An amazing night out to celebrate with my family. Our server Kevin and his crew deserve a Michelin rating for the outstanding service we received from him. Interaction with us including my 2 year old granddaughter was spot on! Will be back and demand Kevin be our server. Merry Christmas Kevin

Let me begin by saying I’m a huge fan of Lucia in Winchester. It’s one of my favorite restaurants North of Boston. Honestly it never disappoints! Today’s visit I enjoyed the Chef’s special PUMPKIN RAVIOLI with Amaretto Sauce! It was amazing as an appetizer, but would have been an excellent dinner choice as well. I shared Fried Calamari which is always delicious, I love that their batter is on the light side! Our entrees were fabulous as well.. Tagliatelle Bolognese, which is a signature dish on their menu, it’s the mist delicious combination of ground meats, red sauce and fresh pasta. My husband enjoyed his Chicken Marsala over fresh pasta which was awesome as well! The wine selection here is awesome, never disappoints! Last, but equally important is their very dedicated staff! Our favorite waitress is Lilease! I’m sure I’ve misspelled her name, so my apologies! In my opinion she’s such an asset to this restaurant, her delightful personality and knowledge of the menu makes dining at Lucia consistently a pleasure! We’ll see you again soon!

Our food was excellent! We had dumplings, wedge salad, and beef Wellington with mashed potatoes. The cook on the Wellington was perfect, and the potatoes were delicious. We sat at the bar where the vibe was upbeat and comfortable. Our bartender Pat was attentive and personable. We will definitely go back again soon!

Fantastic wait service— delicious menu! Quite an elegant ambience— perfect restaurant for a date night. However, they do offer fair for children in case you wanted to bring the family. I went for lunch, but will definitely come back for dinner on a special occasion. 

We have never been disappointed after numerous visits. The entire concept works, including the seasonality of the changing menu. It is amazing the recipes that are available with those healthy calorie counts! Every time I have brought people as guests they are very impressed and will plan to return. On this visit there were six people celebrating a birthday and the holidays. The service Marecella provided was flawless.
