Luca On James

Luca is absolutely incredible, for sure the best food in the area! We were lucky enough to be able to have our rehearsal dinner at Luca and we could not have been more thankful. They created a family style pre fixe meal which was absolutely delicious. The service was also incredible, always available for anything we needed. I could not recommend Luca more highly for an event or just for a nice meal with friends or family.

My favorite restaurant in Lancaster. I dine here a few times a month and love it. They specialize in seasonal wood fired cooking. Everything is always fresh and the menu rotates regularly. Reservations are not easy as this is a very popular restaurant. You can try to walk in or call ahead and may be able to get bar seating. They no longer serve pizza here as they opened a sister restaurant LUCA Pizza, but the pizza is not the same as it was. Nathan and his team are very talented chefs.

Great Italian restaurant in the city with wonderful cocktails, small plates and entrees. They used to have a sizable pizza menu made in their wood fired oven but that operation is now run out of their Luca Pizzeria location (sans the wood fired oven) on Harrisburg Pike. We ordered the Wagyu Carpaccio as a starter, which was divine. My husband decided on the Wild Boar Lasagna and I had the seared Halibut. For dessert we shared the Butterscotch Budino. Overall, one of the better meals in Lancaster, but reservations are required (yes, even for bar seating).

Luca doesn't miss! Been here a handful of times - reservations definitely required - and the food is always top notch. Drinks are incredibly tasty, and I like that they have aperitifs if you're in the mood for something lighter. Even when it's busy, the service is always great, and food comes out quick.

Food was delicious! My bolognese was perfectly portioned. We made a reservation and we’re seated on arrival. This is a big space and they use it well. There are a few different seating areas that could suit the ambiance you’re looking for. We had great service and the drinks were strong! For two people we had an appetizer, two cocktails, two entrees and dessert drinks for around $100. It’s a smaller menu, but you’ll still have trouble picking out what you want since everything sounds so tasty. Definitely a great place for a date night or special occasion.

Best restaurant in Lancaster! Warm, welcoming staff 100% of the time! Get a seat at the bar - wonderful hospitality! The food is like being in Italy! This is not a pizzeria place! This is fine dining around the staple of pizza. It is a beautiful dining room that reflects the culture of the place - airy, open, fun and innovative. It is a gem!

We went on a Sunday evening it was very busy. The tables are jammed into this place to maximize space so you are surrounded by lots of ongoing conversations next to you. Our server was prompt and knowledgeable and very pleasant. I got the skirt steak it was good, very tender cooked perfectly but the plating was a bit sloppy made it less appealing. Terrific all natural and organic wine menu. Overall I give it 4 stars
