I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Lucca

24/05/2026: Unfortunately, this was one of the most disappointing restaurant visits we've had in a long time. The food was of poor quality, disappointing in taste, and, in our opinion, not worth the price. The service seemed inattentive and unenthusiastic. It was far from a good dining experience. Definitely not a reason for us to return.

24/05/2026: The lasagna was cold and tasteless! The service was also poor. I received a bottle of water, but no glasses.

27/01/2026: This place is close to my work. Great for a lunch break and a proper meal. The food is good, and there's a wide selection of starters, main courses, side dishes, and even sandwiches. The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful. Quick service, no waiting for a table; they also do home delivery. It was a great discovery.

15/01/2026: Everything was homemade and delicious. The staff was courteous and kind.

02/01/2026: Excellent restaurant. Very varied menu, high-quality dishes, and impeccable service. Highly recommended.

01/01/2026: They got the order wrong, the quality of the products, like the prosciutto and mascarpone, not to mention paying 40 euros for 3 pizzas and a Coke: we need to change a bit!...

14/05/2026: The only thing worth mentioning is the location. Total disappointment with the dinner and the service. High prices for ready-made sauces made from frozen fish, limited variety in the dishes offered, and "minimal" portions. I left there still hungry. How did this end up in the Michelin guide?

02/05/2026: If the goal was to feel ignored, confused, and mocked... mission accomplished. We went to Da Cecco, and the experience was, without exaggeration, one of the worst we've ever had in a restaurant. Not so much for the food, which was overall decent, but for the service management that was embarrassing to say the least. As soon as we arrived, our "welcome" was a glass of wine literally thrown on the table and an already-opened bottle left there, unfilled. No attention, no care. The bread? Forgotten: we had to ask for it ourselves. The wine? Served without any care to keep it chilled. Chaos reigned from the start: wrong orders, waiters arguing among themselves in front of customers, total disorganization. All this with just 15 tables and only two people in the dining room, clearly incapable of managing even such a small situation. Unacceptable wait times: appetizer arrived at 8:00 PM, fried food at 9:30 PM. When asked for clarification, the waitress's response was surreal: "If I go to the kitchen to ask, they'll get angry." A phrase that alone describes the level of service. We had to wait for other tables to finish their first courses to receive our fried food, even though we hadn't ordered any entrees. And when it finally arrived, another disappointment: we had asked for a typical Viareggio fried food with mixed seafood, but were told it wasn't available. We settled for two fried calamari and shrimp dishes... different, one full of vegetables, the other with little fish. The portions were unbalanced and inconsistent. The icing on the cake: the price was different from the menu. The fried food listed at 16 euros was charged 17, with an unclear and decidedly unprofessional justification. No apology, no discount, nothing. In short: you can eat decently, but the treatment you receive and the total lack of organization make this place absolutely inadvisable. It's not just poor service here, but management that borders on disinterest in the customer. Going elsewhere is definitely the best option.

03/05/2026: €74 for 4 pieces of focaccia and two slices of pizza, waited an hour and a half, is objectively too much.

18/04/2026: The focaccia is good, but the salad isn't. Low quality and lack of attention to detail. The tart is not bad.

14/10/2025: It has been closed for a few years

09/05/2026: Great food away from the touristy plaza. You are welcomed by Michael like if you were a friend. Great food and drinks, fair prices. Spoil yourself with a steak fiorentina and you’ll ask yourself why you didn’t book an extra night.

21/04/2026: Excellent meat and good service. Very good value for money.

17/03/2026: Gaio, the host, leaves nothing to chance. The hospitality is incredible, the food quality (all regional) top marks, the appetizers are enough to make a dinner, the first courses are homemade, and the meats are the restaurant's strong point. The atmosphere is beautiful, traditional, and welcoming. Despite the crowds in the summer, the clientele is diverse: tourists, regulars, and many locals. My favorite restaurant in Forte dei Marmi.

15/02/2026: A subdued experience. The prices seemed too high for the culinary offerings. The location is in a dated rustic style and, in my opinion, does not justify the final bill. I found the markups on the wine list decidedly excessive.

03/05/2026: Pizza? Calling it that is blasphemy...absolutely bad both in quality and price.

03/05/2026: Inedible pizza.... Poor quality products... Pre-cooked pinsa base paid a lot for the place where it is located

02/05/2026: A little less than the previous ones, but it was an Easter lunch...

28/04/2026: A good restaurant in a welcoming location. The first courses were very good, with portions that weren't particularly generous. The appetizer wasn't entirely satisfying, and given the price, we expected more.

06/04/2026: I never leave negative reviews, but unfortunately, this place gave me one. Easter Monday, lots of tables, and an emergency power outage along the entire promenade. So far, bad luck, but not the restaurant's fault. The problem arises when the entire dining room, manned by just two waitresses, was abandoned for the entire meal, with no apologies or updates. We had ordered a mixed four-course appetizer, and three arrived after an hour and a half (since the food was cold and ready, it didn't require electricity). An hour later, they came asking for second courses. I asked for the quickest option available, and after five minutes, a plate of paccheri arrived for two. Dissatisfied with the emergency management, we went to pay full price for everything, even the appetizer, for which we only received three of the four courses. I'm sorry, but I've never left a place feeling so disappointed and angry. It's not the emergency, but the lack of attention shown by those who pay full price for no attention.

06/04/2026: I usually avoid leaving negative reviews, but this time I couldn't help it. It was Easter Monday, the restaurant was packed, and there was a power outage along the entire waterfront: an unfortunate situation, certainly, and not attributable to the restaurant. The problem, however, was how it was handled. The entire outdoor dining area was manned by just two waitresses, and we were, in fact, completely neglected throughout the entire lunch, without any explanation or update. We had ordered a mixed appetizer consisting of four courses: after an hour and a half, only three of them arrived, all cold dishes that didn't even require electricity. After about an hour, we were asked for second courses; I asked for something quick, and after a few minutes, a single plate of paccheri arrived for two to share. The most disappointing thing was the bill: we paid full price for everything, including the incomplete appetizer. It's not so much the emergency itself, which can happen, but the complete lack of attention and care towards customers who, despite everything, pay in full. I left feeling truly disappointed and bitter.

08/02/2026: Traditional pizzeria, where pizza is a cult. Original flavors that endure over time. For me, it's like being a kid again! A pizza that's instantly digestible. The quality of the ingredients makes all the difference. What can I say about the Cecina? Fantastic! I recommend stopping by and trying a slice to take away!

12/01/2026: A quaint, family-friendly place right in the heart of Lucca. The staff is attentive, polite, and above all friendly and kind. The owner is a delightful and very pleasant person. We came in with a stroller and they gave us a little room all to ourselves. We ordered a Capricciosa for two (we were initially hesitant whether it would be enough for two, especially since I eat a lot). It was a feast of visuals and authenticity. In short, if you want to feel at home, eat well, and spend little, go to this pizzeria.

18/03/2026: Small hamlet in the municipality of Zocca.

18/01/2026: I love this place. Beautiful views all around. Waking up at sunrise and going to bed with a beautiful sunset ❤️
