This is still one of my favorite places to dine on birthdays, annies and other special nights. You got good food, service all in a quaint building - with a back patio. A few things have changed over the years, though. They now have a small wine menu (the vast majority of wines offered by the bottle only; a few by-the-glass options), so no need to BYOB and pay that higher-than-usual $8 cork fee. The dinner menu really hasn't changed much since they opened in '07, however the prices have gone up and the portions are much, much smaller than before. My faves are still the sesame crusted ahi tuna ($29), scallops ($30) and free range chicken ($22). There are also a split salad and split entree fees, $3 and $5 respectively. read more

So each year around my birthday I am looking for a place to host my event. In the past I have had BIG events, where it dictates a private party room, but as I get older my group of friends gets smaller in size but closer in terms of relationship. So this year my group was going to be only 8 people. The perfect size for this restaurant. As when I called in to make reservations they said probably no more than 12. My birthday just happened to fall on one of the wettest weekends in Houston. Constant pouring down rain. My reservations was for 08:15 pm but literally everyone in my group was running late. I got there at 08:00 and my table was set for me. My next guess did not arrive until 08:40. But luckily, the remaining group arrived around 9 pm. The staff here was very understanding of the weather conditions and did not give me any grief about my table being empty for so long. This place is BYOB, duh, stated in the name. Our group brought almost a bottle per person just in case. They only charge a corkage fee of 5 dollars, for bottles they open so you can bring more just in case. They do provide ice buckets for chilled wines and the rest can sit on the table. This saves ALOT of money. As far as food went we started out with crab cakes and calamari for the table. Both dishes were good. As far as entrees we had a variety of the dry aged steak, this was one of the few places that cooked it correctly, medium rare. SUPERB. We also had the duck breast, which was a good sized portion and very flavorful. I had the pork chop myself and that thing was beastly in size and wonderful in taste. My gf had the tuna which was seared to perfection. The table shared a few plates of butternut squash and butternut squash risotto. We just ended up adding more butternut squash to the risotto. The serving sizes of all of the entrees were bigger than expected, which is a good thing. As far as dessert, our group had the chocolate brownie and the creme brulee. Both dishes were a good way to end the meal. The service was impeccable and made my birthday dinner a blast! read more

Great place and great service, ordered the carpaccio filet mignon, goat cheese apple salad and the HAGNER steak and everything was WONDERFUL!!!! read more

Lucio's has recently started serving lunch in addition to dinner. I was lucky enough to attend a little Yelp lunch here hosted by the lovely Patricia S. This was my first time to Lucio's and it was great! The parking is a bit tricky, small slanted spots on the side of the road, but the road isn't too small or busy, so it was all good. The service was pleasant and friendly without being too overbearing. The food was very good. My absolute favorite item of the meal was the appetizer spinach dip with homemade pita chips. I will be back if only for that alone! Delicious! I had the crab cake sandwich with apple slaw, which was good and a little spicy. The sweet potato fries were very good. Our table shared several desserts. The brownie was good and quite rich and was served with vanilla ice cream. There was also the crazy cupcake (as I have deemed it). The cupcake was a black bean and chocolate cupcake with parsnip frosting served on a tomato and cayenne sauce. I know that cupcakes were all the craze for a while, and I love cupcakes, but skip this one. I don't drink, but I find it interesting that this place is BYOB and has a wine list. Is that normal? As one of my dining companions pointed out, the wine list was void of years for the wines, which even I know is a mistake. Overall, I was pleased with my lunch. I would give the spinach dip and pita chips 5 stars! The crab cake sandwich was spicy but there were many more flavors to it. Looking forward to going back and trying some of their other items. read more

This review is based on lunch. Food is good but for the price I think I would rather just come for dinner instead since the dinner prices are not that much more. Came here for lunch on a whim, got there before 12 and there were no other customers in the restaurant. Their lunch menu was small and a bit pricey, each entree is around $15 or more. The portions are also very small, my friend got the fish and chips and at $15 it only came with 2 small pieces of fish and a small portion of fries. I guess I am used to seeing beastly portions down here in Texas. I got the salmon and it was good, not the best I've had but good. Not sure I would want to pay $17 for that again though. I rounded my ratings from 3.5 stars to 4 stars since I thought service was really good. read more

