Happy New Year from the staff at Lucca!
We hope everyone has a terrific 2026.
Hi Everyone-
A quick reminder:
Tonight is the first night of the East Village Holiday Promenade. With that in mind, you may want to come a little earlier than your reservation time to find parking, and also to enjoy the great shops in our neighborhood.
Happy Holidays!

If you haven’t been to Lucca in a while, you may have missed our new artwork.
What may surprise you is that the art is done by Lucca’s owner, Steve Logsdon.
Here’s a nice write up about Steve and his latest artistic endeavor.
A restaurateur pivots from palate to palette and launches his art career Steve Logsdon of Lucca is used to filling tables, but now his artistic menu features hues as well as flavors.
Reminder:
We are closed this evening (Friday, September 26) for a private event. We will resume our regular hours on Saturday, September 27.
Hello Lucca friends!

With the exception of the two days listed above, our hours remain:

A quick note from your friends at Lucca:

We will be open for both lunch and dinner on Thursday, July 3, and dinner on Saturday, July 5.
Hello friends!
We wanted to send out a friendly reminder about gift cards. Lucca only sells gift cards in person, not online.
If you are buying a card online, we cannot guarantee that it is valid.
Recently we have received a few gift cards from Giftly. This appears to be a legitimate site, but the cards need to be redeemed online through Giftly, as they are not affiliated with us.
We hope this eliminates any confusion.
Thanks!
Hello Lucca friends!
Just a heads up, Locust will be closing for Pridefest starting today, not June 6, as previously posted.
We are open during this time, but you may want to allow extra time to find parking.

For anyone who hasn't been to visit us yet, here are a couple of 360° photos to give you a feel for the space. You can either click and drag on the photos to change your view, or if viewing on a phone, move your phone to find a different POV.
We look forward to seeing you soon!

Hello Lucca friends!
We want to let you know that next weekend (June 6-8) is Pridefest in the East Village. We recommend parking at one of the East Village parking garages, and allowing a little extra time to get to the restaurant.
Below is a festival map, so you can see where roads will be blocked off.
As always, we look forward to seeing you!
