Visited Sunday lunchtime and had the shared Sunday Roast. Warning its not for couples with small appetites. Really well cooked with good veg and roasties. Nice amount of beef, chicken and pork belly. Also tried a couple of desserts which were excellent. Restaurant was bright and clean with attentive but not overwhelming staff. Service was good and prompt

Second time visiting York, first time visiting this restaurant. We absolutely love York and we were looking forward to visiting this restaurant due to the amount of gluten free options. My wife is celiac and the gluten free menu was perfect. First impressions of the restaurant were really good. The decor was great and most importantly the food was very impressive. The one thing that let this place down was the length of time waiting to be served and waiting for our food to arrive. 20 minutes waiting for our order to be taken, 30 minutes until our starter arrived and then another 40 minutes until our main arrived. This was such a shame as the food itself was very nice but the waiting time let it down.

Excellent service even though the restaurant was VERY busy. The staff were really attentive and friendly. We were served quickly with the drinks order taken as soon as we sat down. We shared a salmon gravlax starter which was delicious and big enough to share. Our main courses did not disappoint either- the beetroot risotto and Dover dole with gnocchi were absolutely fantastic. Overall we had a lovely meal and were impressed with the price too! We will definitely be returning next time we visit York.

Took 21mins for the staff to come over and take our order! Very slow service...... The main was a big disappointment! I get pork belly wherever I go and soon as I noticed on menu I instantly went for it, however when it arrived the bottom was that tough I had leave most of the meat aside and just eat the top! Would go again for drinks but not food!

Lucia's has a lovely setting in the Arcade with outside seating and decor that is stylish and colourful. I had been going for years and recently went with a family of eight to celebrate a birthday. We were so disappointed in the setting as we were in a dark ,badly lit area. Used phones to read the menu. The food and wine was very expensive, with small food portions and not worth the money. I had a chicken burger which was dry ,over cooked with a chicken bone, with a small portion of hard chips.{Frozen } Tasteless. Overpriced. Mac Donald's might have been a better choice. All of us waited ages for our food . Will not return anytime soon. We all agreed in the group.

Four of us visited on a Wednesday evening, we had been for drinks before but our first time dining. We were greeted and we asked if we could have a particular table outside which had just been vacated, the table was promptly relaid and were seated and served drinks. Food was great and our waiter Mike looked after us very well throughout the evening, a great member of staff. Reasonably priced for the quality and surroundings will recommend and visit again when next in York.

Went here at last minute decision glad we did! We were shown to a table straight away and given menus, the young lady serving us was friendly she came back 10 mins later but as I had not decided she went away and returned at a later time, we ordered olives & breads selection as starters which was beautiful, then carbanarra for mains for me was fantastic the best I've tried! Hubby had roast pork belly with mash & cabbage he said it was lovely, I ordered the candy floss cocktail while hubby had red wine, and then we had tiramasu which was v good and light but could do with more alcohol as I couldn't taste any, the restaurant is split over two areas all very nicely decorated really clean with happy & helpful staff. All the food looked really nice. Quite expensive but worth it as I always say you get what you pay for! Hope to return another day when back in york.

York has some amazing places to eat and drink in 2024 so competition is fierce . Lucia is tucked away in a quiet courtyard not too far from the Minster and has a lovely urban chic vibe to it . You can dine al fresco in the courtyard (as I did) ; by the bar or in the main part of the restaurant . The service is very attentive and I didn’t have to wait despite the restaurant being fairly busy . For once this summer the weather was on my side and dining al fresco was possible after a lovely day at York races . There is a good selection of Italian dishes on offer here . The quality is good . I was really impressed with the Calamari which I often use as a benchmark of quality since they are easy to get wrong in the cooking . The spaghetti Carbonara was delicious ; and I have just returned from Rome where the dish originated and this was excellent . The same can be said also for the tiramisu. The service is complimented by a wonderful wine selection and if you are really in the mood for a lavish celebration , they have an excellent range of champagnes as well . Belissimo! Tutto Benne

Visited with my husband for some drinks in the upstairs area and was served by Harry. He was very attentive to us and he is an asset to the Lucia team.Overall, our drinks was spectacular as usual, as we visit everytime we visit York. Delicious cocktails. Didn’t have food this time, but every time we go the food is always spectacular. The upstairs area is such a nice place to drink, very modern and very comfortable.Once again, a positive experience at Lucia.

