Reviews summary

Lucchesi's restaurant presents a mixed bag of reactions. While some patrons were charmed by the attentive service and cozy atmosphere, others voiced strong dissatisfaction with the food quality and high prices. Highlights included a standout waitress, delightful veal dishes, and a warm ambiance perfect for special occasions. However, frequent complaints about overly sweet sauces and mediocre offerings cast a shadow over its reputation. Although a few customers praised particular dishes and emphasized a return visit, the consensus suggests seeking alternatives for better value and culinary experience, with recommendations for places like Kodiak and Sinclair gaining traction among diners.

What Cyndi H dislikes about Lucchesi's:

I was disappointed with the sauce because it was too sweet. We were overcharged for a bottle of wine because they did not have the one we requested and failed to inform us that the replacement was double the price. They claimed it was the same, but it turned out to be twice as expensive. View all feedback.

We visit this restaurant quite frequently and have never been let down. It definitely surpasses most other dining options in Pittsburgh.

I visited this wonderful restaurant with some friends, and I have to say, the food is incredible. The setting is intimate and charming, perfect for a fine dining experience. Be sure to make a reservation, though, or you might end up disappointed. While it can be on the expensive side, the quality of the dishes makes it worth it for a special evening with your partner or a small group. I tried the Lobster Romano, which was fantastic, and my wife had the filet mignon—she's already asking to come back for her birthday. Everything here is top-notch. A+!

The waitress went above and beyond to accommodate our one and three year old children. However, we were disappointed with the food as it did not meet our expectations. The pasta sauce was too sweet and the veal Romano did not resemble the picture on the menu. Additionally, there was no lump crab meat as advertised. Overall, we were unsatisfied with our dining experience. The price per person for dinner was between $50 and $100.

I celebrated my birthday dinner at this restaurant for the first time, and I have always wanted to go there. I ordered the veal and wine, while my wife got the chicken parmesan. Both dishes were excellent! The pasta and pasta sauce were also very sweet, which we loved and was probably the highlight of the meal for me. We arrived at 5 pm, so it wasn't crowded, allowing us to chat with the waitress about the menu. The atmosphere was pleasant and there was plenty of parking available. The prices were reasonable. I will definitely be returning when I am back in town.

I wanted to celebrate our anniversary with my husband. The food was phenomenal and they make a big margarita. My husband was fun to order a margarita. But it was good. The atmosphere is great as well as with low lighting and candles. It is a beautiful place, but is still on health give a kind of house like vibe. I recommend this restaurant.

Praise Romano! Oh, my, soooo delish. Sukkulent, perfectly cooked lobster with huge pieces of crab. Excellent. Service! It's pricey, but it's worth it. Get the Masfalda appetizer and order the Angel Hair Nest must order in advance.
