Chef Kenny Gilbert: All Primi is made in house. Awesome clean flavors. Spaghetti with Tuna Confit and Rapini is delicious.
Eater: A table at Lucia is one of the toughest ressies in Dallas, not b/c they're saving space for snobby VIPs, but b/c David Uygur's homespun Italian resto only serves 16 tables/night. [Eater 38 Member]
Dallas Observer: Milk chocolate and buttermilk panna cotta with dark chocolate budino, olive oil, and almonds. Enough said.

Robyn Harman: Brunch. Mimosas. Yes. All their dishes are amazing, and they have gluten free options too.
Heather Campbell: $1 Mimosas & Bellinis for brunch on Saturday and Sunday
Brian P: The Taverna Focaccia sounds like an odd combo, but it works & the chili oil pulls it all together. Good risottos and the green & white pasta with Truffle oil is awesome.
Diana Koen: I had the Four-Cheese Ravioli in alfredo sauce and it was so delicious. The lunch portions are ample and would definitely recommend.
Phil Alcorn: The lasagna is to die for. Be sure to order that in addition to the Maggiano's House Salad. The bacon & blue cheese crumbles atop the salad is sooo good. For something sweet, try the crème brulé.
Moor Of Dundee Leza Mesiah: Absolutely my favorite Italian Restaurant in Texas thus far.
