    Our recent dinner at Lucia’s on the Lake was excellent. We were seated right at our reservation time. The restaurant was tastefully decorated for Christmas. The menu was extensive with many great choices. The food and drinks were terrific. The wait staff was very friendly and attentive. Overall it was a memorable experience. Two thumbs up.

    First time dining at this restaurant. Arrived early and was seated immediately on a very busy evening. Hostess was beyond friendly and pleasant. Difficult to see the menu based on lighting. Was brought an adjustable table lamp. That was an amazing first anywhere. Our server, Victoria, had a top notch command of the entire menu easily answering questions and making relevant recommendations. Amazingly professional and friendly young woman. Food was outstanding from cocktails, to apps, to entrees, to desserts. Everything perfectly prepared and brought to the table at the proper temperature. Lovely presentations. Service was impeccable throughout. Menu is pricey, but you absolutely get what you pay for. I will definitely recommend to others and return again.
