    Meatball appetizer
    Michelle D.

    Had a birthday dinner last night. Service is top tier as usual, all the meals were delicious and fresh. The fresh warm bread is always amazing! It was a bit loud but I feel like that's the normal when we go.

    Crème Brûlée- soup inside
    Sarah G.

    Lucia's has been my favorite restaurant for many years and overall continues to be one of the best dining experiences in Western New York. The atmosphere is beautiful, the staff is professional, and the bartenders and servers are always excellent. I have so much respect for the owner because he takes pride in the restaurant and treats his employees well, and that is one of the reasons I have remained such a loyal customer. This visit was especially important to me because it was my date's first time there, and I was excited to show him what I have always considered to be the best restaurant in Western New York for many years. We started with the calamari, which was excellent. I ordered the Sea Bass special for $55, which I almost always get, and it was absolutely amazing as usual. It was perfectly prepared and continues to be one of the best dishes they offer. My date ordered the lobster linguine, which I have had many times in the past and always loved. I wanted him to try both dishes, so he ordered it instead of getting steak because of how much I raved about it. While there was a generous amount of lobster, the lobster itself was slightly chewy and the overall dish had a somewhat unusual flavor compared to how exceptional it has been before, I noticed the chewy lobster the last time I ordered this dish a couple months ago, but thought maybe it was just an off night. Dessert was unfortunately the biggest disappointment of the evening. I really wanted a scoop of ice cream, something that is included with most of the desserts, and when I asked, I was told the ice cream was not homemade, which was surprising at this level, so I ordered my favorite go-to dessert, the crème brûlée. Sadly, it was completely undercooked and liquid inside. It was more like soup than custard. I rarely order dessert and was really looking forward to it, so this was extremely disappointing. I then ordered the flourless chocolate cake after being told that while the cake isn't made in hothe whipped cream was homemade. While the cake itself was fine, it did not stand out, and the very small amount of whipped cream did not taste homemade, which added to the overall disappointment. At one point while clearing the table, a busboy dropped a dirty spoon that nearly landed on my date's lap. He caught it just in time. I understand accidents happen, but it was still concerning. I was honestly disappointed because I had built Lucia's up so much to him over the years. I wanted him to experience what I have always believed to be the best restaurant in Western New York, and unfortunately, he left feeling disappointed. I want to emphasize that Lucia's has earned my loyalty over the years because the food and service are usually impeccable. The Sea Bass continues to be outstanding and the staff remains top notch. However, this experience and my last visit have unfortunately taken Lucia's from my number one spot. I have the utmost respect for the owner and everything he has built. This review is simply meant as honest feedback. I hope the dessert quality and consistency can be improved to match the exceptional standard of the rest of the restaurant. One employee that stands out each and every time I am at this restaurant, is the bartender named Ryan. He goes above and beyond to always make me feel so welcome and does an amazing job at making the best cocktails. I will absolutely continue to return and look forward to future visits.

    Cider spritzer

    We dined in for my birthday. It was a beautiful time of day to go, we had a view of the lake out the window and a beautiful sunset. Our server was John A. He was absolutely fantastic. An above and beyond server. He gave us a little scoop of ice cream with a candle while waiting for our to-go dessert; and also his business card for the next time we want to come back! Cider spritzer 8/10 It was a good drink, just wasn't very apple cider flavored to me and definitely did not have a cinnamon sugar rim. Complementary bread 10/10 The bread is fantastic. Fresh and warm. The whipped butter is perfect. And the olive oil/balsamic combo is delicious also. 1/2 dz Prince Edward island oysters 10/10 (special) Perfect, probably the most fresh we've ever had in WNY. The apple cider mignonette was phenomenal, bitter and sweet and a great complement to the oyster. French onion soup 7/10 (special) The soup was good, but I've had better. The broth had a distinct flavor a little different than the typical French onion that I didn't enjoy as much. The crouton had a lovely crunch to it still, and there was plenty of melty cheese on top and onions inside. I also wish that it was a smaller portion, it was a huge crock and can be difficult for one person to eat as an appetizer- definitely big enough to share. 9oz. M-12 A-5 Japanese Wagyu filet 10/10 (special) Medium rare. I have never had wagyu before, and I'm so glad I decided to give it a try! Amazing cut of meat, they do cut it themselves. The cook was so perfect. The crust from the seasoning and sear was fantastic, delicious flavor both inside and out, and I absolutely loved the crispiness of the crust next to the soft tender inside. Pearl onions 10/10 Caramelized beautifully, great flavor. compound butter 10/10 Amazing flavor, and a really great addition to the steak, just adds a touch more savory. Mashed potatoes 10/10 Super simple, and really great flavor. Asparagus 8/10 Average asparagus. I'm not a huge fan of it normally but I tried one, just to see. Short ribs 10/10 Very fall off the bone tender and juicy, with great seasoning, and a really delicious Demi to accompany. U-10 Scallops 10/10 Really good, cooked perfectly, loved the slightly crispy sear on the outside. Parmesan risotto 8/10 The cook on this was perfect, but for the flavor I think it could have been a lot more flavorful. Crème brûlée 10/10 Delicious. The custard was perfect, great flavor, and great consistency. Fresh berries, and a cute little birthday chocolate to garnish!

