    It was my first time at Luciano’s, and my friends and I had a great experience. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, with the festive Christmas decorations and the fireplace created a cozy ambiance. For apps, I ordered the grilled lamp chop lollipops, which was incredibly flavorful. Then I had the scallops with butternut squash risotto which were both plentiful and delicious. Service was great overall.

    Kind of noisy but like a busy/cool to be there type of vibe. Don’t sleep on the buffalo chicken dumplings-pricey but well worth it. The cavatelli were rich, bursting with flavor from the sausage and mushrooms. Was full but indulged in the sticky toffee pudding-rich and buttery. Expensive and the portions looks small, but the food is rich and quality is outstanding. Great place to go for a special dinner.
