    The service and food were outstanding. Noise level was loud but not enough that we had to shout. We were off to the side of the downstairs dining room. Valet was $30. I’d go back here in a heartbeat. :)

    This restaurant was wonderful. Visiting from out of town it’s always difficult to choose a great restaurant especially when spoilt for choice in the North End. Lucca did not disappoint from the warm friendly greeting at the front it was a busy Saturday night, yet everyone was courteous, fun and attentive. The bar tenders were super busy but catered to all of our needs. Whilst we booked a table we decided to stay and the bar and eat. We ordered the braised beef with gnocchi Amazing the focaccia was fresh and we also order the most amazing garlic bread. Honestly I was already full after this delight. We went on the order the Halibut with leek and potato puree delicate and so tasty and finished our dining experience with the cheese cake and crème brûlée. Delicious. We only had one drink each the bill was $150 and worth every bit. It was a super experience and if we are in Boston again we would Most definitely eat here.

    Really good. Awesome vibe, friendly fast service, food also was pretty good. The negatives, we sat in the side room, kind of a bummer. Main room with the bars was hopping and fun. Meatball appetizer was good, I was excited so a bit disappointed. I ordered the Ciopinni with some linguini. Really good dish, but not amazing just pretty good. Go and check it out, sick location, vibe on fire on weekends in main room. Try it, a gem on Hanover Street- better than the famous highly marketed restaurants on Hanover. Enjoy!

    I have always enjoyed Lucca when visiting Boston and have introduced many other colleagues to the North End location, but this last trip was disappointing. Service was not nearly as good during dinner service vs. other visits. We had to ask if there were specials and the server acted like we were bothering him by asking to hear them. He also could not answer any specifics about how the dishes were prepared and rushed us to take our order. The meatball appetizer is typically excellent but they were dry and overcooked. The pastas were fine but not up to the quality and flavors I've come to expect. Not sure I will keep Lucca in my rotation when in Boston in the future.

    Everything was good, little pricey but unfortunately every establishment is now a days. Had the shrimp linguine pasta and the rigatoni bolognese. Very well done
