Lucca Restaurant est largement reconnu comme une destination de choix pour une cuisine italienne authentique et raffinée à Montréal, recevant des éloges constants pour ses saveurs sophistiquées, ses ingrédients frais et ses plats parfaitement exécutés tels que les linguine aux fruits de mer, les côtelettes d'agneau et la pieuvre grillée. Les clients décrivent souvent l'ambiance comme chaleureuse, intime et accueillante, ce qui en fait un lieu idéal pour les occasions spéciales comme pour les repas d'affaires, bien que certains notent que l'espace est restreint et l'environnement assez animé. Si la majorité des avis souligne un service impeccable, professionnel et une équipe attentionnée, l'expérience peut parfois varier en ce qui concerne le niveau sonore, les prix et la constance du service. Malgré des opinions divergentes sur les portions et quelques soirées en deçà des attentes, l'établissement demeure une référence pour ceux qui recherchent une expérience gastronomique qui capture l'essence même de l'Italie.
A beautifully relaxed lunch at Luca - the kind of place that feels effortlessly alive.
The space is intimate, yet filled with a soft buzz of conversation & warmth. Sunlight, fresh flowers, & the gentle rhythm of service set the tone the moment you walk in.
We started with a comforting soup & perfectly crisp calamari, followed by a rich, creamy pasta that felt both indulgent & refined. The grilled chicken was simple but executed just right - tender, juicy, & full of flavor. Paired with a glass of red, everything came together seamlessly.
It's not a large space, but that's exactly its charm - lively, welcoming, & quietly elegant. A spot that doesn't try too hard, yet gets everything right. Definitely one to return to.
We are a foodie couple from New York City, & we have had the opportunity to dine at many restaurants in our city. My family lives in Canada, so we visit frequently, & over the past two to three years, we discovered Lucca online through its outstanding reviews.
Although our visits are often filled with family commitments & we have not yet experienced dinner service, we have enjoyed lunch here three times over the past two years. Each visit has been consistently exceptional.
From the moment you walk in, the restaurant offers a beautiful, cozy, & romantic atmosphere. The service is warm, attentive, & genuinely welcoming. One of the waiters, whose name may be Thomas, left a lasting impression by recognizing us on our second visit, which speaks volumes about the level of care & professionalism of the team.
As for the food, it is truly outstanding. The quality is evident in every dish, fresh ingredients, refined flavors, & thoughtful presentation. My husband, who is Italian, is particularly discerning when it comes to Italian cuisine, & he was thoroughly impressed. We both agree that if this restaurant were located in New York City, it would easily be worthy of Michelin recognition.
It is important to understand that this is an upscale restaurant. The pricing reflects the quality of the food, the service, & the overall experience. In our view, it is entirely justified. When dining at this level, the focus should be on the experience, the ambiance, & the craftsmanship of the cuisine, rather than simply the portion size.
Regarding a recent two-star review mentioning portion size & pricing, from Karine Khachatrian we respectfully feel that such criticism may not fully reflect what this restaurant offers. Value is not only measured in quantity, but in quality, service, & overall dining experience.
We have no personal connection to the restaurant or its owners. We simply believe that exceptional establishments deserve fair & thoughtful recognition. Despite having visited over the past few years, we had not taken the time to leave a review until now, & we felt it was important to do so.
We are already planning our next visit for lunch in late June with a group of four to six people, & we look forward to returning. We have never left disappointed, & we truly appreciate the dedication & talent of the entire team.
Thank you to the owner & staff for consistently providing such a memorable dining experience. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
Location excellente, un peu dispendieux pour le lunch à mon goût, mais ça en vaut chaque dollar quand même.
Petit point négatif est que c'était très bruyant, & ce n'était pas l'idéal pour mon lunch d'affaires.

Went for lunch, 5-min wait. Expansive Italian wine selection. Curated lunch menu has excellent choices. Mushroom soup, fettuccine frutti di mare, tomato burrata salad all excellent.
Lucca has become my'wishful thinking lunch cafeteria' as in... If I had enough money I would be eating here a few times every week for lunch! The team here is a big part of the reason why... both in front & behind the counter. They select fresh ingredients & produce a lot of what they sell in-house ... hello pasta & the wait staff is a bunch of several years experience regular staff (what a rare thing to find these days!!!). I have brought so many friends & associates there & realized I had not done a review for them & felt guilty about it... that's how good it is! Come in & try the specials of the day & tell me I'm wrong!
Then as a bonus, the decor is épuré & posh modern, they have a nice terrasse in the summer & their wine selection will show you some of the best Italy has to offer at a modest price considering!

Incredible restaurant! The food, service, & ambiance overall made for the best rainy day lunch. Shout of to Fabio for the awesome espresso martinis & terrific service!
Amazing food & pristine service. Very cozy atmosphere. Perfect location for lunch, dinner with friends or colleagues, or a romantic date night. Would not recommend for young kids.
