The story of food is the story of friendship. When you combine Irish conviviality with the irrepressible Italian nature, it’s always going to be a good thing. Chefs Ross Lewis and Luciano Tona have been friends through Michelin starred food, and tall tales, for many years. At Osteria Lucio they unite their love of Irish and Italian food with the very best of produce, from both countries.

Review summary
AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Osteria Lucio offers a "fantastic experience" with "amazing food" and "flawless service." Known for its "interesting and enticing menu," it's not your "typical Italian." The suckling pig and lobster pasta are highlights. Guests appreciate the "relaxed, comfortable" ambiance and "friendly, attentive" staff. While prices are premium, the quality and atmosphere make it a "highly recommended" dining spot.

Lovely restaurant the staff were very friendly and the service was excellent. The food was very tasty and very different to what one would expect from the typical Italian dishes you get in other restaurants. Would have liked a better selection from the cocktails menu. The wine was delicious but pricey at €42 a bottle. Overall a great night Will go again but only for special occasions as the menu is quite pricey for regular visit

The food is authentic Italian. One of the only restaurants in Dublin that knows what al dente pasta is. The servers are wonderfully attentive and you are never left waiting for a refill or a chance to ask for something more. Being all the self discipline you have to say no to the tiramisu and the espresso martini. Yes, the space is a little quirky but it reminds me of an outrageous wine tasting I had in Umbria where we ate in the cellar next to the wine barrels! All around exquisite!
