if you like authentic Italian, this place is for you. There are many different pasta dishes to choose from and great salads, breads and desserts as well.
Service was amazing and outdoor seating is a plus during applicable seasons.
Great little spot off Burnside. No reservations and limited inside seating so I would plan to get their during less busy times or be willing to wait during the dinner rush.
The waitstaff was fantastic and recommended some very good wine.
I’m a big fan of the fact that they offer half portions!
Unfortunately the gnocchi left something to be desired. Still a great experience : )
10/10. Great service, amazing pasta and other plates. Wonderful variety, fair prices and authentic. Get the Rabbit ravioli! We’ll be back!
We have been to Luce maybe 10 times now. Every time we go we have a great time. Food is beyond delicious and the place is very charming. We usually let them choose what to eat and they never let us down. Prices are pretty cheap. Its worth getting halfs and sharing more plates with others! The panna cotta is maybe one of the best I’ve ever had. I would recommend showing up early if you don’t want to wait for a table!
It’s hit or miss here. The rigatoni with red pepper sauce was the finest I’ve had. The radicchio supli (arancini) was delightful. It’s one of the $2 small plates so go crazy and order more than one! The orecchiette and farro Parmesan pie were too salty. The summer squash topped with a (lot of) parsley pesto was very bitter.
This is my all-time fave small plates dining experience!
My friend and I ordered three apps, salads, and half plate pastas. We shared bites of everything. So delish!
The bottled wine selection is one of the best in the city. The staff is super knowledgeable if you need some direction.
I think it's easier to grab a table earlier. We were there at 5:00 and got in.
Had a perfect meal here the evening before thanksgiving!! Everything was delicious— the wine, apps, pasta, salad, dessert. Great chic yet unpretentious vibes, small but mighty menu, perfect service. Pricing totally reasonable- love the half portion options for all salad and pasta so you can try whatever and not feel like you’re going too crazy. Will be dreaming about Luce til we can return to the PNW 💞
Absolutely wonderful food and service. We will be back!
The food here is rustic and comforting. It makes me want to retire next to the Adriatic sea... there is warm octopus potato salad that is so humble, and one of the best dishes in the city! Small bites are a great way to start and quickly be excited by what is yet to come. Parmesan and farro pie will have you searching for the recipe. The wine list is extensive and primarily Italian. Salty briny, flavors of the sea are complimented by fresh and simple dishes that you will be thinking about weeks if not years later! Love, love, love this place!
Favorite restaurant in Portland. Love the atmosphere and simple flavors. Very very delicious, great for dates