Lucio's - Salmon - New American Near Me - Houston, Texas

Always a winner! One of our favorite Houston restaurants. And BYOB. Resaervations a must on the weekend. A nice space (outdoor dining swell when the weather cooperates). And you can talk. Had a selection of salads - all swell. Entrees were duck, salmon, (huge) ribeye, and lamb. All got top comments. Too stuffed for desserts. Service is always good. Add this to your "must try" list. read more

The food was incredible, the ambiance great for small groups/ date night or girls night. I LOVE that you can still bring your own bottle of wine for a small cork fee! The salmon was droolworthy, we've been coming here for 10 years and it's always so incredible. The staff is personable and so knowledgeable. read more

We went here for dinner last night and had the most amazing time! It is right next to Bludorn. We asked to leave our wine here while we had a cocktail next door- and they were kind and chilled it for us! The food was also so delicious and made with high quality ingredients. And we loved our waitress Irena! Highly recommend every food item, but especially loved the tuna. read more

Visiting Houston and saw a travelzoo deal for Lucio's. Read the reviews in Yelp and off we went! Valley parking was available and at no charge, very convenient and nice start to get to dinner. In summery I would describe this restaurant as super casual, laid back and friendly. Walking in, kitchen was to the left and place is very cozy, yet could not smell any cooking, good ventilation system. Our waitress/host offered a table, I did not like it, was close to kitchen and she gladly seated us at place of our choice. This is a Byob so we brought our wine, waitress provided ice to chill. Corkage fee is $8. Ordered crab cakes, very juicy, and sauce added a spicy tingle. Had the filet mignon cooked medium, asparagus and small grilled potato. Filet was at least 8 oz.. Delicious! Good overall experience..I would go back :) read more

Lucio's - Filet mignon! - New American Near Me - Houston, Texas

Okay to start...4 stars is due to the BYOB. 5 stars for BYOB and flavors and 3 stars if portion is accounted for (honestly with that, 3 is generous). Fiancé and I came here on a whim, as I had been desperately seeking places to bring a superb pinot noir we had snagged, as we don't make a ton of pinot type dishes at home. Valet was to be expected, so that was okay. Ambiance (4) - The place is definitely dark and cute, which we like. It has personality, especially for a wine bar, and is a nice place to have a date night. The chef can be a bit loud, in my opinion, so if you sit in one of the tables by the kitchen, just beware, but it didn't detract too much from the overall mood. Service (4.5) - Our waiter did a great job. I try to reserve my 5s for unreal service, but our waiter really was attentive. He provided a lot of very good suggestions, and he checked in on us the appropriate amount of times. Appetizers (2 in value, 4 in taste, so 3?) - Okay these portions were ALMOST insulting. Seriously? A cheese plate for $15 with three SLICES of cheese? That's a bit much, even for me. I should have looked at the reviews before ordering. The calamari was good, and the sauces were great, but $14 for that portion was also a bit much. Luckily we had the bread which was good to make up for some of it, but I would try other appetizers before ordering these just due to value. Entrees are almost the same! Fiancé got the lamb, which really had an AMAZING flavor. We were pretty blown away. But there was literally no side that came with the $40 dish, and the amount of lamb by itself didn't seem to really warrant that without some mashed potatoes or something. The duck was a 4 with a bit more of a solid portion but suffering from the same issue of needing a side that could've been thrown in given the price. This place was a tricky one for us. It edged the 4 because I've become a wine snob, and I hate paying 2x+ markup for a bottle. For us, despite the silly portion sizes, the $8 corking fee allowed us to enjoy a very good, but very small, meal without the crazy wine markup. We intend to come back with a good bottle in hand, but we may try some other appetizers, or may opt to start somewhere else. read more

I got the duck. I always get duck if it's on the menu. It was fabulous. Get the duck. I also had the mushroom soup and apple pie. Omg both to die for. Icing on the cake is byo bottle of wine. Very nice atmosphere and service. I'll be back. read more

This quiet little neighborhood spot is an under the radar gem hidden in Montrose. Outstanding food, served with grace, in an unpretentious setting. The crab cakes are for real, lumps of crab. I had the rib-eye special, and could have split it. Finished off with one of the best bread puddings I have I have had. read more

I love the idea of BYOB that you can pair with great food. Very cozy and simple, romantic setting, staff was really attentive, and made great recommendations. We had Cured Salmon appetizer which was wonderful, Crusted Tuna and 2 sides of veggie. Veggie was simple , coocked perfect though, I would may be love some sauce to go with ? But cooked simple so it will go with any dish you would order. read more

I went for dinner with friends this past Friday and thought it was awesome!

