Lucia Tucked into a historic building in the Bishop Arts District, Lucia is a small, chef-owned Italian restaurant.

Chef David and wife Jennifer Uygur’s menu adheres to the Italian approach --- antipasti, pasta/primi, main and dessert. The menu changes seasonally but usually has a risotto, gnocchi, seafood and game. Everything is made in-house, from the crusty Italian bread and the fresh pasta to the cured meats on his signature salami plate.

Uygur is creating food that is his own interpretation of the Italian cuisine. He cooks his meats and proteins slowly, braising until their flavour and texture become ripe and sultry. Last time we tried the Tajarin with brodo Parmigiano and grated black truffle and the Ricotta ravioli with black trumpet mushrooms. It was wonderful.

Walk into this restaurant and you feel happy, it is like an adventure. What surprises will the menu hold? What kind of journey will our palates take? Uygur’s cooking is above all about deliciousness. Vision, artistry, technique and incredible talent, along with the warm hospitality make this restaurant truly extraordinary.
