    What a wonderful venue. The menu makes you become a regular. The zucchini fries are addictive. The Bibb lettuce salad was perfectly dressed. The swordfish which I fear ordering is so often overcooked. Not here and they validated how we wanted it. Best part was a hug from our favorite server, Danise

    Food quality not the same level as in the past. Appetizers in particular had no flavor. Disappointing given past great experiences.

    It was an exceptional experience from start to finish! The staff was incredibly attentive, friendly, and professional, ensuring every detail was perfect. The food was absolutely delicious, beautifully presented, and served promptly. I has the Halibut special.

    Alyssa/Ailissa(?) was amazing! She’s a star. Kind, courteous and understanding that a group of women friends wanted to talk, eat and drink. She provided the perfect amount of care and attention, which was still above and beyond. Our meal was delicious, as always. LouCas has been our “middle point” for our friends gatherings since graduating from Seton Hall 40 years ago but it had been a while since we’d been there. Excellent as always!!!!

    SAT 1/4/25__It's been over 2 years since my guests and I have dined here at LouCas. Since Covid,we got away from dining out as often. The menu has been updated but basically still the same place we always loved. Our server (Marcel G) was superb -- very attentive, professional, and his memory for all of the daily specials was pretty amazing! I'm very glad our reservation was at 5:15, because the place was packed by 6:45. Grilled octopus appetizer was perfect, the Sesame encrusted Tuna was a daily special and melted like butter in the mouth! The daily special - stuffed Bronzini - was exceptional as well. My dish was the Veal Millanese and because I was the only one at the table who did NOT get a daily special, that disqualified me from receiving a free house salad (which I think is a disappointment because my entree was also over $30). I also added a side of penne with tomato sauce (very good) and took home a slice of the famous "Dark Side of the Moon" chocolate cake. For 3 of us, total bill was $161.44 and we paid the well deserved tip in cash. Thanks for a great evening!

    The food was okay—somewhat on the bland side. But the value was fantastic as was the service.

    Lucas is cinsistent when it comes to time reservations, service and most importantly is the food. Our experience has never been any different. We will always come back and will refer to our friends.
