At LUCCA there ‘ only one way to the heart – through the stomach. Husband-and-wife team Elliott and Cathy Pavlos have built LUCCA with lots of heart, which means great attention to its seasonal menu, reminiscent of a Euro bistro, complete with an exquisite wine bar. This year, they showcase their offerings through a truly heartwarming Valentine ‘ Weekend Dinner Tasting Menu on Tuesday, February 14th and every couple dining at LUCCA that night will receive a $25 gift certificate to use at a later date!

The special Valentine ‘ Dinner Menu courses may be ordered as à la carte specials on Friday, February 10th through Monday, February 13th alongside LUCCA ‘ regular dinner menu, and on Valentine ‘ Day, Tuesday, February 14, as the only menu for the evening. The expandable menu is $65 per guest for an American 4-course or $71.50 for a European 5-course or $79 for a European 6-course. A full 4-course vegetarian menu is available for guests.

Those who would like wine paired with their meal may add wine pairings, chosen especially for this menu, for $20 per guest, or Elliott ‘ reserve pairings of premium wines for $35 per guest. All prices exclude tax, gratuity and additional beverages. Vegetarian options are available, as are cheeseboard addition and wine flight upgrades for every course. Reservations are highly recommended and gift certificates will not be accepted for this holiday tasting menu.
