What to Order at LUCETI'S

Our menu is rooted in the traditions of Tuscan-style Italian cooking — hearty, flavorful, and made with care. While we encourage you to explore the full menu when you visit, here are some of the dishes our guests rave about.

Clam Chowder — Creamy yet surprisingly light, our clam chowder has caught more than a few guests off guard. It's rich without being heavy, and it's a perfect way to start your meal.

Cioppino — A classic San Francisco-style seafood stew with perfectly cooked shellfish and flaky fish in a flavorful broth. A house favorite for good reason.

Veal Scallopini — Done right, as one guest put it. Tender, well-seasoned, and true to the Italian tradition.

Pasta — From lunch to dinner, a bowl of our pasta is always a solid choice. Guests who come for lunch often pair it with our ham sandwich for a satisfying midday meal.

Chocolate Lava Cake — This is the dessert people can't stop talking about. Rich, warm, and intensely chocolatey — it's been called one of the best lava cakes around. Don't skip it.

And every meal begins with our complimentary warm bread, served the only way it should be — fresh from the oven.

At the Bar

The bar at LUCETI'S is a gathering spot in its own right. Regulars settle in, conversations flow, and our bartenders are happy to craft something special. The Espresso Martini has earned a loyal following — bold, well-balanced, and the perfect complement to an Italian dinner.

Whether you're waiting for a table or making the bar your destination for the evening, you're in good hands.
