Review Summary

Reviews describe Lucca as an authentic upscale Italian spot in Little Italy where guests celebrate fresh pasta, seafood and meat dishes, a warm, convivial atmosphere, and service that many find attentive and knowledgeable. Standout selections often mentioned include seafood linguine, octopus, lamb chops, pappardelle, and the house bread, with tiramisu and pistachio ice cream noted for dessert and a well curated wine list praised for pairing with the menu. The setting is described as cozy and refined, sometimes bustling or tightly spaced, with reservations suggested to avoid delays. While the overall impression is highly favorable and Lucca is regarded among the citys best Italian restaurants, a few reviews point to occasional inconsistencies in service or value, such as billing for larger portions without clear consent or meals that are lukewarm. Taken together, the reviews portray Lucca as a top choice for authentic Italian cuisine in Montreal, delivering high quality flavors, a strong wine program, and a welcoming atmosphere that invites repeat visits.

Chic atmosphere, refined service, & excellent food.

I'm not very used to dining at upscale restaurants here in Montreal yet, but I would confidently recommend this one. It feels like an authentic Italian kitchen, with a well-crafted menu & service that matches the experience.

I ordered the pasta with ragù - excellent. The fried calamari was also very good.

Ask around & you'll hear that this is THE best restaurant in Little Italy. The setting was wonderful, the ambiance was lovely (chic, even), & the maitre d' was exceptional--presenting a dramatic reading of the menu. But the food was disappointing. It was standard (not exceptional), & only one dish (the fried calamari) came out sufficiently hot or sufficiently seasoned. You'll be out of place without a bottle of Acqua Panna on your table, so go for a big night out & expect a hefty tab.

Stopped by during the day to see the menu & inquired about reservation. Advised the chef just arrived & menu is not ready yet. Liked the fact that chef is in charge of me he based on available ingredients of the day. Small & cozy place. Reservation was made for 6 PM with our commitment to leave by 8:30 PM. Seasonally available food was fresh Hence, delicious. Fried calamari was heavenly light & crispy. Fresh figs filled with cheese & wrapped in spam was little salty but coupled with glass of red wine was perfect. Grilled Veal chop with polenta & spinach was juicy & cooked to perfection. Halibut, shrimp combined with fresh grilled asparagus, peppers, zucchini, eggplant & anise was my favorite special of the day. Fish was just grill enough to be moist & delicious. Shrimp was crispy yet not dry. Dessert options sounded good but diet killed the pleasure 😔. Oh well next time

Excellent food, friendly service, great menu choices. We started with fried calamari & grilled octopus. It was fresh & delicious. As for the main course I had the filet mignon it was amazing & my better half had the gnocchi, he loved it, it's handmade by their chef! I recommend this place.
