   Unfortunately not much choice on the menu. We ordered the ravioli as a main course and only received 8 pieces. We left after the main course and ate elsewhere.

   Stunning old Melbourne architecture restored and turned into an intimate setting with food focused on modern Italian. Staff attentive, this restaurant is located in the new Hilton Hotel on Bourke and Little Queen St. A must is a cocktail at Douglas’ Bar at the front!!

   We had dinner with my parents for new year eve, and we had a great time. The food was really good and met perfectly our expectations. We had an excellent waitress, she did an amazing job considering that my parents do not understand English. We would strongly recommend this place to anyone and would definitely love to come back!! Thank you Luci for a great dinner.

   Christmas lunch. Unfortunately too many inexperienced wait staff and a kitchen that entirely lost control of timing, despite the set menu and scheduled bookings.

   The food was very disappointing. Last year the food was great so we invited friends to join us. The food was sub standard. The tortellini was under cooked. The mains/lamb/seafood was over cooked and felt had been prepared well in advance. Last year everything worked. This year it was a disaster. The staff tried hard but struggled under the pressure.. Unfortunately we will not be back. I think the money we paid would have been okay for a meal that you promised but Luci did not deliver. Very disappointed.

   This place is a gem and brings back real quality food and service in Melbourne. A leaf some top end of town restaurants need to look at. Eg: Grill Americano

    Our waiter delivered such amazing service. The set menu was a great option for our group, great value for money for a special Christmas lunch. Only thing is when it came to pay a split bill, there was a little issue and too longer than expected. However the overall experience was wonderful. I would highly recommend to friends, family and colleagues come and enjoy the Luci experience. Will definitely be coming back!!

    The food was delicious and the wait staff were not fine dining savvy ...need more training, polish or experience for the type if restaurant it is. Hate to think how they would cope with full house as there would have only been 20 people max for lunch service. Served our main before we had finished our entree. Left the mains on the table and had to come back to clear the entree plates. Had to ask for drinks, salt and pepper and serving fork for the salad. I doubt I would return.

    Delightful service - great team. Pricing and quantity not quite right, to the degree that we will probably not return. $48 for v small portion of lamb - tasted great but half of what I'd expect. The adorning jus also delicious but the plate is otherwise quite empty requiring a side order - which was great and plentiful! Bruschetta - v small, delicious.

    The food was outstanding and the dining space is one of the best in Melbourne. It is a stunning Art Deco room that has been beautifully restored. The service from Charlotte was very welcoming and professional. I thought the wine list was very thoughtful and reasonably priced. Can’t recommend Luci more.

    Large iconic hall space ideal for biz dinners. Not an intimate setting. Chefs selection in June 2022 was incredible - shout to the Pork Belly & Prawn Linguini (spice!). Save the Focacci, you'll be dipping it thorughout all of your dishes :)

    First time at Luci and the food + plating, venue, service and ambience were exceptional. Highly recommend the tuna tartare, lobster and scallop fregola, Macedon duck breast, and semifredo. The oysters were not as fresh, but I can excuse it for the whole experience. Would definitely come again and recommend to friends, family, anyone and everyone!
