About Carlucci's Italian Grill

Building a family legacy was never the original intention when we arrived in the United States coming from Monte Di Procida, just south of Naples, Italy. Our immediate goal was to follow Mama Rosaria's advice to put your whole heart into everything... More

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Joe Fiorello · Jan 2026

I went here on a recommendation from a friend. The staff were friendly. For an appetizer the fried calamari was spot on delicious and nicely cooked. I ordered a Marguerite Pizza. I assumed it was a full size pie but I was mistaken. The pizza was very good I just wish it made it to the table a little hotter. We also ordered the Italian Rustic Cod, this too was not as hot as expected and tasted a little fishy. No cocktails, only two seltzers for which we were charged $8.00…….Not a terrible experience, just a little disappointing for the price.

We visited the restaurant on Mother's Day, taking advantage of their available outdoor seating on a pleasant weather day. Unfortunately, the servers seemed disorganized and were running around without clear purpose. Consequently, we had to call someone over to start our order. Our assigned server appeared tired and drowsy, displaying no enthusiasm for his work. In fact, he openly expressed being overworked and exhausted. Despite this, he took our order but frequently forgot items, requiring us to remind him. Although he apologized for the oversights, his overall service was clumsy and lacking. On the positive side, the food was excellent. We thoroughly enjoyed every bite, from the flavorful salmon and crab cakes to the delightful puffy bread and even the initial bread they served us. The p

Now that's Italian 🤌 It's been a hot minute since I’ve had Italian food this good. From the second we sat down, they just kept bringing bread. Like, nonstop. Finished a basket? Here comes another. Finished that one? They hit me with a whole loaf of garlic bread and said, “Do you like?” and I said, “Yes. Yes, I like.” I got the penne in a blush sauce (not vodka, but close enough) with a side of meatballs. The meatballs were decent, but the pasta? Unreal. Creamy, cheesy, rich—just perfect. Heavy enough that you know you’re eating real Italian, but not so heavy that you regret your life choices. Bring Lactaid if you need it, though. They’re not shy with the cheese. Lauren got the veal marsala (gluten-free), and while she thought it was a little mild, she still liked it and wants to go back

★★☆☆☆ 2.0 PAT DIAZ · Apr 2019

Food was delicious & staff was very friendly. From appetizers to dessert it was all delicious 😋 unfortunately since last time being there it's changed & very disappointing. Had the special & it only came with 2 scallops & 3 shrimp with very little crabmeat! Asked manager about it & was told its counted! $30 for that. Felt rushed & not happy at all! Had a table that was wobbly & told waiter & he just looked at us & walked away! Never again 😒

We were nearby and were looking for some really good Italian food and were pleasantly surprised by this place. When we got there, we were seated right away in a booth by the window. They immediately brought over some bread with their homemade tomato sauce which was so good. We ordered a kids pizza which was bigger than we expected. They brought us a puffed garlic bread on the house and that was exquisite! I ordered the scallops Angelica and seafood bisque. The bisque was so creamy and full of seafood pieces. It was delicious! I could only eat one of my scallops because I was so full with everything else. My husband ordered the chicken amd shrimp Stephanie and that too was amazing. We ordered a cannoli and a tiramisu to go but ate them I. The car because we couldn't resist! Everything was p
