Why we love it already
The fine-dining component within the cluster of new Italian food and beverage offerings at the base of The Oliver building, Luca serves upscale fare in a stylish setting with impeccable service. Menu highlights include the calamari with tender semolina-dusted Humboldt squid accompanied by an artichoke-lemon tartar sauce, the succulent veal chop saltimbocca with prosciutto and sage, and an indulgent lobster risotto big enough for two. Sommelier Dean Norris’ wine list is a mix of Old and New World options, expertly curated. If you happen to have room for dessert, the fluffy, warm bombolini served with lemon curd and vanilla cream are molto delizioso.
