Best Cozy Restaurants in Point Breeze

If you are looking for a true hug this is your spot. What a surprise as you walk into the gorgeous bar and then to the back of the restaurant where you are transported to a lodge, cabin, a time travel where pubs began? The immense drink menu had us gobsmacked at the banana old fashioned and festive cocktails, but vinos on tap? Pierogis were legit homemade and the bison meatloaf was a chef kiss and the hug you need on a cold night. Dessert was a true treat and the French press was smooth and delicious.

We took my mom to Golden Gai for her birthday. She loved it and had a great time. We were happy to find the foods that we loved so much in Japan earlier this year. The shrimp tempura was our favorite. The shrimp were huge and we loved the sauce that went with them. So flavorful! We also really enjoyed the gyoza (dumplings), spicy tuna roll and udon noodles with chicken. While we were dining, we were talking about the dishes we had and asking questions about things that were slightly different. The sushi chef heard us and told us more about the food and why it was done the way they do it. It was very interesting and he seemed like a great guy. There were so many good dishes and drinks on the menu that we’ll definitely be back to try more things.

We had new years brunch here and it was my first time. They were short staffed so I was expecting long delays but the waitress was fantastic, and very knowledgeable, and there were no delays. We shared the pierogis and the salad to start and both were fantastic. Everything is made in house and from local ingredients. The burger, chicken sandwich and pork chop were also top notch. It’s clear they are passionate about quality. We will definitely be back!

Great food and good service. Well taken care of and out in an hour on a Saturday night. Cocktails were very well made and Vegan options were offered for my wife. Will be back!

I met a friend for dinner on a Thursday night and we had a great time catching up. The food is delicious, the service prompt, warm, and friendly, and the atmosphere cozy. Parking can be somewhat of a bear, but Lucca's is worth that relatively small inconvenience.
