"I cannot express my delight & gratitude in being recommend this incredible restaurant. Firstly, the quality and presentation of the food is beyond reproach. I had a bolognaise ravioli and it was as rich and delicious as Nona Gasparini's back home. Rich and delicious. We shared artichoke and they were a gastronomic delight. The atmosphere and stylish decor (augmented with appropriate cool jazz playing in the background) is matched with a warm, attentive and genuine service. I cannot recommend this establishment higher for a genuine experience. 5 stars all the way!!"

"We fell into this following the reviews on Google. We were not disappointed. The food is excellent and the service was excellent. Only word of warning is that the medium steak is more rare than medium but that is how I like it. Wine selection is great and I can really recommend this restaurant."

"Our meal was delicious at Carbone! We started with an eggplant appetizer - Nell’orto di Mario. Amazing! Our main courses included a chicken dish and pork ribs with porcini mushroom fries on the side! Dessert was a sweet crème brûlée. Voila! Service and atmosphere were outstanding!"

"The 2 service staffs were friendly and attentive from start to finish, even when crowds started streaming in. All the dishes we had were delicious, packed full of fresh ingredients and taste. One of the top we had in our trip. Highly recommend this hidden gem tucked at the corner of several surrounding bars."

"We loved this restaurant. We felt welcomed from the first moment. We were given complimentary prosecco and amuse-bouches before each course. They were happy to deal with gluten free needs, which was comforting. The food was delicious and perfectly cooked. I recommend the steak and the chocolate dessert. The waiting staff were friendly , lovely and consummate professionals. We had a wonderful evening. We’re already planning our next visit."

"This is a total gem of a restaurant in Lucca. We spent my 12 year old daughter’s birthday here tonight on recommendation from a high opinion of another great Italian restaurant owner in Lucca(SottoSotto) & the staff was so kind & accommodating. Absolutely delicious, fresh homemade pasta, extraordinary sauces, next level dishes on the menu that made it a struggle to choose your order, wonderful service. A relaxed, elegant atmosphere without any pretentious nonsense, but still with the feel of being cared for with all our needs met by great friendly, attentive servers. Chef Andrea is an exceptional talent. Don’t miss it!"
