Founded in 2006, Luce is a local favorite featuring many traditional dishes. Flavors which often bring our guests back to their best memories of Italian specialties.



My goal for this restaurant to create a warm environment for all guests that is typical of a true Italian heritage.



Our menu consists of many Buonincontri family recipes and recipes brought back from travel to Italy.



Fresh fish, meats and produce expound throughout Luce's offerings and a focus on the finest ingredients are what make Luce special.



House made Gnocchi, Italian rice balls and homemade Mozzarella are just a few examples our passion for the finest Italian food.The word Enoteca means wine library. The walls of the entire restaurant are covered with wine bottles as you would expect books to cover the walls of a library. Wine is a very important part of an experience at Luce, with over 125 choices from our wine list available to you.

    Can’t say enough great things about this spot! Party of 10- they seated us immediately, food came fairly quickly even though there were several other large groups besides ours, everyone’s meal tasted delicious, portion size and taste were an incredible value (bonus- HH every day 5-7) plus they allowed separate checks!

    I felt grateful for my 3rd Thanksgiving Dinner with Luce Ristorante E Enoteca! The atmosphere was pleasant, comfortable, and clean, setting the tone for a wonderful meal. The staff were super friendly and attentive, making us feel valued. The 3-course meal was a steal at $40, with each dish expertly prepared. The Turkey entree was a highlight, and the Lasagna entree was equally impressive. Overall, the service and food were truly exceptional.

    As always Luce’s did not disappoint. The setting, the staff, the food and wine was outstanding. Luce’s never disappoints, and all the staff are on point. Joe, the owner is on top of every plate coming out of the kitchen. The staff is very attentive and knowledgeable of all aspects of the menu. We had the Pinot Grigio and the Montepulciano de Abruzzo outstanding wines, plus a Ceasar salad, Lobster Ravioli and Creme Brûlée for dessert. 5 Stars

    Unfortunately we had a very junior waitress. In addition to messing up one of our diners orders, it was then delivered to another diner at our table. When that person realized it wasn’t what they ordered they sent it back. A few minutes later the half eaten plate of food was delivered to the first diner, as his incorrect order. The bill then contained both the incorrect order AND the corrected order that took extremely long. Overall service was slow. Food was tasty.

    Haven’t been here in several years, yet, Luce did not disappoint. Food was as amazing and authentic as ever. You can definitely tell Chef Joe takes pride in his cuisine. He was super nice and the prices aren’t much more than your typical chain restaurants. You’ll definitely love this place. From seafood to ravioli, everything is great.

    As always, Luce was a delight. The food is delicious, and and I love how much of the menu is not the usual Italian fare. The saffron risotto with Italian sausage and langostino tail meat was excellent, as my husband's fettuccini with Italian sausage and chicken. One of my favorites, which I didn't order this time but have on several other visits, is Braciola alla Napoletana, described like this: "Thin Cut Beef, Rolled and Filled with Parsley, Pine Nuts, Bread Crumbs, Raisins, Parmigiano, Toasted Garlic Spinach, and Potatoes." Service was excellent, and the noise level was low outside. You can get less expensive Italian food elsewhere, but what Luce offers is reasonably priced for what you get.
