How did we miss this restaurant all these 8 years? Easy, the signage (outside the Omni) is terrible! But now that we know about this great place, it’s on our list for sure. Warm brussel sprouts Caesar was a welcome and super tasty departure from my typical starter salad (and enough for two), but the dressing was too salty for my taste. I’ll try another next time. And there will be a next time! My husband declared the burrata the best he’s tasted in the world (and he’s traveled it for sure) Bang bang grouper and tuna tacos were also tops. Our server was great, fun and attentive. Our loss that this was our first meal here. Please add signs.

Luce was a delightful experience! It was a little difficult to find, but the restaurant, service and staff were wonderful. The food was equally wonderful. I will return anytime I’m in Charlotte, NC. One of the best Italian restaurants we’ve been to in the USA.
