I got the beef tenderloin and it was really good! Very flavorful and cooked just right. They have a very extensive wine list which is nice. I do wish they had more traditional Italian items on the menu, however, they do have some dishes that I’d love to go back and try. We sat right by the window and it was perfect weather for that. Very happy with the experience!

We had a wonderful meal at Lucca’s last night. It has an upscale, modern, classy aesthetic and the food is DELICIOUS. After seeing the portion sizes in Boston’s Italian establishments, my mom and I shared the lobster fettuccine, and — wow — so good. I could eat that all day long. Our waiter was an attractive and attentive thirtysomething, good job Lucca 😉

What a pleasant experience. Was lucky enough to get a table without reservation (got there before 5.30pm). The place is bustling. Received a delicious piece of bread with a green spread from the house, which was yummie! Very nice staff. They even have sauvignon blanc from St Clair NZ, omg what a delight, love that wine! I ordered orichiette pasta, which I know from Puglia. When I got it, it honestly looked completely different from what I expected, in a small black oven dish, gratinated with cheese. Decided to keep an open mind and was happily surprised; this chef knows what he’s doing! Nopr, not low carbs, but enjoyed every single bite. Unfortunately leaving Boston tomorrow because otherwise they’d have me tomorrow all over again haha. Next time then 🙂 Spent USD60 ex tip.

It’s okay – it appears overpriced for the experience & food. It seems like one of those places that was a super popular a couple years back, but has lost its way & now feels more like an Italian sports bar with some overpriced dish’s. The food was good, also unusually fast. The the point you wonder how fresh is it? The is not something you feel good about spending $100 on. I would recommend finding somewhere else.

Bill was an excellent server which is a rarity these days. Very informative and knowledgeable about the menu. Food was superb. Greeted by owner/manager coming in and leaving Really made you feel special. Another rarity In restaurants. It’s those little touches that make a big difference. Will definitely be back next time we come back to Boston.

Went there for late night drinks on a Monday night with a buddy. Cool little spot with stained glass windows everywhere across the venue. I feel there’s a story there I should have asked but there’s definitely some history or historical information I’m missing. Recommend checking it out

The service and atmosphere of Lucca North End is outstanding. They have an extensive wine list for wine lovers. We ordered garlic and mozzarella bread as an appetizer. It was extremely cheesy and able to be eaten as an entree due to size and richness. They also brought bread and a pesto spread to the table. The spread was a chickpea pesto that tasted more like hummus than it did pesto. My vegetarian spouse ordered the cheese ravioli. The pasta was a little too thick, and ended up tasting slightly undercooked. In hindsight, we should’ve split that with a vegetable side. I ordered the orecchiette with pork, broccolini, and tomato. This dish came in a white cheese cream sauce, which was pretty decadent. I would have preferred more broccolini and less tomato. The pork tasted as if it they were mini pork meatballs cooked separately and then added to the dish at the last minute.

The food here is amazing! It’s unbelievable how good it tasted! Get the duck confit tart as an appetizer, it is great! The fresh linguine as an entree was the best pasta I’ve ever had! The chef here has to be one of the best in the world!

Everything was amazing. Perfect place for dinner in the North End with a nice end of summer breeze if you sit by the street side. Our server, Justin was amazing and humorous. We got the steak plate and the lobster plate, as you can see they looked amazing. For the dessert we got the chocolate torte and coconut cheesecake. Everyone was very attentive as well. The menu has a little of everything as far as options and it isn’t a huge menu if you tend to get easily overwhelmed. Will definitely come back, thank you!
