Cafe Luce – Italian Restaurant & Wine Bar

Excellent service. A small but cozy and beautifully decorated space. The main detractor for the atmosphere was the fact that we were seated next to a loud party, although of course that isn’t the restaurant’s fault but does reflect the space constraints. My favorite dish was the spaghetti alle vongole. I didn’t find the desserts particularly exceptional (the chocolate mousse cake and the tiramisu).

We spend a little bit of time in the Cafe. The atmosphere was very calm and cute. We had little chat with the server. She was so kind. Coffees tasted wonderful. Pistachio cake was delicious and I loved the lemon taste with pistachio. If you need a quiet time in the crazy city give a chance this little cafe.

I noticed this restaurant 2 years ago while in the city on a work trip. It piqued my interest because it looked automatically Italian and I was just back from Italy. Kept the location and FINALLY made it back! Food is DELICIOUS! Charming interior. Delicious St. Germain spritzer. Very eager to go back to the city and dine here again. There are so many dishes I want to try. GO!!

A super lovely and cozy spot, with friendliest staff! You won’t believe how narrow the floors are and yet how these guys manage to create a perfect experience for the guests. We loved our both dishes and the focaccia bread. Creamiest Alfredo I’ve had in North America, fr! So happy to have found this gem near our place, won’t have to travel all the way to west village for some great fresh homemade pasta! Thank you Cafe Luce, we WILL be back

My wife and daughter and I came for brunch on Saturday early afternoon. Collectively we had Cacio e pepe, limoncello, and arrabiata with an added burrata (definitely do this)! The food was super quick and insanely good! Note to Cafe Luce- your menu is phenomenal! we would love to see a pasta fight as we had a tough decision to make so why not make it there in a fight! Sorry quick edit. I meant pasta flight but my typing is not great lol
