About the restaurant

In Italy, Lucca is a region known for beauty and old world charm. In Canton, Lucca bottles that same old world charm, small restaurant community and brings it to you. Using only fresh ingredients, quality service and a dedication to authenticity, Lucca serves �la dolce vita� or �the good life.� Similar to the Tuscan restaurants that inspire Lucca, locally sourced ingredients go into all of the dishes. Along with a full bar, sit down to try the hand made pasta, Prime steak, seafood overnighted from Hawaii or the local double boned pork chop. Be sure to ask your server about the dessert of the day which is always a gourmet treat.

Our meal was absolutely delicious. We had a filet which was prepared perfectly and halibut which was excellent. The service was excellent. You can carry on a conversation and hear one another. We will be back.

Another outstanding dining experience at Pier W. The lobster bisque, while always good here, was the best yet and my husband enjoyed the raw oysters before we each had the filet for dinner…the sauce was amazing. Our server was sweet and very attentive. Will continue to frequent our favorite restaurant in Cleveland.

Steaks were delicious. I don’t love the seafood but I don’t really like seafood as it is so I can’t hold it against them. Service was awesome.

Our go to for personal holidays. We need to be strictly gluten-free. With the exception of no GF bread option, they take really good care of us. We always do the chef's tasting with wine paring- pricy but worth it
