I love the way the Veal Parmesan medallions, and the way they were covered with Parmesan and mozzarella cheese that was smoked. The smoked mozzarella was amazing. The lighting was just fine. The seating was comfortable and the owner of the restaurant came over a couple times to see how we were doing. In addition to that, the service was great. read more

Probably my favorite thing is the amount of delicious Italian bread, focaccia and little appetizers they give you before you even order. Very generous and sets you up for a great dinner. The food was super tasty and the service is impeccable. Highly recommend! read more

Beautiful ambiance. Love the decor. Staff were very attentive and accommodating. Had the linguine with clams and it was delicious. Linguine was cooked perfectly (Al dente.) Loved the bread with small antipasto plate that came for free before the meal. Also got the seafood platter for two. The clams lobster and shrimp were good, but the main disappointment was the oysters and crab - they didn't seem like the best quality and didn't taste great. Couldn't eat the crab. It's probably best to go to a seafood restaurant for a raw bar. But would go back for more pasta and other dishes! Also had the chocolate lava cake for dessert which was delicious. read more

Brunch was a disaster - the filet of sole was overcooked, dry, and fishy. What they call a bloody Mary, was alcohol, spices, and water. Even the Pasta Bolognese was relatively tasteless, although what little pasta there was, was properly cooked. The ambience, the place was quite nice, and the staff is very polite and accommodating. Unfortunately, service is extremely slow, because they are too busy. Even delivery of the entrées took about an hour. My friends ordered chicken, piccata, and chicken franchise, but they looked identical. read more

A white tablecloth indoor & outdoor seating Italian/Mediterranean restaurant and bar. Quiet & comfortable you can imagine Youre imagine you're in Italy , Sicily and Mediterranean coast as a refreshing breeze blows in through the open glass wall. The service is excellent and easy,; the ambiance is wonderful. The food is very fine quality and prepared perfectly. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!! read more

I'll start with the good because it is so short: the space is very nice, some of the entrees tasted pretty good - but only the entree itself, not the side dishes served on the plate with the entree. So about 15 percent of the food was any good. The space was well lit and attractive however. The pasta was a joke, like college cafe style joke. I'd get better pasta at noodles (a Midwest chain) than this "fine dinning" establishment. And there is the other key mistake, this is not a fine dining establishment, and they should not have advertised as such. They claim it is unfair to compare them to Cafe Alaia, why then did they open right down the street? But they are correct, the other similar offerings on the street are simply worlds better. This spot can not compete in a sentence with them. The side dishes were undercooked, veggies inedible and the fries had so much truffle oil as to be inedible. Do not go here, maybe whatever replaces it will be better. Oh, and it took hours to get the crappy food with a wait staff that did not care at all. They need all new staff, all new kitchen, and someone should teach the management and ownership what fine dining is. Least I forget, the service was by far the worst part. After nearly an hour the server finally returned to our table to explain the meat and cheese plates we ordered off the menu we're taking so long because, and I quote, "we do not know how to make them, you are the first to order". I encouraged them not to admit such foolishess in the future...if a restaurant can not make a meat and cheese plate, if they have not practiced their own menu 6 weeks from hard open, well they are not much of a restaurant now, are they? The service continues to get worse as it became obvious we were unhappy, no attempt.to rectify was made, save comping a drink they served that we had not ordered (because they could not recall who was drinking what, of course) read more

Lucia's - Tiramisu - Italian Near Me - Scarsdale, New York

Lucia's is in the former Via Forno space. This space was formerly a seven 11 convenience store. The look and feel of the restaurant post renovation is actually fairly impressive as I found it warm and comfortable. The food and especially the service really needs some work and improvement. Food quality and preparation is what I would call just ok. Whether it was the bruschetta or the main courses- it was fine but nothing special or memorable. In a busy field of Italian restaurants in the area you need to do something to stand out from the crowd and Lucia's did nothing special from this perspective. Service was below par- first course items were forgotten, special descriptions were unknown.... Splitting a check in two with a partial cash payment seemed perplexing. BTW- The French fries and cheesecake were both very good. Pricing is a bit on the high side and the location can be tricky but there is a huge Metro North parking lot right behind the restaurant. If I am going for Italian Food on Garth Rd. you have Cafe Alia and their small sub- restaurant Aperiti just a few doors away. Is there a compelling reason that you would go elsewhere? That will decide the success of this establishment. read more

Excellent service food and ambience, staff is very welcoming they make you feel home..

