Lucia

Italian & Romance Go Hand in Hand

What makes it fun

Lucia is the spot for a date night that feels like a love letter to Italian cuisine and cozy charm. It’s intimate, inventive, and made for moments worth savoring. Chef David Uygur crafts a seasonal menu full of love including house cured salumi, handmade pastas, bold ragus, and desserts that finish things off like a sweet kiss. Favorites have included ramp & ricotta tortellini, Texas wagyu culotte, and cavatelli with ‘nduja and manila clams. The menu changes frequently, but is always exceptional. Lucia’s dining room is cozy (with just 9 indoor tables), which means it’s easy to feel like you’ve got the whole place to yourselves. Low lights, warm décor, and attentive service add up to an atmosphere that's practically magic.

Believe the hype! There is a reason this place is hard to get in to! The service A+ the wine A+ and the food too good to put a grade on. You feel as if you are in an Italian kitchen having dinner w the family. Do whatever it takes to eat here. Incredible indeed

We had very high expectations and we were not disappointed but we were not wowed either.
There were 3 of us, after we placed our order, our waiter told us we should definitely order at least 2 or 3 more dishes. We ended up doing so and it was too much food. They add a 20% service fee so it makes sense that the waiter wants you to spend more.
We ended up paying around $350 which is not that bad because we expected it to not be cheap but we were too full to even finish all the food.
My personal favorite was the dessert.

I recently tried all the food at Lucia, and while the experience was good overall, it didn’t quite live up to the hype. The service was excellent—the staff were attentive, professional, and made sure everything ran smoothly. The atmosphere was also very nice, creating a comfortable dining setting.

The food itself was great, but not quite at the level I expected given how much this place is talked about. The quality and taste could use a bit of improvement to truly match the reputation Lucia has.

That said, it’s still a wonderful restaurant that I would definitely come back to. With just a few refinements to the menu and flavor profiles, it could easily be a five-star spot.

After months of trying to secure a reservation at Lucia—about 6 to 8 months, to be exact—we finally dined here, thanks to the Resy platform. The difficulty in booking only heightened our anticipation, as it speaks to the restaurant’s popularity and allure. As Mexican from rural South Georgia with a love for bold, spicy flavors, I’ll admit my palate could be less refined, but my extensive travels chasing Michelin-starred and Michelin-guide restaurants (recent stops include La Colombe in South Africa, Pujol in Mexico City, and Zuma in Qatar) give me some perspective to share.
The experience started strong with an incredibly friendly and attentive staff. Our server, John Michael, was a highlight, offering thoughtful suggestions and warm service. The bread and butter starter was a standout—absolutely delicious—but I was surprised it comes at a cost. In a restaurant of this caliber, bread service feels like it should be complimentary. The green salad was underwhelming, just a simple spring mix with lemon juice, lacking complexity. My stuffed cappelletti, which I’d been excited about, was disappointingly bland and only had a few bites. My partner, who is gluten-free, ordered the risotto and found it equally unimpressive. The golden tilefish was a bright spot, cooked beautifully, but the accompanying trimmings were so salty for my taste.
Overall, the meal didn’t live up to the hype or the effort it took to secure a table. The total $183 for two, excluding drinks. While the service and ambiance were great, the food fell short of the expectations set by Lucia’s reputation and elusiveness.

Amazing service!
Delicious food, I was a bit surprised by the pasta I chose, it wasn’t my favorite thing out of all the dishes my friends and I ordered. However, the risotto was phenomenal, and so was the fish option on the menu that day.
Nice bottle of wine to go with our meal made it that much better.
Would love to come back to try some more dishes.
