My second time there in 2 weeks, it's the first place I book when I come to Denver. One of the best Italian places you will eat at. From their amazing meat and cheese board, (get the homemade burrata and the 16yr old prosciutto, blow your mind) to their meatballs, fresh salads, unreal pizzas and a bolognese sauce that will take you right to Italy- homemade noodles.... Service is always great and the wine selection is excellent. Will be back again soon!! Ciao!

This is a neighborhood gem. Everything is made fresh, the service is very professional and the wine list is strong. I advise sharing dishes so you can try more of the great offerings.

We had a delicious and lovely dinner last night. We went there for a friend's birthday . The food was great, waiter was great and the only negative was that they didn't bring us our leftovers before we paid the bill so we left and forgot them. Other than that it was 5 star!

The food was genuinely incredible — every dish was flavorful and thoughtfully prepared. The drinks were also excellent, truly some of the best cocktails I’ve had in a while. Our server was attentive and kind, and overall the atmosphere was warm and welcoming.
However, we did run into a couple of disappointing issues. My mother-in-law received a completely different dish than the one she ordered. When we let the staff know, the gentleman who brought out the food (white hair) said he would speak with the manager, but we never received any follow-up or acknowledgment after that. Mistakes happen, and that’s understandable — but communication and resolution are really important, especially in a hospitality setting, and it felt overlooked.
Additionally, the up-charges are noticeably steep. I understand rising costs and higher-quality ingredients, but at a certain point it would feel more transparent and fair to simply reflect those prices on the menu rather than adding multiple add-ons after the fact.
I’d still recommend the restaurant based on the food, drinks, and overall experience — truly delicious — but hope to see better communication around order issues and more straightforward pricing moving forward. With just a bit more attention in those areas, this place could easily be exceptional.

The food and service was impeccable. The nice offering of Prosecco when we were seated was very inviting and thoughtful.

An absolutely fabulous experience at Luca. Our party of six was celebrating a birthday and it couldn't have been a better choice of location. The service was excellent, food fantastic and the pacing perfect. Our server, Dakota, was patient and flexible, as were the rest of the staff that works well as a team. Thank you so much for making the evening perfect!!!

The margherita pizza was excellent. I never bother with food reviews but my goodness even the Brussels sprout salad and dressing was excellent.

Food and service is amazing! BUT we left with a bad taste in our mouths when we were asked to leave (pun intended). I totally understand they are a small establishment and they had several reservations. If when we were seated we were told this we would have understood. We had met up with friends we hadn’t seen in over a year and were a bit disappointed we had to cut the night short
Great dinner. Neighborhood gem. Nice wine selection by the glass. The trout was outstanding.

Incredible food! Absolutely phenomenal!! Fresh focaccia, amazing burrata, delicious pasta. Lively ambience, enjoyed the 80's playlist, (a little loud). Waitstaff are attentive and very friendly, but maybe a little less “you guys” & talking at the table. Standing & waiting just one sec for a table to finish a word would feel so much better. Other that, it was great!!

Love the extra little touches like a small glass of Prosecco on the house to start with and a complimentary cookie at the end. Often find a new seasonal addition to the usual favorites on the menu. Great friendly attentive staff!

Great experience and attentive staff. Received a welcome drink, bread and complimentary cookies. Ordered the sausage and goat cheese pizza, burrata, and the mushroom pasta. Really tasty and great wine. Accommodated us even without a reservation.