7/24- Party of 4 . We received a wonderful warm welcome from Alessandro and excellent & attentive service from Damiano & Maria. The food was DELICIOUS. Our dishes included Beet Salad, Stuffed Hot Italian Peppers, Pasta Fruitti Di Mare, Ravioli Di Ricotta, and scrumptious Cannolis just to name a few....The staff couldn't do enough for us. Perfect setting and beautifully decorated restaurant. Will definitely return! read more

I'd never been to Lucia's before so I didn't know what to expect. I was so happy that we tried it. The food was excellent, the ambience and the service were as well. I will definitely go back. Looking forward to having the homemade tiramisu again. read more

The food and the service were absolutely terrible. They should be ashamed for serving steak. That's not cooked well at that kind of price. Everything tasted terrible. read more

Expecting brunch menu as shown on website and was only offered main pasta dishes. My daughter made the resy for Mother's Day expecting the brunch menu and was very disappointed. Perhaps make a note of it on the website? read more

Everything! Decor really nice and walking in we anticipated a lovely experience. Instead the service was snail slow, the food was mediocre, and we sat with empty glasses and finished meals for at least 45 minutes. Would not recommend or return. read more

We've been to Lucia's twice and both times had a great dinner. The food is excellent. I highly recommend the Shrimp Scampi. The service was good, but clearly the staff is all new so they are going through a learning curve. They are attentive, but need a tad more experience. Lucia's redo looks great. White table clothes. Lots of space. Tables are not on top of each other. You can actually hear the people at your table. You'd never know Lucia's was the former home of 7-Eleven! Go. You'll be glad you did. read more

Great service and great food!!! We will be returning for sure :) staff was extremely kind and hospitable

I made a reservation ( I went in person to make it and discuss the menu) for a luncheon at 1:00. I called that our party was running late and was told they canceled my reservation. Never notifying me. First they said they had kitchen problems. Then they said they were never open for lunch and then the guy was SO RUDE and just hung up on me I tried calling back but he kept sending me to an answering machine. Welcome to town. If this is how you handle you reservations and treat your customers. You're not long for Scarsdale. To Muscato's it is. Should have planned it there to begin with read more

The cadence of courses for our meal was all off- we were at a small table and we were not done with our appetizers when our entrees came and there was no room for both dishes on the table. We were at the restaurant for less than an hour when at least 5 waiters came by every two minutes to ask to clear our plates when more than half my entree was still on the plate uneaten. This was an incredibly uncomfortable dinner and we felt like they were kicking us out after an hour for Saturday night dinner. Worst experience to date at a restaurant in Scarsdale. read more

The ravioli was wonderful. Very kind and attentive staff. A great addition to the village scene.

I recently wrote a review about this restaurant, but after my experience today, I've decided to delete it and post this update instead.When my food was served, I noticed a black hair on top of my chicken . I sent the meal back and decided to order something else. Shortly after, the manager, Tony, approached me and asked how my meal was. When I told him there had been a hair in my food, he simply responded, "Oh well, it happens sometimes."I told him not to say that to me since that never happen to me before , and he then proceeded to say, "Well, what can you do? We try."I am disgusted and appalled by his response. Finding a hair is bad enough, but the manager's complete lack of professionalism and accountability is unacceptable. I now perfectly understand why this restaurant has such poor reviews. I will not be returning. One thing is to find a hair in your food, but it's another to have your concerns dismissed like that. read more

We had a nice time and food was fine but lots of misfires. Pasta was cold and overcooked. Food came out cold, I think the plates should be warmed. Bolognese was tasty, cacio Pepe meh. Veal scallopine was tasty enough. Grilled Brussels sprouts tasted like the electric broiler. We thought we'd get comped a dessert but instead it was the thinnest slice of key lime pie I've ever been served. Menu is too big. Atmosphere very nice and I hope they fix the problems. read more

