Customer Reviews
This is the best restaurant in our small town so it is our go to place for our anniversary. This year we celebrated 13 years of marriage at Lucio's & were not disappointed. My hubby ordered the spaghetti with sausage & peppers & I ordered the Veal Parmesan with Spaghetti. They had a special appetizer of meatballs which were just as phenomenal as our meals were. Get there as they open because spots fill up quickly. Anthony & Gregory are great servers & their tiramisu is mouth watering. Basically we'll be back again & again!
We have gone to Lucios for a number of years and the last couple of times we’ve been there. I have been somewhat disappointed. They have a wonderful selection of salad dressing. Probably the best that I have ever had and their salad is always good. I was disappointed that the veal was tough and that the linguine I had was kind of cold and stuck together. The service and the atmosphere is very nice and their desserts are very good. I just wished that the things that we liked the most wasnt a little off for what we’ve been used to in past years.
Our waiter Greg or Craig was absolutely amazing. He made our experience everything with his suggestions and jokes he made it a wonderful night for us and honestly is the best waiter I have had in over 2 years. I highly recommend this place for everyone interested in great food and a wonderful experience!!!
Lucios is a great family restaurant. There are no reservations so get there early — as soon as the restaurant opens. The wait staff is great, friendly and informative about the dishes. A large salad is shared, delicious dressings. The entrees are huge so be prepared to share or take home a lot of food. My husband ordered the chicken parmigiana which was delicious, the red sauce was the best I’ve ever tasted. I had the mussels with red sauce and pasta. Very good, very plentiful. Wine pours are very generous. Though some might disagree with me I enjoyed the atmosphere of lots of people, a little loud, and everyone enjoying their meals.
This is the worst “Italian food “ (If you can even call it that )I’ve ever had it used to be good a long time ago. This is the second time I’ve been there that the food was disgusting My pasta was brought out without my mozzarella on top and when the mozzarella arrived, it was covered in tomato sauce and not melted. My spaghetti looked as if you poured a jar of sauce on top no one ate the rolls were cold terrible experience I will never go there again. Not authentic Italian food anymore
