Lucca - Sacramento

Had a great experience here. The service was not to be transferred, offered great informed advice when asked between two meals and was very courteous and friendly during the meal. The food was excellent! Drinks were also great. Amazing selection of vegan and vegetarian options. Very impressed by this place.

This place is wonderful. It was like an oasis from the hot weather. We ate lunch, a group of 4... a couple of Filipino girls who were here for culinary training at Squaw valley, myself(Sous Chef, and trained in the art). We wanted to eat something delicious and yet within the budget... this place not only accomplished those traits, but it also was welcoming and friendly and fun. We decided to share our food, we orders Parmesan fries as an appetizer, it came with black truffle aïoli(which I admit was a great touch on the spelling) which was absolutely delicious. You can also get different styles of small plates like mussels, roasted asparagus, and marinated olives straight from California, and some delicious looking salads. But I needed something more than just a salad or a sandwich, especially after a day of taking in the sites! So the girls ordered a chicken sandwich that was supposed to be cut in half, but they were so nice enough to cut it into quarters! Ok I work in the industry and that is a rockstar move right there. That means that the waiter was relaying and communicating with the chefs about the table. They also went for the spaghetti and meatballs! Which were huge; at least baseball sized. And the sauce was sweet and yet hearty. And the fiancé and I went for the cioppino, and I must say it was delightful. The bread and croutons were delicious when dipped into the flavorful sauce! And while I went to sneak in to pay the check and to wash my hands, the woman of my dreams ordered a delicious chocolate cake that had a light dollop of whipped cream with crunchy toffee bits. Drizzled with chocolate sauce and a raspberry cooli. So decadent. And don’t forget to tip in cash!!!! Taxation is theft. Overall it was an amazing experience. Oh and my cocktail was the red sangria, and a true one that was light and yet flavorful. Thanks for reading!

Dined here a little over a year ago with a group a fantastic woman on a guided food tour. Beautiful inside location, also offers outside patio seating. The menu was very unique and the food was very exotic with the presentation. And delicious! Is a place that we were told many famous people have visited over the years.

This is a really nice place to eat in the evening! They got either a nice patio or a dining room you could eat in! The service was really nice and pretty relaxed! The atmosphere was very relaxing, especially with the nice dark wood ceiling and candle lights. The light bulbs stringing around might have been a little to excessive, but the 2 small fountains is what really made the difference! For starters, i ordered the zucchini chips which were a pretty healthy alternative to regular chips! I had the burger for the main entree and it was cooked pretty well and everything from the bun to the lettuce felt fresh and crisp! The fries were salted and seasoned as well! I would come back here if i was in the Sacramento area for dinner! Hopefully they'll keep up their really good service and freshen up the menu!

The food was okay overall. We found out the mussels were over a week old though. That was a bummer. The waitress was accommodating and took it off our bill without us asking. Service was on point. Food cake out fast. I will note that the kids spaghetti meatball was a larger portion at $7 than the pappardelle at $18. The spaghetti was a bit bland but salt pepper helped to fix that.
