    Casa Luca was located right next to our hotel. Every time we passed by it, my boyfriend and I would jokingly say that we'll end up trying it since it's hard to miss. The day came today when we wanted to get a late dinner. We had dinner at Casa Luca around 10pm on a Friday night. The place wasn't super busy, but there were guests coming in around the same time as us. The restaurant felt cozy and romantic. Traditional, classic Italian restaurant vibes. Food came out in a timely manner. Maybe because the restaurant was going to close in an hour, we had the quickest experience of our meal during our stay in Paris. Food came out less than 10 minutes after we ordered. I had the Don Vito Spritz, which was recommended to me by the waitress. The drink was refreshing, and I liked the melon aftertaste. So different. For my entrée I had the octopus salad, and it was delicious. It had pieces of grilled octopus with roasted potatoes on a bed of baby spinach. This was such a great dish and perfect for a light late-night snack that I was looking for. The octopus was grilled well, and its texture of it was perfect. I loved the pesto used as the dressing. My boyfriend had the pasta pomodoro. I had the pleasure of trying some, and we both agreed that this dish brought freshness. I could tell that the linguini was made in-house, and it was nicely al dense with a bite to it. The sauce tasted like someone just picked tomatoes from the garden. Heads up, this place is a total tourist trap. We asked for still water, thinking we were going to get regular tap water. We were charged 15€ for a glass bottle of Evian.

    Tourist trap. Bad wine. I had cork in my wine. That's a no no in a country that is known for its wine.

    Carpaccio of beef with black truffle shavings.  Very good if you like truffles and add some salt.

    I was here on a slow (holiday) evening so I can't speak to the service speed issues others have reported when it's crowded. My service was just fine. Is it touristy? Definitionally yes - you can throw a rock to the Arc de Triomphe and stroll just a few steps to the Champs Elysees. What I like about this place is its off-Champs-Elysees attitude (think: off broadway). It's not the tourist hustle joint that is the Deauville or L'Alsace on the Champs. Instead it's a fairly touristy, pretty good food, and very good service place that's quite conveniently located. Sorry to be so psychological here but there is a real difference (I wouldn't set foot in the Deauville). The carpaccio with black truffles was great. The lasagna was very good. The bread was great but hey it's France. The service was very good. Compared to what else is around I'd stop here anytime.

    2 stars for the food. 0 star for the Terrible Service. It seems like no one has given a review of this place for a while..... well... for all of you from the USA..... don't waste your time going here. It's located just at the next street of Champs Elysees. We just happen to be walking by and we thought.... alright.... the menu looks ok. First off all.... it's not cheap. 25 Euros for a pizza, entrees are between 30 to 45 Euros. Their food is okay. We had the Pizza Luca, the Ravioli with mushrooms & Meat, and the Ossobuco. I don't recommend the ossobuco - it's was hard, dry, and bland, plus the bone is not served with the meat. What's the point? Second.... the service is terrible. No one came to our table for 15 minutes since seated, considering they were serving the table of 2 who were seated next to our table who were obviously local since they were speaking fluent French. Most of their waitress does not speak English - there was the 2. Maybe they were waiting for those 2 to come and get our orders. It took a while - seriously, I started to think that they were prejudice against us. But I think, they just don't have a concept of customer service. It's like..."you want to eat here... you wait"! No smiles, no apology for the wait, just plain rude. For the 3 dishes that I mentioned, the bill came out to 98 Euros..... not cheap! No drinks even, just a bottle of water. I don't recommend anyone here.... don't waste your time and money... plus you'll get super frustrated at end of your meal. Eat somewhere else. And oh..... they have never heard of Yelp!

