    Delicious menu. Items cooked to perfection. Lucina offers a fun, not-at-all stuffy opportunity to sample sophisticated Latin flavors. The empanadas and mofongo were out of this world! Our server, Ryan, was delightful and helpful (and I appreciated not feeling rushed at all, particularly when we arrived ten minutes late for our reserved table on a busy night). I could not have picked a better spot to celebrate my son's 28th birthday. Thank you, Lucina.

    staff is excellent + attentive. food is stellar, unassuming, + unpretentious. don’t sleep on the salad, it’s a profound experience. love that the atmosphere isn’t stuffy, food is elevated without being overly intellectual. 10/10 would return w. tassels on.

    We visit here every few months and I love that there are always some new dishes to try along with our favorites from before. Service is top notch, ambiance is great and the cocktail menu is as unique as the dishes the chefs create. Already looking forward to our next visit!

    Food is fantastic! The service is lacking, but they make up for it with amazing food. You may have to remind them about your drinks, or wait for a while between rounds of food, but it’s delicious and fun.
