Lucca is one of our favorite restaurants in town. Great for a date night. Cozy and warm atmosphere. Food is consistently delicious. The rotating seasonal menu keeps flavors new and intriguing. Great focaccia bread, great mixed drinks. Give it a try!

The service was good the ambiance was nice. The food was underwhelming .Left broke and hungry. Our hilight was the fresh mozzarella , the lamb skewers were ok, the clam stew was gritty and underwhelming . We ordered 5 selections, wine, a cocktail and 2 desserts. The dessert was nice. Just no thrills to report .

Great food and atmosphere. I felt like I was in a San Francisco restaurant. Relaxed and yet still upscale. Great addition to corvallis.

Cute place for group or couple’s date night. Dinner is served tapas style. Items come out pretty fast, as they are ready. You could opted to have the server service them “course” style, which we did, but it still comes out a bit too fast for us, as the table was getting over filled and running out of table space. Would recommend, but next time, we’ll order only a couple dishes as we go and opt to maybe add more if needed, instead of placing all the dishes order all at once.

Good food- very busy and it got loud. This place is amazing but it struggles when it’s crowded.

We wanted to go to a really nice restaurant to celebrate our 22nd wedding anniversary. On a trip to the Farmer's Market, I spotted Lucca Taverna and decided to try it. We were not disappointed. Food was imaginative and expertly presented. The theme is small plates to share and the wait staff delivered each new plate exactly on time. We highly recommend this venue for any special occasion dinner, or just a fun night out.

I don’t know why Lucca doesn’t have 5 stars! This is definitely some of the best food and drinks I’ve had in the area. They recommend family style, which I love, but you can order your own meals as well. Cocktails are great and it’s really cute inside!

I want to love Lucca (and the remodeled atmosphere is lovely) but the food seems like a similar but lesser version of the fare at Castor that doesn’t scale well with the pricing
the risotto surprised me, there's perfect amount of seafood. everything just tastes so good, will return!

This is my favorite restaurant in Corvallis. Good for date night and their food is amazing. Kinda sad that they changed their tiramisu recipe I liked it the first time.

The food was excellent and so was the server. The amount of food on the plate was under-generous and looked like half an order. All four of us felt this way.

I was invited to try Luca by the manager, whom my niece and I met outside of Castor while walking to the art center. Castor was the first restaurant my husband and I visited during our recruitment trip with OSU deans and department heads so I had planned to take my niece there during her visit from California. The manager encouraged us to try Luca instead, and we decided to give it a chance.
While the food at Luca was good, the service left much to be desired. Our waitress was noticeably dry and inattentive. We watched her be warm and friendly with every other table. Despite being seated well before other parties, we were consistently overlooked and made to feel unwelcome. It was disappointing and disheartening, especially since we had been personally invited to dine there.
Great food cannot make up for poor treatment, and unfortunately, the lack of hospitality overshadowed the experience.
Overall 3/5 stars!

Food was meh except the steak (only reason for 3 stars), didn't expect it to be as good as it was at an Italian restaurant. Breads were decent although pricey, Gnocchi Bologna meh, spaghetti meh. Cute place for a meet with friends which is what we did. Definitely will not go back if service doesn't improve. Plus, there's much better authentic Italian locally than Lucca.
