I was excited about visiting this establishment while in Montreal & it exceeded my expectations. I made an error with my reservation & they seamlessly accommodated my wife & me. They paid attention to detail & the food was truly delicious. Service was outstanding too.
What a great experience. We truly enjoyed ourselves. Thank you

This was my second time dining at Lucca's, & the food has been solid & consistent over the years. I always take the opportunity to order an octopus appetizer when they have one on the menu, & it was cooked perfectly once again. Both pasta dishes that were ordered for the main course were excellent as well.

I highly recommend Lucca's to anyone looking for an intimate dining room, a cozy atmosphere, & consistently good food.

There is a reason why this place is so popular. We went on a Thursday night. My girlfriend who's lived in Florence fell in love with this place. Smaller resto which exudes warmth & friendly feeling. You can easily tell that they have their regulars. Shout out to Mike & Peter for making the experience exceptional. We listened to suggestions, easy dialogue. This food isn't obnoxious but just great quality ingredients. My gf started with the zucchini blossoms which were in season. Lightly breaded, wonderfully seasoned with ricotta inside. A wow. I had the calamari, Lightly breaded great seasoning so you could actually taste the calamari.
For our mains I had the lamb with pappadeli noodles & mushroom. I had to ask for extra bread to wipe the bowl clean. A huge wow!
My gf had the gnocchi with sausage. She loved it.
There was no room for dessert.
A great night & absolutely we will be back!!

Delicious food & wonderful service. The lamb chops were amazing & the spanakopita was lovely. The Greek salad was very large & not shy on the feta cheese. Very good & I highly recommend!

The price point is high relative to the overall offering; antipasto was comical. Never saw gnocchi like that, looked like scallops. Excessively noisy, can't hear the people next to me, chair repeatedly bumped into. Emails & requests go completely unnoticed. When it's all Québécois people in the restaurant you know this place has done its time.
