Luca's Italian Restaurant

Needed a spot to eat and rest. Randomly picked this spot and we were glad we did. The service was great. The food was really good. The pizza hit the spot. Overall if you are in this area stop by and pick up something to eat you won’t be disappointed!

Stopped here after a day at Buggs Island on the way home. Pizza wasn’t too bad at all! I did enjoy the sauce, it was a fresh sweet tasting sauce. The crust was also really crispy which was good. Definitely enjoyed this spot! Service was great and friendly.Food: 4/5

Pretty good standard Italian food. They were opening a little later and they were a real treat for us on the road. We all had pasta with some veggies and some red wine, all of it came out great. The service was excellent. The waitress was really friendly and attentive and never kept us waiting for anything. I really liked the environment also- super cute inside and not too bright! They really have a big menu too- so that’s nice if you’re into that type of thing. We sat in but they offered to go food. You pay your bill at the front counter after you’re done eating.

This restaurant was a pleasant surprise during our recent visit to the area. While most restaurants in the area are fast food or chain like restaurants, this one seemed to be family owned. Every one on staff was friendly and our server went above and beyond. Our server made a few mistakes, however, she was attentive and willing to help. Our main meals were all delicious. My husband had the bowtie pasta and p9nk sauce a version of ala vodka minus the vodka with smoked pink salmon and a house salad. The house salad was fresh and ranch tasted homemade. The pink sauce was lacking flavor in my opinion but my husband loved it. I would have definitely needed parmesan cheese and crushed red pepper added to that dish! The veal picatta was much different than any I've ever had, but my mother swears it was the best meal she ever had! I had Blackened chicken pasta Primavera. The sauce was alfredo with squash carrots onion mushroom and penne. We had an order of 10 wings with mild sauce and they were more than delicious... so we ordered another round. I had a Caesar salad which was nothing special but good nonetheless. There was no bread served which was odd. There were many choices to order, so we got bruschetta! It was a good not great, again my opinion. There was a balsamic reduction drizzle atop baguettes thinly sliced with chopped tomato and mozzarella mixture. It just wasn't as robust a flavor as I would imagine those fresh ingredients would provide. Everything was pretty good. There were opportunities to improve.

We stopped at Luca's for dinner while traveling with our dog. It was way too hot to leave our dog out in the car, so they kindly let us eat in the outside patio area even though outdoor seating was closed at the time. Service was really prompt. We ordered a pizza easier when wrangling a dog and a kid, and it was seriously the best pizza I've had in a long time. Our server was so friendly and attentive, coming back to refill our drinks and even bringing us to go cups for the road. I'm honestly so impressed with both the food and service and wish we lived closer so we could come back regularly. FANTASTIC experience!

What a great family restaurant. We stopped here on our way to NC and couldn’t be more pleased. The food was flavorful, fresh, and quick. Everyone around us was friendly and the waitstaff was just as amazing as other reviews mention. I wish we lived closer to make this a regular spot. Thank you for a great dinner!Food: 5/5

Makayla was an excellent server. The food was great and came out quickly. Stuffed shells were perfect.Food: 5/5

Oh. My. Gosh. Hands down, the best spaghetti and Italian food I have ever had. Ever. Everything was homemade. My husband said the same about the veal dish he got. You know it’s amazing when you barely even speak while eating except the “Ohhh’s” and “mmmm’s”!! Not only was their food freaking phenomenal, the service was a 10 of 10. I am a server/bartender myself so I tend to nit pick everything. Not here. From the greeting at the door, all the way thru.. way to go Lucas! You are doing EVERYTHING right. We will be back many, many times.

Pizza was better then okay, but less then the best I have had. What gets Lucas's 5 stars is their servers and their attitude and energy. They need to clean the place up and add upgrades. They have two bars and one of them has trash around it and literally a trash can sitting on top of it. Again, great service helped this place get 5 stars versus 2. I hope the owners pay attention to upgrading the decor and the batbrooms.

So delicious. Best authentic Italian place I've ever eaten at. Recommend over anything else. The Garlic Knots were like biting into a cloud. They were soft and just OMG a must have. The Chicken Roll and Chicken Alfredo was soooooo good. We will definitely be going back.