Terrible service, manager is rude and doesn't seem to care. Food was mediocre at best. Owners are not Italian and clearly have no restaurant experience. Do not recommend. read more

I'm writing this review mainly to warn other customers to carefully check their bill and the amounts charged for each item. My first experience at this restaurant was about two months ago, shortly after it opened. At that time, the reviews were quite bad, but we actually had a good experience. Wanting to support a local business, I made a point of leaving a 5-star review. Unfortunately, our second visit yesterday was completely different. I could start by mentioning that we waited several minutes to be served, watching servers looking confused and walking back and forth without direction. I could also mention that the Chilean seabass I ordered was clearly not the fish that was served. Even with these issues, I probably would not have changed my overall rating. However, what happened with the bill and payment left us truly shocked. The check included an extra item (Pellegrino water) that we did not order or consume. We asked for it to be removed and handed over our card for payment. The server returned with a receipt that still included the incorrect item. We asked again for the charge to be canceled and corrected. At that point, the owner stepped in. He did remove the extra item -- but instead redistributed the amount across the other items on the bill, increasing each price. For example, a $42 dish was charged as $43.86, and the same adjustment was made to all items. This is unacceptable. Practicing this kind of behavior feels like outright dishonesty, especially in such a high-end neighborhood. I strongly recommend that anyone dining here carefully reviews their bill before paying read more

we dined here last week. my wife made the reservation. I looked it up on yelp and the reviews weren't good. my wife insisted and I'm glad she did. we were seated immediately and got menus. the waiter was pleasant. the service was fine. the food was good. the owner came to our table multiple times. I would definitely go back. read more

Food was mediocre. Chicken with broccoli rabe was overcooked and the chicken was tasteless. Caesar salad was fine but no anchovies available. Branzino was acceptable but nothing special. Pizza oven was also not working. Service was equally bad with dirty plates sitting on the table for a while before cleared. Owner/manager seemed disinterested and never stopped by to ask how dinner was. Not acceptable. read more

I wanna start by saying I am very particular with my food, I ordered the short ribs, we also had the clams, Calamari and stuffed pepper for appetizers, everything was delicious. We had cheesecake for dessert, it was so fresh & tasted amazing! I would definitely give this place a try. It's fairly new. Definitely give it a try. read more

We knew we may wait a few extra minutes as it was a new restaurant.but never thought this long. We were seated by 6:45 and at 8:30 we still did not even have an appetizer then the Waiter came over stating that one of the entrées was not available, but he didn't know which entrée was not available and forgot what we ordered . I went to the manager, who literally walked away by 9:30 we left we were a party of seven only three got appetizers the other four of us never received our appetizers. I went back over to the Manager and he couldn't even care I even said to him you should've walked over after an hour and apologized that you're backed up and you can't accommodate us. Don't open a restaurant with half a staff and book it to full capacity knowing you can't service the people and two of the waiters don't even understand what you're saying and can't communicate. Very disappointing . read more

We understand this place is new and as an ex-restaurant owner where we sat 250 people at one time--if I had "newly opened" issues, as an owner, I would have done better. 1) We asked after 25 minutes where our meals were, and advised by the owner they forgot to fire them up--when it came out, it was a bit cold and rather than do what I would do, the owner seemed to avoid our table to ask if it was OK later on and shrugged off our answer. There was a load of help, that did more running around than taking care of the tables they served. The cushioned chairs lacked cushions and eating with elbows below the table was uncomfortable--but the owner had a great excuse for that and advised others love the chairs. We waited for the check for too long, and we had an order to take out advising our waiter no meat due to that person was a vegetarian, when opened the next day, it came with sausage which was thrown out. As an owner if an order was "not fired up," ( which never happened to me) I would have asked the table if they wanted a pizza on the house and invited them back--or at least desert on the house when the three meals were served rather than ask after advising the food was cold "but did it taste good" by the owner. The food was OK but even on the cold side -- it could be better. I am sure this will be corrected. There are so many Italian Restaurants in the area, let us hope if we visit again, this will not happen. read more