    Peanut butter pie
    Christopher M.

    Lucia's is one of my favorite restaurants of all time. I go every year for my birthday and am never disappointed! I had the black cherry whiskey sour which was delicious! I love French onion soup and make it a point to try it everywhere I go if it's in the menu and this one ranks at the top of the list. I deviated from the wagyu steak this time and got the scallops and added a stuffed pepper, which was very good, although I think I'll order the steak next time. For my birthday desert I got the peanut butter pie which was phenomenal and the best I've ever had. Jared was our server and was extremely helpful and friendly!

    French onion soup
    Brittany D.

    Always one of my favorite spots especially for a special occasion. Dinner consisted of a HUGE French onion soup with a ton of flavor, burrata caprese salad w/ breaded chicken & of course fried cookie dough for dessert. The ambiance here is great, but it is so loud that we could barely hear our server share the specials. I would have expected nothing less on a Friday night. So glad we booked our reservation months in advance!

    Jay V.

    The food was amazing ! You will not be disappointed. The service was phenomenal.. waitress was great and super nice ! The place just kept going there was a different bar in every room. You do need a reservation though so make one , but definitely a great place !

    Alaskan halibut special
    Shauna R.

    We can't get enough of this spot. For occasions or a fun night out, it can't be beat. The food and service along with specials and the wine menu are to die for. We can't wait to come again soon!

    Chopped Salad
    Bob S.

    I was in town this past weekend and joined a couple who are regulars at Lucia's on the Lake. I was pleasantly surprised by the size of dining room, the sophisticated décor and the incredible Italian-infused menu. I enjoyed meeting co-owner Jay Pasquarella during my visit. He and his partner have managed the restaurant for 10 years. What really impressed me is most of the staff has worked continuously since the restaurant opened. We arrived about 45 minutes early and found a seat at the bar for a large Martini with blue cheese olives. Looking at some of the reviews on Yelp, Lucia's is a favorite of many locals. It's a perfect setting for a special occasion meal, a birthday, an anniversary. When we were first seated, you're served a loaf of complimentary Italian bread, which was warm, crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside. It's served with butter and olive oil with seasonings as a dip. We started our meal with Bang Bang Shrimp and Stuffed Banana Peppers. Two of the favorites I read on Yelp. It was my first-time trying Banana Peppers and I loved them. The peppers are lightly grilled and were mildly spicy. They were stuffed with a three-cheese blend, with Ricotta dominating. Next up one of our guests shared a Chopped Salad with me. Fresh romaine, tomatoes and cucumbers star in this salad. Loved the sweet & sour dressing. For my entrée, I ordered the 12-ounce A5 Certified Japanese Wagyu Ribeye for $139, based on a recommendation from Jay. It should be priced much higher, much like the 32-ounce Prime Tomahawk at $95. It was perfectly seared to a medium doneness. The first few bites were incredibly tender due to the Wagyu's marbling. What surprised me was the amount of fat on my cut of meat. Jay suggested we also order the Gnocchi. It's stuffed with asiago cheese and served with Italian sausage, mushrooms and sun-dried tomatoes. Another guest ordered the classic Alaskan Halibut, her favorite entrée on the menu. For dessert, the Salted Chocolate Caramel Pie was the perfect way to close our meal. As much as I enjoyed our meal and the conversation, the pacing of the meal was seriously off. I will say the restaurant was fully booked and had several large tables. Here is the timeline for our meal: * Sat at table at 7:48pm * Starters served at 8:47pm * Salad served at 8:55pm * Entrées served at 9:46pm * Dessert served at 10:16pm Other than our server telling us that the kitchen was really busy, we had no idea the service was going to take so long. For such a high-end restaurant, I was disappointed by the service. That was reflected in my four-star rating.

