"Dined here for the first time last night . Knowing that the owner is family with the owner of Bin 100 in Milford ,which is by by far my local favorite , I had some time to make a trip for my girlfriend's birthday dinner. ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL.Beautiful ambiance,Best of the best server(Maria) and 11 out of 10 food deliciousness. If this place was closer by , It would be a regular for me. Do not hesitate to try this place, i am sure your socks will be rolling up and down if you appreciate fine dining."

Luce is one of the most consistent top quality restaurants you can go to, from food to service. I strongly encourage going if you haven't experienced the great hospitality. View menu

From the moment we walked in the experience was great! We were greeted with a friendly smile and seated. The service from there on was so friendly and attentive. The food was delicious and plentiful. We had the price fixe lunch plus dessert and a glass of wine.

We are regular customers of Luce. Food is great, service is terrible. We came on Saturday and in the past, we were told for party of 2, reservations wern’t needed. Lisa(the owner) was horrible and spoke down to my wife. Terribly rude, As good as the food is, the way she spoke down to my wife who isn’t white was terrible.
Carol
Luce hosted a private party of about 75 people for us on relatively short notice, and they delivered spectacularly. The service every step of the way was phenomenal, our guests raved about the food, and the exposed brick dining room with festive decorations was a lovely and cozy backdrop. Kudos to Paul and Edwin who coordinated the event. We will surely be back! Highly recommend! View menu

Luce’s was quite busy during my visit, but that shouldn’t excuse the quality of the food. The zuppa di pesce was filled with frozen calamari, and the sauce tasted generic, as if it were used in all the dishes. On a positive note, the waiter was attentive and gracious, and the atmosphere was lovely. However, the food did not meet my expectations. I plan to return when it’s less crowded.
Maureen
Came here with a party of 7. We had a wonder waitress named Maria. She was very accommodating. We had a prefixed lunch what included our choice of an appetizer, salad, and entree. Just absolutely delicious food. Homemade bread. I had the chicken limonte, mashed potatoes, spinach, bread, salad, and appetizer was fried calamari. I can’t wait to come back again. Definitely a 5 star restaurant.Dietary restrictions: For gluten free pasta I believe it was an extra $4.00.
