Restaurants near Isaac Watson House

Lucca’s is an oasis in a vast wasteland. The food, service and ambiance are great. But what sets this place apart from other great Italian restaurants is the live music. As a musician myself, I can assure you that the live music at Lucca’ is not just nice. It’s phenomenal — seriously fantastic pro musicians and great singer. (We heard Eddie Bruce sing and he is nothing short of terrific.) No other restaurant in the philly area has this kind of tremendous vibe. When you go, show some respect and dress up !! Love the dress code, too. As a first timer, I just can’t say enough good things about this spot.

Excellent. Assistant GM, Brandon, greeted us and periodically checked on our table. Our server, Ben, was attentive and charming. Beautifully warm atmosphere. Such a unique establishment. Cheese plate was tastefully arranged with honey, jam, nuts and several perfect cheeses. Pork belly and Caesar salad were lovely and generous apps while all our entrees were to perfection. We had a bit of a “tasting” assortment of deserts which were well worth the indulgence. Highly recommended for a tasting event, holiday, group or date.

Service and food were superb! Two of us had the broccoli rabe, Italian sausage, and gnocchi dinner, which was so tasty. We’ve been here many times before, and we’ll be back again.

Our server was attentive and friendly. Our food was scrumptious and came timely and at a good temperature. I've been here three times already and have never had a bad meal. Excellent experience.

Gianni, Zack, and the team continually impress us. This is a must if you want the full dining experience. Great job, as always!
