The menu linked in Google Maps is helpful. It may be a little more current than the restaurant website. You can sort by lunch/dinner/vegetarian/gluten-free. Some dishes have pictures. This is Italian food (not Italo-American) at its simple best. I came late on a Tuesday night and was greeted warmly. There seemed to be a mix of tourists and locals (one business group of seven.) The restroom was scrupulously clean, always a sign that the owner cares about details. My server, Hassan, was very knowledgeable about the wine and the foods. He helped me choose both. The decor seems to be from the 1990's. It's functional but does not add to the experience. The front door is not wheelchair accessible, and I was seated on a raised section. The alcohol license is beer and wine only, with a broad selec

We ordered a few trays of food for my sister’s engagement party this weekend and could not have been happier with our experience. Lucia and Gabriella were a delight to work with. They were very accommodating with some dairy free options for our guests with dietary restrictions. And the food was so good! I loved the pasta marinara and can’t wait to visit their restaurant in person to try more!

This review is long overdue! We discovered this restaurant last month while visiting town for Christmas, and it quickly became a highlight of our trip. The atmosphere was charming, and the service was fast, attentive, and professional. We both ordered the ravioli bolognese, which was absolutely delicious, and the wine list was extensive with plenty of great options. The staff truly made the experience exceptional. Unbeknownst to me, my boyfriend proposed during our visit, and the staff went above and beyond to help make the moment unforgettable. They captured photos and video, and the owner even brought over champagne to celebrate. An incredible experience from start to finish. We can’t wait to return!

Absolutely fantastic Italian restaurant. You can tell the food is made with love! It seemed like the whole family worked in the restaurant, which is a nice twist from some of the other Italian restaurants in the area owned by larger firms. They also have a wide range of food options fit for vegetarians or other diet restricted individuals. Will absolutely be back 🤩 P.S, amazing wine selection 🍷

★★★★★ 5.0 Jocelyn DeMaio · May 2025

We had a fabulous meal at Lucia's! The carbonara and beef Bolognese were both absolutely delicious - rich, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. We started by splitting a salad that was perfectly dressed and so fresh. The garlic broccoli was another standout. It was beautifully seasoned and a great complement to our meal. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and the service was excellent. We’ll definitely be back!