Highly recommend and will definitely be back! read more

Great spot! I love that we were able to BYOB to this spot. We brought our favorite wine from home for our anniversary. The bread they give is really good but wanted more of it lol, we got the calamari as an app it was SO YUMMY and fresh. I got the ahi tuna and my boyfriend got the filet. Both were incredible and great vibes inside. The waitress was awesome and we got free dessert for our anniversary. read more

Excellent food and service. Love the BYO and free corkage on Wednesday. Highly recommend. Our favorite include beef carpaccio, duck breast, hanger steak, smoke salmon, and mushroom soup. read more

We have been to Lucio's several times over the past couple of years and have always enjoyed it. Love the BYOB option and the food is delicious. I will say though the portions are small for the prices. Wish the waitress would have not changed my mind about how I wanted my filet cooked. Came out undercooked like I expected. Disappointing when you're paying $100+ for meals for two. Glad to see there's more staff now and the restaurant stayed "open" during Covid. read more

First of all, remember to BYOB since you have the option! (With an $8 courage fee though) and secondly, valet parking is valet. You might as well use it unless you're okay with parking far or potentially getting towed. This is a pretty nice quaint and intimate restaurant. Everyone was very welcoming upon entry. We were very happy with the services performed by Steven tonight. We started off the night with Crispy Calamari, a Crab Cake, and Steamed Clams with Chorizo. The Calamari had a excellent dips to go along. The Crab Cake and Steamed Mussels were excellent as well. For our entrees, we had the Sea Scallops, Australian Lamb Rack, Cold Smoke Duck Breast, the Hangar Steak, Glazed Short Ribs, and the Salmon. All the dishes were delicious, but my favorite were the Lamb Rack and Duck Breast. Everything was cooked to perfection. Perfection meaning if you asked for medium rare, it's actually medium rare. For dessert, we tried all three desserts, which consisted of Vanilla Bean Crème Brûlée, Chocolate Brownie, and Brioche Bread Pudding. Let me tell you, the Bread Pudding was out of this world and the brownie was warm, rich, and gooey on the inside. The Crème brûlée was tasty too but was my least favorite out of the three. Overall, my experience here was very enjoyable thanks to our waiter Steven and the chef for making such delicious food! read more

So glad we made it to Lucio's. From the outside, the restaurant is very unassuming, but the inside is cozy and charming. The personalized service my family received was terrific; the lovely waitress even made special recommendations for food and drinks for my daughter. The food and wine were incredible. We can't wait to go back to this Montrose gem. read more

We went to Lucio's on a recent Saturday night. Valet parking was very easy and complementary. The valet's service deserves a tip. The restaurant was pretty full but they had our table held for our reservation and we were seated immediately. We brought a bottle of rosé and they put it in an ice bucket after opening it for us. I started with the clams and chorizo (one of my favorites) and my wife had the goat cheese salad. Both were fabulous as always. For dinner my wife got the tuna which she does almost every time we go there. I was going to get the short rib, which is one of the entrees I have not tried before, but changed my mind when the served told me about the special, 18 oz ribeye. It was well worth it, seasoned well and cooked to perfection. Brought some home with me as it was too big and it was great the next day with some eggs. For dessert we shared the brownie and it was everything a brownie should be, rich and gooey. The price points of the dishes are all reasonable especially considering you can bring your own wine and save the normal 3-4x markup on a restaurant's wine. In previous visits we have had the crab cakes, calamari, two different soups, tomato and burrata salad, and every entree except for the pork duo and short ribs. Everything we have had before I'd order again without a second thought. John, the owner and chef, has a first class restaurant. read more