    Despite being 3 minutes from home, we haven't been here since the first year they opened, probably because people are always saying it's impossible to get a reservation; Tuesday at 5pm, however, no problem at all. Our reservation was for bar seating, we were seated at a high top in the bar area. We had bang bang calamari as an appetizer and a couple of craft cocktails. Dinner was amazing, plenty of delicious food, the presentation was beautiful (I only snuck 2 pics cause put your phone away!) You know I love leftovers for lunch the next day. They had everything timed perfectly, get you in and out in 90 minutes without feeling rushed. We'll be back soon.

    Jambalaya
    MaryAnn A.

    We have driven many times past Lucia's on our way to and from Jamestown NY to Buffalo. Until we watched Speil the Wine with Kevin LoVullo we really didn't know much about it. Once we watched his segments we became curious. It does take a while to get a reservation and after going there last evening for an early dinner, I can see why. The moment we walked in the place is aesthetically inviting as are the greeters, wait staff, bartenders, servers, etc. Our server Jared Gugino was one of the nicest informative servers I think we've ever had. Upon Kevin's recommendation, he mentioned that we should ask for the the owner on which we did. Jay Pasquarella the owner was so friendly and gracious. He stopped by to check in out us a few times even though the place was packed. Lastly, may I mention the food? I had the blackened chicken with asparagus risotto, amazing! My husband had jambalaya. As large as his portion was, he almost licked the plate except he knew he had carrot cake on its way to celebrate his birthday. I had to take half of mine home. I'm looking forward to finishing the leftover. One thing we both noticed is that our food came out hot which is not always the case at many restaurants so there was no need to hurry to try and finish. We will definitely be back again! Thank you Jared and Jay for a lovely dining experience.

    6 years and probably hundreds of visits later, my initial 5 star rating still stands. Food, service, and atmosphere - always top notch, and the view is just absolutely incredible. Can't get a reservation? Show up before 5pm and grab some bar seats and you're bound to meet some friendly regulars who are always striking up interesting conversations. Our forever favorites include the bang bang calamari and pork belly, though the meatballs, truffle fries, and stuffed peppers (get it with the fried egg!) are always great too. If you like shrimp cocktail, you'll be in for a real treat with their enormous colossal shrimp. All the soups and salads are always fresh and delicious, especially the French onion soup and the goat cheese salad or the burrata salad, depending on season. And if you just want a snack to nibble on - the cheese/charcuterie/bread boards are great options too. Our go-to steak entrees are filet mignon and N.Y. strip and if you enjoy truffle, make sure you get the truffle butter! I also love the short ribs and the halibut, and occasionally when I feel like a carb-filled meal - the lobster linguine is my go-to (with a side of lump crab meat). We normally don't have any room for dessert but the Brimley will forever be my favorite... only if they would serve it in 1/4 of the size, I'd probably order it all the time! My current favorite is the lemon ricotta cake, as we're obsessed with everything lemon. It's light and not overly sweet, which is a perfect way to end the meal! There's a recent addition on the side of the building with a second bar and huge windows. Seating is first come first serve and offers a limited menu (apps and salads etc.). The view is even more breathtaking and there's live music on weekends. There's a reason why this place is always packed and seemingly impossible to get a reservation. It's fantabulous!!!

    Bread and oil
    Denise L.

