If you’re just looking for an awesome meal while out on the town then you will not be disappointed. I was completely floored by the Pork Belly appetizer. It’s actually the portion size of an entree and so I think the restaurant could actually get away with reducing it in size. The flavors and taste however were ridiculously good. As for my main, the Himalayan salt aged steak, it was probably one of the best steaks I’ve had this side of the pond. Mind you I am a steak snob and am very used to eating Wagyu from Japan and Australia. However, this British cut of beef was prepared to perfection and I savored every bite. For desserts, the gelato is decadent and definitely hits the spot after such a rich appetizer and entree.
If you’re looking for a great meal go to Lucia. You will not be disappointed.
We had a fabulous anniversary meal, dining in the courtyard area of Lucia's. The food was served promptly and was absolutely gorgeous! Staff were attentive without being intrusive. We even received an anniversary card on our table when staff linked up a voucher present with our booking. Great atmosphere. Thank you Lucia!
A complete 5* lunchtime dining experience. Faultless from arrival to departure. Restaurant was busy on arrival but we'd booked in advance. Seated indoors in a nice space near to the windows. Beautiful interior. And the ladies toilet facilities are fabulous! They're upstairs, which wasn't an issue for my daughter and I. We ordered cocktails, which were delicious and very pretty. I opted for the 3 course menu with the fixed price. Bruschetta, gnocchi and a chocolate mousse were my choices. Daughter enjoyed a paté, ravioli and shared my dessert. Excellent value for money. Good portion sizes and excellent quality. Staff were attentive throughout. We will definitely be back to this lovely place on our next visit to York.
Lovely staff and the food was delicious.
The carbonara was the best I’ve ever had and the lasagne was amazing, they’re not stingy on the meat either haha
Loved the cocktails and the atmosphere was bustling. The food arrived quickly with the staff being very helpful.
Will recommend and visit again !
Great food and drink. Great for a night out with friends or family.
We got change from £200 for four mains, four deserts and a couple of drinks / cocktails each.
I’m having a pizza next time I am there.
Firstly the staff are excellent here. The host got us a table for 8 people after a booking issue and the servers were attentive throughout.
The restaurant has a mix of indoor and outdoor seats and the outdoor has heaters and is covered so no need to worry about the weather. We sat inside and the atmosphere was great.
One of our party eats gluten free and there is a great menu of gluten free options and was one of the reasons we went here.
We went for sharer breads to start which were really nice and like pizzas.
For my main I went for the steak skewers which were cooked to my preference and the portion size was perfect. I washed it down with a bottle of Malbec which was 👌Noone on the table had any issues with the mains and the pizzas looked delicious. My dessert was a rum soaked sponge and I would highly recommend it.
I would highly recommend this place first for the great service and the food
Visited with a friend. The service was great really attentive, maybe slightly over the top but we never without or needed anything. Food was great! We ordered some starters to share which worked really well. The rose and lychee cocktail was really nice! If I’m ever in York again I would like to revisit!
Food was good but what makes this place special is the service and atmosphere that comes with it. Thanks Tom (waiter) you are absolutely brilliant! Also awesome dessert menu. Highly recommended 👍

Lucia, the charming Italian restaurant nestled in the heart of York, left us utterly delighted during our recent visit. From the moment we stepped in, it was clear that this establishment excelled in every aspect, from service to food, drinks, and desserts.
The service at Lucia was nothing short of amazing. The staff was attentive, friendly, and exceptionally knowledgeable about the menu. They went above and beyond to make our dining experience special.
As for the food, it was a true Italian culinary delight. I savored a mouthwatering pepperoni pizza, perfectly baked with a thin, crispy crust and a rich tomato sauce. My girlfriend opted for the arrabbiata, which she described as lovely, with just the right balance of spice to tantalize the taste buds.
To cap off our wonderful meal, we indulged in a decadent chocolate brownie for dessert. It was the perfect sweet ending to our dining experience.
Lucia's drink selection was impressive, offering a variety of options to complement our meals. The ambiance of the restaurant was cozy and romantic, making it the perfect place for a date night in York.
In summary, Lucia is a gem of an Italian restaurant that we wholeheartedly recommend to anyone seeking an exceptional dining experience. Whether you're in the mood for a delicious pizza, a delectable pasta dish, or a sweet treat, Lucia has it all. Combine that with the outstanding service and inviting atmosphere, and you have the recipe for a perfect evening in York.
Food was excellent, staff were a pleasure and were delightful to speak to, the exterior and interior were gorgeous. we sat outside, under the canopies at around 7 so it was just dark and all the lights were glimmering beautifully, i had the potato croquets with truffle mayonnaise and it was divine, however not as divine as my main, i had the beef fillet and baked gnocchi and it was sensational, i’ve honestly never had anything like it, both dishes were extremely flavoursome and the food came within 15 minutes of our order having been taken. the food was affordable and worth every penny, another member of my party had the 8oz steak and said it was delicious and perfectly cooked. could not recommend this place more as everything was absolutely fantastic.
