Ristorante Lucano Italian Restaurant ·$$$

Ristorante Lucano is a fine example of Italian cuisine in Rochester. A family run restaurant by Chuck Formoso and his wife JoAnn, it is an ideal place to relish the decadent Italian deliciousness. Walls embellished with artsy Italian motifs and stucco finish adds to the authenticity of the place. Italian staples from the likes of insalates, antipasti and secondi piatti are served on the menu prepared with fresh ingredients. Their wine list is exquisite and the reserve selection is a must try. The specialty cocktails are infused with Italian ingredients, which makes them distinctive from regular cocktails. Touted to be a suitable location for a date, this place is a splendid location for relishing the European country's delights.
