I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Lucca

07/01/2026: Pizzeria on the promenade. The pizza used to be good, but I think pizzerias don't exist anymore.

22/09/2025: Service: The wine we wanted to drink, which the staff said was a great decision, wasn't available. The bottle that we then ordered was brought to us open, but we couldn't even test it first, so we had to pour the first glass ourselves. The waiter had problems speaking english and was not flexible at all with the dish selection, since many dishes weren't available. We had to pay inside at the register, so with all that in mind, why does one have to pay cover charge? Food: The mozarella in the caprese salad was very jewy and the olive oil and aceto balsamico came in plastic bags, again why cover charge? The fish was okay but bland. The gnocchi were mushy and the shrimp sauce tasted frozen with a weird rotten fish aftertaste. Also the shrimps were cut open and there were scissors of other sea animals in the dish. We had to return it because it was inedible.

20/02/2026: Amazing. I've never left a restaurant without trying the food. Here, yes, I ran away. I recommend the penne al Cinghiale, you'll remember it for life.

09/01/2026: Let's just say it's an experience. A dive into the '70s, like those trattorias you'd see in films starring Alvaro Vitali and Lino Banfi. Fixed menu, all included, for €18. Even wine. Obviously, you can't expect Masterchef quality, but if you want to fill up decently, this is the place for you. Of all the dishes I tried, I honestly wasn't crazy about the cacio e pepe; the cheese was left in the kitchen, but the other dishes were fine. Sufficient.

28/11/2025: If you're looking for a place to eat well and with attention to detail in Forte dei Marmi, this bar is an excellent choice!

Don't forget to ask Michela to recommend the specials of the day or customize the menu based on your preferences. I give my rating ***** 5/5 ❤️❤️❤️❤️☕️🥂

23/11/2025: We ask for 5 Aperol Spritz and they give us the pre-made Spritz in a bottle without even telling us and all for the modest price of €10 each 😂😂 Go back..

05/07/2025: Always closed. I had a voucher and couldn't use it. A disgrace.

10/06/2025: I'm talking about years ago, the last time (about 1 month ago) it was closed

20/03/2026: Beautiful place in the heart of Lucca, very kind and adorable waitresses, especially the nice girl with glasses and the girl with red hair. Perfect :)

19/03/2026: Lots of places to select in this wonderful Ancient Roman piazza. Good salume plate, homemade pastas. Sunny lunch atmosphere. Go here. 😎😎😎

30/10/2025: The sandwiches and pinsa were truly excellent. The place is beautiful and welcoming. The bill was fair, and the service was quick and efficient. If we're in town again, we'll definitely stop by again.

12/09/2025: Nice coffee, nice service 😀 and delicious cookies 🍪 😘

15/01/2026: The food was absolutely delicious. We ordered a very nice, crispy Margherita pizza and a delicious pancake, though it was a bit pricey.

14/10/2025: A very disappointing experience. The service was extremely poor, and the restaurant manager was rude—he didn't even look at us or try to make us feel welcome. They were very slow and unprofessional, especially considering how expensive this place is. I definitely do not recommend it—not for tourists or anyone else. One of the female staff members was particularly impolite, speaking to us in a disrespectful way. The only good person was the Moroccan girl—she was kind and polite. Other than that, terrible service overall. A very disappointing experience. The service was terrible, and the restaurant manager was rude—he didn't even look at us or greet us politely. They were slow and unprofessional, especially considering the high prices. I absolutely do not recommend it, not to tourists or anyone else. One of the waitresses was particularly rude and spoke disrespectfully to us. Only the Moroccan girl was kind and helpful. Otherwise, terrible service.

02/01/2026: An aperitif in front of Piazza San Michele at a reasonable price

02/01/2026: Had a wonderful lunch on New Year's Day! Very authentic and great service. The chestnut side dish was a real highlight!
