Best Lunch Restaurants in Ladera Heights

The food was phenomenal and there wasn't a bad wine. The atmosphere was cozy. We will be going back

Busy time of the year but the staff handled it well. Food is always good and consistent. Definitely get a reservation so you don't have to wait too long. Our server was very nice and positive considering how busy it was, very professional.

Our server (sorry- don’t have her name!) was excellent. She had bright red lipstick/ dark hair (if that helps!). Great experience all around.

We had eaten at 2 other M'Tucci restaurants and this was our first time at the one closest to us (Coors and Montano, NW). We decided to try their Wed. night special at the bargain price of $30/person. We made a reservation about an hour ahead and were glad that we had. The restaurant was quite full. There were no choices on the special and no substitutions. I probably would not have ordered any of the dishes on the special but we were pleasantly surprised and pleased. The appetizer was a bruschetta topped with mussels. My husband adored this. I thought it was very good. It came with a small glass of a pleasant chardonnay. The main course was hangar steak with roast potatoes. I asked for mine to be cooked medium rare, I was told, you couldn't specify how you wanted it cooked, on the special. Our steaks came out medium rare and were exceptionally tender and flavorful. This was served with a small glass of Cabernet. Dessert was a pumpkin swirl cheesecake. This was the weakest of the courses but we still ate every bite. It was served with a moscato dessert wine. All the portions were small but we didn't leave hungry. Service was excellent in spite of how busy it was. We definitely will return for the Wed. special and will try other things as well. This may become our go to local restaurant.

Very good food. Never disappoints! Beautiful restaurant
