We have been visiting Lucio’s for more than 10 years. I almost always order the tuna and my husband’s favorite is the duck. I ordered the brownie for dessert last night. I had been thinking about it all week. So gooey and fantastic! And warmed up!! It is one of the best brownies in the city. So good!!!

We can always count on good food and service at Lucio’s. We’ve dined at Lucio’s hundreds of times since they opened almost 20 years ago, and we’ve never been disappointed. Lots of trendy places have come and gone with lots of hype, noise, and crowds, while Lucio’s continues to quietly serve gourmet cuisine in pleasant surroundings with unobtrusive service. The BYOB option allows us to enjoy a much nicer bottle of wine than if we were paying the usual restaurant markup.
