Based on a previous review for Luccarellis, I was so excited to try Delucas but found out it’s the same ownership as Lucarellis, so I wouldn’t even take a chance on it. Tommy Villani is a never present owner And any restaurant that can’t make pasta Aldente
Is not a real Italian restaurant.

We had a great time. Atmosphere is quiet and enjoyable. Food was good. Large portions, so you will have enough for lunch tomorrow. The owner came and talked to us for a while. Highly recommend.

I found this place by accident. This is one of the best, by far, Italian restaurants i have been to in a long time. The food spectacular, service, amazing and the atmosphere, inside is beautiful, outside not so much. I'm from Jersey and it brought me back. It's expensive but worth it. I'll be back.

This restaurant is under new ownership! Simple but effective Dinner menu! We love the atmosphere, the music and the feel of the restaurant dinning room!! The food was Great! The Mussels we started with were cooked just right! Loved the extra garlic. We had The Oso Buco for the entree! Delicious!! The Lasagna was just right! The wine menu was simple but great for the price!
The entire staff are friendly! Lauren (our server), did a wonderful job and was very polite, immediately treated us with a smile and told us the Dinner Specials. She was always there to ensure we had a great time! The Lasagna was just right! The wine menu was simple but great for the price!
The tiramisu was the dessert and did not disappoint. Wonderful place to eat! Thank you!

Starting with the water and wine glasses on the table. 4of 4 glasses were dirty and spotty. I pointed this out and they apologized and brought the back pretty much the same.

The dinner rolls had no business on a table with $40+ entrees. They were not fresh and they were microwaved do they were warm and an hour into dinner they hardened up.

The wine list is completely out of date. There is no real accurate wine list.

The two pasta dishes we ordered were average at best and took over an hour to get out of the kitchen and the restaurant was pretty empty. This is not the same Lucas’s I went two two years ago. New owners took over 5 months ago and they have a long way to go if they’re going to make it as a fine dining Italian restaurant. The servers were very sweet and that’s the best thing they have.

Lucarellis was sold to a new owner. Prices raised to ridiculous levels. Taste and quality are down. When the bill came, the prices for all items were higher than shown on the menu. Very unethical and greedy. We'll never return to this place and will tell all of our friends as well. This was a great restaurant with fair prices and nice atmosphere. Not anymore. Stay away.
