The customer service here is A1. The staff made sure I was taken care of. The Caesar salad here is great. The dish with the penne pasta and shrimp was very tasty. There was a special dish during the time I went for lobster risotto, which was very tasty. The entrees could of had a tad more seasoning but was still good. If you like chocolate, the chocolate dessert is just about perfect. The crème brûlée was on point too. The space is small and cozy but not too small at the same time. I liked the lighting and atmosphere.

The wait staff was friendly, professional and accommodating. The food came out fresh and hot, from the appetizers to the main course. Desert was delicious as well. I will be visiting again before I leave Charlotte.

I loved everything about this restaurant and will definitely be returning. I took my boyfriend here for his birthday, and it was phenomenal. The only thing I was not too fond of was the charcuterie board. However, that’s not the star menu item. The other appetizer we ordered with the mussels took me back to my time in Little Italy and how they serve their mussels and clams.This was my first time having risotto and it was a successful experience! Thank you for hosting us! I cannot wait to return.

Everything about Luce is just wonderful! Yesterday, we celebrated my husband’s birthday. They welcomed us and sat us at a lovely table and gave us bubbly and gelato on the house to celebrate. Caesar and his team were beyond wonderful and I highly recommend Luce to ANYONE in the Charlotte area. Come for great vibes and even better food! You won’t regret it!

The food is the reason to go. Simple meals done perfectly. The salmon was wonderful. Lasagna also a favorite. Service was quality as expected. Atmosphere was good but not special. Lemon drop cocktail was also well worth it.

The food was great, the server was pretty good. The assistants that brought the food were rude and not trained at all. We had a reservation for 8:30, 9:45 they stared to get the place empty, stared to move chairs and tables apart to a corner, we couldn’t finish our coffee, we had to leave. On Google they advertise that they close 11pm, the didn’t say a word that it was time to close. It’s a shame but it was first and last time. For an upscale restaurant there’s a lack of service and communication with the costumer. Never disclosed that they automatically include 20% gratuity.

Good vibe & very friendly staff, but in my opinion the food was Mid at best. Everything looked better than it tasted.

We had an outstanding evening at Luce; the service was spectacular, the staff was quite friendly, the food was wonderful, and the wine pairings were very well done. Very nice location tucked away in uptown Charlotte back behind Sea Level. We will definitely be back.

HORRIBLE WAITER!!!!! 20% Gratuity is automatically included in the bill so no wonder they don’t care how they treat you. I mean who ask the guest what price range are you trying to stay under when asking about wine recommendations. First of all, I wouldn’t come to a restaurant if I felt anything on the menu was too much for me to afford. The food was ok, nothing extraordinary or truly mouthwatering. I’ve had better patas at Cheesecake Factory. The ambiance was nice and cozy. But the place could use a new ceiling. Overall I do feel like the experience was ruined by our waiter. As a business owner I have to leave this review because one of the most important things for a business is CUSTOMER SERVICE. Customer service is 100% under owner’s/Management control. I am doing this hoping the owner/manager takes notes (if he cares.) I won’t be coming back here honestly.
