    It was our first date night dining at Luce. After 21 years of marriage we always take at least one night for just us. This was by far our greatest experience in Charlotte! The food was GREAT, the atmosphere was EXCELLENT, and the service was SECOND TO NONE!!

    Wife & I love this place. House made pasta, bruschetta and nightly specials are always phenomenal. The chef is superbly talented and the staff are outstanding. Last night we had the lobster & shrimp risotto and halibut specials which were both delicious. Highly recommend this place!

    Group of 6 celebrating birthdays and Christmas. The food was outstanding, and I recommend the veal. My buddy had the filet and said it was awesome! Everyone else had pasta and really enjoyed it. Service was great in recommending dishes and wine. We will definitely be back!

    Food is consistently good here. Excellent veal marsala tonight. I was disappointed my otherwise good vegetables were garlicky.

    The evening was delightful. We enjoyed great service with no feeling of being rushed. This reminded us of many meals we had in Italy. Wonderful food and drinks. We love the intimate dining room. We will definitely return and recommend.
