   Only reason this wasn’t 5 across the board is because it took 2 hours and 15 minutes to get our food. Not sure a cook quit and maybe the only time this has happened but it will be a while before I give it another shot

   We were served four of the five plates in our party. We waited 10 minutes for the other food to be served. By them the other dishes were cold. Service was bad all night. After eating we waited 1/2 hour to see the waiter so we could pay and leave. Were never asked about desert or coffee. Poor!

   Overall the experience was good. The service was excellent. The decor and lighting are really good except for the area I sat in which was a few two seat tables very close to each other. I could hear the conversations of the couples on either side of me as if they were talking to me. I did see some isolated tables in certain pockets of the restaurant but I don't know how one would reserve those specific tables. I am planning to visit again as the food and service exceeded my expectations.

   This is our third year coming here for valentines day dinner and brought another couple this time. The specials for valentines were disappointing. Entrees did not overwelm for flavor, food not hot, toast points burned, alfredo very cold, even the desserts were dissapointing. They did apologize and took a nice discount off of the bill but that was not expected. Must have new cooks because the restaurant was not packed. Waiter was good, drinks were good but our guests were also dissapointed in the food quality. I tipped approprately because I felt bad for the waiter.

   I realize it was Valentines day so there should be some grace, but they knew it was Valentines Day and they would be busy, but the kitchen apparently could not keep up. So everything from our cocktails to our food was painfully slow to come out. The caesar salad was good. The fist basket of bread was just ok and the butter should have been softer. The second bread basket was much better: was warm and soft. I love the atmosphere here, but it was an off night for sure. Our waiter was very nice, but disappeared for long periods of time(maybe had too many tables??).

   Well as always Luce’s Ristorante e Enoteca didn’t disappoint. We attended for Valentines Day although we had reservations but we didn’t like their first recommendation to be seated. We requested the library room at the back and we were very comfortable there. Lamb chops were excellent as always, Lobster Ravioli was ordered by two people who truly enjoyed it and another guest ordered the braised short rib and said it was outstanding. To top it off the staff was very cordial and attentive. We had some Stella Pinot Grigio and some Montelpulciano d Abruzzo which was excellent. When in San Antonio a must visit you will leave amazed. 5 Stars as always and to top it off the Owner Joe is on top of all the plates coming out of the kitchen and at times makes his rounds to his guests. 5 Stars

   Luce’s is one of our favorite restaurants and they didn’t disappoint, even though they were extremely busy. My fish was outstanding!

   We celebrated a friend’s birthday tonight. We had such a lovely evening. The restaurant is beautiful and we sat outside. Sam, our server, really knows his stuff! He was knowledgeable about the menu and helped us with food and cocktail choices. He even lit a candle on our friend’s desert. We had pork chops, chicken parmigiana and eggplant parmigiana. All very tasty. One of the best evenings I’ve had in a long time. I’m looking forward to going back!

    Started our evening at Luce's bar with delicious dirty martinis made by Zander. Great bartender! The selections for Culunaria's restaurant week were varied and descriptions made it hard to choose. First course was enough to fill you up, but we then enjoyed our main courses and desserts choices were a wonderful end to a delicious meal! Sam, our waitperson, did a great job describing what our meal choices might be and up top of all of our requests. This was our 3rd time at Luce for Culunaria week and we'll be back.