For my birthday this year, we opted for Lucio's BYOB and Grill. It's been bookmarked for years now, and I finally had an excuse to dine there. When we walked in, it was quiet. I mean, drop-your-fork-and-the-windows-shatter-quiet! The restaurant was empty. Now, before you think that we were eating at some unusual time, let me clarify for you; it was 8pm on a Thursday evening. Normal...? I thought so. We browsed the menu and began with a special tuna beef tar-tar. As soon as we put in our order, we saw a couple come with a bottle. They were seated; then, there was another and another! It was so nice to know that we weren't the only ones eating on Thursday evening at Lucio's! Our starter was fantastic. It was just the right amount and made us anticipate our entrees! We opted for the filet mignon and lamb chops (individually, of course). It really was wonderful. I didn't like my husband's lamb, but he liked it, so no complaints. My FM was fabulous. Melt in your mouth, fabulous. I feel my mouth watering as I write this! The accompanying asparagus and potatoes were just the right accouterments! We ended the night with the chocolate brownie with raspberry sorbet. What a lovely night, albeit with an awkward beginning. read more

I went to Lucio's for Eren M.'s birthday dinner. I saw the name but wasnt sure if you could REALLY take your own drinks there. Have no doubt that you can! It is a very small restaurant a few blocks from Allen Pkwy on Taft. They have valet parking, I saw many open valet spaces and it didn't seem many people use that service. So, the restaurant is tiny, but very cozy. I would like to say that I was surprised at how small the restaurant was. I went in and it was pretty busy. I only ordered an appetizer because although I had planned to have dinner, I was still suffering from an earlier encounter with my office's Christmas party food that didn't go so well.It was also already after 9, it was Thursday and work the next day was looking harder and harder by the minute. I did order the crab cakes as an appetizer and they were very good. Good enough to ensure I will visit them again. The serrvice was OK, nothing stood out for me. I think this place has potential to be a great date spot. Very cozy and although it wasn't quiet, one could definitely have a conversation without interruption. The atmosphere makes it for a very comfortable feel. I shall update this review once I return! (hopefully when I move back from the suburbs I will have time to go back!) read more

My favorite restaurant for important occasions. The food, the service is always impeccable. The BYOB feature is great for when you want to drink that amazing bottle of wine no restaurant has. Only once I had an issue with a reservation mix up for a very important dinner. I would have given a lower rate, but the owner of the restaurant took care of the issue and como an amazing custom appetizer and dessert. I would give 6 stars if it was an option! read more

I came here with my parents and bf for my birthday dinner (with a travelzoo coupon) and I enjoyed it, though it wasn't spectacular in my book. I recommend taking advantage of the BYOB concept and grabbing a bottle before you come! To start off, the complimentary toasted bread slices they give is really yummy! My mom liked it a lot. The four of us ordered the crab cakes, spinach dip, seared ahi tuna, smoked duck breast, Atlantic salmon, proscuitto wrapped pork chop, and a side of butternut squash risotto. I really liked the crab cakes- they were crispy on the outside and full of crab meat on the inside. The spinach dip was hot and came with a big portion of pita chips, which were also very good. As for the entrees, we really only enjoyed the smoked duck and the seared tuna. The duck had a great smoky flavor and was cooked perfectly! And the wasabi mashed potatoes that the seared tuna came with was also really interesting. My salmon, however, was too bland, and the bf thought his proscuitto wrapped pork was too tough. The butternut squash risotto was something that I really looked forward to and was disappointed by :(. The side was a tiny portion (even though it was $8!), and it was just risotto with a few chunks of butternut squash in it. The flavor of the squash wasn't in the risotto itself, and it was actually kind of bland. All in all, though, it was a good experience. The service was fine (though not awesome) and the restaurant has a big patio where you can sit outside when the weather is nice. I also thought it was cool that the kitchen is open so you can watch them cook everything! read more

