   Only complaint was they need to spray the outside patio. Left with many bites-it was a prime evening for the small critters; hot & humid. A great restaurant with a nice patio & entertainment. Will be back!

   The place was hoppin'. It was packed. Our server & others were attentive while acknowledging the challenge to provide service when multi-tasking to the max. The calamari was quite good. The spicy pasta was great. The polenta was very creamy, probably due to heaps of butter. Bottom line: We went, we explored, we'd go back.

    Delightful dinner on the patio. Service and food were outstanding. The evening ended with espresso martinis and fresh peach sorbet. The added bonus was live entertainment on the patio.

    It’s the second time within a week. Our girls night out was fantastic and everyone enjoyed their meals! The fish was a hit again, and we enjoyed the beet salad that will be loved by even those who aren’t a fan of beets. The chef has created a menu with so many quality items, and I’ll continue going and trying new things. It’s a real find!

    It was our first visit and we were incredibly impressed. The outdoor areas gorgeous, and the moment you walk in you feel like you’re in a cool, yet comfortable spot. The super long bar, and lighting create a very fun and welcoming vibe. The appetizers including the carpaccio, the shrimp dejonge, and the tuna were fantastic. The entrees were equally impressive! The branzino, and the veal were wonderful. We also ordered a table side pasta dish that is not to be missed. This restaurant will most certainly be one we visit again and again.

    We sat on the lovely patio with our group. We enjoyed everything we ordered! The pasta dishes, the veal, the steak and salads were all delicious and fresh tasting. Our server was so professional -didn’t hurry us to order which allowed us to settle in and enjoy our time socializing with our friends. The only thing I didn’t care for was their cocktail which tasted like juice without the alcohol. The server surprised us with shots of homemade Limoncello in the house which was such a pleasant surprise and ending to our fabulous evening!

    I want clarify that our servers did an exceptional job. We had two people help us—a middle aged woman (who had surgery on her shoulder before) and a guy named Sebastian. They were very helpful despite their poor work conditions. For instance, the lady helped my friend with a torn ACL get accommodations for her legs. However, I do have a problem with how issues were addressed. Yes were running late but the owner(you) brushed aside our concerns in a rude tone. I, in particular, was confused about something specifically and never got clarification about it. I did not appreciate being treated as such especially since it was my birthday. I was very excited to celebrate here, but was greatly disappointed by the rude owner and slow service. I also didn’t appreciate that the workers that expressed to me that they weren’t being treated well also. That’s very unfair to them. Overall, I will not be back here. You have lost customers.

    We had a reservation and were seated 35 minutes after that time. The food was just “alright.” Guide frankly, we won’t be running back.

    This was a very special dinner for a dear friend who was in for a few days from Florida. We came from the airport and we were both thrilled with the terrific food and wonderful service. She had a beautiful rosotto.. after enjoying the shrimp scampi appetizer. I had the seafood pesçe. It was outstanding. The server was truly awesome and this added to the lovely evening.

    First time at Lucca's Osteria we enjoyed it immensely. We dined Alfresco on a beautiful Thursday evening. It was a surprise to hear live entertainment. The male and female vocalists were sensational with their backup musicians. What an unexpected treat. The service was impeccable, but a little leisurely. Jose and his partner were very personable and gracious. I had the brown butter sage ravioli which was delicious. My friend had the homemade fettucini which was finished at tableside in a humongous cheese wheel lit on fire and tossed. It was a pretty spectacular presentation. We shared the decadent savory homemade lava cake with gelato. It was a delightful evening.

    Lucca's Osteria is my new favorite local spot. Have visited several times and thoroughly enjoyed every visit. Dining on the outdoor patio with entertainment makes one feel as if you are in the city while staying in the neighborhood. Food is excellent, service spot on. The burrata is delicious. Lots of fresh delicious options. Owner Steve and Chef Claudio go out of their way to make you feel welcome and valued. A great local find.
