If it was just the food, I'd give it 5 stars. The serving was decent too. But man the waiting time is ridiculous. 40 min waiting for a table and more than 1 hour waiting for the pizza. Ridiculous. They are making it on purpose otherwise I can't explain.A tip would be if you are waiting at the next door bar, maybe order the pizza from there while you are waiting to be seated in the main restaurant. Maybe that will be better.
When I tell I’ve been wanting to try this place since I saw Lucali for the first time on [email protected]? That’s delicious.We had an amazing waiter name George and he recommended all the best items.Summer saladBeef pepperoni chipsWingsAnd 2 plain piesIt was simply perfect.
Mildly underwhelmed overall given the reputation that preceded the institution that is Lucali.The front of staff were very kind and attentive- which set us off on a good way to start our meal. Our waiter was engaging but admittedly not the most attentive given the size of the indoor-outdoor space and dearth of staff.The kale Caesar was pretty good- nothing amazing and a small portion but solid. The meatballs- more of the same, pretty good but felt it was lacking in terms of what you were paying for it.The pizza we ordered with pepperoni, mushroom and shallots took close to 50 minutes to arrive, pretty surprising given the cook time on the pizza. The pizza was good with fresh toppings, but lacked the oomph and wow factor one came to expect after watching a certain Munchies video. Perhaps the magic of Brooklyn is simply a very difficult thing to transplant to balmy weather.
Ok pizza. Not sure what all the hype is about. Go if you are nearby, but not worth going out of your way for. We asked for Italian sausage on our pizza, and I must have counted 8 tiny pieces of sausage in total. Come on Lucali! Fa pieta!
We had a really pleasant time having dinner here! The ambiance is very cool and we can see the process of making the pizza. The pizza itself was very tasteful and big in size. The service was excellent, we also tried the dessert calzone which is calzone filled with cheese and topped with Nutella, we enjoyed it very much. Definitely recommended! But the place was crowded and we had to wait 1 hour to get a seat, the dont take any reservation.
Great brick-oven baked thin crust pizza topped with good quality fresh ingredients. We also ordered the kale caesar salad, which was different than a regular caesar but very good. Pictured is the sausage and mushrooms pizza.
Muy buen lugar, gran ambiente y buenas pizzas!! Los hermanos argentinos además atienden muy bien!
Amazingly, it is as good as the original Lucali in Brooklyn. The service, however, can be very slow since the restaurant is three times the size of the Brooklyn location. Takeout is also a great option for those who want to skip the wait.
Even with the 1 hour wait times this place is worth it. The pepperoni chips might be the best snack with a beer that has ever existed.
A friend took us there. We had a great time and good dinner. The pizza was great and the aubergine excellent. We had nice beers and wine. We enjoyed the laid back style of the restaurant.