Lucio's is a hidden gem for those in the Montrose area! Located at West Dallas and Taft, this little place sees a lot of action; so expect to make reservations and have some difficulty with parking. I recommend valet because there is typically a tow truck nearby to catch those parking in the residential neighborhood across the street. The interior features a handful of white linen-covered tables and décor from local artists. Locals love that this is a BYOB with a low corking fee ($5). The menu, while quaint, is delicious. Since my foodie friends and I are strong believers in sharing, I have been able to sample quite a few dishes. The most common sound from our dinner table was a buzz of "MMM..." They have an above-average crab cake as an appetizer option. The jumbo lump crab meat is delish and the portion size is perfect for two to three to have a hearty serving. For your meat and potatoes lover, I definitely recommend the filet - super juicy on a bed of mashed potatoes and asparagus. The chef does a nightly unique fish special. This is hit or miss. Most of the time he seems to be on his game, yet this last time we found the cod to have an overwhelming taste of butter. (Yes Paula Deen, there is such a thing as too much butter!) They ran out of the special early in the evening, so if it sounds good during your waiter's pitch- make sure to have him reserve your plate while your party reviews the menu. Ahi tuna with wasabi mashed potatoes was the favored dish amongst my crew. With great flavor, my friends have admitted to many attempts of recreating this dish only to fall short. My next mission is to get in good with the chef to learn his secret to this fluffy side dish of perfection. My go-to option would be the U10 Scallops with Butternut Squash Risotto. YUM! Cooked to perfection and plated beautifully, this is my idea of healthy comfort food. The sweet squash in combination with the warm risotto brings a melt-in-your-mouth sensation that will keep you coming back to Lucio's. (If I was simply discussing this dish, there would be an extra star or two involved in my rating.) Two things cause Lucio's to fall short on my scale. 1.) Slow service- make sure you have a good bottle of wine and good company because I think a long dinner is a part of the dining experience at Lucio's. If they were to offer a bread selection to the table, it may make the wait more bearable. They will bring a baguette upon your request. 2.) Awful ventilation- symptoms may include itchy eyes due to exhales of a smoky kitchen and the necessity of a change of clothes/secret stash of dry shampoo to erase the inevitable after-dinner smell of your meal. read more

Lucio's - The gang at Lucio's. Close friends in close quarters. - New American Near Me - Houston, Texas

I usually don't go to nice places like this but my friends insisted. They also insisted on paying so I couldn't argue with that. I liked how small the place was. The lighting was dim, and would be a good place for date night. Very intimate setting, you could say. For appetizers we ordered the steamed clams, beef carpaccio, and corn soup. All were delicious. I wanted to be bold and try the beef carpaccio (beef is raw), and I enjoyed it. The baby arugula was sharp and had a nice bite, just the way I like it. Flavors complemented each other nicely, although I thought they'd put more Parmesan or truffle oil on top. The truffle oil was super super subtle--almost unnoticeable. MAIN COURSES: I got the scallops with butternut squash risotto. I really enjoyed the risotto and thought the butternut squash added a nice and extra creamy flavor to it. The scallops were cooked just right. Not rubbery, but it was a little salty to me. My friends got the filet mignon and the flounder with lump crab risotto. They enjoyed theirs. For dessert: We all ordered one of each dessert for the night and tried them all. There were three tonight: the brownie and raspberry sorbet, the raisin bread pudding with vanilla ice cream, and the vanilla bean creme brûlée with a blueberry coulée. The desserts were fantastic. Bread pudding was soft and not soggy. The creme brûlée was firm and not a creamy mess. The brownie was decadent but the raspberry sorbet added a fresh balance to it. TIP: The place is BYOB so we brought a pink moscato with us to enjoy. There is an $8 cork fee if you bring your own bottle. The music selection was great and really surprised me because it's not exactly mainstream. I would describe it as chill, melodic electronic--which is the stuff I've reviewed for work and what I've been into this year. Compliments to whoever put the playlist together. As the night got later, more people started coming in and the service was starting to get slow, but our waiter was always professional and organized. I enjoyed dinner and it didn't fill me up to the point where I couldn't eat another bite, but I was satisfied coming out of the restaurant. The portions are smaller than what you'd find in other restaurants in Houston (as we all know Texas portions can be huge), so if you're starving--don't come here haha. It is a nice place for a date. read more

I was excited to try Lucio's after reading the reviews and picked it for my birthday celebration but I regret it , since there are many other places that are better. I was disappointed initially at how unfriendly the hostess/waitress was. The interior of the restaurant is very plain also. For our appetizers, we ordered the cheese plate which was tiny. The filet mignon carpaccio was delicious though. I liked the fact it was BYOB. My son ordered the steak which was good, and his wife ordered the chef's special ( a fatty fish) which she liked. However, I was very disappointed in the short rib; the size of the short rib was tiny and it was not the best I have had. It worth trying Lucio's but I will not be going back. read more

This is our absolute favorite place for a date night. Incredible food and incredible service.

