  • Neighbourhood gem
  • Good for special occasions
  • Great for creative cocktails
Formerly known as Locale Ristorante, the new owners have decided to change the name to Lucio's.
In the heart of the charming and diverse suburban town of Closter, New Jersey, there lies a culinary gem named Lucio's. This eatery is more than just a restaurant; it celebrates Italian tradition, love, and gastronomic excellence.

Lucio's was born from the passion and vision of a local family, culinary virtuosos with roots deeply embedded in the rich taste of Italy. Inspired by the flavors of the extraordinary Italian kitchen and the warmth of Sunday family gatherings, The Mazon family dreamt of creating a place that served exquisite Italian cuisine and embodied the essence of the Italian way of life.

    We recently hosted my mom’s retirement party at Lucios, and it was absolutely perfect! From the moment we arrived, the staff was incredibly attentive, ensuring everything ran smoothly. The ambiance was elegant yet inviting, making it the ideal setting for a special celebration. The food was outstanding—every dish was beautifully presented and full of flavor. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about the lamb chops. The service was exceptional; the team went above and beyond to accommodate our needs and made sure everyone felt taken care of. If you’re looking for a place to host a special event or just enjoy a fantastic meal, I highly recommend Lucios.

    The owner is so accommodating. He made sure we were sitting at a table that made us comfortable. The servers knew everything on the menu and all the specials. They were very attentive. The food was delicious! This is a wonderful place to bring family and friends. Lucios is one of my favorite restaurants. Gloria
