I never had a fancy cupcake before and wanted to see if it was any different than baking my own cupcakes. I bought 4 cupcakes at Lucciano's Bake Shop in Londonderry. NH and honestly the cupcakes didn't taste any different than me buying a box of cake mix with frosting.The fancy cupcake chefs likes to put a lot of frosting than charge you a lot of money.At least I can say I tried it.It was "OK"

Dinner was ok. Next time I'll try something without chicken. Giving 5 stars because dessert was so amazing. Desserts are all gluten free and you really can't taste the difference between traditional desserts with gluten. Super awesome. Carrot cake cupcakes are outstanding! Best carrot cake (aside from my homemade haha). Thank you!

Great gluten free menu and desserts!!! Large case of fancy GF cuocakes right at the entrance.

Dined here recently. We ordered the espresso martini. It was overly sweet, disappointing. I got the Pasta Primavera with Chicken. The chicken was very bland and half of the chicken pieces were chewy; the vegetables included with the meal was simply delicious. I was expecting a white wine infused, and it tasted like there was no wine flavor at all. We also ordered the Frutti De Mari. The muscles were a mediocre; haddock and shrimp were very salty; the whole meal tasted like chicken broth instead of a white wine flavor. The bread was delicious and the olive oil that came with the bread was plentiful, but of poor quality. The highlight of the evening was our server. She was excellent, very attentive and professional and friendly. The restaurant was very busy.

Don't believe the negative reviews, try for yourself, form your own opinion! We had a really great meal last night. We started with the calamari- very fresh, lightly coated and great flavor. The waitstaff was excellent, friendly and attentive. I had the Scallop Fettucine in garlic wine sauce- loaded with fresh, delicious scallops. My husband had the Veal piccata - very flavorful and delicious as well. We will definitely go back!

I have never had worst veal in my life. I think I would have needed a chainsaw to cut it. I was hungry and threw out the whole meal as this tasted nothing like any Italian veal I have ever tasted. Overpriced and I would never go back.

Oh I was so so happy here! Great ambiance, great staff, very attentive to food allergy concerns. Many gluten free options, many! I had the pizza because I haven't had a truly great gf pizza in the US before that wasn't better than frozen ones. This was delightful. I know it's an Italian place, but the gf pizza seemed Greek style to me with a bit of a thicker, buttery crust. I got meatball toppings and it was delicious. I was so excited about it that I ordered one to go on my way home (out of my way) from a late work engagement a week later. I live an hour away but I'd come to the area just for this. My son had the regular chicken Alfredo and was very happy. My boyfriend had a vodka sauce pasta dish as well. They were also happy. And then the desserts! All gluten free. I've had the apple cheesecake (huge, split it!) and later tried the carrot cake cupcake and they were out of this world. My son was happy with his chocolate pb cup cupcake. Will be back!!!

Pasta was great, chicken fingers for my daughter were really well done for kids food, deserts were delicious. We will definitely be going back.

HAHAHA This place is very good. I find it very amusing and suspicious that many of the 1 star reviews mention how wonderful Pasquale,s is. The food at Luccianos is great, the ambiance is cool, and the service has always been top notch. Toss out the 1 star reviewers.

Went to Lucciano's last night and was not impressed!! The food definitely was not what we expected for an authentic Italian place! We got different dishes as there were four of us. Chix Marsala had no taste. We had to order an adult Chix parm for my grand daughter because there is no Children's menu. She's 6, but she got to bring the leftovers home! The Meatballs were tasteless as well. And I agree Pasquale's is right across the street and food is much better!! We won't be back!!
Great gluten free options. Basic Italian. Service is decent. Was t busy but kept up. Very nice place. Comfy and homey.

I cannot speak highly enough of the service at Lucciano's. My fiancé and I ordered takeout tonight and there was a mistake with one of the meals in the order. We have ordered several times before and never had an issue. We called back to hopefully just replace the incorrect order with the correct one (we live close enough and understand mistakes happen). Despite this, Lucciano's went above and beyond to make it right - far beyond any expectations we had. I am so impressed with the service here and will recommend to anyone in the area.

I was in the restaurant when this woman was ranting about her olives, She was way out of line. There apparently was a problem with the pasta, but her rant was all about the cost of the martini and the waitress, then manager, then owner did not get to address the pasta situation . (I saw them replace the pasta.) She knew there was an upcharge for the olives and vodka, but proceeded to order 2 martinis. I felt sorry for the older women she was with and I didn't see anyone getting sick.

Lucciano's is my go-to restaurant for Italian cuisine. I am very picky about meatballs and theirs are even better than my little old Italian grandmother's! The calamari is the best around. I've had several entrees there and you simply can't go wrong. Prices are a bargain when considering the portion size, taste and quality, great service and beautiful atmosphere. Everyone who works there is always friendly. The restaurant is always clean. The gluten free options for desert are out of this world, especially that carrot cake! I will be back soon.

I don't usually leave reviews, but I noticed that a nasty review was just left and I needed to respond. I have eaten at this restaurant many many times, and the food has always been fresh and authentic Italian. The lady who said that her drink was very expensive was told that every olive is $1.50. So if she didn't want to pay all that money, she shouldn't have ordered so many. And as far as the food, maybe she doesn't know what good Italian food really taste like. And when I see reviews like this, that actually, you can see that someone wants to ruin somebody else's livelihood, makes me so very angry! Anyways, I just wanted to say that this restaurant is one of the best Italian restaurants around and I am 100% Italian and know how food supposed to be.
