I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Lucca

01/09/2025: Everything exceeded our expectations. Excellent food (and plenty of it), fair prices, and friendly, professional waiters. Recommended.

01/09/2025: It was great, the steak came on a hot stone. You can't complain 👍.

06/09/2025: A charming location, with attention to detail and customer service. The staff is kind and professional, and very attentive even to requests outside the menu. Refined food and top-quality ingredients. Excellent wine selection and a knowledgeable sommelier on hand. I went with my mom; she had fish and I had meat, and as they say in my area... "everything was delicious!" 😅 "Unfortunately, I only took pictures of the vegetables (which you absolutely have to try anyway!), but I highly recommend the desserts, which are truly unique and excellent. Thanks to all the staff for a pleasant evening. Reasonable price. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

06/09/2025: Overall good. Some portions could be adjusted with respect to the price.

22/08/2025: One of the best steaks ever. Very friendly staff, and the prices are reasonable. I can happily recommend it. Thank you very much.

15/08/2025: The tartare was fantastic, as were the steak and the sides. Very friendly staff

20/08/2025: Poor-quality cocktails: very watered down. The Santa Monica tasted like lavender that should have been thrown away, and the Negronis were lacking in color and flavor. For four of us, we were only served two small portions of chips, and when we asked for peanuts, we were told that, given the time it was close to closing, they weren't available (we're talking peanuts!). For €10, a cocktail should be of superior quality and serve a little more (I repeat, a little more). Reply dated August 20 It's a shame I didn't take a photo of the menu; next time I'll do so. So much so that the waitress was made a joke while ordering because someone at the table was named Monica. Disproving a very specific customer on an objective basis doesn't help the manager's credibility. I'd add that the quality of the cocktails, despite the textbook recipe, were extremely poor and not worth the €10. Finally, considering peanuts a food, when they're only used to put a little something in your stomach long after dinner to reduce the sensation of alcohol (certainly not to satiate you), completely disqualifies your answer. If you're interested, check out my reviews, which are always focused on precise details and not on criticizing restaurateurs.

31/07/2025: We absolutely loved this place. We went there almost every evening while in Lucca and we fell in love with the beautiful atmosphere, the romantic garden in the back but most of all with the staff. They made us feel so welcome and we laughed a lot. The cocktails were surprising and delicious, with the Santa Maria and Pomelo Negroni being our favorites. We had the vegetarian board and they were very accommodating to one of us eating vegan. This is a must go when you are in Lucca!

23/08/2025: I went to eat with my partner, and we had a great time. They were really nice and truly love their work, and nowadays it's hard to find someone with that much passion. The food was excellent, and I'll be back.

23/08/2025: Truly perfect in every way! I'd say it's a unique place in Viareggio... friendly, courteous staff, and top-notch food! Highly recommended!!!

24/08/2025: I've been to this restaurant and I must say the experience was excellent in every way. The quality of the fish is truly extraordinary: fresh, carefully prepared. Each dish showcases the ingredients to their fullest, with balanced pairings. The location is extraordinary; I wasn't expecting it... The staff is attentive and friendly. The atmosphere is elegant yet welcoming, perfect for both a romantic dinner and an evening with friends. The value for money is more than fair, considering the high quality of the cuisine and the freshness of the ingredients.

19/08/2025: I went for dinner a few days ago with some friends and we had a really good time. The staff was friendly and attentive. We went on a busy August evening, and the waiters and the owner apologized several times (which I really appreciated, it's not a given!) The restaurant is elegant inside, and has a delightful garden outside! I find it perfect for any occasion, whether for families or a dinner with friends. We had the steak, which was truly delicious! Highly recommended!!

05/09/2025: If you're in Pietrasanta and want to try something different but good, I recommend this place. The cuisine is free of animal products. We had some very good plant-based cheeses with their sauces and jams. We also had some plant-based tordelli, which are usually made with meat. I must say they were excellent. The cheese on the tordelli was plant-based but very good. The risotto, being a specialty, requires a different approach, but the risotto I had, called Mediterraneo, was very good. Finally, the dessert, a meringue with berries, was delicious. I highly recommend it and will return to try other dishes.

04/09/2025: We had a delicious meal at one of the few vegan restaurants in the area. Everything was freshly prepared, and it was a wonderful experience to try something new. We both had a wonderful dinner. Will definitely be back... Best, Mike & Ingrid

12/09/2025: Excellent piadinas at fair prices. It's a shame that the outside seating is very basic, but well-kept, and the paper packaging that holds the piadinas isn't liquid-proof, so the sauces and condiments will inevitably spill onto the table. It's a shame, because a different packaging would be enough to make the piadina completely edible.

06/09/2025: Lots of choice, quality raw materials and, with the "how I want it" option, you can create whatever you like!!

02/09/2025: What a great discovery! We had dinner here a couple of weeks ago and it was a great decision!!! Excellent food, highly recommended the tagliolini with amberjack and the off-menu dish, a perfectly cooked picanha, was delicious! The service was always attentive and courteous! We relied on the head waiter to help us choose the wine and that was perfect too! What can I say, we'll definitely be back! Well done!

30/08/2025: Excellent food! Fair, average prices, friendly, attentive waiters. We'll definitely be back! Recommended.

04/09/2025: Excellent food, friendly staff, breathtaking view

27/08/2025: In the center of Pedona, a simple, honestly run restaurant. The tortelli and fried farmer's food are excellent. Parking is limited.

17/07/2025: Book early. Otherwise, it'll be full. And for good reason.

12/07/2025: One of the best culinary surprises during our stay in Lucca. The restaurant is unassuming, open only limited hours, but it's worth planning a visit. We ordered the prosciutto and stracchino appetizer – it was fantastic. I also recommend the steaks – they were some of the best-cooked meats we've had in a long time. The service was also exceptionally friendly. This place is a real find. If you're in the area – be sure to check them out!

31/08/2025: Exceptional pastry shop. Exquisite, expertly crafted desserts. For my wedding, they made me a spectacular cake, both in construction and deliciousness. I can't recommend them enough. 👌

23/08/2025: I've had the opportunity to try their cakes on several special occasions and have never been disappointed! They're quick to respond, available to accommodate any request, and always kind.

04/09/2025: Everything was perfect. We ordered truffle-flavored meat and potatoes, which was a wonderful combination. Every dish was fresh and delicious. I definitely recommend it. We ordered meat, potatoes, mushroom salad, fish, a bottle of wine, dessert, and coffee. The total came to 105 euros. The waiters were also very polite and attentive. The only thing missing was some relaxing classical music to accompany these wonderful meals😊

30/08/2025: Amaro is a safe bet for me. The food is good, the staff is friendly and professional, and the service is also well-executed and pleasant. Good value for money. I go there often because I feel good there!

19/08/2025: We went to dinner at this restaurant and immediately felt at home; we found a family atmosphere. The owner is truly a super welcoming and kind person. She explained the off-menu dishes with incredible detail, but I can say that all the staff is very kind and knowledgeable. We ate some truly excellent traditional dishes; I recommend it for a traditional dinner.

13/08/2025: Warm atmosphere and great ambiance! All the staff were very kind! Excellent food!!! I highly recommend it!

07/08/2025: Cozy place, very good food. Excellent hospitality. Recommended!

27/07/2025: Cosy place with excellent cocktails. They adjust to mocktail if you want something without alcohol. The owners are really nice people! We went here two years in a row on our holiday and enjoyed it every time.
