Dante & Gentucca In Lucca

Easily the best pizza we had in Italy. During our 5 days in Lucca, we ate here at least four times. It’s a tiny pizzeria with only 2-3 tables, but it was always packed with people ordering take out. What I loved most about this place was that you selected the kind of pizza you wanted by the slice and together all the different slices could make up a full pizza for the whole family. We could all choose the what we liked best and also sample new kinds each time we visited. We would eat our slices on the go as a picnic in the nearby piazza, or taken them home. The prices are excellent and there are many interesting flavours. The crust is amazing — authentically Italian. Would highly recommend this spot in Lucca!

Delicious pizza spot with many fun and interesting flavors. You can tell they use high quality ingredients as everything tasted very fresh. They use yellow dough in some of the pizza which was interesting. Really loved the pizza with pistachio, sausage, and a hint of curry (?) and this other one with salami and some type of hot honey sauce. Also enjoyed the chickpea slice which is a specialty in Lucca. Only thing I wish was the crust could be a little more soft. There’s also limited seating inside but there are steps that you can sit on directly across which was nice. Highly recommend you stop by if you’re in the area!
