This location is very quaint and personal. The food was off the charts delicious. The pasta and meats plus the meatballs, rice balls and fried mozzarella were stellar. Definitely a great place for a special dinner or you're looking for spectacular Italian food.

We were greeted in a friendly and welcoming way. The service was excellent. Matthew was very courteous, professional, friendly and attentive. The food came promptly. The breads were to die for! So fresh and delicious. I may be addicted to it as I can't stop craving the variety of breads that were served. I hoped there would be more vegetarian options, but I was delightfully surprised that the bruschetta was a meal in itself. I ordered the Melanzana that was a bit like eggplant...

Luca's Ristorante in Somerset, NJ, is an amazing Italian eatery that captures the essence of what great food and pasta should be. It's tuck in a nook of a strip mall, but you will notice that the parking lot is packed.

Seating has intimate small tables inside or larger tables for groups. Also, they have outside seating for those warmer days. I do suggest you make a reservation just because of the limited overall seating.

I always...
