It’s in a strip plaza so you would miss it if you passed it. However, the food is always excellent and they have a loyal following. Northern Italian cuisine not Italian American food. Your specials are on par. Lucano salad is delicious. All their appetizers are fantastic. Their pastas are unique and different and definitely a step above most Italian American restaurants. The owner’s homemade lasagna is light and one of the best in town. Don’t waste your money on that charcuterie board as it’s not that great. However the rosemary shrimp skewers is fantastic. They veal chop is delicious. Service is always great. It’s reasonable price. Not necessarily that special on the inside, but it’s relatively quiet. There’s even a little bar you can use while you’re waiting for your table. Give Chuck and Joanne the owners your business because they do a fantastic job and it’s well deserved.

Great selection of wine, although if you want something good you have to buy a bottle. Wish they had more selection available by the glass. Food was delicious. Old school vibe. Would def go again.

Consistently reliable if you want excellent service and excellent food. We try going to other restaurants and often just end up saying “we should’ve gone to Ristorante Lucano”. I still have yet to order a main course from the menu because their specials are always so good. The cocktails from the bar are the best, highly recommend!

What can I possibly say about this establishment that hasn’t been said already. Nestled in a little plaza I have preconceived notions, but I was wrong. The staff greeted us right from the start showed us to our table and an expedient manner everyone was smiling and friendly. Our server Colleen was superb in fact we’ve asked for her to service next time we’re at the restaurant. I had a 22-ounce steak and my birthday guest also had a delicious meal. But I left contented satisfied and will definitely go back for more. The owner came and shook my hand and introduced himself it was very cordial and very happy to have us. I recommend this restaurant to anyone who is looking for ambience great service and delicious food. You won’t be disappointed!

This place looks like it is meant to be more formal but the atmosphere is very causal. The food is incredible. We walked in with no reservation but were able to eat at the bar. I think this was the right move because the bartender was incredibly friendly and only made the food more enjoyable. Cocktails were delicious and a great spot to watch the Bills’ game.

Started Well But Went Downhill
We arrived on time for our 7 pm reservation this past weekend, and our drinks and my salad were wonderful. My husband ordered the Manhattan Clam Chowder. It looked right but there were no clams, just shrimp. No explanation. What if he had a shrimp allergy? Did someone think we wouldn’t know the difference? Then we waited for our main dishes which finally appeared about 9 pm, two hours after we had arrived. Mine was not at all as described. Instead of a chicken breast with diced tomatoes and other vegetables, it was chunks of chicken drowned in a thick, garlicky sauce that tasted like under-cooked tomato paste. My asparagus was barely warm. My husband’s veal entree was lukewarm, under-sauced and tired. Our meals were certainly not worth the wait.
Two further comments: It was a full night, and even though most all the tables were full, clearly others waited as long as we did. You’d think the owners, who were aware of the delays, would have come by, offered some kind of explanation, and apologized. But they did not! On a positive note, I want to say our server Jim was exemplary.

Lucano is an extremely authentic, family-run Italian restaurant and an absolute must-go. From the moment we walked in, we truly felt like part of the family while getting to know the owners. The warmth, hospitality, and love that fills this place is something special. It felt just like being at home with family, and we’re Italian, so that says everything. Our new favorite spot!
Get the specials- the food is all incredible!

What an amazing experience. The atmosphere was so lovely and the employees so attentive And knowledgeable. Everything was delicious and filled with so much flavor and love probably the best Italian wedding soup I’ve ever had the calamari being different sizes of rings, but especially the tentacles are my favorite and don’t get me started on the Seabass. It was unimaginable that something like that could be made.
All I have to say is you need to try this place ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
