Luca Restaurant

Magic Italian food in a beautiful restaurant.

Absolutely lovely expexerience from the service, to the decor and of course the food itself. Scallops were amazing as was the pumpkin sage butter pasta. Lamp was fantastic but portion could have been larger for the cost. We loved it here.

Excellent. I had heard that Luca was a cut above and I was not disappointed.

Buratta starter and sausage ragu (main course) portion magnificent

Great

Bar area informal and a bit of a corridor with railway carriage style benches and tables on one side. Pre dinner drinks average and expensive ( £9 for very average non alcoholic cocktail ) . Main dining room large and open with glass wall looking onto old wall of the Charterhouse. Attractive outside Italian terrace (with heaters and fireplace) to one side of dining room. We ate inside as chilly evening at very pleasant window table in corner looking on to terrace and old wall. Tap water happily provided in carafes and refilled regularly. Reasonable choice of mostly Italian wines by the glass at variety of prices. Good Italian/British food, but not outstanding. Pasta starters good . Monkfish main course dish with aubergine was tasty but fish was a little overcooked. Beef dish was tender and correctly cooked and served with Zuchini. Chocolate pudding with ice-cream good but pudding was a little dry and not outstanding. Service pleasant and efficient.
Overall, an enjoyable evening but overall, we felt it was rather expensive for what it is.

Luca was superb! Service top drawer and food, especially the pasta was excellent. We will return

Great food, and service

Food very nice indeed. Service very poor.