My wife and I were a little disappointed by the fact that none of the staff wore masks, and indeed we were told we could take our masks off as they were no longer required. We didn't take ours off when we were walking around the restaurant. The décor is very nice and there was a nice atmosphere in there. the menu is varied with lots of nice Italian dishes on. The service was good. The food was nice, but my wife found the risotto and beef to be too salty.

On a weekend trip to York for my boyfriend’s birthday and booked Lucia’s for dinner. They rang ahead earlier in the day just to check everything was okay with our booking. Absolutely gorgeous place inside and out, really lovely atmosphere! Service was absolute 10/10 as well, staff were so attentive and helpful. I’d never thought to mention anything when booking or ordering about being pregnant, but the girl serving us was lovely enough to notice and ask, and let the kitchen know to make sure everything I’d ordered was okay for me to eat! Honestly thought it was so thoughtful of her and she was absolutely lovely with us the whole evening. Food was amazing too, would definitely recommend the Lucia platter. Was really happy to find they had a nice little selection of mocktails too, as it’s something I’ve found a lot of restaurants don’t seem to bother with.Actually couldn’t fault any part of it, gorgeous place, lovely attentive staff and amazing food!

One night stay in York but managed to find this pretty restaurant. It occupies indoors and outdoors through a twisting passageway that adds to its ambience.The staff couldn't do enough to help and inform. My husband and I had lovely baked Brie starters and my daughter Calamari. Grandson age 3 loves bread and enjoyed a selection eating it all ! Main courses - a beautiful salmon steak with , daughter linguine pasta with prawns and squid added at her request . Grandson child's pasta and meatballs. Husband had a rib-eye steak cooked perfectly and he said one of the best he has eaten. We all cleared our plates. Couldn't resist desserts. Fabulous sticky toffee pudding enjoyed and for myself a lovely light Italian cake.I would definitely visit again.

We're fans of Lucia's calzone, packed with chicken, pesto and creamy mascarpone cheese, this is the one to beat. Lots of other delicious tit bits to try such as rosemary and garlic flatbread, chicken liver pate' and tasty pastas to name a few of their popular items. Give their strawberry daiquiri a try - I also always enjoy their virgin pina colada. Hey, they also offer skinny cocktails! Who knew.....

Whilst shopping in York , we decided to have our evening meal out. I fancied Italian and my wife remembered Lucia was a favourite of her sisters , so went there. We were seated in the courtyard seating area and although the seating was very close together we didn't mind. We ordered our drinks and food and the starters arrived within 15 minutes. I had the mussels in white sauce and my wife has the tomato and mozzarella salad. Both were delicious and looked amazing. Then it went down hill ! It was very busy , with food being brought out all the time and we commented on how lovely it looked but where were our main courses. After waiting a while my wife noticed our waitress telling the manager that we hadn't had our main meals. The manager dashed off to the kitchen area but nobody said anything to us. Eventually we got our meals 50 minutes after we finished our starters. The young waitress was very apologetic but the manager seemed to avoid us. My wife's salmon looked good but my meal of meat balls and couscous was luke warm and the pesto yogurt dressing was replaced by sour cream. I complained to the waitress , who offered to get me another meal but I'd waited too long for this one ,so ate what I could. Again the waitress spoke to the manager and were told that 20% would be knocked off our bill and free coffee afterwards. Once again the manager didn't do her job and avoided us. I paid the bill without having the coffee and thanked our waitress , who was lovely and kept apologising. Doubt we'll go back , which is a shame.

We visited last night a party of 4. We waiting 45 mins to be seated which was fine to be expected on a Saturday night when we hadn't booked. Ended up spending 60 in the bar upstairs before our table was ready. We all had starters which were lovely. All had mains the steaks weren't perfect but again OK. We all had puddings. So we spent a lot of money. I ordered the lemon tart and asked for it with ice cream. They'll be a charge for that.... Erm OK. Puddings were lovely then the bill came bearing in mind we'd spent a lot of money they had charged us £2.50 on top of the £6 dessert for one blob of ice cream. It should have been an extra £1 at most. Really put me off the place.

