Cafe Luce - Italian Restaurant & Wine Bar - Manhattan (NY)

5 /5 John Main: My wife and daughter and I came for brunch on Saturday early afternoon. Collectively we had Cacio e pepe, limoncello, and arrabiata with an added burrata (definitely do this)! The food was super quick and insanely good! Note to Cafe Luce- your menu is phenomenal! we would love to see a pasta fight as we had a tough decision to make so why not make it there in a fight! Sorry quick edit. I meant pasta flight but my typing is not great lol

5 /5 Leila Habibi: A super lovely and cozy spot, with friendliest staff! You won’t believe how narrow the floors are and yet how these guys manage to create a perfect experience for the guests. We loved our both dishes and the focaccia bread. Creamiest Alfredo I’ve had in North America, fr! So happy to have found this gem near our place, won’t have to travel all the way to west village for some great fresh homemade pasta! Thank you Cafe Luce, we WILL be back

5 /5 M.: I noticed this restaurant 2 years ago while in the city on a work trip. It piqued my interest because it looked automatically Italian and I was just back from Italy. Kept the location and FINALLY made it back! Food is DELICIOUS! Charming interior. Delicious St. Germain spritzer. Very eager to go back to the city and dine here again. There are so many dishes I want to try. GO!!

5 /5 Marla McCaffrey: It was my grandson‘s birthday. We had the most fabulous meal. The pasta was incredible. The service was fantastic. We can’t wait to come back again. If we’re ever in this neighborhood again as we are from Dallas, Texas!

3 /5 Steph W: Review for Brunch Ambiance (3/5): The establishment is split into two narrow rooms, divided by a wall. The interior is extremely cramped between the tables and thereby felt tight despite an empty dining experience during a Sunday brunch. Seats feel tight. There were approximately 3 parties in each of the rooms. The inside is cozy and nicely decorated. Service (5/5): Due to the number of dining patrons, I felt like our service was on-point and we were helped often. They forgot the soft drink we ordered twice. They were polite in waiting to give us the check while we loitered and chatted. Brunch 11am-4p (3/5): I was not impressed with either dish we ordered. Eggs Royale: A fancy eggs Benedict. The salmon cuts had an after taste. The side salad was refreshing and well-seasoned. Croque Madame: The sandwich was hefty/filling. The gravy on top lacked something. The fingerling potatoes had a nice flavor of rosemary.
