It was nice to receive a very warm welcome from the waitress the moment we walked through the door, and she could not have been more helpful and efficient throughout the evening. The food was as expected of the highest quality, and we will certainly be regular visitors in future after our first visit.

Was great. Strikes me as the best Italian restaurant in the area :) Ambience marked down slightly as it was full and very loud. The sound seemed to echo a lot. Which is fine unless you have someone hard of hearing in your party - which we did unfortunately.

Really enjoyed our first experience of Lucianos. However we were slightly disappointed by the food- calamari batter looked undercooked and bit tasteless compared to others I’ve tasted. Beef Raghu also lacked some flavour and not enough mushrooms. Hope you find this feedback useful as we are so pleased to have such a lovely restaurant in Warsash.

Excellent service from start to finish. Greeted and shown to our table straight away. We had a fussy eater in our party and Franco went out of his way to accommodate her. The food was excellent and just the right amount. Very reasonable prices too. Prosecco was a little on the high side nearly £28 a bottle but it was very nice. Lovely atmosphere. it was very busy when we were there but couldn’t fault the service at all. Definitely be going again

We found Lucianos to be excellent. The service was excellent and the food great. I found the chicken in the Pollo Milanese dish a little overcooked for my taste, but it was still very nice as was my starter. My wife was very pleased with her choices and the bill was also reasonable. We shall certainly be coming back.

We had a wonderful meal last Saturday. It was our first visit and we were surprised at how good the restaurant looked being part of a popular pub. The food was excellent and my friends both enjoyed their menu selections of aubergine & mushrooms for their starters and chicken with cheese sauce and meatballs with spaghetti for mains. My calamari and lasagne were amongst the best I have had. The service was excellent and efficient throughout. One minor niggle was that one of my friends was disappoint there wasn't tiramisu on the desert menu. All in all a very enjoyable evening out and I would definitely recommend Lucianos and will return.

Lovely authentic Italian meal, nice surroundings and very attentive service. Atmosphere a little lacking as the restaurant was quite quiet, but better that way than being packed and noisy. Only one thing spoilt the evening- about 9.40 the waitress advised we had to leave by 10 but that we were welcome to move into the adjacent pub if we weren’t finished. Came back again at about 9.50 and reminded us and asked if she could bring the bill for settlement now. Luckily we were just about finished anyway so it didn’t matter but if we had booked later than 7.30 start we may not have. The waitress was placed in an embarrassing situation having to approach all occupied tables similarly, and we felt the restaurant should have made us aware of this strict closure policy at the time of booking. We do not expect to be rushed out of a restaurant especially on a weekend evening!

As I don’t use salt, I noticed a bit too much salt for my taste in my main course. My husband found his main course delicious. We like the food choices in Luciano’s as it isn’t just pub grub - which we also enjoy - just not all the time.

Went on a 50% Thursday. We were the only ones there until we were paying the bill, so no atmosphere. Not sure why as the food is lovely and so is the wait staff. Certainly worth a try on a Thursday. I do think the venue should have more days in the week when they do 50% off in order to draw more people in. And get more social media presence. Would recommend.

Lovely evening on our first visit. First drinks were a bit slow arriving and it seemed like a long time in between courses, but think we’ve all been conditioned by ‘chain’ restaurants to be served quick, eat quick and out for the next set of punters. The menu had a nice variety to suit all palates and the food was good. The staff were very friendly and made us feel welcome, the decor is lovely and the ambience was warm and vibrant at the same time. We will be back at some point in the future

We have been here twice. Service and ambiance were very good. The first time the food was excellent and we couldn't wait to come back. On the second occasion we resisted the temptation to have the same again. We had red pepper soup to start, which was very good, but we ordered a veggie risotto as a main. Maybe it was our mistake, that we didn't read the description well enough, but it tasted totally bland. I tried pepper to see if that would improve it, but I left about half of it and would not order it again. It is a pity because I had a veggie pizza on my first visit which was absolutely fantastic. Probably the best pizza I have ever eaten.

Nice decor but no windows, which will be weird in the summer. Very busy so good atmosphere, but not enough staff (could be impact of COVID). Calamari lacked taste as did the tomato salad but main course was good, although some veggies would have been nice. £9.50 for a glass of wine is extortionate! We were looking forward to dessert, but the two we wanted had ‘just run out’ so we left. When booking, we were asked if it was for a special occasion (which it was), but no mention made during our visit so why ask?? Lovely to have a Italian restaurant close by, but needs some improvement. Will give it another go and hope we are more impressed second time around.

First week of Luciano’s opening and the atmosphere lacked a bit. The food was tasty but small portions. We could have done with much more vegetables. The service was good.
