect evening!! We waited months for this reservation and Lucia’s didn’t disappoint. John made the evening spectacular with knowledgeable suggestions and exceptional service. The halibut was perfect and the tomahawk steak was cooked perfectly and very flavorful. We will definitely be back and will be sure to ask for John again!

Food and service was great. Ordered a lobster tail as a supplement to main dish, and the tail came out 10 minutes after my main entrée. Waitress was apologetic and comped dessert, just expected to arrive together. Ambiance and noise was not what I was expecting at all, maybe I should have read, but it was so noisy with tables screaming at each other, that I could not have a normal conversation with my wife (2 ft away from me). Again expecting this would have been a different story, but going in expecting a calm dining experience, definately a shocker.

Disappointed in the "jumbo" scallop I ordered extra with my meal. For $8 it was not at all what is advertised. It was the same as the scallops in the meal my friend had. Definitely won't order it again.

This is not my first dining experience at Lucia's. We have had wonderful previous dinners here. On this night, however, which was my birthday, we were seated promptly, and ordered appetizers and dinner. The appetizers came out in a timely manner, but our dinner did not come to the table until nearly 45 minutes later, and only after we asked the wait staff to check on our food. The table next to us was seated after us, and ate their meal completely while we were still waiting for our entrees. Same waitress. She did comp us the appetizer and was very apologetic, but the long wait kind of ruined the meal for all of us. Hopefully our next dinner at Lucia's will be a more pleasant experience.

I would recommend this restaurant however if you are looking for a romantic evening out then this is definitely not your place. I felt that the server was pushy and tried to mislead us on the Wague beef, he claimed that they were the only restaurant in the area that has this item and that they use it as a “lost leader” and that they really don’t make any money on it. I just find that this was unbelievable and unnecessary, this did not enhance our dining experience whatsoever. Overall the meal was good but next time We will go elsewhere for a romantic dinner date.

Nice setting, beautiful building. Plenty off parking. Lots of room in the dining area. A bit noisy but the place was full of Friday night diners. Plenty of staff to handle all your needs. Seated immediately with a reservation. Service for drinks and order taking was prompt. First coarse and salad quickly served, however the main entre took a bit to long to get top the table. Food was expertly prepared !!! An enjoyable restaurant !!!

Had a wonderful time and the food is always absolutely delicious but I think the prices are really too high. It takes a few weeks to even get a reservation at your restaurant which is great for you however there are a lot of places that are running specials where the prices are much lower and the food is delicious. I really think you should consider lowering some of the prices on your special menus so that people can afford to go there more often. I know you have bills but I’m sure that you’re generating a lot of income with the amount of reservations that you have booked each that your open.
