This is a hidden gem ! The food is delicious ! Just how Italian should be, light and flavorful. The butter sage for the Ravioli Al Farmaggio is such a pleasant surprise. The gnocchi is cooked perfectly. The rice balls are . The pistachio Ricotta cake and tiramisu, yummm. Lucas and his wife are so warm & friendly. The complimentary almond cookies & espresso are almost as sweet as them ! 😉 You sense their genuine spirits. We loved their personal touch with family photos and the places in Italy where they are from. Loved hearing an Italian accent and how they spoke Italian 🙂 ! They don’t need the fancy venue or twist in their food to be loved. Just good old basic Italian done right. We felt right at home with them and their magnificent cuisine. Thank you for choosing this area to give us a little taste of a ITALIA ! Come to Lucas’ to mangia !!
Sincerely,
A Bronx girl of half Italian descent hehe

In town to catch a flight the next morning, didn’t want chain food. Found this wonderful, authentic mom and pop Italian place. They only serve to go orders, but that worked great for me. The owners are very down to earth, friendly and make you feel at home. I ordered when I arrived so I had time to talk. Great conversation, love the atmosphere and the food was eccellente! Highly recommend if you are in town and don’t mind food to go.

I ordered the chicken piccata and it didn’t have any lemon flavor or visible pieces at all. It tastes like it was made with the brine from the capers only. ( Overly sour). It was unlike any chicken piccata I’ve ever had. Very disappointed! Also, the portion size of the pasta was very small. It looked like a kid size portion.

Delicious homemade Italian food with authentic flavors! The gnocchi and cacio e pepe are amazing. Friendly service, great portions. Perfect for takeout. A true hidden gem in Morton. Highly recommend!

This place is the hidden gem of Delco! Some of the most authentic and generous portions of Italian food I’ve had in the area. The staff is extremely nice and welcoming. I highly recommend the meatballs and arincini as an app and the Cacio e Pepe as the entree. I’ve honestly never had an off meal from here. Besides the phenomenal taste and friendly staff the prices are so reasonable. 2 apps, 2 entrees, and 2 desserts cost me around $60 and I got the more expensive entrees! I would put this place up there with any of the top Italian spots in the city (I’ve eaten at all of them).

Great to see this new place with some interesting Italian dishes. We tried the arancini appetizer which was just ok. The gnocchi with tomato sauce was really good, as was the gnocchi cacio e pepe, but it was more like an alfredo sauce than traditional cacio. Chicken parm was pretty average, and desserts were good, though I ordered 3 and only received 2.

My daughter and I shared the muscles with red sauce and a caprese panini. Everything was very fresh and tasted delicious! The red sauce may have been the best I’ve ever had. I was personally called to ask if we like the sauce spicy or not which I thought was thoughtful.The staff was very friendly and welcoming when I walked in to pick up. I also got tiramisu for later that I can’t wait to try. Parking isn’t great but it will not deter me from ordering again, maybe if this week!

One of my favorite things about traveling is trying local places and I scored a dime tonight! Luca’s Cucina is hidden gem! A true mom and pop shop, the owners are amazing people that immediately felt like friends. I watched Luca make my pasta from scratch and Stefania welcomed me like a local. If you find yourself in the Ridley Park area of Philly this is the spot. I’ll come back here anytime I’m back in town for work.

Stefania & Luca are Amazing! Truly Italian and food is indescribable, you’ve gotta try to understand! I had the chance to try an astonishing special dish, I’m just mentioning burrata to give you a hint of how yummy it was. Then I tried the arancini, super crispy and super tasty. Finally, tiramisu, my favourite dessert ever, made with Savoiardi biscuits and its delicious Mascarpone cream. What else to say? Go there and try!

Lucas Cucina is one of the most amazing family owned Italian ristorante that is off the grid.. you must try the food if you haven’t already !!! The gnocchi’s are made fresh daily!! Serving sizes are more than enough , in my honest opinion I think the owners are under charging for the proportions you get! Tonight I got the spaghetti scoglio I couldn’t have been any more satisfied. As I rushed to write this review I saw another written by Chris O’Neill who said “the sauce taste like ketchup” first off I can attest to the sauce not coming anywhere close to the taste of ketchup .. BUTTTT this is also a guy who left a 5 star review for Bertucci’s … clearly he prefers frozen meals over fresh.
