    Food so interesting. Complex, multi-latin influenced, new, bright, and uniquely delicious. Server was charming and helpful. The vibe was very fun. A bit loud, but so were we after a bottle of wine. Love this place and recommend highly.

    Overall amazing. Price point is on high side considering potion sizes but food was excellent and well presented. Our waiter was phenomenal as well! If you have hearing loss I do not recommend Lucina. Way too noisy as there are not any booths or other ways to mitigate noise.

    The originality of the menu and delicious execution were present as always. knowledgable and attentive service. the Mofongo - pork belly - was incredible. a great departure from the big, corporate, downtown places. this is a neighborhood gem. Looking forward to returning soon. Only knock is the music is a tad loud, complicating conversation.

    Unfortunately the experience spoiled a birthday celebration. They did attempt to make amends but that gesture was filled with excuses that under the circumstances just made the apologies seem insincere. Ambiance is great, food was flavorful but the overall execution fell terribly flat. As I mentioned we spoke with the manager and he attempted to make amends.
