Luce Restaurant & Bar

One of the best restaurants I have been to in Charlotte. Great atmosphere, excellent and authentic Italian cuisine, extensive and top notch wine selection, attentive and very cordial staff. 5 of us enjoyed dinner there and everyone agreed that their dinner selections etc were wonderful. I can't wait to go back! Parking is in the Truist Center building and validated by the restaurant

Phenomenal all around. The ambiance and service were excellent. They start you off with bread and beans which were good. We got the calamari that was phenomenal. The wife got the Penne Positano. The sauce was heavenly. I got the Filet Mignon which was as smooth as velvet. Finished it off with crème brûlée. Everything was fantastic.

We recently went to Luce Restaurant for my daughter's 16th birthday. She did all of the research, read the reviews and made the reservation. When you get to Luce, you have to go through the lobby of the Truist building because of construction outside. However, once you get in, you immediately notice the ambiance and atmosphere is well deserving of the great reviews. We were promptly seated and within a matter of minutes our server was over and helped us with the menu, drinks and answered all of our questions. The service was impressive and we never felt like we were being unattended. The food came out quickly and everyone in our party enjoyed their meal. When you look at the menu, it's touches on many tastes so you're sure to find something. Overall, the food, the atmosphere and ambiance were perfect. My daughter was very happy with everything and the staff did a wonderful job of making her feel special.

The filet mignon was cooked perfect and the truffle sauce on it was amazing. The potatoes that came with it were very good. Drinks were pretty good. The muscles were basic, but the clams were great. I only wish they had some extra menu options. It did have a large amount of pasta and Franch culinary has more than just that to offer. The pasta my partner got seemed good, but it's pasta, not all that different than other places, but adding shrimp is usually about $6, it was 16 here. Her pasta with shrimp cost more than my filet mignon which has never really happened to me. It's a solid place, but I'll probably not return simply because theres a few places I'd rather go for the same cost. If you do go, focus on anything not pasta and you should be pretty happy. If you park in the deck, most spots are reserved, just go to a high floor like 6 or swing to the exit area to find a spot. Take the elevator down to lobby and the entrance is right there in the lobby. Parking there is $15 I think

I had the pleasure of dining at Luce recently, and I can't stop raving about it! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warmth and hospitality that set the tone for a truly exceptional dining experience. Let's talk about the drinks - outstanding doesn't even begin to describe them! Each sip was a flavorful journey, and the mixologists at Luce certainly know their craft. Whether you're a cocktail enthusiast or prefer a classic, they've got something to tantalize your taste buds. Now, onto the food – spectacular is an understatement. Every dish that graced our table was a masterpiece. The flavors, presentation, and attention to detail were truly impressive. And don't even get me started on their Tiramisu – it was a heavenly slice of dessert paradise! I can still taste it just thinking about it – absolutely yummy! They also arranged for a dessert and a candle for our anniversary! But what truly set Luce apart was the absolutely stellar service. The staff was not only attentive but genuinely warm and welcoming. They went above and beyond to ensure our dining experience was perfect, making recommendations and answering our questions with enthusiasm. As a huge fan of great food and memorable dining experiences, I can confidently say that Luce has won my heart. I can't wait to return and savor their culinary delights once again. If you're looking for a restaurant that combines outstanding drinks, spectacular food, and dessert to die for, all served with a side of impeccable service, Luce is the place to be. Highly recommended!

The customer service here is A1. The staff made sure I was taken care of. The Caesar salad here is great. The dish with the penne pasta and shrimp was very tasty. There was a special dish during the time I went for lobster risotto, which was very tasty. The entrees could of had a tad more seasoning but was still good. If you like chocolate, the chocolate dessert is just about perfect. The crème brûlée was on point too. The space is small and cozy but not too small at the same time. I liked the lighting and atmosphere.
