About the restaurant

If you are seeking not just a great meal, but a great dining experience, you need look no further than Luca’s Ristorante Somerset. Tucked away on Rt. 27 between Princeton and New Brunswick, Luca’s Somerset is an oasis of authentic regional Italian cuisine. Offering modern adaptations of traditional dishes from Ischia, here you can enjoy hand-cut ravioli stuffed with Chef Andrea’s latest mouth-watering combinations, a selection of fish entrees so fresh that they evoke the Mediterranean Sea, or a filet of such quality that it is paralleled only by the accoutrement that accompany it. Our dining room décor is uniquely Ischitana, and goes to show that here at Luca’s Somerset, we understand that the difference is in the details. When you are done with it all, take in the cozy setting with a delicious dessert made from scratch, and the perfect cup of locally micro-roasted espresso or cappuccino. So please, be our guest.

I’ve gotten back to this restaurant few times already and with the new manager Audrey, She is doing a great job. She is transparent and helpful to her staff. Food is always good and delicious and they try to accommodate any requests if it can be done…grateful for that. Ambience is so much better including the bar area. Looking forward to coming back.

Our group coincidentally made reservations on a menu change evening. I was determined to get the pasta since it is made fresh. My meal was amazing. Huge portion size. Same goes for my entire group. I know I will be back. Great food and atmosphere.
