" Luce is now one of my favorite spots in Norfolk! The small, intimate setting makes it perfect for a romantic dinner. I was pleasantly surprised at how knowledgeable the bartenders were about the wine options. The drinks were fantastic, and the food was even better. I had the special, which was risotto with seasonal vegetables. The flavors were vibrant and fresh, evidencing the authenticity of the Italian cuisine. Will definitely make reservations for next time!

" My family and I decided to check out Luce on our last trip to Norfolk, and I'm so glad we did! The menu had quite a few authentic Italian options, and selecting a dish was a fun challenge! I ended up with the cinghiale pasta, which absolutely blew me away. The ambience of the restaurant was inviting, and the staff were very friendly. I can't recommend this place enough! We will definitely be back for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" Delicious food and an inviting atmosphere! I visited Luce with my partner after hearing great things. We were greeted warmly and sat right away at the bar. I ordered the Pinsa Di Parma, which was fantastic and beautifully presented. My partner had the ribeye steak special, which he raved about. Everything tasted fresh, and you could tell the chefs put thought into every dish. I'd come again anytime! " (*Curated Review*)

" Luce is by far one of the best places I've tried! The freshness of the ingredients was clear from the first bite. I went with the grilled octopus as an app and it was delightful, then the stuffed gnocchi for my entrée. The portion sizes were plenty! The ambience was lovely, perfect for a date or celebration. Truly exceptional all around, highly recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" After numerous recommendations, I finally tried Luce, and wow! From the moment we walked in, the vibe was perfect. It was bustling, yet cozy. Our waiter knew the menu inside out and suggested some excellent options. For entrée, I went with the signature lobster gnocchi—it was rich and flavorful. Each bite tasted authentic and fulfilling. I'll most certainly be returning for another round! " (*Curated Review*)

" Ahh, Luce! It is officially my new favorite Italian restaurant in Norfolk! The appetizers stole the show—especially the calamari. Our main dishes, while they may have taken a bit longer than expected, were definitely worth the wait. The ambiance was charming, and even though it was busy, it felt cozy. The staff was friendly and attentive, really making the experience enjoyable. Can’t wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" Excellent dining experience at Luce! The staff were friendly right from the outset. Our meal was incredible—the prawns in garlic sauce were unreal! The lobster gnocchi was a close second. It’s evident they pay close attention to detail and the authenticity of the food. The space is quite snug, but it adds to the charm. Highly recommend this restaurant for anyone seeking quality Italian food. " (*Curated Review*)
