1st time eating there. Cannot believe we have driven by it so many times and never stopped in there to eat until tonight.. My wife, family friend and I had small pizza, chic spinach dish, chic parmigiana and calamari for an appetizer. Everything was spot on. We all loved our choices and our server Becky was outstanding. We will not be a stranger anymore. Thank you for a great dinner and service.

Great food at a great price! Spicy chicken pasta is excellent and the pizza tastes great. I'd prefer a more crispy crunchy dough, so I'll ask next time. Ingredients on the meat lovers are amazing. The garlic cheese knots are so good too. Service was great, our waiters were super nice! It's a little too dim or dark inside for my taste and for dining.

I stopped in for lunch yesterday while on break. Upon my arrival I didn’t see anyone at the counter. My coworker and I grabbed menus and the waitress was there in less than 2 minutes. Suzy was our waitress and she was the highlight of this experience. She was super friendly and running the place like a boss. She was on it with refills and checking on us our whole visit. I ordered the fettuccine with fried chicken. It was A-MAZING! Everything was so fresh and full of flavor. The best I’ve ever had! The Alfredo sauce was so tasty and full of flavor. The chicken was so crispy and full of flavor and juicy. The lunch special was the perfect amount of food! The interior is cute. They were pretty busy but the food still came out in a reasonable time. I will definitely be back.

Luce’s was AMAZING!! The food my family and I all got was some of the best pizza we have ever had! The White Pizza was honestly some of the best tasting food in general. Then our waiter, he was super friendly and took a picture of both my brothers cause of their graduation from their schools. He was just super nice and would make sure everything was okay. The food was so good that we forgot to take photos... I would easily recommend this place to anyone!

This is our favorite local restaurant! It has great food including cheese manicotti that I love with Alfredo sauce. They keep my tea glass full and there is a peaceful atmosphere that is so nice for quiet conversations and is truly a pleasant experience. The pizza and sandwiches are tasty too. Oh, and the service is attentive and friendly. Come away for a warm and peaceful dining experience that is just across town. You'll be glad you did.

I have tried every single chicken parm in Lexington/Columbia. This one is by far my favorite. Something about the chicken is just SO much better than all the others. I get the ziti noodles instead of the spaghetti and it’s fantastic. My husband loves the New York Stromboli. The waitress is so sweet and the atmosphere is the best. Love this place so much!!!
