   Last minute reservation. We came just before the kitchen closed, so everyone was in a rush. Food and atmosphere were fine. A decent location for a simple meal. They have a good reputation for pizzas, that we haven’t tried.

   Beautiful dining room but that’s where beautiful ended. Service was incredibly slow, ordered a pizza and a chicken entree. Both arrived after a long wait and while we could understand the pizza was cold because of the ingredients.: arugula, mozzarella and cheese, the chicken dish was cold. But it took a while to get our waiter back to ask for the chicken to be warmed up. Eventually it came back warning but not hot like you would expect for a dish just cooked. The manager apologized profusely. We had nearly given up ordering dessert because of easier was nowhere to be seen. To be fair we were given a discount, however the experience was tainted. Very disappointed because the restaurant is beautiful.

   Good service ! Both we took pasta my wife and me. The bolognese lasagna for me and the rigatoni for my wife. My plate was just ok. No special taste with their sauce. The rigatoni with goat cheese and mushroom was much better. Good value for price ! Thanks to tne luccas team !

   Food is very good and Value for money is a great place to eat. Make sure you try the appetizers as they come with a truffle aioli that is amazing

    Lucca is a great, go-to place in El Cangrejo. The Italian cuisine is high quality and authentic but at reasonable prices. Don't see your exact pasta choice on the menu? You can ask for a la putanesca or amatriciana and they'll make it for you. The pizzas are topped with first-rate ingredients and the dough is very good quality, even though it's not the crispiest I've ever tasted. The Italiosa and La Centrale are outstanding pizzas. The drinks are also quite good.
