Alpharetta's Best

Luci's

When thinking of a special place to dine, Luci’s Steakhouse is first to come to mind. Not only does Luci’s exude elegance but the menu and extensive wine list both are part of the dining experience that Luci’s is known for. Our table enjoyed melt-in-your-mouth, Wagyu carpaccio and grilled octopus to start, followed by a crisp Caesar salad. We then indulged in mouth-watering, double-cut lamb chops, bone-in ribeye, and petite filet. Prime steaks are wet-aged with dry-aging in-house from Allen Brothers of Chicago & Buckhead meat. Popular accompaniments include basil corn, Brussels sprouts, parmesan truffle fries, and lobster mac & cheese.

I would be remiss if I didn’t mention the gracious owners, Polo and Gigi Castro who floated around the dining room greeting each table, making everyone dining in their establishment feel special. Named for his mother, Polo takes great pride in the white-glove service and quality food at Luci's.

Polo has an extensive background managing high-end restaurants, including Buckhead Life, Pricci, Chops Lobster Bar, Pampas and Frankies where he was director of operations for 17 years. His partner in life and the restaurant is his wife, Gigi who designed the interior. “My goal was to create a functional, inviting, warm and welcoming environment,” says Gigi. “We have opened many other restaurants and have the passion for taking care of our guests. We have the best quality food with unparalleled service.” Gigi has worked in some fine dining restaurants like Rumi’s Kitchen, Lucianos, Cabernet Steakhouse, Pampas Steakhouse and Frankie’s Steakhouse where she was an Event Planner Coordinator.

Much of their staff has worked with them in the past with considerable training in luxury service. "Our service, presentation and taste in every dish reflect our core values in which we believe strongly," says Polo. "Our mission is to exceed each one of our guest’s expectations. We strive to make your experience an unforgettable one from the moment you walk into
our restaurant to the moment you walk out. We believe in three core values: compassion, respect, and excellence."

Special occasion or not, Luci’s Steakhouse will not disappoint, and you will leave with a smile on your face from a lovely dining experience. Private dining rooms for parties or important business meetings are fully staffed for top service.