    Really good food and our fourth/fifth time here. But...the reason we probably won't go back. It's usually pretty loud, but doable. This time it was just too much. We were seated in the back room, which we initially thought was great. There was a table for eight right next to us. A table of four in front and behind us. The noise level in the room was so much, that it ruined our birthday dinner celebration. We kept trying to ignore it, but the table for eight was yelling across to be heard. We couldn't hear ourselves talking to each other. The waitress even had to get down between us to explain the specials. She apologized at the end for how loud it was. The food was very good, but I've had excellent filet at a few other establishments in town. If I'm going out for an upscale meal, I really want a relatively quiet place. I don't mind hustle and bustle near the bar, but we were two rooms away. Maybe they could make that back room tables for two or four only???

    Salmon special
    Michele C.

    Amazing dining experience. Our first time at this beautiful restaurant. Located on Lake Erie, with a view of the sunset that you cannot imagine - but the real joy happened when we entered Lucia's. We felt welcomed - by the hostess; the bartender ; the server; and the manager! The food was delicious. I had the salmon special: Asian flare with fresh vegetables. It was incredible. Lucia's will be one of our favorite restaurants to frequent! Thank you for an amazing dining experience!!

    Do they take walk ins or just reservations?

    They do, but it's not guaranteed they will be able to seat you. I've been told they are full for the night but have been able to get a spot at the bar where you can also order food. Reservations are definitely the way to go!

    The older photos show a 1lb lobster tail dinner. Do they still have these??? I write to the owners and they never replied. Thanks!!

    I see Jayb answered you, but they also have lobster add- on to dinners

    Where's the beef on the menu? Where's the lobster tail?

    We have 4 steaks and Braised short ribs all in the menu.

    The venue itself is of course still very new, clean and modern. That can often mean high noise…read morelevels as others have noted, modern restaurant construction seems to put acoustics at the bottom of the priority list. That said, I did not find it overly loud, just loud enough where you had to raise your voice slightly. Enough about that. Johnson's Landing has a Lenten fish fry special, $20 for a full fish fry with sides, and this includes one of their specialty beers. This is a good deal to get a craft beer included with your fish fry. I actually ordered it to go and enjoyed the beer while waiting for the fish to take out. It was a very solid fish dinner, the batter was crispy, not oily. The fish was fresh, all of the sides were good, even the rye bread was a nice hearty thick cut of rye. The mac salad featured tuna, which I do like. And the fries were hot and tasty. The fish itself was not huge but was big enough for us. Every component of the fish fry dinner was on point. The barmaid was efficient and friendly, I did not have to wait. My only complaint is that they do not list beer prices on their menu, which was fine this time since it was included with the meal, but would prevent me from enjoying a stop on the way home for a beer or two. I think it is a sneaky practice, but strangely I do note prices on their website, and guess what? All draft beers are $8 including Labatt Blue Light, unless the website is now outdated. ($8 for Labatt's!! Holy Moly!) I can see why it is not on the printed menu. I really don't like when there is not full price transparency, thus four stars instead of five. However I wholeheartedly endorse the value and quality of the Lenten fish fry special.

    We went to the Mansard Inn for Easter Brunch. We had been there years ago for dinner and thought it…read morewas decent, and we had heard it had been refurbished since then. Unfortunately, that really wasn't our experience. The biggest issue was cleanliness. The entire place felt tired and dirty. The carpets looked heavily worn and stained, the booths had food stuck in the crevices, and overall it just didn't feel clean or well maintained. The dishes and drinkware didn't help. The coffee mugs, which were once white, were badly stained and dingy looking. My mother actually rubbed something off hers, and the waitress explained that it "wasn't dirty, just stained." Not exactly the best first impression, especially at $55 per person for brunch. We ordered mimosas after that, hoping things would improve, but even the champagne glasses looked questionable and were filled to noticeably different levels. Then the food arrived, and unfortunately it only got worse. Everything was served "family style," but there was no menu or explanation of what was coming. The meal felt random and poorly executed. Some highlights included: * A single store-bought pastry cut into pieces * Mac and cheese that tasted like boxed Velveeta * Deep-fried breakfast sausages * Ham that resembled warmed-up lunch meat * Three shrimp total for two people * A bowl of stew meat that felt completely out of place * An Eggs Benedict attempt that simply didn't work To make matters worse, some of the silverware and plates appeared dirty as well. By the end, we honestly couldn't wait to leave. The automatic $20 holiday service charge on top of the already expensive brunch really sealed the experience for us. Sadly, this was one of the most disappointing restaurant experiences we've had in quite a while.