Came back to Lucia’s after a great meal early on in the year.. my wife and I even got the same table as last time, couldn’t believe our luck!!! We carefully looked through the menu and then our waitress came to take the order. Firstly asking what drinks we would like and making some great 2 for 1 suggestions on cocktails. Then she asked what food we would like, which I then asked her ... is it ok if I have a sandwich and side of chips off the 12-4pm menu please? She asked me what time is it? I checked my phone and replied.. 4.02..... Sorry said the waitress it’s too late, we are very strict on that. What the.. WOW!!! 2 minutes late.. silly me if i’d of ordered the food first then all would of been ok. If it wasn’t for the daggers off the Mrs I would of been tempted to challenge the 2 minutes (I’m learning). Anyway after a couple more minutes, sipping my elderflower lemonade and counting to 10, I did start to relax and then ordered the spicy chicken and sausage pasta dish. The food was beautiful and did I eat it all up.. and now when I go out I get there early.

Pizzaen var stensovnsbakt og en i følget spiste en stor velsmakende biff, dog med noen slintrer. Alt til en hyggelig pris. Betjeningen ga hos service.

Really upset to have to leave a bad review but so disappointed! Get the same dish every time and come here regularly, never had a bad experience before always fantastic food but not this time! Maybe you need to avoid midweek as staff different.. who knows! But my (usually amazing) food came half the size to usual, we joked it was starter size and the usual creamy texture was so dry and tasteless. The fizzy drinks were flat and 1 side was forgotten. We then had to wait 20 mins for someone to take our plates and then arrive with the bill 10 minutes later not offering us a dessert. Complained about food which we HATE doing and we got a small sorry but nothing offered. Undecided on whether to give them another chance..

A friend has recommended Lucia to me. I visited them.once for afternoon tea. And I decided to bring my visitor to Lucia for dinner this evening. The place was crowded and we were asked to wait at the wine bar for 15 to 20 mins. We just ordered our drinks were told that the table is ready. It was a nice corner next to the window. We decided to order 3 starters to share. We have the Garlic & Tomato Flatbread, Mozzarella with tomatoes and pesto, Hand rolled meat balls. Our server, Rosa, noted that we were sharing so she gave us small plates. Rosa was very friendly and nice throughout the meal.

What a lovely hidden place, in a small courtyard off a cobbled street, lovely food and staff, they have outdoor heating and blankets for outside, you can also eat inside, upstairs is a bar, seating and a small dancefloor in the evening, very clean, and the prices were very good, lovely place.

Food very nice, felt a little rushed though ( we were there close to closing though). Had Pizza and pasta both really tasty. Friendly staff - very apologetic when they locked me in the annexe as they didn’t realise I was still in there - it was very funny....

Spotted this delightful restaurant when walking around the city centre, it was very busy for a Saturday! We asked if we could book but unfortunately they don’t take bookings on a Saturday. Nevertheless we were advised to come before half 7 to avoid a wait. We are so glad we did when we arrived the place was full and stayed so busy through our meal!

My husband and I visited the Harrogate restaurant last year and we were blown away so when we arranged a girls visit for my friends 30th I knew this was a no brainer.

Visited Saturday lunch time, restaurant was busy, felt a bit let down by the slow service. Risotto way too salty

Party of four of us went for lunch mid-week. Look and feel of this restaurant very Italian,al fresco and quirky. Lunchtime dining is on the ground floor and outside of the restaurant, upstairs looks to be more bar orientated and club like. We arrived 12 noon and the restaurant was quite but by 1pm all tables were taken. Very good atmosphere.Excellent service throughout the meal, staff very attentive without being over bearing. We ordered selection of breads for four to start. Only four wedges of bread came, one each,which was dissapointing. I ordered Lasagne, it tasted OK but did not present well and was served with a few bits of watercress. Others ordered a pasta dish,meat skewer and salad nicoise. All ate what was put before them but we all felt that the food and presentation was average and unremarkable. The toilets were situated upstairs which if you were infirm would be difficult to get too. I did not ask if there were more on the ground floor.

We visited Lucia’s for the 2nd time last night and really enjoyed the food yet again. Leah, our waitress, was very welcoming.

