What People Are Saying About Lucy Restaurants

In Short – Yellow, red and orange-colored curtains dress the dining room, decorated with photographs of dancing Spanish women, accompanied by a mix of Latin sounds, like meringue and salsa. The restaurant prides itself on the sangria, and offers separate bar, lunch, dinner and dessert menus that feature Ecuadorian shrimp, churrasco (grilled beef), barbacoa (lamb), rainbow ceviche and sweet plantains. The chefs also dish out homemade ice creams and sorbets.

Just Wonderful

by cynabon

I just had dinner with a friend at Lucy and I was extremely pleased. The service was exceptional and not slow at all like the other two reviewers stated. If anything the servers were overly attentive. We got our food in a decent amount of time and did not wait long at all. The food was great and so were the drinks. In my book this restaurant gets an A in my book.

  • Pros: Great service, exquisite decor
  • Cons: Wish the dessert menu was more extensive.

Good food, slow service

by banjo112

Recently checked this place out for a friend's birthday. There were 8 of us, and were promptly seated at a spacious table. The food was pretty good, but the service was so slow. Even ordering a beer took like 30 minutes! There seemed to be enough servers/helpers, but as the previous reviewer stated, they were disorganized.

Under new management, the food could flourish. Good food, great location, slow as hell service. Dinner took 3 hours!

  • Pros: Good food and location
  • Cons: Not terrible, but slow service

disaster

by foxtrophy

Amaturish,sadly and badly run the timing in the kitchen must be chaotic.

long waits between courses two people order the same thing at the same table

can get delivery five minutes apart...and the food is uneven,it's a pretty room

but the incompetent management is glaring,the place sorely needs

a Chef but not just someone who can concoct recipes,someone who can

organize a kitchen.drinks come with agonizing delays this can only be a result

of poor preparation and haphazard setup,getting fed is a choir,nothing seems to go right

I've been there three times hoping against hope for an improvement mostly because

i like the decor and it is covenient.

i spent twenty years working in the restaurant business and seldom saw a poorer run

operation the best thing that i can say about this place is that there are plenty of restaurants within two blocks.

  • Pros: decor
  • Cons: sevice
