"Definitely one of our favorite restaurants in the area!! We love Luca’s and have taken many friends there and now they request we go back when we see them! Staff is very professional and friendly. To start the meal they bring over a ceramic box filled with warm, small triangles of foccacia with a filling between the layers. The type varies and is always my absolute favorite! You also get round delicious rolls, also warm. It is served with a sundried tomato pesto and a flavored olive oil. Yum! Too many restaurants serve cold bread. Always a pet peeve of mine!Two of us started with the polenta app and the other two had the degree Bruschetta! Delicious! The polenta was four nice size squares of polenta with a peach agridulce, which has a sweet and sour note, topped with hazelnuts and ricotta salata. The bruschetta is like a nice size pizza covered in heirloom cherry tomatoes! My friend thought the cheese that was melted under the tomatoes was the best she has had! She said it was so much better than what she has had on pizzas. The brick oven crust also adds another dimension of flavor and texture!For entrees one had veal saltimbocca, which he loves and gets almost every time he goes, two had pasta dishes which are always excellent because they make all their own pasta and I had an amazing special! It was a lobster tail split and served over a homemade papparadelle pasta with corn and peas in a truffle cream sauce! OMG was that delicious! For dessert we had the passion fruit sorbet and my friends the tiramisu. Also excellent. Matt was our server and he was very attentive ! All was wonderful and I can’t wait to go back!!"

"We have eaten here several times and loved every meal so when it came time to have our daughter’s 1st communion we thought this would be a good spot. Before I begin I want to give a shout out to the people who made this party spectacular Nicole, Gaby and the rest of the waitstaff. The manager Nicole who helped us with planning the party and going thru the menu was great, she always responded very quickly to any questions or changes we wanted very quickly, she was a pleasure to work with. Gaby our server was amazing so attentive to all of our guests needs. We had several guest with allergies and she made sure those guests got their own special portion of things served with any of their allergens.The atmosphere in the dinning area with the open kitchen was perfect for a private party. Now let’s get to the food, it’s family style tapas with an italian flair. My wife had concerns that her Italian family coming over from the old country wouldnt be impressed and wanted to go to a more traditional Italian restaurant. Well when the food came out she couldnt be more wrong. For a party the food is off of the regular menu and depending on what catering menu you decide on the choices change (whatever menu you decide on you each item or course is 1 dish for 4 people). We went with the “Venetian” from the catering menu and was concerned maybe it wouldn't be enough food, but there was so much food at the end everyone got to go boxes. The food comes out in waves over 3 hours which makes it great for socializing as you don’t have to be seated the whole time. Halfway through the food all our guests were stuffed and everyone kept saying how amazing the food was and how they couldnt wait to come back for dinner.We couldnt be more happy and this will definitely be our spot for future parties."