La detuve para tomar un café después de una comida en otro lugar de York, y nos atrajo el tema italiano que tiene este lugar. Incluso tuve una conversación con la camarera en italiano! Definitivamente voy a venir aquí en el verano con mis hijos. Les encantarían los pasteles y el chocolate caliente.

Vine el año pasado con mi madre y fue maravilloso, así que mi compañero, que nunca ha estado en York, ¡hasta ahora lo ha querido!

Súper pequeño restaurante escondido, ciertamente podría estar en Italia, buena comida a buen precio, servicio también bueno, inconveniente es posible que tenga que esperar y hacer cola durante el período del almuerzo, especialmente si es un buen día ya que tienen un patio encantador, pero vale la pena la espera!

Fui a comer con mi novio y tuve una comida absolutamente deliciosa, exquisita pasta. Pero sobre todo el servicio que recibimos de nuestra camarera, Jade, fue insuperable. Felizmente regresaría al restaurante solo para ver a Jade nuevamente. No podría recomendar más! ! !

El escenario de este lugar es lo que lo vende. El encantador comedor exterior, que se siente bastante privado con calentadores de patio, te hace sentir como si estuvieras de vacaciones sin importar el clima. El servicio es bueno como es la opción de menú. Para una familia de 4 con 1 bebida, 1 comida principal y 1 postre, cada uno cuesta 85 solo para darle una idea del costo. Sin embargo, la comida en sí está bien, he tenido mejor pero también peor, creo que la comida es un poco sosa si soy sincera pero definitivamente vale la pena una visita.

Six of us called in for evening meal, we shown to our table by a lovely young lady. Everyone said hello as we walked through. The drinks menu has something for everyone from soft drink to ipa, cocktail and virgin cocktails. Lots on the food menu, usual pizza and pasta dishes, but we opted for beef skewer and chicken, pancetta and mushrooms skewer, they were beautiful very tasty.

We visited on what you would expect to be a quiet Wednesday night; however, it was rammed to the rafters!

We were served by Soufyane who was the perfect host - smart, extremely friendly and totally professional. The food (we opted for the two-course lunch) was superb: fresh ingredients, beautifully prepared and served. We had a glass of red wine which complemented the food perfectly.

Unfortunately did not have a great experience here due to mistakes that could have been avoided, we booked a table for a work celebration there was about 20 of us, we preordered based off the menu online. I had preordered penne marinara from their online menu, as I am from England I understood that this was just a tomato pasta sauce, and there is nothing on their online menu to suggest marinara is seafood, however I received a penne pasta with tomato sauce and seafood. My sister is allergic to seafood and I don’t eat it to keep her safe. I told them I didn’t order seafood penne, he became angry and shouted at me that I did, I asked to see the menu when he showed me, that’s when we all realised their online menu is different to the one in the restaurant, he brought me a menu to say marinara is seafood, but this is not mentioned on the online menu we used when we preordered, and unfortunately being English and not being Italian, marinara in England is just tomato garlic sauce not seafood like it is in Italy, my fault for not knowing marinara means seafood in Italian but the manager or owner who was serving us just began shouting at me. A female waitress apologised and moved him away from me and brought me just a tomato penne pasta said sorry again and understood what had happened and fixed the issue without an issue, clearly a mistake on both parts. After I’d eaten it the angry manager came over and asked me how my seafood pasta was sarcastically. 3 or 4 of us preordered the online menu tomato garlic bread to start, and one of us ordered a tomato garlic bread for their main. But when it arrived in the restaurant it was a plain garlic pizza bread, as their menu in their restaurant is different to the one online and doesn’t include tomato. Also despite pre ordering two of the starters were missing and had to be chased up 10 mins or so after we had all eaten our starters and the same happened again for our mains, two were missing and a side of chips which we had to chase up. We spent about £582 and just didn’t feel we had a good experience despite pre ordering and we even brought our pre order on a document with us to make sure we were organised when we got there. Food was excellent however and we had a good time. Just a shame to be shouted at in a restaurant by the manager at what clearly was a genuine mistake, as I don’t speak Italian.

3 course dinner for Restaurant week (basically it equate to a free drink with the offer). All of the food was prepared and served beautifully and tasted amazing.
