Snuck in here without reservation Saturday night. Highly recommend. Lobster ravioli awesome. Pesto tortellini also excellent.
Food and service both superb. Was pleased the owner came by the table to chat. Nice touch.
Such an amazing experience. Our food was outstanding, our waiter wonderful. We are visiting Boston for the first time and canceled our reservations elsewhere and are incredibly happy we did so. From the convenient valet parking, to the delicious home cooked Italian meal it is no surprise this restaurant is celebrating it's 40th year. Doing something absolutely right, Lucia family. Thank you.
Great food and service
The Marco Polo seafood dish was fabulous with a generous portion.
Entire team was attentive, efficent and very welcoming.
A true old school / old world Italian Family restaurant.
Worth the walk to the top of the hill from Faniuel Hall
We will return when next in town
There are many Italian restaurants in the North End and this is one of my favorites. Sometimes they are willing and able to make carbonara which is a great perk for me. Other than that their food is good and hearty. If you have the opportunity, try their stuffed pork chops. Be aware that the plate will be a bit expensive, but still very good.
We live in the neighborhood and have tried dozens of the local Italian eateries. We visited Lucia this week and loved every second of the experience. The chef was standing next to our table, rolling salmon tortellini for the evening's special. It felt like we were in Italy and in the kitchen- as we watched him make pasta and enjoyed the delicious specials. The waiter was very attentive and kind and did not rush us out like other restaurants in the neighborhood tend to do. The portions were large and it was delicious. The manager Frank greeted us when we left and told us a little more about the restaurant. Overall, a great North End, Little Italy experience, highly recommend for locals and tourists!
From the second we arrived the service was outstanding. We were seated mind you with three kids 16, 11, and 3. The 3 yr old was in a stroller that the owner personally set aside for us as we were seated. We sat down upstairs and the gentleman who waited on us was very good with all of us. Then as he left others came to make sure you had plenty of bread and refreshing drinks. We ordered an appetizer that came out very quickly and the food was so so amazing it's not your Olive Garden or run of the mill usual Italian food it's authentic and delicious. Honestly would recommend to anyone who loves good food and hospitality. Thank you for a great experience. Oh and happy 40th anniversary.

Excellent restaurant with fantastic service. Got us right in on a busy Saturday evening, very accommodating with our stroller and many bags from our purchases of the day. Food was great and came very quickly. Never wanted for anything the wait staff was always right there with whatever we needed. Great experience!!!
We had a wonderful meal here this evening with first class service from Christian and the whole team. Highly recommend as a North End restaurant!
Excellent service, delicious food and a very pleasant setting. We shared their antipasto and it was beautifully presented, good quality meats and cheese and a very delicious and unusual eggplant in olive oil. The selection of some dishes from the Abruzzo region was a nice option.Good selection on the wine list.
Very prompt drink refills and candle replacements! One of the servers or waiters was personally going to each table and thanking every group for coming in and dining with them. Fantastic food and fantastic atmosphere
About as "user-friendly" as you could want. Great food especially for us that are a bit sensitive to gluten. Stephanie gets 5 stars all by herself!
The service was incredible! Everyone was so attentive, and our server (Pedro) was the friendliest server I've ever had. Pricing is pretty much the lowest for the area, and the food is delicious. Highly recommend.
