To be frank, Lucca Restaurant and Bar isn't cheap. However, true gastronomes and foodies will be the first to tell you that cost should always come second to a fabulous meal, and Lucca certainly has no shortage of those. One of the most dependable restaurants in North End, Lucca consistently serves fantastic Italian dishes. They also stick to the philosophy of sourcing quality ingredients from local farms and have even cultivated strong relationships with local fishermen to make sure they get the best seafood the East Coast has to offer. Simply put, food at Lucca is beyond mouthwatering. Show-stopping entrees include the lobster risotto, which features freshly shucked Maine lobster and smoked bacon that is served over a saffron risotto, sautéed haricot vert, and chives. Pasta lovers are also bound to love Lucca's home-made rigatoni, which is tossed with the restaurant's famous agrodolce wild boar and roasted red and yellow pepper ragout, then finished with pecorino Toscano.