$5 corking fee per bottle. Fried Calamari (5/5) - i think this is the some of the best calamari that i have had in a while. the breading was just right and each piece was fresh and big and delicious! Prosciutto wrapped Pork Chop (3/5) - salty....seems like they brined the meat because it wasn't super dry, but nothing special. Sesame Crusted Ahi Tuna (3/5) - overdone. i liked the wasabi mashed potatoes though. Smoked Duck Breast (4/5) - i usually like my duck medium rare. even though it was smoked...the meat was still tender and not dry. The waiter was nice enough to comp a side of butternut squash risotto because they ran out of scallops for the night. Filet Mignon (5/5) - usually not a fan of the cut, but the meat was so tender and flavorful! New York Strip (3/5) - not as good as the filet. expected heh. read more

Came here for lunch. The food was decent but a few things made it a slightly awkward dining experience. Appetizers were the highlight: carpaccio was good but oh man, the spinach dip with the fried pita is GREAT. Must get if you aren't afraid of fried stuff. I had the fish of the day which turned out to be pan seared salmon. It was okay (not that remarkable). Things that could have gone better: Get rid of the valet at lunch time - there were plenty of parking spot up front but you can't park there and need to have a valet. Came here with a reservation for a large group and they split the tables for us. We had to request a couple times to have it combined so we can all sit together. read more

A great dinner venue where you can have a decent conversation, a delicious meal and BYOB wines ($8 corkage). The calamari is a crispy and addictive appetiser. The creamy Spanish dip while tasty is very filling. Better with a bigger crowd. Highly recommends -- the duck is perfectly cooked: tender, juicy. The crisp smoked skin added contrasting texture, flavour and complexity. Note: portion is petite, only 2 pieces, each to be savoured! The hanger steak is good too, a close second to the duck. Friendly service, we appreciate our server Sean. Will visit again! read more

I don't usually post reviews, but since this was easily one of my top 5 dining experiences of all time, I wanted to make sure to pass along my compliments. The restaurant atmosphere is elegant, but not overstated, and it was not overly loud, even though we dined a Saturday night. The waitstaff are very knowledgeable and gave great suggestions on both food and wine. The food was amazing and very reasonably priced. The crab cake appetizer was perfect, as were the steamed clams and chorizo. My short rib was extremely tender and paired well with the garlic risotto. While I loved my meal, my husband's tuna was even better! This is the best tuna I have ever tasted- practically melts in your mouth. Even though we were pretty full, we could not resist trying the creme brulee, and I'm glad we did. It was delicious, on par with the rest of our meal. Wonderful dining experience; I highly recommend giving Lucio's a try! read more

Love this Little place! The food is great through and through. We ordered the heirloom salad and the tomatoes melted in my mouth! The burrata cheese must have been home made too. The same was for the hangar steak and chicken. Amazing quality food. It's byob so bring your own bottle for an $8 corkage fee. Great place to catch up with friends or a date. :-) enjoy! read more

Excellent European flair. We love this place. Literally everything is very creative and delicious. They are very particular about their ingredients, wild caught salmon and free range chicken as examples. Many original recipes and made from scratch care. Romantic and intimate. Great service. read more

Excellent date night option. My husband surprised me with dinner there and a play afterwards. First off, curbside valet parking is complimentary, so no need to find parking in this tight area. Next, our waiter Jonathon was incredibly professional, polite and helpful with the menu as he was with our service. For appetizers we had the goat cheese salad - exceptionally fresh with light apple cider vinegar dressing. The goat cheese is fried in a little ball. Super delicious way to start. My husband had the calamari that came with a savory lemon aioli and garlic butter. He enjoyed it as I don't eat it. He had the hangar steak and I had the halibut. The halibut was buttery and very good. The sauce was slightly salty. Dessert was a brownie with a cherry sorbet. This has to be one of the best desserts I've had. That cherry sorbet was knock-out amazing. The place is quaint with a quiet atmosphere and the service is very good. The ambiance is not jaw-dropping. We brought our own red wine and the corking fee is $8. My only reason for not giving 5 stars is the ambiance & I think the side options are repetitive from the dishes. They should introduce different sides that still meet their local fresh approach. read more
