    So happy we came to Lucetta! We adored the squid with nduja, the tartare di manza was not the flavour profile for us - though the produce was incredible - the pairing of the duck ragu with the broccolini side - would recommend to everyone! Outstanding and also - putting such effort into a side dish did not go unnoticed! Would definitely come back and would definitely recommend!

    The food was so delicious! Love the “feed me” or whatever it’s called option. Such a good range of flavours. It’s on the slightly expensive end but it’s reflected in what you’re getting and so worth it. The quality is amazing and it was perfect place for our anniversary dinner.

    This Italian gem is a true standout. The fresh squid is simply divine—perfectly tender and bursting with flavor. The wagyu bresaola is another must-try, with its melt-in-your-mouth texture and rich taste. Beyond the incredible food, the staff are exceptionally attentive and kind, making the whole experience feel warm and welcoming. It’s clear that the team at Lucetta puts a lot of heart into their work. Orange is very lucky to have such an amazing restaurant—it’s a true culinary treasure! Highly recommend!

    Such an incredible experience from start to finish. The waitress(I didn’t get her name) was absolutely amazing, and explained everything on the menu thoroughly. The food was absolutely outstanding and we will definitely be back.