    Great balance between location, food quality, service kindness and budget. I will recommend it rather than going on the Champs Élysées

When we told the server that there was a rat all he said was "this is Paris" we asked if he could move it and he said "no, this is Paris don't worry." If it was just Paris we wouldn't have had other parisians in the restaurant being freaked out about. I get it we are Americans and aren't used to it, but not even putting the rat outside after we asked them to is awful. We stayed at the restaurant although we shouldn't have. The food took an hour and a half to come out, and the server was pretty awful. Typical for Paris but even worse than usual. The prices were outrageous and the food did not taste good whatsoever. Highly don't recommend this place if you value a good atmosphere without eating next to rats. French translation: Nous sommes venus dîner dans ce restaurant, situé juste en face de notre hôtel. À peine installés, tout semblait aller bien jusqu'à ce qu'un rat apparaisse à nos pieds. Lorsque nous l'avons signalé au serveur, il s'est contenté de répondre : " Ici, c'est Paris. " Nous lui avons demandé de le déplacer, et il a rétorqué : " Non, c'est Paris, ne vous inquiétez pas." Si c'était un rat typiquement parisien, les autres clients du restaurant ne s'en seraient pas inquiétés. Je comprends que nous soyons Américains et que nous n'y soyons pas habitués, mais refuser de sortir le rat après notre demande est inadmissible. Nous sommes restés au restaurant, à tort. L'attente pour les plats a été d'une heure et demie, et le service était exécrable. Typique de Paris, mais pire que d'habitude. Les prix étaient exorbitants et la nourriture absolument immangeable. Je déconseille fortement cet endroit si vous appréciez une ambiance agréable sans avoir à dîner à côté de rats.

We loved the service, attentive, friendly, answering lots of questions. Good wine list. Overall, somewhat expensive, but it's Paris. The carpaccio of beef was great as was the spinach ravioli with truffles. The only "miss" here was that the black truffles seemed to lack power and flavor which they sometimes do. I am not a truffle expert, but sometimes they pack a lot of very good punch and sometimes you can barely taste them, and in this case it was the latter. Feel like we got head-faked into the truffle menu and might have been better off on the regular one. Suggest: smell the truffles when they show them to you and if it's not fairly overpowering, then don't order. The bellinis were fanastic on the other hand. Overall, I'd definitely come back if I want a fancy Italian meal not far from the Champs Elyseees.

    We stopped by this place our first night in Paris less than a half hour prior to their closing…read moretime. They were closed the following day (Sunday) so we were somewhat surprised to be greeted warmly and shown to a table which they made up for us. We were given a couple of menus, and told by our waiter in a nice way that the clock was ticking for the kitchen so we quickly chose a couple of pizzas and a bottle of wine. Having worked in kitchens before, I know first hand that latecomers are not the most welcome by the kitchen staff when they are trying to clean up and get out to enjoy their evening and the following day off. The food was wonderful, pizza dough was crispy, the toppings fresh in spite of the late hour, and the wine was excellent. Now the prices we have come to recognize in our first few days in Paris are pretty steep relative to Vancouver, which is saying something, but we feel we got our monies worth. One thing to remember in France when using a credit card is that you cannot add a tip on the machine, so bring cash with you to tip. If you add it to the bill on the machine the establishment gets the money not the person who waited upon you. Cash goes to them and them alone. We are leaving Paris in the morning and heading back to Fenice again this evening, a little earlier this time to enjoy their fine food one more time. Highly recommended from our first experience, here's hoping for a repeat. Bon appetit! VISIT #2 Ate here a second time while in Paris and were surprised that we were recognized upon our arrival and once again seated at the same table we had had a couple of evenings prior. I can only say that our second experience was even better than our first. Our food was outstanding, the service first class. We only wish we had more nights in Paris to sample more of the menu.

The restaurant did not disappoint. After delicious starters of eggplant, rocket and Parma ham we enjoyed scrumptious mains with veal, beef medallions, lamb and rhombus pasta all thoroughly enjoyed. The dinner was perfectly complimented with two Cabernet Sauvignons from different regions each uniquely delicious. Finished with a tasty selection of dessert and coffee. Service was excellent, and the atmosphere was relaxing and enjoyable with a nice ambiance from other guests. I can highly recommend this restaurant.