    Overpriced, Unsanitary, and Unprofessional - A $500 Disaster…read more ​I rarely leave negative reviews, but our recent experience was truly appalling. We visited with a party of 11, including my 88-year-old grandfather. Despite the high price point--our bill was nearly $500--the standards of service and cleanliness were non-existent. ​The Issues: ​Accessibility & Cleanliness: There were zero handicap parking spots available. Inside, the restaurant was filthy; there was old food and trash under our booth, and the bathroom was in a state of neglect with toilet paper left on dirty surfaces rather than the holder. ​The Environment: We were greeted by stained, soiled paper menus and a swarm of fruit flies that stayed with us throughout the entire meal. ​Poor Service: We waited 50 minutes for basic dinner salads. My grandfather's coffee took 45 minutes to arrive. The waitress appeared visibly annoyed that she had to walk around our booth to serve us. ​Cheap Substitutes: For the price of a strip steak, you expect quality. Instead, we were served Aldi-brand steak sauce. When I asked for A1, I was handed a filthy, food-smeared bottle that was nearly empty. ​The "Refill" Incident: Our initial drinks were served half-empty. When we asked for refills, the waitress told us to finish our current glasses because they weren't free and she "didn't want to charge us." In the end, we were charged for them anyway. ​Overpriced Food: The French Onion soup is served in tiny metal bowls, not crocks. To top it off, we paid $22 for two "slices" of cheesecake to go--one of which was a literal sliver of cake. ​While the food itself was decent, no meal is worth this level of disrespect and lack of hygiene. I will never recommend this establishment.

    Met friends here at 1pm, had cocktails and lunch. The place is very clean and not overly busy at…read morelunchtime. Had the house frozen lime margaritas $13.00. Good size drink and very tasty. Chips and salsa were brought to our table. They brought 3 baskets and 3 salsa. They came back and replenished the salsa. On to lunch, I had the Lunch chimichanga $14.00. I chose the shredded chicken fried, it's covered with cheese sauce & I got the Mexican rice, beans and house sales. The house salad is lettuce, pico de gallo, sour cream and guacamole. Have been here before and will definitely come back. Our waitress Amanda A was very attentive and was also bi-lingual, she gave us the correct pronunciation of the restaurant and its meaning.

    Absolutely incredible food and equally as impressive service…read more We stopped by for lunch and we grabbed a seat in their large , well decorated dining room and within a few moments someone was by to get our drink request and soft touch the table. We were chatting with our little yelper and she had told the waitress she wanted chicken. Yes I know, chicken fingers in a Mexican restaurant.. our amazing waitress got those moving asap, and if you have a hangry kid. You know how important that is. We got the south of the border lunch and the steak fajitas. Those plates came out heaping with some of the best food we've had in some time. The chicken was perfect as was the steak. I literally couldn't have been more impressed with the meal. The only negative was the beans. Maybe it was us but we just felt they were too "soupy" but definitely not something that would negate how fantastic this was. Definitely not going to pass this gem again when we're in Hamburg.

    This is a great restaurant to visit every 10 years. It's a laid-back place with an okay menu…read more We went on a Monday night and noticed the daily specials said 1/2 price apps! So we got ourselves the spinach and artichoke dip as well as the crab Rangoon egg rolls - turns out the egg rolls were a special which did not count for the 1/2 off. The dip was fine and I liked the egg rolls a lot. We then had French onion soups which were also fine. We ended up both ordering the Gorgonzola streak Alfredo. This was a major disappointment. The sauce on this pasta was indeed a white sauce, but that was where its resemblance to Alfredo sauce ended. Alfredo should be buttery and thick, cream and cheesy. This was as thin as milk and flavorless. I ate my steak off the top and was done with it. I'm going this place 3 stars because the staff was all wonderful. The server I had was so nice and the host and bartender seemed really friendly with everyone who was in and out while we were there.
