2008-01-13 20:41:50   From the outside you would not think much of the place but the inside is very warm and cozy. Linen tableclothes and good food. I had veal with mushrooms in a cognac souce. My wife had a chicken dish with peppers, olives and artichokes. Ala carte menu can get expensive. Most main dishes are $18- $22. —ScottHendler

They need to gut this plaza and start over, it is embarrassing to look at. —MrRochester

2009-08-09 17:13:27   The inside exceeds my expectations, and the food was decent enough. However, the portions were minimal given the high (for Rochester) prices. More importantly, when paying that much, I expect much better service. While our waitress (a trainee) was very nice and accommodating, the regular staff was very rude—to the trainee and our party. The waitresses loudly made insulting comments from only a few feet away from our table. The chef is very stubborn about his dishes, and minor substitutions are rejected almost automatically. —jpaolucci

2009-10-05 12:43:50   I went to Lucano's with two other people during Restaurant Week, and we adored the food! My friend and I had the gnocchi (we shared both kinds - one with lamb and one with the cream sauce) and my boyfriend had the bucatini. All of us left extremely happy and absolutely stuffed. We had no problem with the service at all. We'll definitely go back, but probably for lunch, since the prices are more reasonable on a regular basis. Delicious! —EHjulstrom
