Best Live Music Restaurants in Lawrenceville

Our Valentine dinner at Lucca was absolutely exceptional! After enjoying perfect Manhattans by the bartender, Sean, at the gorgeous bar, we opted to have dinner in the piano lounge which was bustling and romantic accompanied by beautiful music throughout our evening. We had the amazing cacio e pepe, prepared tableside, and fantastic grilled octopus for starters. The rack of lamb was tender, perfectly medium rare, as ordered, and so delicious with red wine reduction, and, the wild dover sole in lemon sauce, filleted tableside, was superb! We finished the evening off with a to-die-for pear tart which was so so good! We enjoyed our chat with William Burris, Managing Partner, who was on hand to greet all of his customers and made us feel special. This was my third visit to Lucca and each time has been an incredible experience. We feel so fortunate to have such an amazing dining experience so close to home.

Absolutely beautiful restaurant with great service, food and ambience. Brew pub downstairs also looks like a great time. Great place to bring people for a surprisingly unique dining experience.

This was our first visit to Steakhouse 85. We enjoyed the whole experience. The food, service, value and ambiance were top of the line. We were there on their Date Night. For $125 a couple, you get an appetizer, entree, desert and bottle of wine from their short list. The selections for Date Night gave us good choices and we chose things that we were going to order originally. I will definitely go back and highly recommend it!

At the entrance John greeted us! It was our anniversary and he was just so nice…. He made sure we were well taken care! it did make my day! Food was good and best was the chocolate lava cake.. which was not too sweet atall! ❤️❤️❤️

This was our first visit to Ficus. Great atmosphere as soon as you go up the stairs to the main part of the dining room. I was with 3 friends, all of us thoroughly loved our evening. The waitress was adorable and sweet. The food was delicious. Highly recommend the shrimp dumplings! We all had a different entree: Fettuccine Alfredo, Bolognese, Honey Miso Salmon and vegetable medley. We all loved our meals. We ended the evening trying 3 of the desserts— a MUST! All the desserts are made in house. They are divine! Chocolate Cake, Creme Brûlée and Yuzu Sorbet with fresh fruit….delicious and a perfect ending to our evening. Highly recommend this gem!
