    Cabrese pizza - could share depending on how hungry you are

    Fantastic small restaurant with nice outdoor patio. Wonderful service and the food was delicious. Would definitely recommend - not unusually pricy compared to other places and food was quality good- and just the perfect portions so you don't leave there stuffed.

    Spaghetti with Seafood

    This is a pretty good place - it was recommended by a local jewellery merchant that we bought from earlier, so being the hungry tourists we were, we decided to leverage their advice in an attempt to avoid Lucerne's typical tourist traps. My parents and I ordered three pasta dishes each - out of all, I thought the Spaghetti w/ Shrimps was very good / underrated, followed by the Prawns with Linguine The prices are a good 10% less than the surrounding area, and the Einhorn features a neat patio to look at passer-Byers.

    Great Italian food and the desserts especially, were just brilliant! There were three of us and mum got a veg pizza, which was pretty decent (she wished the toppings were more US style), and the green salad to share with me which had an amazing balsamic dressing. I ordered a trio of pasta, which came in the colours of the Italian flag - top taste was fettuccine pasta with pesto, second ranked was fusilli in tomato sauce and then the gnocchi in Alfredo cream sauce. Then unfortunately, we come to the only sour note to an otherwise wonderful lunch, when my brother got the salmon risotto. He really disliked this as it was too cheesy for him, but also the risotto was undercooked. I tasted it too and agreed with him and it's the only reason why it's a 4 star review instead of 5. For dessert, mum and I split the tasting trio and my brother got the tiramisu. This was excellent. It was little bites of perfection and just right with the level of sweetness. I plan to go back again before leaving Lucerne.

    Nice place...very comfortable.

    Pasta was bland and horrible with a fly hovering around all the time. Pizza was decent. Worst part is the water glasses smelled like egg

    Basilico Luzern - Great thin crust pizza

    We stumbled into this place accidentally when looking for Jeff's Burgers, which was next door…read more They offer both menus in both locations so we reviews the menus and decided to try a pizza and salad to share. We quickly learned that portions are huge, and very little English is spoken at these smaller places. No worries though...after stumbling through ordering a beer (easy to order) and a Chardonnay (a little different) we ordered a large salad and a pizza to share. Service was excellent once we overcame the language barrier, and the large house salad (Gruner salat), and a combo pizza (stagioni) for 10.50 and 23.50 Francs were excellent! The staff are very pleasant and accommodating...we found one waitress who spoke English. This is definitely a popular place for families and locals and can be very busy. It's cute; quite small, but highly recommended off the beaten path restaurant!

    Don't visit this place. They take advantage of visitors. The Pizzas we had were just ok…read more. Magherita, Parma, Rusticala. Nothing special. First off, there were four of us, two adults two kids and they insisted we must order 4 pizzas. Ofcourse the pizzas are huge and as a result there was a lot of wasted food. Maybe this is a Swiss thing that anyone occupying a seat must spend a minimum amount, but if so, what a sucky way to run a business. Next when it came time to pay, the guys says "you must pay cash". Now I wish he had told us that earlier, not sure what we would have done had we not had cash. This was the first place in all of Switzerland in our 2 week trip here that demanded cash. But there was a reason for this as we'd find out soon. The bill was a little over CHF 100. I handed him CFH 110. He prompted gesticulated "ok? Ok? Finish".. clearly indicating that we wanted to keep the change as a tip which he did! Overall shady service designed to cheat foreigners.

It's close to the Lion of Lucerne so we got to see that as well as enjoy a good meal. We had a nice mixed salad and shared the four cheese pizza, which was more than enough food for two. The pizza was among the best we've ever had, rich and flavourful. We were there around 4:00 PM and were the only customers. The server/owner was very nice and we totally enjoyed our dinner.

We highly recommend reservations because we tried to walk in the night before and nothing was available for one hour. We began our meal with Bruschetta which was very tasty. It was 4 slices of Italian bread covered in a delicious tasting oil, garlic, and chopped tomatoes. A nice start. My wife ordered the Spaghetti Aglio and I had the Spaghetti Bolognese. Both meals were tasty and cooked fresh. Portion sizes were respectable. The service was exceptional and our waiter spoke good enough English. The prices were very reasonable and cheaper than it would have been in the USA. This was a nice end to our trip in Lucerne. The restaurant appreciated our business and shook our hands twice when we left. It was worth the visit.
